Well, I'm finally back to post. I'm on the "other side" of surgery. My recovery is slow, but I am making progress---I think. I really don't do much these days---I have managed to get in a few short walks, but still don't have much energy and still on the pain meds. Tomorrow is a big day---I get my "staples" removed! I can't tell you how happy that makes me. My belly looks like someone installed a zipper! Hopefully, next week I'll start to see some improvement in my mobility and energy level. I do feel soooo much better---a lot of my aches and pains I had before surgery are gone---especially my back pain and I definitely feel "lighter". Anyway, that's where things stand at present........on the road to recovery..........

Well, once again time is just flying by.......where does it go. We have gotten a lot accomplished in the last few weeks. The den is now painted, the carpet pulled up ready for new, and the dreaded closet purged of all it's treasures. I did have a garage sale last Saturday, I hope my last, and sold a few things. We also started on the main bath. I'll post some pictures soon.

I wanted to get this post in before I leave for the hospital. Today is the big day for me. Surgery is at 8am. I know I'll be in the hospital for at least two days, but I'll post as soon as I'm up to it once I'm home. Again, thanks to all of you who have emailed your good wishes and prayers. It has been a great comfort to me. Thank you and see you on the "other" side.................
