Obviously I have way too much free time right now. Ok let’s call it healing, not free time. That way it doesn’t sound like I should actually be doing productive things. You know, something when I look back in 6 weeks I can feel I accomplished greatness. Cleaning the spare room, organizing the kitchen cupboards,... Continue Reading →
They know that water and sand are the best medicine.
I can’t believe it’s been 6 days since my hysterectomy. I have been doing my alternation of Tylenol and Ibuprofen with an occasional Valium. I think the weirdest thing is the feeling of my innards re adjusting. Every time I roll over or stand up I’m afraid things are gonna fall right out. I’m pretty... Continue Reading →
Day 4 and I can see the light at the end of the self pity tunnel
My whole world Ok, I can say with 100% honesty, that I was not mentally or physically prepared for the last 4 days. Day 1 is a blur, and honestly doesn’t really count. Any day that you’re trying to come out of anesthesia is a wash. Day 2 was miserable. I was awake enough to... Continue Reading →
3 fuzzy ass days with hysterectomy fog
Wednesday was the day before my hysterectomy. I worked all day which was actually good because it kept my mind off things, and kept me busy. Wednesday night I thought I deserved a last meal of sorts. I would have to fast after midnight, and on the off chance I died, I didn’t really want... Continue Reading →
Dear Uterus
Give me all the meds You and I have never really been friends. It’s always been more of an acquaintance relationship. I remember when we were first introduced. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I knew that I was a full fledged woman finally. I’m quite sure you and I didn’t meet until much... Continue Reading →
Hampton Highlights
Chuck took Friday off so that we could head over to Ypsilanti for a baseball tournament. The drive over was horrid. Pouring rain with very little visibility. I don’t know how he did it, because there’s no way in hell I could have made that drive by myself. If a white knuckled passenger was a... Continue Reading →
Feisty and Freaking Funny
Do you ever have those mornings where you just know you’re gonna be feisty? Not pissy and angry, but feisty. I had one of those this morning and I continued to entertain myself all day. I’m quite sure no one in world finds me as funny as I find myself. I’d totally be friends with... Continue Reading →
Manic Monday
Chuck has be in early the next couple of days which puts me on transportation duty. Brogan has to be at football practice at 7am. That is right in the middle of my morning routine. We all know how minor inconveniences really throw me off. As we were getting ready to leave, I looked up... Continue Reading →
Soggy Saturday
We had another baseball tournament this weekend. This time it was only 45 minutes away in Grand Ledge. Chuck and I got up early and headed to get the kids donuts and us some coffee creamer. Being out of coffee creamer has got to be equivalent to being out of toilet paper. Life altering, and... Continue Reading →
Friday Recap
Med check Friday morning started with a 10am doctors appointment. I’m not sick, I’m just monitored. It’s never been a secret that I struggle with anxiety and depression. I’m a vocal advocate for mental health awareness. My prescriptions do not by any means define me, they do however refine me. My doctor is pretty much... Continue Reading →
