G'day, folks.
I had a busier day than I perhaps should have, but I had tried to get out of as much as I could.
The day began with a friend visiting with a large bunch of flowers. She then stayed to help me declutter a little (I had to call a halt, things were beginning to hurt a bit much) then I had a meeting to go to (husband drove). I got done what I had to do, then we headed home via the supermarket for dinner supplies. husband bought a chook while I bought some fruit & vegetables.
We went straight to mother in law's place (stopping home for a few minutes to grab stuff) where I got dinner on (roast chicken and roast vegetables I'd had peeled earlier) then I went to lie down for an hour or so. I needed that rest!
We ate dinner at MILs (she still needs our help to make sure she's eating right) then I headed home to get in touch with you guys and get to bed a bit earlier (hopefully).
Tomorrow we head to the train track (if I'm up to it). The local anaesthetic is wearing off, should all be gone by tomorrow, so I'll be able to know exactly what I can handle. I'll be able to spend the day resting in the car if I need to. I'm taking lots of cushions plus a book to read. Grabbing leftovers from the fridge plus the fruit & Turkish bread I bought this afternoon, for a picnic lunch. husband is ready to leave early if I need him to, we'll stop at the fish market on the way home (fish for dinner) then the drive home takes us past some of the best beaches on the east coast.
How I go tomorrow will tell me if I'm well enough to go into the city on Monday afternoon for play rehearsals. In the drama group they know I've had surgery, but not what for. I told them I was having a day surgery procedure, they don't need to know any more than that. So if I don't turn up, they'll be OK with it. But there will be some new stuff there, I'd like to be there at least for that. But not if I'm still too fragile.
Oh well. Today has been busy, productive and informative (in terms of what I can handle). Well see what tomorrow brings.
For now, it's time for me to go to bed.
have a good Saturday, everyone.
