I can't believe it's already June 3rd. I had my surgery on May 25th. I feel so much better
since that first day I came home. Not 100% that's for sure, but i'm getting there.
Except I had this horrid headache today, decided to take a nap to get it to go away. It
did work except I slept from 3-7pm. Wonder if I will be able to sleep tonight?
Since I felt guilty for sleeping so long, I did my duty and put my shoes on and me an the
dog took a walk down the street. We were able to go 2 blks and then come back. I'm not
sure if that's good or not. But I sweated! An felt a good accomplishment.

Sorry I missed last night, but I was reading this awesome book. LOL

Ok today has been an extremly long long day. An I am very tired. But since
i didn't tell you guys anything yesterday, I thought I best get on here and tell you
something today. 

Well it started off  I got to get new things at the store today, I was totally excited.
Imagine a 48 year old woman excited about Vegetarian Vegetable soup. I only ate 4oz of
it. But it was darn tootin good!  An I was full after eating it.

Of course I did buy all kinds of soups,  like cream of mushroom and potatoe, and hmm I did
forget the tomato. Oh well. I got cream of wheat, and Crystal light makes a hard candy NO Sugar, 25
calories. An I might add very tasty.  Fudgesicles no sugar, enjoyed every bit of it. But it's really hard to
figure out how to get all this food into me. I still not grasping all this, and what's weird I ate so much
more before.

Went to the doctor today, My personal doctor. I have an infection in my incision sites, and he's not sure if
it was from the surgical tape or what, because I was highly allergic to it. So I'm on 500 mgs of antibiotics.
Which I might add tastes nasty even in JUICE. Blech!!  He's also worried about my right leg, sometimes a
body part which isn't use to being in one position for a long time, like during surgery can cause some issues
on nerves, usually goes away, but it's affecting my sciatica, but.. Doc also said, that when the weight comes off
then that will help too. I have to go back on my coumadin, which I don't want too, but the sooner the weight comes off the faster I get off that pill which I've been on for 22 years.

Other than that he told me to start walking, which I did walked 1/2 way up the street, and back, and even took the dog, but she's very obedient and doesn't pull. So she is getting her excercise and so am I. Well I got to go it's starting to storm
Night
