A weekend of recovery

For the past four days we have been sans kids....once I scheduled my surgery my parents offered to take the kids Friday after school until today, Monday, since neither kid has school today to help me with being able to recover....and I think more so for Andrew's sanity.....juggling everything that a mom just does naturally does not come easily to the dads.....he has done great....but I know Thursday night he was reaching his breaking point....it was a good thing that both kids had school on Friday to jump start his break time....but it was nice being able to just hang out and not have to worry about feeding or entertaining small ones....I didn't feel guilty for sleeping in....or taking a nap mid day....thanks to the medication they gave me for pain management that has left most of the recovery week alittle hazy....

I am still not 100%....but I am getting there...I am supposed to go back to work tomorrow....it maybe a split day....we will see how it goes....I still get tired and I am still under restrictions....no lifting or driving....or moving my head....my post op appt is next week....where I hope I will at the very least not have to use glad press and seal in the shower!
