I got to fly home first class. Of course it took a note from the ER dr saying I needed to keep my leg extended and elevated. Here is my souvenir from Banff:

Dsc00554 That would be a $120 worth of full leg hinged brace, not from skiing, which would be the logical reason for visiting the ER in Banff, but as the result of a close encounter with an icy sidewalk outside the front door of the hotel. Lovely. I did enjoy the complimentary glass of cab-merlot on the plane. I’ll let you know more after I meet with the surgeon this week.

This will give me plenty of time to complete Charlotte, currently at 100 rows:

    Oy Veh Li, I can’t believe it. I hope your knee is okay. I love the knitting. Charlotte is so colorful and cheerful and has such depth for a UFO. Will it be a sweater, or hat?
    I did an open house in my area and may have a couple of clients and possibly a listing or not.

    Holy cow. As a veteran of knee problems/knee surgery, any time anyone else hurts a knee, I wince.
    Good luck and best wishes with the leg!

    Ohhhhh Li….. I hope you are ok! Just know you are in good company! I am right there with you!!! I ski, hike, bike, run… and it never falls – I get hurt when walking around the house or two and from the car! I am a klutz!
    Feel good, rest up, and let us all know if you need anything!
