Still on the Mend...

Im still recovering from surgery and let me apologize now for all these posts about surgery and recovering. Thats all Im doing and thats all my life consists of..so, you get to hear about it.

This past week was/is really frustrating. Im sick of feeling sick. Well, not really like Im sick...just not normal. I want to move around, drive, play with my daughter, eat normal things, not be nauseated ALL the time, not hurt, - you know, just be...NORMAL. I appreciate all the help Im getting, but I hate having to have it. PLUS...I lost my Rook and Monroe. That really pisses me off. I had to take out all piercings for the surgery. I got my Rook done in Las Vegas and I hate that I will have to get it redone anywhere else. About 5 days after surgery I tried to put them all back in and those two just refused to cooperate. *SNIFF*

I have major cabin fever also. Today hopefully I can go see Apocolypto with my Dad. He hardly ever goes to the "THEE-ater Showhouse" as he calls it so its always fun to go with him.

So Im just sorta blah and more blah. But I know I am mending. I actually took a shower without ANY assistance today. Its always a milestone when you can scrub your booty without intervention.

One unpleasant thing has started... keytosis. I know because I have an awful taste in my mouth constantly. Its not really bad breath - (imagine my relatives having to check my breath because Im so paranoid.) - Its just a really icky , fuzzy taste.

Im also supposed to be getting down vitamins and protein shakes, but I just cant right now. Even water makes me nauseated. Plus the protein drinks are gagarific. Mom Botts is nagging me TO DEATH about it. She is a vitamin ho for sure and in her eyes if you arent taking vitamins, then you are doomed for painful death. Imagine now that I dont eat anything, AND not taking vitamins. OMG she's on a warpath. If she ever asks, YES you are taking vitamins and YES you are pooping regularly.

Thats it for now.... Thanks again for all your well wishes, cards, and emails!

I know it probably is hard to take the vitamins but you SHOULD I 130% agree with Mom Botts... Try to gag them down sweety, they are for your own good! YAY for showering unassisted!
