Making it through

So today is the first day that I felt like even approaching the laptop to add to this blog. It's too bad because I had some really good thoughts over the past few days. Like a list of lies they tell you at the hospital. Lie #1: Stool softener will only soften your stool. Or a list of important things you learn the name of while in the hospital. Item #1: That yellow thing that looks like a pamper that they put on your bed under your derriere is called a "yellow chuck."

I am post op Day 7. Hard to believe it's been that many days. Today's accomplishment is being able to bend down - or rather squat down - to pick up something from the floor. I can also get up and down from the toilet more easily. I've decided I don't like percocet - it completely slows me down and puts me to sleep. So I'm doing half tablets now.

Ok. So I'm tired now. More later!
