A Day In the Life of Recovery....
Thursday, February 01, 2007
7:15 a.m. - Wake Up and make sure Son C gets the ice off his car before leaving the driveway to go to school. Also repeat rules of the road for driving on ice and snow at least 2 times before hearing "I know Mom, I know."
7:20 a.m. - Crawl back in bed.
7:30 a.m. - Watch Hubby K dress (highlight of my day) and get off to work from the bed.
7:30 - 8:30 a.m. - Toss and turn - can't get back to sleep.
8:30 a.m.- Get up, slowly - let dog out, let cat in. Eat some strawberry oatmeal (uck!).
8:45 a.m. - Phone call from doc's office cancelling my 3 week checkup! (Snow!)
9:30 a.m. - I need a shower!
10:30 a.m. - Bob Barker told me to "COME ON DOWN!" so my hiney gets firmly planted on the couch.
10:45 a.m. - Phone call from Daughter T and 11 month old Grandson "Bee". Have a lengthy conversation with Bee regarding his fever and stuffy nose. Grandma's always understand baby talk, right?
11:00 a.m. - Y&R (soap)
12:00 p.m. - All My Children - (hiney still firmly planted on the couch)
12:30 p.m. - Hunger gets me - fix a lunch of tuna and crackers - (Yum Yum)
1:00 p.m. - One Life to Live (see hiney notation above)
1:30 p.m. - Son C calls from school (on friends cell phone from restroom). "Mom, can you call and check me out? No one is here (snow day) and we're only going to watch TV in 4th block." Sure, why not since they aren't watching important things like OLTL.
2:00 p.m. - General Hospital (am glad Sonny doesn't know how big my hiney is!)
3:00 p.m. - Snack time - V8 Fusion - I SO love these!
4:00 p.m. - Son C pops in and insists that I come look at the tires and wheels he's purchased second hand from someone he met at Auto Zone - me thinks this is another reason to check him out of school early??
4:30 p.m. - Lounging on the couch with Coco watching Oprah - with intervals of gazing out the window watching the snow and wishing Hubby K would hurry home.
5:00 p.m. - HE's HOME! Yea - Yea - Yea!
This has been almost my normal day for 2 1/2 weeks recovering from my hysterectomy. Somehow, I've lost 7 pounds - amazing. But I've been eating pretty good thanks to Hubby K. Not much junk at all (except for the 2 Reeses that he brought me.)
Save ME! I'm so ready to go back to work!
