Patience has never been my virtue. So, sitting around and healing from surgery is a difficulty of its own! I have time off work, my Mom is here taking care of meals and the baby! In fact, she is even taking Kaylee shopping for "back to school" clothes." I have more time on my hands than I've had in....I can't even remember when! But, it is totally useless.
There are a ton of wonderful things I could get done, only I can't! Healing is a tiring job. Sometimes, I'm awake and can have enjoyable conversations, but I can't seem to concentrate on a book without falling asleep! I just slept all night for the first time since the surgery. The good news is that I got some good sleep, the bad news is that I went a long time without a pain pill! It wasn't a lovely morning!
Mom washed my hair for me (my arms have the usage of a T-Rex right now). I took a bath and had some help brushing my hair. By the time I had fresh PJ's on, I felt like I had run a half marathon!
I have to remind myself that it is okay to slow down, rest and just heal.
