Steffany's Post-Surgical Rant.


A rant by Steffany. The gallbladderless wife.

Recovering from surgery is a giant bowl of lamesauce. I hate being home all day having nothing to do and not feeling good. I'm sure everyone feels that way. The day of surgery I was so numb everything felt great! Tuesday was painful, yesterday was nausea all day, and today is just exhaustion with a bit of incision pain.

All in all I think I'm almost completely recovered! Husband has taken such good care of me. He's gotten me food to try to eat when I feel sick, laid with me when I was in pain, he even bought me a pink road bike yesterday so we could ride soon which I'm super looking forward to. It was only $25! He's going to add new wheel tubing or something.

I'm ready to get back to work and not be a walking wuss factory. But I realize my body needs time to get back to normal so I'm trying to let it happen that way. Lots of reading and watching Netflix is making it possible. 

On another note a few things I'm excited for with the arrival of Spring/Summer...

-bike riding everywhere
-adventures
-school classes I'm interested in
-lake trips
-camping
-music playing outside
-warm weather
-4th of July
-trip home to California
-moving upstairs to the 2 bedroom apt
-getting out more

Just to name a few. :)

I'm grateful for the blessings I have and especially for my husband this week. He's a champ. I'm going to go attempt to make pizza before he gets home and see how long it takes this old lady version of me.
