That Was Easy

*Cue photo of the big red "Easy" button from the local office supply store commercials.

Staples are out.

Guess I'm healed enough to not fall apart without them.

Guess I can go through airport security again...

Today was better than yesterday, as far as pain and movement go, but I was more regular with the pain meds today than I was yesterday.

Pretty much down to extra strength acetaminophen and regular strength ibuprofen together, and it seems to be doing the trick. We'll see how tonight is.

I can see that five more weeks of "nothing" is going to be harder than I anticipated.

I don't mind not "doing", but I do need to be needed, and it's a little hard to see the guys getting along just fine without me. I imagine that in a few weeks, when I "feel" fine it will be even harder to stand by and let them do the lifting and carrying. And cleaning and tidying.

Ah, well.

I suppose it'll keep me humble.

Let's take it one day at a time.
