Sleep!

 Wow!

For the first time since my surgery, I actually slept over seven hours. Every other night it’s been three hours , for hours, maybe even five. But having to sleep on my back has really been a challenge.

Also, yesterday, Ross, Laura, and Eloise came over for pizza, and Jaspen stopped by for a short visit before work. Alan got home just after Laura and crew left. That meant I got to see all my kids on the same day, even if not at the same time.

I’m also doing a tiny bit better with the pain, I tried using a muscle relaxer, tinzanadine, and that actually seems to help.

Maybe I’ll get  brave enough to takeoff the surgical compression bra for a few minutes and take a shower, but I’m not really sure if I’m that brave yet.
