    The knee is recovering nicely , my flexion is awesome and currently at 98° . What I still need to work on is my extension , that's only at 15° and needs to be at or near 0° . Still getting some sharp pain and that will need to be addressed at my next Ortho appt in 2 weeks

    Once I get my ROM then I can work on strengthening my knee . I also need to have my l/leg looked at and determine what's causing the muscle weakness . Hoping it's not a neurological disorder as I'm being told

    By the way. Where is Andy? Is he still stuck on his quest for a shirt?

    Coming from a background of mainly structural engineering type work (I'm not an engineer but I have worked closely with them in the industry) architects are evil people. They only need to make things pretty, forget if it defies the laws of physics...
    worked with a guy one time....liked to come up with really off the wall type designs. he designed a whole house without any right angles. gravity only works in one direction - straight down. you try to engineer a house that doesn't have any straight/vertical walls. o_O
    his next project was inspired by a sail on a sailboat, complex curves everywhere. I stalled long enough that he lost interest and gave up trying to get us to build it. :laugh:

    also had an architect redline some drawings one time with some comment along the lines of "this is wrong, its not what i asked for, don't waste MY time". problem was he couldn't do basic math and had made an error when adding up the materials in a wall. I couldn't fit what he wanted to fit in the wall given a fixed wall height. So I kindly laid it out for him that A+B+C did not equal D contrary to what he believed. Prove me wrong, bitch! Its basic math of feet and inches and fractions. I can do it, can you? NO! We ended up modifying the design by raising the roof height to accomodate the structure needed in the walls and that required the approval of the city and HOA (=big $$$). He paid the money as it was easier for him to do so than to admit he was wrong and hurt his ego.

    you're married... you know better than to challenge an angry woman. we remember details of conversations and arguments that you didn't even think was possible!
    do not back me into a corner and hope to come out alive. I will crush you with the details of every conversation that has been had! And to top it off I will also list what outfit I was wearing at the time and what I ate for breakfast, lunch and dinner that day too!

    Lol

    I know

    Just trolling along.

    My contractor gave me measurements for 2 windows, he texted them to me.

    I get the windows and they are the wrong size.

    He said I made the mistake.

    I texted what he sent me.

    'Oh' he said.

    don't be the middle man.

    That sounds about right. Now put that into the perspective of someone who has done programming (software development) for 30 years and the "CIO" has , maybe, five years of IT. I am granting him that he is a very smart guy.... BUT.... I can't emphasize enough.... BUT.... It is not building design. He has had basic IT support but he has never had a development team that he has had to "manage". Our team reports directly to the CIO. That sucks!
