Whirlwind

Omg you guys. 

What an insane couple of days I've had! 

I've been incredibly anxious about my upcoming procedure, although it's out-patient and so not a big deal.

And it's a short week due to the Easter holiday.

And work was just literally insane for 3 days in a row. Monday was ok, but man, Tuesday through today really tested my mental strength.

I'm trying to make sure my entire workload is buttoned up and easy for my teammates to handle. 

And dealing with clients and their crazy requests.

Dealing with last-minute projects that I am able to wrap up this week.

I'm now 4 days post op and feeling pretty good! I'm having minimal pain and just a lot of soreness and over discomfort, but nothing that's too bad. 

I'm taking Tylenol if it gets too bad.

I probably could've blogged a few times during the last couple of days, but I really, really wanted to just rest and take it easy. It's not often that I'm SUPPOSED to sit on my ass and do nothing but watch TV and eat, so I'm trying to soak it up.

I should be feeling 90% of myself by Monday, is what I'm thinking. 

Steve has been amazing of course and has been doing everything for me that he can think of. Even though I'm not that bad and can do a lot of things myself, he's still offering and getting up and doing it. 

He also took the girls to school for me yesterday and today. 

I mean, if I HAD to drive them, I'm sure I could, but it's nice not to have to. I'm still struggling to lift my arms above my head, and it does hurt a little to turn the steering wheel. I did pick them up from school yesterday.

I can't work out for at least 3 weeks. That's going to be tough! I am already feeling lazy and a little gross from not moving around too much. I know I have to take it easy and I don't want to injure myself, so I have to take it easy and just do what the doctor orders. 

After 3 weeks, I can do light legs - which is probably a good thing because I haven't been loving doing lower body the last few weeks so having to focus on them will be a good thing, I think. 

ANYWAY. 

Sorry for the long absence - now that I'm on the mend, I'll be back to posting more regularly!
