Glad to hear you are dealing with this in stride, so to speak. I've been dealing with knee issues which look likely to result in hopefully just minor surgery. Even after two weeks on crutches, (just a cane now,) I can't begin to wrap my head around the adjustments you have had to make. It is abundantly clear that our wonderful rural escape, which we access via a long steep flight of steps, is not a long term primary residence for those in the last half of their life, and will likely become an AirBnB. Scooting up the outside stairs on your butt is fine in good weather, but a bit limiting in rain/snow.

I have been extraordinarily healthy in my 6+ decades. This is a bit of an epiphany that I am not 18 anymore and really need to prepare for that fact.

I hope that 2026 is a good one for you.
