I’d like to thank my neighbors for not calling the authorities when they hear me shout out things like, “Put the pizza down while you pee!” when I’m in the backyard.

Dear Knee-Surgery Me.
Sooo, I had my knee surgery on the 24th of August. Fun times, let me just tell you. Since I am definitely going to need surgery on my left knee and will probably need more surgery (in the form of a knee replacement) on my right, I thought it best to write to my future self. I am not a patient person and this surgery/recovery is definitely a test of the patience I do have. The note is a pep talk to future self from an optimistic me….(note that I still walk with a limp, I still can’t drive, and it still hurts a lot, but I have faith it will heal – at least until the next surgery).

It’s Official And Other Stuff.
Angel, T-Bone, and Kita: They were very excited I was pet-sitting.
It’s official. The doctor confirmed that the meniscus is torn in my right knee. He suspects the left knee too, but we’re doing one at a time. Thanks, HMO. Surgery is set for August 24th, so that should be a blast. Honestly, I’m looking forward to it. I’m relieved that it will finally be fixed. So that I can then fix the other one.
And So It Starts.
Copious amounts of bread consumption? Probably NOT the best way to win DietBet.
The DietBet starts today.
I’ve weighed in, snapped my scale photo, and am ready to shed those pounds. I am. Really. Continue reading
I’m Setting Up a DietBet and YOU’RE Joining.

That’s right. YOU. You’re joining in on a DietBet. It’s 4 weeks, 8lbs, and money. How’s it work? You put $20 in the pot (collected by them, not me), and if you lose 8lbs you win. The more people who play, the more money there is. What if more than 1 person loses 8lbs? The pot gets split evenly. And, I found a special promo code on Local Fun for Kids where DietBet will add $25 – (correction – they’ll match our bet amount, so they’ll add $20 not $25. My bad.) to our pot at the end – just ’cause.
Why would I we want to do this? Because Target is now selling bathing suits and, sister, let me just tell you – those suckers are tiny.
