That can't be ALL bad, can it?
And I'm DETERMINED, and that's a good thing, right?
Going in, all I'd heard was how easy this surgery is and that after a couple of days I'll bounce right back. I'm not saying that I don't believe them, but I apparently forgot what surgery feels like, a little bit, and I've never had incisions before.
OUCH.
Pain meds are GOOD STUFF!!!
But I supose I was just thinking that i just gotta do this and be done, and so I did, and now it is. Recovery can't take too long. All my friends say 2 days, the dr said give it a week, and ...well, I'll just do that. I had the kids all to myself this morning, made breakfast, cleaned up , but it's hell when the meds wear off. One of these times it won't be.
I guess I didn't tell some people who wanted to know about it. But all I heard was that it was NO Big Deal so I didn't think to tell some of the people I talk to often, like Preggo or Shawn. Preggo didn't like that she didn't know about it, so her and Travis came over last night to hang out and bring me food. Cept I didnt' want any so I got a Vanilla steamer from Starbucks- YUM. WAY YUM. I thought that was so sweet. I love my sister in law to pieces. Travis too. Then Brian and Em came over- and I love that, too.They knew Kim and Travis were over. It hadn't occured to me to INVITE them while they were all texting- druggy fuzz brain- but that makes me love it even more that they came over anyway. That's the house I want- when our friends just come over. It's funny that I used to HATE that, years ago. I would NEVER dream of doing that to anyone, and I hated when people just "stopped by" and now, every time it happens, I cheer. I love those visits. Lisa, my mommy friend who has kids in CJ and Josh's grades, came over one morning to let the kids play before school because they had some time to kill. It was brilliant! And Guin stopped to see if they wanted a ride another morning. I love my my other sister in law or brother in law stop by when they are in the hood. Good stuff. I love that people feel loved enough and comfortable enough to do it.
I love vicodin. But I have to walk now. I should have a six pack for how effin sore my tummy muscles are. On the up side, who even flippin knew I had muscles there anymore? I sure as hell didn't!
