I skimmed all but the first and last post. My ancestors were Haldens (for half-Dane) so likely some Viking lineage by way of England.

Veering off topic, but- cool things to outside subzero temperatures? Soap bubbles, boil a pan of water and throw it up in the air, made these rainbow icicles with my son one of those days when too cold for school to be in session.

They do sound good; grateful for an excuse to get some brandy.

Good, I found you a link with more on hip-knee kinematics including some exercises that can be done at home. http://www.fix-knee-pain.com/train-your-butt-to-fix-your-knee-pain/

Do your feet turn out when you stand or walk? Most people’s do because we sit too much and that outward rotation strains the hinge (knee joint) until it wears and breaks down like a warped screen door- oiling it with supplements doesn’t fix the structural strain. Strengthen hip abductors, gently stretch tight lateral rotators, and work on keeping feet straight should help knees, especially straighten outer edge of your feet when getting up from a chair.

For a lazy evening to bake, watch the snow fly, and watch White Christmas.
