Triathelete... the new me.

So there I was, in the final strech of the road... one more turn, I could see the finish line! After running 5 miles, swimming 1 mile, pogo sticking 500 times, and biked 10 miles... 22 hours later I was just about to cross the finish line when "it" happened. My bike tire hit a patch of gravel (put there by my arch nemisis, I'm sure....) I went FLYING through the air- when i landed, every bone in my body felt like it was going to shatter! Then everything went dark, and I passed out. When I came to, there was Kevin hovering over me, saying that I was fine, just a small concusion, and a torn Maniscus, nothing a small surgery can't fix.

Okay okay, so by now you've probably discovered I'm a big fat liar.... I don't have an arch nemisis, everyone likes me!!!

Okay, no really. I did hurt myself. My left knee to be exact. But the WAY I hurt myself is far less interesting and far more embarassing then the story above... the story I've been sticking to for the past five day. Here's what really happened:

There I was kneeling next to my bathtub... scrubbing away. Thats when I heard it.... a very loud BANG!!! I looked behind me, there he stood, a 11 foot MONSTER.... all grey, and bald... with two large oval black eyes, and a small petit lengthy body. He covered my mouth to muffle my screams, and he took me to his "leader". Everything went dark and I passed out.
When I came to, Kevin was telling me I was okay... just a torn maniscus... nothing a little surgery can't fix. Seems the aliens just wanted to tear my knee apart to see how it worked and they didn't put me back together the right way.

okay, seriously though....I did hurt my knee, and I might have to have surgery. I have an MRI on Monday. It hurts and it is way swollen.

But enough about me. Aiden is STILL sick... he is having a hard time breathing and he is a VERY fussy baby. The doctor refilled his Rx for his Nebulizer meds so we can start giving that to him. He's been throwing up once in a while because he coughs so hard. His eyes are red, and his nose is stuffy and we think he may be even teething already. He chews on EVERYTHING and has a little white bump on hi lower gum line. he's drooling like crazy. We bought him rice cereal to try when he gets better (so he doesn't throw it up) I'm excited... the next step to LONGER SLEEP TIMES!!

Jan is gone this week from work so I work lots, which is prooving to be very hard with a bum knee. Its been crazy at work, we have new people starting and some people leaving, and we're getting ready for an inspection and the list goes on and on... but it'll get better, it always does.

I'll post more pics some day. Aiden's new "bed" time is like 6pm... he set it himself, we're trying to break that habit, as he is fully rested and ready to party at 2am. So there isn't much time for pics. He rolls over from his tummy to his back, and half way the other way, so he'll be rolling over completely soon enough.

But I gots to go, I'm going tanning... Trying to help these nasty stretch marks go away. Plus its my "alone" relaxation time. I know, I know, it causes cancer..... don't lecture I know its bad for me.

OH YEAH! and Aiden's babtism is May 20th at St. Joesephs church at 2:30.... refreshments and goodies follow.... everyone come, it'll be fun!
