I was only out a week and it was xmas so not much. I shopped and wrapped. Slept a lot between walks.

I hope to work on stained glass... some...

I had the same question! I was sleeved on May 7 and will start walking more next week but besides that I'm also cooking for the food phases and freezing them but after that....then what?

I'm with janarae! I have young children so I don't get any time off!

I organized the garage, cleaned out my service van, ran some controls related service calls (under the radar), irritated the heck out of the wife.......that's about it so far.

Hopefully I get clearance to return to work at next Wednesday's post-op Dr. visit.......I'm goin' nuts.

I was sleeved last Wednesday and I'm really bored already. My kids are keeping me busy though and are happy I'm home more. I haven't been sleeping the same since before surgery so I.have even more time being up early everyday.

Watched Netflix, read, worked on a puzzle, relaxed.

If you can afford it you could always take a vacation..... Even if its a stay-cation and explore your town. That way you would be moving your body. We all wish for time to do things in life, but when we get the time we sometimes forget what we wanted to do.

Have fun!

What did everyone do while off work?

I was off for a month. Took the maximum days allowed by my employer. Stayed in town, but ran errands and got a lot of personal things done. I go back tomorrow. Figured I would be okay since my employer supplies me with most of what I need.

Life of a mother :) I am blessed with an amazing husband who is hands on when he's home and my parents live with us so they helped out a lot.

Rest when you can :)

I have four kids So it has been great to have this time off because baseball started for my 2 oldest the week before my surgery. I've been running around like crazy with these kids!
