We are off to Mountain View Hospital in Payson to replace knee #1.
Problem is…I don’t really do “hospitals.”
Babies…ok.
Ankle problem…ok.
Appendix…ok.
That’s it. Really.
Do I look apprehensive? I am.
Do I look nervous? I am.
Do I look…scared? I really, really am.
Excuse me while I channel my inner sturdy mountain woman.
I think she’s hiding under a rock.
This is me walking right up to the hospital to have pre-surgery lab work done. I am so, so brave. Nobody is even with me to drag…ummm… I mean, to walk me in there.
I’m practicing my adult skills–that I must admit, don’t come out to play very often.
Breathe deep.
Breathe deep.
“This won’t hurt a bit. Just a little pinch.”
Fibber.
You know…I’ve gotten so used to seeing my own knees…
that I didn’t really realize just how swollen and strange they actually look.
Well, the clock’s ticking and this little knee is about to get a total overhaul.
I’m not much of a doctor/hospital/OTC Meds sort of soul–but this I know…
I’ve got to be able to walk.
So–mustering up all my bravery.
Here
we
go.
Been quite a while since this sweet little face has shown up here–right? Well, Miss Chomp and her cute friend Piper got the baking bug one day….
and decided that a boat-load of Oatmeal Farm Cookies were in order.
Which, in my humble opinion–is ALWAYS a good idea!
And then they got real creative and added chocolate chips to the tops. Such a brilliant generation to compliment perfection. Heh, heh.
Pretty sure I’d buy anything these little cuties were selling–wouldn’t you?
Solid win.
I love you Miss Chompy!
Down 9.2 pounds in two weeks!
That’s pretty good, considering I made Valentine cookies–ate quite a few–
AND won a chocolate cake from Magleby’s!! THAT was a bit rough to resist, but it had more points than I get in a whole day! No thanks.
Luckily, I have a son who is ready, willing and able to make those temptations disappear! Haha.
Seriously though guys, I’m having a lot of fun with this Weight Watchers stuff. It’s huge to me that I can choose whatever food I want and just count the points. I’ve eaten out several times –Kneaders, Arby’s, Pizza Hut–and still lost big.
Oh, and frozen fruit is my new best friend.
I can totally do this.
