Monday
well this monday update feels more like a weekend.
bill's home, ethan's home, me and jase....feels like sunday all over again.
husband's been working on things since before I got up this morning.
woke up and he was out raking the yard around the fire hole.
he just fixed the ceiling fan that's been wonkey for 2 years.
am gonna have him take me to walmart or joanns as soon as jase is done with breakfast.
I'm feeling pretty good today.
still taking the pain medication, but not feeling as if I need it as much.
there's a hard pain if I swallow too much at a time....like last night I was real thirsty and took a rather gulpy drink from my crystal light ( which is yicky by the way) about three swallows at once - you know...standard "gosh Im thirsty" drink.
I had to lay down....I got so sick and hurty from that.
its amazing how something so small can do that.
this morning I took one tylenol gell cap, felt it go allllll the way down.
its so weird.
but...in other news...it only took me 40 minutes to finish my jello for breakfast today.
and I actually thought about making some coffee....the first coffee thought since last week pre-surgery.
and can I just say that beef broth is yicky??
so....for the next 3 - 4 weeks I am to survive on chewable vitamins, sugar free jello, sugar free popsicles, water, crystal light, decaf tea of coffee, and 16 ounces of skim milk per day.
hmm....actually - its been hard to consume all that. I am supposed to drink two quarts of non calorie liquid a day - thats water, or crystal light or whatever.....two quarts....thats alot.
oh...now I must go hug my boy who is mummaing me for attention.
so....all is moderately well.
worry not.
