2 Weeks Out!!

Today almost to the minute 2 weeks ago I had surgery. I must say that the recovery has been pretty easy, at least once I have gotten home ( and not running through customs and ATL 2 days after surgery!) but there really hasn't been anything I couldn't or can't do, I probably shouldn't have been holding my big baby 4 days after surgery, but what am I to do leave her in her crib? Eating is getting a little trickier, ecspecially when I am out. I need to figure out how to work around that, I LO

Back to the real world

Well, I have been back one week and have pretty much back to life as normal. Unless you count the sleeping almost 13 hours last night, but that was due to nipping some Tylenol PM at about 2 in the morning b/c Er woke me up when he came to bed and I couldn't get back to sleep. I have been kind of debating with myself if I should detail my expierence on her about the whole trip to MTY. I go back and forth on my feelings about it. I know that I am a picky person and have worked in the medical
