congrats on getting back to your normal morning routine :)

you've progressed slowly but surely these past 11 days :)

these last 4 days before going back to work...........try and slowly move around more - staying up all day

gradually get back into the groove so you won't be overwhelmed on friday :angry:

that being said - sneaking in a couple of naps during the day would be nice too :)

12 hour shifts (nurse??)

any chance you can take another week off, or at least a few day???

or "maybe" go back and work 1/2 days for a week???

good luck

I got the hair done and a partial makeup accomplished today, day 8 for me. I'm shooting for the whole shebang on Thursday for my follow-up appt with surgeon. LOL. Shoot, I have fever blisters so bad that I really don't even want to leave my house at all. Woke up with them on my first morning home from hospital.
