253 this morning. Party last night with too much food consumed. 
Sorry to hear about your knee. One of these days I'm going to have to have my knee looked at. Can't sit on my knees at all with a lot of pain, and can't keep it bend very long or it goes to hurting pretty bad. Walking or standing doesn't seem to bother it too much, climbing a little. It's the sitting down in small places with no leg room and sitting on it that absolutely bring out the pain.
