Normally I'd be outside part of the day tilling the garden, or mowing, and weedeating(when I can get the bastard to run), and right now those are specifically on the 'Do Not Do list'. Throw in some small stuff, painting and such, that, due to location, I don't trust myself on yet, would be too easy to trip or lose balance and fall. At least the staples are all out.
Except for the knee stuff, most workout stuff is still off the list, so can't burn some of it off that way.
Told someone a few months ago that 'getting old is easy, BEING old sucks'. Boy, was I right.

When I had ACL-related knee surgery, to repair torn cartilage, the one activity that was encouraged was bicycle riding. Stationary or real. The range of motion was limited, but it allowed the joint to be used without weight being put on it. Sort of a non-load bearing polishing of the recently operated on cartilage surfaces.
As yet I don't have quite enough motion for that; hopefully soon. It would be nice.
This may be small consolation, but you are not alone.
