Racquetball in the a.m., then work until 2, then off with Alice to her doctor appointment (hip specialist) for a consultation about possible hip replacement surgery. The doctor suggested a cortisone shot, but Alice hasn't had a good deal of success with those. She'll wait another few weeks before getting one. The doc said Alice's hip still had a layer of cartilage, which is good. Her hip is clearly in pain and not happy, but waiting another 3-6 months to see if the pain diminishes might be the best thing instead of rushing into another surgery.
We were done by 3 and went to Japan town for lunch, followed by Diesel, one of Alice's favorite stores. We arrived home at 5:30 and spent the rest of the evening relaxing. I went to sleep early.
