It's good to be home.

Apr 09, 2011

...Came home on Friday and never thought I'd be so happy! There was no peace and quiet in the hospital as they were in the middle of major reconstruction on the floor beneath the one I was staying on and every morning the jack hammers began their day starting precisely at 7 a.m.!
Surgery went well, took a little longer than expected. Found out there was a hernia that needed repaired but other than that everything has been ok...pain is 'eh'. Every now and then I reach for the meds but don't want to use them until the pain is making my time sleeping too uncomfortable.

I've been drinking protein shakes (ok, shake as in 'one') since this morning, switching between vitamin water and throwing in a popsicle or two along the way. Frozen goodies seem to work best for me right now, they don't feel as heavy as the shake...too bad they don't make protein popsicles, I'd be their biggest fan! I'm thinking of opening a shake and pouring some into an ice cube tray and see if that might make them easier to go down. Any thoughts or tips? I'd love to hear them! :)
