Officially cd1

I guess if I'm going to talk to myself, might as well do it in my journal. Today is cd1, officially. The pain has been somewhat manageable. I got slammed while at the copier and thought I was going to pass out, but it did go away. The NSAID is only lasting 4 hr, but should be lasting 6. Those last two hours are hard even with a Therma Care patch. What does a normal AF feel like?? Four more days until I learn if my tonsils are keepers or not. I'm really worried about the recovery period. I wonder how much of my personal leave will get eaten up? I just really don't know what to expect. Sounds like a Laporoscopy is easier than a tonsillectomy. I wonder how much like crap I'll feel like. We got lots more snow. Broke a record yesterday. My VW is wonderful!! I bought K and I new extendable scrappers. Mine broke last year and K's is getting there. They weren't too badly priced. They are bright yellow, so ppl will see the scrapper in the low visibility and know that someone is walking around their car. Thought that might be a good safety feature. Babysat M last night. He's such a wonderful little boy. He snuggled with Uncle K, who really dug that. He wanted to stay up until his parents got home, but I knew that if he snuggled in my lap, he'd be ready for bed in know time. Plus, I really needed to lay down from the pain, so I layed with him on top of me on the couch and rubbed his back. Worked like a charmed. Pretty soon his was ready to move to his own bed "by himself", as he likes to say it. All the snuggling made me really want one of my own. K went to fbks today. He wasn't really thrilled that he had to go, but at least it's only for the day. He'll be back about 8pm tonight. I hate it when I can't talk to him during the day. When he started traveling for his job, I started praying over him before he left. Now he doesn't like to leave unless I do that. It makes me feel like he knows how much I love him when he goes. That way if anything every went wrong while he was gone, he'd know and I'd know. I don't ever want to doubt that he knows I love him and I don't want him to ever doubt it. That's about it for right now.
