MONDAY, MONDAY

I binge-watched Mary Tyler Moore all day yesterday and managed to catch the halftime show of the SuperBowl, but that's about it.  Pain and discomfort are worse now than they were right after surgery, so I am doing nothing but sleeping to try to avoid it.

Tonight is Grocery Guild, and I am determined to get some shoes on and go, even if it's only for a minute or two.  We are turning in our pilot projects, and despite the fact that mine is incomplete, I at least want to submit my notes.

Thank you for your lovely encouragements lately.  I'm not going to lie...this week has been really rough, but your kindness has really gotten me through!

(But I still want my Mommie).

Ciao for now!  Hope your week is off to a rip roarin' start!

  2. Coni, dear... call the doctor's office and 1) confirm that this pain in normal, and 2) ask for a stronger pain med. And if that pain med makes you loopy, you'll probably sleep better. Just avoid stitching since you don't want to frog it out later. Hope you feel better soon.

    1. I agree with checking in with the Doctor. A phone call to at least the nurse to check in with the pain issues may help to avoid a possible infection. Trouper or not - be smart about the pain level. Just do it - you will not be interupting anyone and you may help yourself. Love you Coni - just make the call.

    2. Good and loving advice ladies. I don't know much about your procedure Coni but usually 2nd and 3rd day post op are the most uncomfortable ones. Best to give the office a call.
      Sometimes we women try to tough things out too much.

  5. Agree with all the wonderful ladies...call your doctor's office. You were probably debriefed post-op, and were told about how many days the pain would last and how intense it might be, but it's never a bad idea to check in with the doctor. Otherwise, I hope you get to Guild and have a great time amongst stitching friends.

  11. Freaking Windows 10 ate my comment. If it spits it back out and there are two, sorry.
    Please follow your friends' advice and check with the office. Check your temp too to see if you're running a slight fever. If it's nothing to be concerned about, we'll feel better.
