I'm just disgusted -- it's a beautiful day here today, the snow's melted, and my horse is standing out there munching on hay and I'm sitting in here with an aching knee. Ok, everyone, I did break down and call yesterday, and have an appointment with the orthopedic knee specialist in Durango. She apparently does a lot of knees, I'm sure they get a lot of similar injuries on the ski slopes around here. Thank you so much for all the very helpful advice -- the most prevalent one was -- go see an orthopedic specialist. And, I know you're all right. But, Dr. Q, I would also love for you to come to my house and put me over your knee! Sounds like fun to me!
