POST OP

Well so far so good after surgery..then again I've been on a high dose of vicadin for the past 48 hours. I'll find out exactly what happend weds on my follow up appt.. You see the Dr came to my hospital room the next morning..and all I remember is him pullling out my bloody drain from my knee and him telling me it was an extra long surgery...NICE. I wont use spell check so I can laugh at typing loaded. My knee is sore..and from I can see I have a 5 inch scar going down my knee. AWESOME. I would also like to thank God for giving me my period two days after surgery...all is not lost. I have lost about 11 lbs since starting my diest last week. Rock and Roll..or like they say in Chinatown..Wok and Roll...

Kai

Well he just turned two months and his feet have decided to grow like weeds. He's just starting to hold his head up when he's on his tummy. He's still sleeping 8 hours a night and is finally starting to get the whole bottle thing.

Notice the hat is about to pop off.



Roger that mom

Surgery

So I get a call today at 2:30pm telling me I am now scheduled for a allograf of my meniscus on my right knee on Thursday at 10:00am. Thanks for the short notice. I'm officially off of work for 5 weeks then my vacation month. So 9 weeks to get back healthy enough to be light duty. Hopefully after I am recovered I can finally run again!

Work Work Work

Wow work has been super busy. Within 7 days my partner and I dealt with an 8 year old girl being kidnapped from school and a bomb threat at Home Depot. Why do people get pissed when you come on the PA and announce, "Attention Home Depot customers this is the Los Angeles Police Department, please evacuate the store immediately".

What I should have said was "You depot workers and shoppers, possible bomb in store, run your ass outta here!" It all worked out in the end...

We had another fatality at work of a child. A four year old was pushing her two year old sister in a stroller and was hit by a car. The two year old passed at scene. I'm not sure how close the parents were, but serisouly whats up with that?

Bottom line is slow down to the speed limit and be a defensive driver.

So...

So I guess I have gained some weight. We got a new scale and it has everything on it. Weight, body fat %, bone density % and water %. According to the scale I am morbidly obese...good lord. Not only that, someone I played soccer with was so kind to point out to my friends that there were actual players at the tournament that made ME look small. WTF? Even if you are thinking it keep it to yourself.

One of the main issues of the weight gain is not being able to run. That and eating too much! Seriously both my knees are killing me. I am going to have an MRI on my left knee this week. I might have torn my meniscus getting out of the car at work..and my right knee is still waiting for cadaver cartilage to arrive so I can get that one done. My right knee is going to have at least a 3 month recovery time. Hopefully I can get it done end of Oct. We'll see. Until then I'm going to have to cut my calories in halve. So stand by for me to be a bitch!

Kai is still not taking a bottle. Everyday he doesn't is a day closer to when Nicole has to go back to work...YIKES.
