I had an interesting day today. I’m feeling like Humpty Dumpty. King’s soldiers coming my way.

I followed up with the surgeon about my knee. I can’t recall if I’ve mentioned this before, but I have a torn meniscus on the left side of my right knee. The only way to fix it is with surgery. Because of my size, I have to have surgery in the hospital. That’s fine with me. I will feel safer that way.

I’ve had a lot of health issues and surgery this year, but I really feel like this is reclaiming myself. I want to be healthy. It’s difficult to walk. Losing weight will be harder if I can’t walk for long periods. I want to dance. I can’t even fathom turning. My knee gives out and I may end up on the ground! That’s wouldn’t be pretty.

I will be having this surgery the day before Thanksgiving. This way I will be able to recover while I’m having fun with family. 🙂 I was already planning to be on vacation that week anyway. I shouldn’t miss any more work and by Christmas, I’ll be ready for bear or rather, Santa!

I’m excited. Humpty Dumpty will be put back together again.

Tomorrow is election day. Have you decided who you will vote for?

The news room is a fascinating place to be on an election night. I won’t go in until 3 pm. I hope everything goes smoothly.

Of course we feed everyone – they always want LaRosa’s. I’ll be taking my baby food with me. Maybe something with tomato in it so I will feel a part of things.

The last election for President, I didn’t get home until 3 a.m. We all went out and partied a little bit afterward. I don’t know if we will do that again or not.

Pat Crowley is fun to watch. He zooms all over Northern Kentucky gathering stories and information. He can write a story in a flash. He’s amazing.

Pray that all the machines work and no one does anything too weird. I’m enjoying being a part of history. Are you?

As far as the weight goes — I don’t know what’s happening. It feels weird eating pureed foods. I almost feel like I’m cheating, but I’m not. I’m right on track with the food. Maybe I should take the Magic Bullet to work and puree a piece of pizza! What do you think? Nah.
