@GardenQueen30 Thank you for the encouragement. I had an appointment with the doctor last week to discuss the MRI results. When I tore my lateral and medial meniscus, I did a really good job. Both of the tears are sideways, and they are the kind that requires a repair. (Not the kind that they just snip away the little…

@KeriA Good morning! We had about 10 inches of snow. It came in as blizzard which was unbelievable. Every time I looked outside, I was surprised to see everything covered in white.

@Quirkout I am not sure about breastfeeding and magnesium supplements. You may want to speak with your doctor about that. Have you tried the typical routine things?

@Quirkout when you figure out a way to fix your sleep schedule let me know. I've been fighting with this for a few months. Trying magnesium right now.

Today I am trying something new. At work I sit at a desk all day and I forget to get up and move. I set a reminder on my phone to pop up every hour that says WALK. I am going to walk inside the building and hopefully get 500 steps each time. This should add up to an additional 4K in steps. (Sometimes when I leave work, I…
