Day 9...UGH

Are you as tired of reading about my recovery as I am being in the middle of it?

Oh.my.gosh.

Ready to feel like myself again!

Yesterday I posted about my BP being high. Well, this morning it still was, so I called my primary doctor. They on-call person said to go right away to urgent care or to the ER. See, I take blood pressure meds 2 times a day....so realistically speaking, my BP shouldn't have been 156/100, right? SO... my mom sat with the kids while I went around the corner to the urgent care! Told the doctor my other symptoms (won't bore/disgust you with those too)... and he just said that due to stress of the surgery and the fact that I'm still in a lot of pain, it's normal for my BP to be high. So he upped my BP meds and said to follow up with my PCP next week.

I came home and my mom sent be straight to bed! Geez, she's soooo bossy! But I like it! LOL... she dealt with the kids for the rest of the day! I stayed in bed resting! At one point, I took a drink of water and it felt like I had just downed a razor-blade. I am SO TIRED of this pain! I just wanna be "normal" again!

For dinner tonight, I made a nice spread! Yes, after being in bed all day, I got up and prepared dinner for The Bunch! I made meatloaf, baked potatoes, cheesy broccoli/cauliflower, and mac & cheese (for kids)! It was quite humorous as I fixed my plate... A big chunk of meatloaf, a baked potato (fully loaded) and a pile of cheesy veggies! Tim looked at my plate and said, "Are you miraculously recovered babe?"

Hahaha.... oops, I guess I am not REALLY going to eat all of that food! I ate 2-3 bites of each item...that was about all I could get down. BUT it was REALLY good! AND there's plenty of leftovers!

Cute moment for twins today:I came inside from taking out the dog and found Jonathan and Bella snuggling on the floor! I love how much they LOVE each other!

Thank you, thank you, thank you to my WONDERFUL mom for all of her help today when I felt less than acceptable! I appreciate you, mommy!
