Default Interesting Couple Days

Typical last few days.... Had knee surgery in April, Sunday I could barely walk, no way I could do stairs. Seen specialist again yesterday, drained the knee and started me on Orthovisc injections. These may be my last option....

Drove back up to Chicago last night for work this week (work up here but live outside Indy); got up today and couldn't find my checkbook to pay the rent for my apartment, tore my apartment apart. Then I remembered it was between my mattress and box spring, hid it there three weeks ago when the apartment manager serviced the a/c while I was working. I completely forgot.... Getting old is a bitch.

Then I go to the garage to ride the bike to work this morning, and the power was out, the damn front gate leading to the garages wouldn't open. I tried everything short of cutting the drive chain (looked up and seen the camera so figured I better stop). I'm not gonna repeat what I said at that point....

Can't wait to see what happens tomorrow....
