A quick update
1. Surgery/healing: Going well. Saw the doc this morning and he is very pleased. I'm still retaining a lot of fluid so the nurse squeezed me like Violet from Willy Wonka. I don't recommend this for fun. Really. She gave me a abdominal binder to wear so I can get all that fluid out. I'm one hot sexy momma so watch out!
2. I've had quite a few folks ask me for pictures. I'll do my best to have someone take a pic this weekend. I'm leery of it still because of the swelling in my belly area, but I know everyone is curious.
3. I am absolutely exhausted. Ben is still not sleeping right and CG and I acknowledge it's our fault. I'm reading a book to help us get him on a sleep schedule. I've been cleared to lift him so we can implement the plan (I'm using the book "The No-Cry Sleep Solution For Toddlers".) It takes about a month to kick in. Today's plan is to work on his bedroom and get it ready for him. I'll pick him up a nightlight tomorrow at Target as well.
4. My personal debit card is not working. The joint account works fine, just not my personal card. It's irritating and I have to call the bank in a mo to find out what's going on.
5. The sleep deprivation is causing me to overeat. I'm hoping to get back on track today. It helps that I stocked up on microwave popcorn and veggies again.
6. Did I mention I'm tired yet? After I pick up Ro from school I will be taking a very long nap before heading to meeting. Dinner for the family is chicken quesadillas. I think they can handle making those. I think.
7. I took out a bunch of cd's from the library yesterday, including The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King soundtrack. Yay!
8. Yesterday was a wonderful beautiful, joyous day. I cried and held Ben tight. History was made and we were all witnesses. That is just made of awesome.
9. I will be at SCA meeting in Cleveland tonight. I have rehearsal from 7:30-9, then I'll be taking care of business. I've missed everyone and can't wait to see folks!
