    Angry Going to Miss It

    Tomorrow I go in for knee replacement surgery so I won't be able to use my straights fror a bit. At least until I can comfortable stand on both feet for the 25-30 minutes that it takes for me to shave. I'd prefer not to collapse with a straight in my hand. That has the potential to ruin my whole day...

    Darn,
    Hope the surgery goes oke.
    Too bad you'll be shaving differently for a while.
    What is it going to be? DE or ...... electric ?

    Anyway, just imagine the joy of stropping, lathering and shaving properly after waiting for a while.
    Just keep that in mind and keep smiling.


    PS. Or you can grow a beard in the meantime. That has got to be fun when yo ushave again :-)

    Look at it as incentive to do all the physical therapy. Good luck!

    I agree on the sitting.Make a nice sitting area with a mirror and rig up a wash bowl etc.Don't give up yer babies for what you might percieve to be an obstacle. And good luck on your surgery ,speedy recovery to you

    Good luck with the surgery and recovery. I'm sure you will find a way to get your straights into action.

    Good luck. The surgery is a piece of cake. It's the therapy and getting used to the new joint that's the bear but that's short term.
