First Full Day at Home
I got a good night's sleep last night which surprised me because I slept a lot after arriving home. The sorness around the incisions persists but it is much easier to move and get in and out of bed as well as the chair.
I have been up most of the day but will most likely head for a nap pretty soon. Recovery is nice because no one gets on your case for napping. As I have gotten older I have appreciated the timing of a well placed nap during the day. This is how I expected to feel right after surgery but it has taken me a couple of days to get there.
I have a much greater appreciation for those who have gone through surgery and really know what it means to experience incisions in the abdomen and how much those muscles are used for everything.
I realize how i need to take it slow and not try to do too much too soon.
Some new glass came while I was in the Hospital so I am anxious to see how it comes out in the kiln. I also have some new pieces I fused on Wednesday but have not had time to get them online yet most of these pieces can bus made into earrings so I may go that route. I am feeling up for visitors if not too many at a time. I appreciate all the prayer support i have received it sure has made a difference
