Came back from the clinic where I got my checkup.
The ortho guy doesn't want me to have surgery yet. He'd rather me try some physical therapy first. Turns out, my kneecaps don't ride in the channel on my leg bones. They slide off to the side and rub on the outside 'bump' on the top of the leg bone, which causes grinding. A LOT of grinding. I think it freaked the doctor out a bit. I may still have to have surgery, but that's not currently our first option.
According to the doc, I would've made a good gymnast. I've got 'loose joints', which translates to flexibility. Not that I've noticed, but hey, he's the expert. This is also why my shoulders grind, but since they don't hurt, we won't mess with them.
The rest of my health seems to be fine. My cholesterol was 145.
I ended up leaving early a day and the hotel didn't charge me, so it worked out. Nice enough hotel, but the walls were a bit thin. I had a really good lunch one day, but only a so-so dinner. I wished to go out and eat at other restaurants, but my hubby's uncle was in town for his followup appointment to his heart surgery and it got postponed a day. His ride home had to leave, so I got to take him back the next day (since I had my followups). Which meant crappy meals from then on out, as he has no sense of taste when it comes to food. We ate at Taco Bell, Quiznos (which he didn't eat at, that was for his ride - my niece), and El Pollo Loco.
Ugh.

I directed the children's choir for the first time today during a church service. They sang a couple of songs. They did pretty good. I feel like I did okay. Hopefully, the kids will come to get to know me and like me. The only kinda creepy part of it all is that I direct the kids during Sunday School (as a part of their classes). All of the other teachers stick around in the room, gabbing in the corner. At one point, I wanted to tell them all to shush, as they were getting a bit loud. I didn't, though. It just felt weird, being watched.
I think the kids had fun, though. They made me proud.

The adults are bored and they're worse than any children when they get that way. Tell them (with a smile) that EVERYONE in the room has to sing! The kids love seeing the adults singing and doing motions with songs like "Father Abraham," and the adults will enjoy it, too. (Yep, I'm a church musician)
Wait a minute! You teach children to sing in church AND have routine extra-marital affairs?!!!! Interesting!
