What are some things that you’re working on for this year?

Here are my top 3.

1. Start side business
2. Exercise more
3. Cook more (and eat healthier) - goal is to learn 2-3 recipes a month

i've got the exercise thing down pretty good, so the next big thing to go after for me is trying to find a sustainable eating/nutrition plan. In 2017, I've tried a sugar detox, vegan, vegetarian, low carb/Paleo, etc...and crashed and burned with each of them. I think the key for me is moderation...but I have a hard time with that

I might do a detox as well. Not really a must but been thinking about it.

1. Fix my ankle.
2. Be open for surgery to fix it.
3. Admit finally that if on a bad day I can't walk my dogs for half a mile and on a good day less than ten, I need to fix my fucking ankle.

4. Fix the fucking ankle.

Sounds like you should fix that ankle.

#1 stood out to me. Been working on buying less stuff and living more a minimalistic style.

No shit. I've given birth without meds since those really scare me, somehow I don't like the idea of recovering from a surgery for weeks with my stubbornness.

Anyway, I did two 3km walks with my stupid dog today with the ankle taped up, and one 10km one with my idiot dog now in the evening and now I have the ankle in a bucket of snow. I'm not getting any younger so the option of slow and long recoveries is soon no more. It's getting easier again to ignore the pain and the cold weather means that with a cut off trousers the ankle stays cold while on a walk, and buying the good tape has helped but I'd rather run with the dorks again instead of spending an hour for a few km of asphalt.

Do your research first. Find the right person to do the job. My wife had severe over-pronation, found the right person, diligently followed the recovery plan. Today you can't tell it ever was wrong (with the small exception that one foot is a half size larger than the other).

Oh and pick the time of year that you prefer to sit with your leg elevated above your heart at least 20 hours per day, for 6 weeks.

Yeah, those realities keep me away from the doctors office. My uncle is a ligament dude, I'm well covered with good doctors but there is no way in hell I could ever stay put for 6 weeks. Hell no. Your wife deserves a medal for going through that without exploding.

15 years of figure skating, I sprained it often enough but after my dad died I went to the family woods to work off my mild anger issues by hauling logs around. I slipped in the mud while hauling a log, it rolled on my ankle and it took about 1.5 years to heal. After that, normal shit like slipping on ice, or falling down in the woods have meant that it takes a ton of time to nurse it back to health. I fell in the woods twice this autumn and it's still being a bitch.

So basically the ankle is fine , but the life I want to live would be easier if I had an actual working ankle.
