So, I have been away from my keyboard for the last many weeks due to surgery. Oh, and for the record, I did NOT have weight loss surgery. I had fibroids, which were causing me all sorts of problems including anemia and possibly infertility. The surgery removed them.
The plan was for me to post while I recovered. What happened was: I slept, woke when my pain medications wore off, ate to ward off nausea and took more pain meds which put me back to sleep. Wash, rinse, repeat. In between I entertained visitors with my loopiness. This continued for a couple of weeks. Then I magically felt better and was ready to join the rest of the world in being awake during the day.
In true overzealous fashion, I got up, did laundry, made my bed, washed my hair and pulled a muscle. Not just any muscle, but an ab muscle that lay directly beneath one of four incisions that were the only evidence of my surgery. And I hurt! The pain of the muscle was worse than the pain of the surgery and I headed back to the doc to rule out a hernia. I was sent home with instructions to resume the pain meds as needed and limit my physical activity to walking slowly.
So I took the next many weeks taking it slow. I listened to books on tape, talked to my family and truly relaxed. And I came up with so many ideas for my blogs that I can't wait to get started. First up: did anyone watch Big Sexy this week?
Until next time ladies, Live large!
