Tuesday Roll Call
Hello everyone
My first day back was fine. I also worked out yesterday. I did have to cut back a little on the cardio. I just felt I couldn't do the whole 60 minutes...so I did 40 minutes. I figure I will do 45 today and work my way up slowly to 60 minutes this week.
It's freakin' cold out there...Brrrrr.
My daughter always the worrier, found something to worry about. The Christmas plans were- they spend Christmas Eve with his mom and extended family, Christmas morning with his dad (they are divorced) and they would come up and spend Christmas afternoon and evening with me. Now my daughter is all upset about me spending Christmas morning alone. I keep telling her it's not a big deal...but she has to worry anyway. I told her she needs to learn that she has to divide her time now that she is getting married. I would never expect her to spend all of her time with me and not his family...I have to share her now. But she is still upset. OMG...she worries too much. I told her the plans were fine the way they are. She has to stop worrying about me.
Well I hope everyone stays warm and has a good day.

Morning Crystal.
Don't worry about Amanda. I am the same way with holiday plans. Trying to make everyone happy and see all the families.
Glad you are able to work out. Take it easy and don't over do it to much.
Going into work at 10 this morning. Counting down the days til Friday then on vacation next week. Need to start wraping some gifts here pretty soon.
Have a warm and safe day!

Good morning Crystal and the rest of Illinois!
I am working today and glad to hear that your day went well. I did pretty good too, just tired early.
I have my middle school theater group's Christmas Party tonight, then the high school group's tomorrow night. Tis the season for being busy!
Most of my gifts have arraived here at work so now I just have to get the wrapped. Uggghhhh! I used to LOVe to wrap, but now, I don't seem to have the time. I am going to try to get a few done each day.
Sorry that Amanda is worried, but she will get in the groove as she travels life's path.
Everyone have a wonderful day!

Good morning cyber friends, (Read at your own risk, may be gross)
Sorry I did not post yesterday but it was a day from HE--!! Never in my life did I feel like i did yesterday. My stomach hurt so much; between being constipated and natural soreness, it was awful. I took some stool softener in the morning and around 3:30 it worked. The only problem was it hurt so much coming out. I even felt the strength of the fecal matter on my incisions. The rest of the day I just felt so lethargic.
I am having a horrible time getting the protein in, mainly because the ones I have tried taste horrible. Nothing in fact tastes good. I have no desire to even eat. I am trying to get the liquid in, not doing well there either.
Last night I was so tired, I ended up going to bed in tears, wondering what I had done and why I did this to myself. I woke up at 1:30 am, and came back to the tv room. I figured I would sit with a cup of ice and try to get some fluid in. I did pretty good, ate most of the ice and fell back to sleep around 4. My hubby, he has been so kind during all this, woke me up and sent me back to bed.
Just to make things worse, not only am I healing from the doctor's torture, my female friend thought it would be fun to show up!! CRAP!!
I know some people go back to work after 10 from surgery, but how do they do that? I could not imagine going back to work just yet. I am so fortunate that as a teacher I have the natural break coming up to completely heal.
Sorry for the ramble, but I know this is a safe place and you all know what I am going through. Thank you.
Debbie

BIG HUGS to you, Debbie!
We have all "been there, done that" and I feel for you. Try to relax and everything will work out.
Don't worry about the protien, it will come in time. The fluids are the most important, snd just sip, sip, sip.
You are really doing FANTASTIC! Keep it up.
Tell someone that you love them!

Good Evening.
Crystal, You needed the week off so you could come back to workand be there.
Amanda will learn that you can't be everyplace all the time. Right now this is all new to her.
Christmas eve, I think both, Monica and Annette will be here, then we go to bloomington for Xmas Day, and Annette and Rick stay home. Thats what they decided to do.
Chris, i will be making mine this weekend.
Debbie, calm down. You can't possibly eat as much protein as you think you can at this time. You aren't even a week out yet. Just try to get as much water as possible in, and you will be fine.
I hope Karen is ok. I am sure she will post as soon as she is able to.
Dawn, you and Monica should get together and do a wrapping party. Ok. I know that wouldn't work, but at least you would both get it done.
Of course, I can gloat, since I have all my shopping done, cookies made, menus planned and ect, ect, ect.
Working tomorrow and Thursday, off Friday. Have a great night and stay safe.
Hugs,
LISA
