Down for awhile.
« on: October 05, 2012, 07:15:50 AM »
Well at least as far as riding "and pretty much anything else goes", but will still be pecking on the keyboard here. I met with the surgeon yesterday concerning my shoulder, and the MRI results were as I feared. Have a full surface tear of my subscapularis tendon in the rotator cuff, bone spurs on my humerus socket, tear of my Labrum PLUS a cyst, and a real bad case of tendinitis. So I won't be riding for a good while, so I must say I am quite bummed.  :(  Surgery is next Friday, and I am looking at missing 3 weeks of work "minimum". Glad I know what is wrong and glad it is all gonna get fixed.......but damn!!!!!!

Heal fast, Pokey. I did the rotator cuff tango a few years ago and it wasn't nearly as bad as the doctor said it would be. I was done with rehab in half the time and only missed a few days of work. Your mileage may vary . . .

Yeah I know it can be subjective, my Doc wants me in a sling for 3 weeks however. I have had 3 knee surgeries so I am pretty aware of dealing with the pain of rehab. Not being able to ride and shoot is going to drive me INSANE!!!!  :-[

Does this means endless "Twitty" remarks?  I bet you end up joining Twitter ;)

Heal quick, listen to what the frigging DR says. 

Hey, Rick, ever consider making ol Pokey a moderator? :o ;D

I would be a great Mod, I was an Admin/mod at another moto site for several years. ;)  And that video really did cheer me up, boy were those the good ole days. I am now going to go out and do a bit of 1 handed mowing, oh how I love my Honda pushmower.

I have a Honda motor on my current push mower and I will take my old Cub Cadet with a Kawasaki motor any day of the week.  But I guess that a $500 mower vs a $200 mower isn't a fair comparison.   ;)

As soon as the Cub Cadet gets fixed (broken blade mount on the crank) I will be using it, since it makes yard work an absolute pleasure.
