My recovery is coming along. I didn't need any of the prescription pain meds today ... Yeah. But I am still on restricted activity. The pain is pretty much gone, but the internal bleeding caused an interesting rainbow of colors on my lower abdomen. Looks like I got run over by a truck.

It is getting pretty boring here at the house by myself. I have a follow up appointment day after tomorrow and hope I get the green light to resume normal activities.

I do get a lot of calls from folks checking up on me. I find it somewhat interesting that I haven't heard a word from my in-laws. I'm sure they know ... H's brother works with us - I can't believe he wouldn't tell them what happened. Odd. They aren't usually like that. I suppose I will call them tomorrow.

I received flowers from my D today. That was sweet.

My D gave me a gift certificate to a local day spa for Christmas. I think I will be putting that to use very soon! It's also time to touch up some gray hair. I see some serious pampering in the near future. The sad part about the gray touch-up is that H used to do that for me ... a lot cheaper at home than at the salon and he got pretty good at it. Oh well. At least the salon is a chance to meet some people and get some of the extras.

H called this morning but I haven't heard from him since.
