Life is good for hubster and I. I have found my partner for life. It has been a great past year. A year ago this time my life had fallen apart this very week. I am so thankful that I kept my head above water and BAM...here I am now.
Many of you will remember I broke my knee two years ago...and had surgery last year to try to fix it. Was wheelchair bound for 2 months and a couple more months of non weight bearing. It was a hellious time in my life and Dan (my ex) was not supportive. He was mean and miserable. The more pain I was in, the more he drank to escape from me and our relationship.....It was a vicious cycle and I didn't know how to fix it. We gave up, and I am glad we did. Because the peace I have in my heart, I have learned to love me again. My smile is brighter and my world is happy.
February 11th is my surgery day. I call it my "return to me" day. I have nee approved for a complete knee replacement surgery. It's not an easy surgery and requires a lot of work. I start my healthy eating plan after Christmas and the real work begins. I know that once I become mobile again I can work out and get busy again. No more sitting on my butt as it gets wider. My attitude is trying to get better and better. I have a ton of support around me, the greatest friends and family and of course my husband. I am scared and have been a nervous wreck. I keep saying I can't handle the pain, but as surgeon says that I walked on a broken knee for a year before getting help, and I have handled this...I can do anything and he is right.
We have two yorkie poos and they drive me insane. They are worse than when my kids were little. They make so many messes. UGH. Speaking of kids....they are doing well....teenagers are busy with teenage life and my 9 year old just keeps me hopping as well.
I am hopeful. 2014 will bring me a new knee. I can waitress more and make more cash and be all that I want to be. I haven't been around much here...I don't feel like I can relate much anymore....but I do read sometimes and I am so excited for so many of you....Weddings, distance closed, babies, and happiness.. I miss some of you so much!! Message me....find me on facebook if we aren't friends....
