going back to work :(

Feb 22, 2011

So monday was my first day back to work which was about 4weeks for me,, let me just start by saying the majority of the people got on my last nerve trying to be noisey about where I been....If I aint talk to you before I left work you already know keep it moving cause you gets no conversation from me at all...Other than that the day was smooth sailing as far as getting in my fluids and eating, I packed my bfast/lunch/snack bag which consisted of light tuna, string chesse, apple sauce and plenty of water.  The hardest thing for me was not being able to take a nap I had gotten so use to my afternoon nap but since I cannot take them during the day I find myself running to the bed once I get off of work.  Alot of people have nice things to say and I do appreciate that and than you have those miserable ones that stare but Im evil so I stare a hole in them to they turn they had..lol I know I shouldnt but they shouldnt be so rude anyhow today which is my second day of work was also good for the most part but the thing that got on my nerves today was the dumb disability people who cut your check while your out on leave- so last week this lady kept calling me bothering me trying to get me to come back to work Friday so I told her who goes back to work on a Friday which for my company is the last of the work week, she going tell me that if I dont come they wont pay me for that day so I told her she can do what she gotta do but I wont be in there to Monday than I thought about tht thing and called back and made a lil scene and of course they extended it to Monday sorry for being long winded but point is today they going ask me for a note to be release to come back to work...smdh how you stress me about comming to work now you going tell me I need a note before I can come...They really rubbed me but I kept it cool  and continued to enjoy my day....but until nxt time yall have a blessed day

how could somethings so wrong be so right??

Feb 10, 2011

well today I am 2weeks and a day out and sad to say I cheated on the liquid diet, see I been working out at least 20 minutes a day and I been feeling light headed so I decided to try  some soft foods cause I figured that I was light headed cause the liquids wasnt enough for the workouts that I was doing-so I had me a scrambled egg and a spoon full of Wendy's chill and I loved it even know I know that I have a week left and that I shouldnt be eating it; it felt so right... The best thing about it is that Im no longer light headed....Now I just gotta stay strong to finish this last week ...pray for me

Experience of day of surg. and after

Jan 31, 2011

SO I arrived at the hosp. about 6:15 the 26th, waiting about ten mins at the most and me and my mom were calld back so that I could undress, they said that the person before me had ate and drink something at 3am therefore I was being pushed up , at this point im excited Im like yes no time to even think about being scared, so they  move me and my lil bed to get the iv put in- keep in mind that they always have problems finding my veins- they say they tiny and being that I hadnt ate or drink anything they really were outta sight, after about 30 minutes of lets c who can find the veins, the ultra sound machine and about 5 different people looking thank god they finally got it, next all i remember is this man saying time for happy medicine and I went blank from there...that stuff really does put u under..lol a few hours later i remember them saying u done very well and from there on its been smooth sailing-but right after i said im going threw up so they gave me some medicine in my iv to help with that and it worked very quick and from there on I slept the rest of wed away, on thurs. I had little pain more so the gas was hurting my side, they got me up to walk that night because I sleep all of wed and for most of thur. i felt high as kit..lol and i kept falling asleep- but they said tht my walking was great as well and they asked me if i wanted to go home but I told them that I wanted to stay another day to make sure Im good and plus I loved my nurses they were the best along with the na my favorite nurese was sylvia and favorite na was kim. As Far as drinking proteins and getting enough liquids Ive done great with that from day one cause I stay so thirsty so I drink all day.  Friday was a great day I didnt need much pain medicine actually the most pain I was having was with my back for some reason my back has been in pain since surg. but my nurse says thats common and it should get better... and as of today it has- I havent really been home alone my honty being here supporting me which i was surprised about because we had been going through rough times but seeing how he put all that aside and being waiting on me hand and foot, I think im n luv again..lol and I cant wait to give em da business- oh yea did i mention that mother nature came on that thur. after surg..(perfect time to come early..lol) but as far as that goes i had not cramps, and its extra light and in fact it went off yesterday so Im trying to get it in tonite...lol



Im so glad that I decided to have this surg. because when I was researching on this site and reading everyones blogs and experiences at times it make me not want to have it done cause alot of people were sick and in alot of pain after surg. but for me its been good for the most part, I guess its true that every experience is different so anyone who is thinking about the surg. dont get discouraged off of what u read....until nxt time folks

the day before

Jan 25, 2011

I so tired of sitting on the toliet {tmi} but seriously how many times in one day can we take a ish, but on another note its going down tomorrow and I cannot wait, Im gotten pack being scared as ish now im excited and ready to get it on and poppin.  I have to be at the hosp. @ 6:30 and surg. will start at 8:30 well as least that what they told me but we all know how that goes but i'm hoping just this once we can be on time cause I am sure if I wait around the scared feeling will return.....They told me that most likely I will be home Thur. night which is great but just to be on the safe side I may have to be like I dont wanna leave till Friday, that is strange for me to say cause I hate the doc office but I figure the longer im in the hosp. the less time I have to worry bout being irritated by my fam....lol I love them but at times they work my last nerve. Well folks I will tell you bout how my surg. goes when I return
