Oh, and you can set up a Google Voice number for free. I have one so I can give that out to people I don't want to have my mobile phone number. I don't use Google for much of anything; not sure what privacy stuff I might be giving up by having it, but well...whatever. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Voice

Such a cute couple. They should marry.

If you don't know how to replace the key fob battery learn how now. Replacing mine it complex and far from obvious. Found a video on Youtube that unlocked the puzzle.

It's 52 now going down to 49 but no worries because it will get back up to 52 again before it falls to 40. Or so they tell me. Moderate wind today again (that means 20 mph and in turn means wind chill). It will be cold today and tomorrow then start to warm up. I have no climate control and no hot water as y'all know. So I have my routine 3 months PCP appointment Tuesday. I'm going to try to move it to W, T, or, F.

What about the battery life?

I wore watches, usually ones from the likes of Walmart, before I started carrying a mobile phone with me. I remember my parent bought me a watch from an old school watch shop when I was in secondary school. But I don't remember ever buying a watch from a proper watch/jewelry store myself. I do not remember any of the brand names; I don't think I have ever worn a watch that carried a well known brand name. I stopped wearing a watch not long after I started carrying a cellphone with me regularly, and have not looked back ever since. I was briefly tempted by the idea of an Apple Watch but ultimately thought it not worth the hassle of carrying "one more thing."

Starling murmuration shot in Ireland: Link to video Loads more on YouTube. Just search for "starling murmurations."

I don't think I could because the people are so animated! I'd get very confused. Same with Italians. But I love Italy and admire France.

Were watching Tehran on Apple TV. Another Life on Netflix Recently finished. 11.23.63 and The Travelers both Time travel memes. Very good!

@wtg Yeah, mine too. It should be covered by snow by tomorrow, but once everything thaws out, I need to get after them early.

The V&A was one of my favourite places in London! I would be interested to visit the storehouse!!

Sarah's reputation has taken a severe nosedive too. Who even knew that was possible?

Doing well. I have one more PT appt that I missed due to an emergency trip to Philly. I have full range of motion and then some. Pretty sure I am right back to where it was before surgery but it might actually bend more than a couple of degrees over baseline. Hyperextension to 3 degrees which is about what a biological knee does. Still swollen and a little sore and stiff at times but overall I am pleased with the outcome so far.
