So I had my appendix out a few days ago, which was a bit of a surprise. I'm not sure what I thought the recovery would be like, but I'm a lump.
I'm a lump of drug induced inactivity. I was pretty sure that I would be up and out of bed in a day or two and at the grocery store on day 3, and so far? Not so much. I sort of feel like I gave birth but without the baby bonus. All of my organs are moving weirdly, I am super swollen and my muscles feel like I just pushed a baby out. Except for a painful vagina that is. Ha! Ha!
So, I'm trying really hard to sit still and not do much. I'm bored and while I thought I was going to be very productive, and I have not been...even a little. I had visions of writing to get very ahead of my deadlines. Not stuff you want to know about, but there is actually a fair amount of work that goes into this blogging gig. I had visions of contacting more vendors for a super awesome new baby giveaway I have coming up in April with my friend Rebecca, but as I was pretty foggy on Percocet, its probably for the best. (Excuse me, Mr. Super Awesome Stroller Guy, can I have one of those?)
That was my vision. Reality is that I get super excited if I put pants on for the day. The good news is that I am showering. Everyone is thankful, I am sure. The kids are really confused and upset that they can't climb and hug all over me. Poor little sweethearts.
The great news is that I am getting better every day. Any day now I will leap out of bed with abandon, skip to my bootcamp yoga class and be on my merry way. Or I may just head to Florida on Tuesday and whine to my dad about my boo boos. Yeah, probably that.
xo,
Christy
