I feel your pain. I fractured my left elbow when I was younger, and I remember that pain very well. Glad to hear the hips are better, though; that's something to be thankful for. At least Jamie can assist with prepping dinners with you supervising.

I bought myself a brand new bike three summers ago. Got on it after not riding one for over 45 years. The handlebars were not tight enough, and I went down so hard and fast in the bushes. lol I had hubby tighten it the right way. Tried again and was so shaky riding the damn thing that I never rode it again. I gave it away to my cousin the following summer. Too old to be breaking bones, I'll stick to walking and swimming.
