Excellent advice all! Thanks again!

So here is my update. On Friday, my knee scooter came. I put it together and it has been a HUGE help at home. Our house is fairly open (all one level except for the basement) so it is actually really, really good for getting around while holding things. My knee was beginning to ache some, but since I'll be on crutches at work during the week, I'll be fine (less scooter time). I'm not going to take the scooter to work since I mostly work from my desk anyway. Luckily, I'm also near the entrance and everything I need is pretty much within arms reach, so it's totally doable (much more so than at home).

We found a car on Saturday. It was a LONG day with a LOT of driving around but luckily, it was successful. I was losing hope at one point though - apparently cheap daily drivers are in hot demand! We bought a 93 honda civic with 170K miles on it (or something like that). It drives well, but it's not pretty. It's missing a lot of parts too, so I've been combing the internet for replacements of the important ones (like side view mirrors!). I don't doubt for a second that we'll be able to get our money back when we resell this car at the end of my crutch time.

I don't yet have a handicap permit, but I've got the forms filled out and I'll take care of that after my surgery on Thursday (or, I'll get my H to do it).

Showering is fine. I just bag my foot, use a shower stool (we already had one from years ago!) and luckily, our shower is big enough for me to get in there, but small enough that I'm in no danger of falling over really. If I was forced to use the shower in our master bath, I'd be in trouble (it's a tiny stall type shower, but it's out of commission right now anyway).

The biggest challenge right now is my marriage, actually. My husband is not handling this well and it's taking all of my mental energy to try and help him deal so that we don't end up divorced before this is all over with. It's only been a little over a week, I am worried we won't make it 2 - 3 months!
