it has felt like such an accomplishment

to ditch the smartphone. i'm still new to the ways of the dumbphone, but the feeling is freeing and also calming cause i'm not always on the device. (The extra, corporate limb is severed and will stay that way lol.) I'm using the Opel TouchFlip

Can it work? Dumbphone and no laptop/tablet

lol. Clearly still have a laptop posting here. But would like a way out. Aside from the internet I don't need it for personal stuff. Just banking etc. though I can always call the bank. Thinking I should just lock it away for a week or two and see what i miss. Wdyt?

Eventually will get rid of the tv too but that'll be the last to go in this setup because it's easiest. Just a bit of complexity with the laptop now that I'm without a smartphone too.

Advice for handling info from MRI scan (while waiting for a specialist appointment)

MRI Findings:

There is a large posterosuperior osteochondral lesion of the ankle, measuring 12mm x 9.3mm with osteochondral fragment within it which also measures approximately 9mm. There is a cleft at the base of the osteochondral lesional suggestive of underlying grade 3 chondromalacic changes the superomedial dome of the talus.

Walking constituted a lot of my day and now that's pretty much nulled. Can I still go on short, even-ground walks while I wait to find out if I should be in a boot/getting surgery?

Is there anything I should be doing to take care of this besides rest? Seems out of my depth to guess at rehab, let alone healing time and prognosis (I want to be able to hike again, even run).
