Knee Update

Well I saw the ortho today. He said the MRI shows no tears in my knee. The only issue I have is fluid on my knee, so he put a shot of cortisone into my knee. The cortisone itself did not hurt but the needle sure did. So that is all we know till I go back on April 18th.

Family is the Key

Home schooling is more the books, reading, and writing. Home schooling is a way of life. It is the only life where you can spend hour together and never get sick of each other. It is the only life in which kids and adults can learn and grow together. It is the only life that can cause you to really see the value in people of all ages. Most of all home school is about FAMILY. Family is number one and the only thing you think about. I find that by home schooling you really get past the "me me me" way of thinking. You thoughts are about your family and what you can do to help them learn and grow in life.

Creepy Book

About a week or so ago I started this new book, "The True Story of the Bilderberg Group." This book gives me the creeps. I have only been able to read about 2 pages at a time then I have to set it down because you are almost shaking. This book causes you to question the universe we live in. Some of the stuff in this book is to creepy to even want to believe. It shows a side government and society the most people do not even have a clue exists.

Knee Update

Well after being prodded by my wonderful friend on YMX and my hubby I made a call last week to see an Orthopedist about my right knee. For over 2 weeks it has been swollen and had these lumps sticking out from it. Well today was the appointment. The Dr is very nice. He took X-rays of the joint and as expected it shows no bone injuries. He said the lumps are fluid build up due to injury. He is thinking I have a meniscus tear in my knee. He scheduled an MRI for Wed. 3/19. Then I go back on Wed. 4/2 for a follow up. So we shall see what the MRI shows. All I know is my knee hurts. It hurts to walk, it hurts to sit, it just hurts 24/7.

Rolla = Ice Cream

Yes Rolla does equal ice cream in my book and the book of several others. Today we made the LONG trip to Rolla. Well what trip to Rolla would not be complete without a stop at Central Dairy in Jefferson City. This little ice cream shop has become a ritual with us to make this stop. This trip included my mom, Crystal, Elizabeth, Joanie, and myself. This time it was about 10 am when we hit our taste of heaven.

The Rolla visit itself was nice. Short and sweet. Since we ended up on the road so early we went to Columbia for dinner and walked the mall for a while.

Road trips are always so much fun!

State Officer's Practice

I survived! That is the first thought that went through my head as we left the lodge room and went to go eat lunch. I have been working like crazy on my part and other then changing a few words (unless you had a ritual you did not know) I nailed it. I was asked questions through the entire process and I feel like I nailed each and every one of them.

One said thing I noticed, was the lack of people. Between illness and other issues we where missing what seems like a ton of people. I think in reality it was 6 people. I hope all those that where unable to be there are doing ok. They are in my prayers.

Oh another neat thing about the day. Following lunch it was time for the reception and my formal looked GOOD! It was big before now it is really big due to my weight loss and toning! I LOVE IT!
