I think putting 2025 garlic closer to the house will help me a LOT with harvesting both scapes and the bulbs and their replanting. Located within visual distance from the back door is a better location for my garlic.
I mean, changing up your crops is like redecorating your house every year, except it's your Garden.

I think it is smart to rotate growing areas! So one year you grow tomatoes in a certain spot, the next year cucumbers, the next garlic, etc. I think it helps the soil not get depleted as much.

Let me know how this goes for you!

I had my last home physical therapy this morning. Right knee bends to 96 degrees. All r leg exercises look good.
Still, crummy sleep last night. I ended up taking 30 milligrams of melatonin to get knock me out.
I get my staples out tomorrow and start Clinic in house physical therapy next Monday.
I requested the same gentleman who walked me through physical therapy last April.
Should be interesting. When I saw the dr. last March, I complained about my right knee. They took x rays of only my right knee. After PT I saw the dr's nurse and she recommended that I see Orthopedics. Orthopedics took x rays of both knees. When I spoke to the surgeon, HE said my x rays (were) mirror images of each other, and which knee did I want to be operated on?
Walking better, still using the walker bc I fear falling, but the PT today didn't worry about that happening.
Next Monday, the PT will have a better idea of my difficulties than either of us had last March.
Sometimes you just don't know What questions to ask.

Surgery Healing Update
Saw Physician's nurse today.
Apparently No staple removal, just butterfly bandages under a big thick cover bandage. And, new butterfly bandages and general cleansing.
They used plastic for a new kneecap and hardware. Nurse and I agreed no driving until maybe late December.
Nurse and DH both think my leg and incisions look great!
I think it looks like I survived a samarai sword attack.

Good update. @ducks4you thank you, good to hear how your coming along it’s a tricky healing journey. It will get better it’s a time issue. Also most docs / surgeons don’t always mention that part of the healing journey is also training the brain to adjust to the new joint components to set the transition for new movement and motion.
Take it slow never over dooooo.
Sending healing blessings your way.
