Oh boy, see, I couldn’t be an influencer… I stink too bad at updating “my followers”.

Here’s some pics since the last post. Trips to Chattanooga, Rescue Squad events, Vols football events, etc.

Wow! Didn’t know it had been so long since my last post! Yikes… really need to do better. So, in a nutshell, let’s summarize!

Slipped and fell and stretched my knee. Think we’re ok… but physical therapy is gonna be happening soon.

Gallbladder hated me, decided to cause painful issues requiring it to be surgically removed. My follow-up is in a couple weeks, soooo not trying to rush it! But, I’m feeling good.

Finally, after sooo many years, we got to meet the wonderful Aurora Carbullido, mother to my Navy mentor, HM2 Anthony Carbullido. Also from Guam was Ashley and Anthony Jr. She invited us for a FEAST and to meet her Georgia family, including Michael - I’ll leave it at that for now. 😉 😉 Needless to say, they are all so amazing.

I turned another year older. I’ll just say forever 37. Yep, that age sounds nice. Spent the day how I wanted! In Cades Cove looking for bear. Found one. 😆

Cash hasn’t turned 13 yet, BUT we came to see Uncle Travis who took him to the Guitar Center where a lovely associate helped pick out a guitar, case, stand, picks, tuner, and strap. Everything but the lessons. I’ve already got those set up - weekly for 30 minutes, then practicing on his own.

🤔, I think that’s a good nut shell for now.

Knee is feeling meh. Swelling is a little more under control, but I foresee the doc sending me to therapy to do some work with the tens unit, cryo-therapy, circulation, etc.

I’m just anxious to be back to 💯!

I still am swollen around my medial and lateral portion of my knee. My doctor wants to give me another two weeks of rest, anti-inflammatories, icing, and elevating.

If the swelling hasn’t gone down by the next follow-up, she’s sending me to physical therapy to see if that’ll do the trick. She did take out my staples, maybe too soon based on the huge gashes that remain in 2/3 of my incision sites.

That’s life.
