aaaahhhhh!

Sometimes it amazes me just how much of an idiot I can be! I know we generally like being a bit weird, but stupid is probably closer to the reality for me lately.

I have surgery and am determined not to sit at home too long. Good plan, as far as it went. Sitting at home alone for too long would depress me, agitate me and invite extra eating. So, back to work I go, and then expect myself to do full days and feel fine. Not so much...I am tired right out by 3 pm, I'm not preparing good meals, cause I'm too tired to by then. So that tells me that I probably should be resting by noon, rather than over extend. So tomorrow I implement that part of the plan and see how I feel next week. I think the fact that they are able to do the laparoscopic surgery lends itself to discounting that it's still major surgery and I'm old, like Pete!

So after a rough start to the day (eating a chocolate chip cookie right after breakfast) and some support from one of my angels, (thanks Cory!) I learned a lot! That feels like a productive day. I don't mind being an idiot if I learn something from it!

Thanks all, for letting me share my learning, elly
