I messed my knee up at the gym. I got off the treadmill and could barely walk. My knee is super swollen and hard to move. I REALLY hope I didn't mess up my meniscus again. I am NOT going through that hell again. I currently have it elevated and have ice on it. I'm also hobbling around. Its absolute hell.
I've had my meniscus repaired 4 times, so I feel you. Hopefully it isn't anything serious.

I got an offer for the job I interviewed for last week! I countered to ask for more money but even if they don't give it to me I will still accept! DS will go to day care daily until noon then MIL will pick him up and I'll get him from her after work. I've been WAH since before he was born so this is a huge adjustment. I'm so happy knowing he will be with her every afternoon though.
I am down 20 lbs total! I get to wear jeans at my new job. I am so excited to buy cute new jeans now that I'm 2 sizes smaller.

Ouuuccchhh. I was walking around for 3 years with a torn meniscus and a floating cartilaginous body in my knee. I had my first knee surgery 5-28-12. I'm just trying to strengthen everything around it like my doc told me to. I just must have stepped wrong or something

Oh holy moly. I tore meniscus in 4 places over the course of a few years, but only had surgery once -- a partial meniscectomy (sp?) about 2 years ago.. I kinda thought I was in the clear at this point and now I'm nervous all over again!
My surgeries were all in high school and college (sophomore, junior, and senior years of high school and sophomore year of college). NOTHING they tried actually worked to repair it long-term, and it's still torn, I've just learned to ignore it for the most part.
The girls I nanny for love Barney. One of the characters, an orange dinosaur named Riff, drives me nuts.
I also really want a Bloody Mary, but I'm taking prednisone and you aren't supposed to drink while on it :/ I'm trying to decide what would happen if I had one tiny drink.
1. We had 1200 people at the zoo today (a pretty busy day for us). It's supposed to snow Friday through Sunday, so that'll for sure be our biggest day this week.
2. MIL brought leftover pizza by while DH and I were at work. Free pizza is the best kind of pizza.
3. I need to run a load of laundry, but I'm so, so tired after work today. I think I'll just sit on the couch for a while longer.

I bought a pair of Nine West heels for $9 last night. Also, today I might have found the bridesmaid dresses.
Also,we need to completely clean out our fridge and pantry more often. When we completely cleaned them out today, we found many things that expired last year.
i am so sorry. i cannot stand another facebook argument over mommy issues.
someone posted anti-circumcision bullshit leading to some weird ass dad talking about how his concern over him and his sons penis.
and i can't. i just want to post pictures of my dogs. and food.
I hear you.
I like FB, for certain things, but in general, I need to f*cking get off of there. I get into sh*t, there's too much sh*t. It's just a vortex of a suckhole part of the time.
i just really didn't need to know about my friend's husband's penis issues.
i just don't give the slightest fuck in the world.
I'm more upset about the fact yet another student asked me if I'm pregnant than I am about finding the c-u-next-Tuesday word written under my name on the blackboard. The dirty word, I can pretend was just something some dumb 12 year old wrote on the board because it sounded sooo badass, but the pregnancy q is a little too personal (fwiw, I'm not trying to get pregnant, I am apparently just chubby.)
I'm putting this in randoms but was totally going to do a HolyShitIAmSoHappyForMyFriend!!!!!
A friend of mine has been having a lot of difficulties lately. Health scares, money problems, worries about providing for her kids, her dad is about to lose his house, wage garnishment, car dying and so on and so forth. Her husband was just offered a new job with a larger company than his current employer - with a (very) significant increase in pay. His increase means she doesn't have to work, take contract jobs, etc. and can concentrate on her small business and family. In talks with his former employer (still a large company but not as big as new employer) the HR folks asked what he wanted to do with his stock options. Stock options he knew nothing about. Turns out he has 750,000 shares of stock, worth $35 or so each. Which he can exercise at less than $2 per share. Which means, if the math is correct, they are now worth well over TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS!!!!! Sooooo happy for her and her family. It couldn't have happened to a nicer person, or at a more opportune time. Unless it was me that it happened to, of course.
Whoa, that's quite a realization. He didn't realized he had 750,000 fully vested stock options, just sitting there? I mean, that's unbelieveably awesome and all, but seriously how do you not know that?
I gave away my brand new twin breast feeding pillow to a pharmacist I know through work today. She is 28 weeks pregnant with her twins. I'm so excited for her. I felt good being able to give her something that can be a bit expensive. I love being able to help people out like that.

I was wondering that too. I wish I found out something like that.
I know, right? He was an employee before they went public and she found the paperwork when she was cleaning his home office the other day. He just went to work, did his job and paid no attention to the fact that they'd received certified mail informing him of stock options??? Yeah, I'd be checking that stuff before it hit the front door. But at least it means it wasn't spent, right? And fewer tax ramifications since it's been sitting and not exercised immediately from what I understand. But yeah, I'm stunned and it has nothing to do with me other than I feel excited for her and her family. So much relief from worry.
I was spotting Thursday/Friday/Saturday and thought I was getting my first PP period. And I was angry at how early it was because I am EBF. But it's gone and I can't find a decent article about PP periods to allay the thoughts that are creeping into my brain right now.
I had somewhat of a period 4 month pp. so did a friend of mine. And then nothing til 12 months when I stopped pumping milk. Hope it's just a random for you, too
