    Ouch! Bet you're extra sore right now.

    Truthfully I never knew what Meloxicam did for me, until I stopped it. I have bad feet and a collapsed ankle too and stopping that med made them all go crazy. You'd think I was 100 years old watching me walk.

    Have you tried a Comfrey poultice for helping bone healing? I'm growing it for other uses, but it is also called bone knit, and supposedly good for broken bones and torn muscles.

    That’s pretty interesting.

    The pics I've seen of the surgery are plenty bloody and gory - I haven't tried to watch a video but they're out there. Hey if I'm awake I could give the surgeon "pro tips" to make my knee high speed and low drag. LOL

    And TY Bud!
    And if you're not asleep, I'm sure the surgeon will get a kick out of your tips. LOL. Or give you a kick if you're asleep.
    Modern day surgery is amazing. I have very little confidence in the medical profession in general, except for surgeons.
    After a couple of them for myself and those family close to me, I'm stunned by how proficient they are and how good the technology is today.
    You're in good hands my friend. Keep us posted.

    I mixed an Iced Coffee. Has ice cream in it but you’d barely know. It’s my first use of Coffee Base and it makes a surprisingly good coffee vape. I’ll post the recipe tomorrow.
    yes please post it!

    What are you random folks up to this evening?
    Not much at the moment. Just relaxing, listening to the sound of the rain on my roof, and some (non-plant) music. It's very peaceful right now, that's how I prefer things.

    I've been thinking about turnips, and what they might taste like with mustards. I'm growing a few different radish varieties, and I wonder what the greens taste like cooked. They're pretty bitter raw. Anybody cooked radish greens?

    The roots of short top icicle radish are pretty tasty in a salad mixed with malabar spinach, cucumber, and a homemade olive oil vinaigrette.

    Just drifting generally, and enjoying random things. I looked up some of the e-liquid recipes that y'all referenced, to see what ingredients I have here, or can adapt to fit said recipes. Nothing fits so far, but I just got started doing this again, so I'm sure I'll find something soon.

    Tempted to go plant some more seeds in the rain, but the lightning keeps discouraging me. Best seed planting I've done yet has been in the rain, and may do it anyway. I'll probably wait until daylight though, kinda hard to see in the dark these days. Much easier to walk based on what my feet tell me.

    No I've never heard of it.
    I bought some roots from Coe's Comfrey, out of North Carolina. 14/15 roots came up. If you want some leaves to try it out, message me and I'll send some to you. All you have to provide is the shipping. I've got plenty.

    I cook radish(not the leaves) for a low carb treat. I have a few fall plantings going right now on my deck. I grow food everywhere!

    I was prescribed that med before they knew I had the Autoimmune disease. It turns out I was s allergic to it. It's a piss off-start new med..take for one day..find out it makes me very sick..wasted 10 bucks. :) It does work wonders for a lot of folks though. I have a bad knee right now. I was helping a cna turn a 300lb guy. They say use your legs for lifting..it doesn't work if your old like me. 58 and I think my parts are trying to wear out.

    Radishes are so easy to grow, wish I'd grown them sooner. Excited to see how the watermelon radishes turn out and taste like at harvest.
