At my desk, writing away.
First time I have been back at the computer since getting home. Been a week, feels like a lot longer.
Taking some getting used to. The line of staples down my belly ( I have such sympathy now for all those fish I've gutted and filleted over my years of fishing and camping... ) is making it hard to find a comfortable angle to sit at in my "chair of no back support". Going to be limiting me to short sessions in front of the computer for a while I think.
Typing is being kind of tricky too. I can to a degree type pretty well one-handed ( and keep your minds out of the gutter, this is because I often had a Coke in my other hands over the years ) so the splint is making things awkward more then really slowing them down.
Trying to get back into the routine of my life though. Gut pain gets a little less everyday as the big gash down my abdomen heals / seals itself back up. Appetite is still pretty meager though, my stomach hasn't really gotten over the shock of someone taking it outside of my body and shaking it around before stuffing it back in.
Am discovering how much things I never really thought about weighed though and how much of my lifting strength was in my tummy muscles. Not supposed to be lifting things weighing more then 5 lbs right now and I have this nagging worry that my comforter is pretty dang close to that. Heavy dang beast of a bedding object. That more then anything else I think has made me feel like an invalid.
Geez. Gone for a week and OneWord had all sorts of neat words to write about. Oh well. Will have to make sure not to get myself hurt like this again for that reason alone. *grins*
My CoV pre-order box arrived last Friday. Have looked at it a little, but not played around with the cd of goodies and promo stuff it came with yet. May do that later. Will probably finish this and go try to nap again for a while.
Glad that I was able to blog by celphone while I was in the hospital. Couldn't read what you all wrote, but was nice to at least be able to let you all know I was still alive and missing you all.
Slightly amused that the spellchecker for blogger doesn't recognize 'blog' as a validly spelled word.
In case I forget to say it later, as I am a forgetful goof at times, you are all great friends and it was fun to read your comments this morning. Thanks. I'll have to think of something nice I can do for you all later to make up for putting up with me getting hospitalized and disappearing for a week and stuff.

Welcome back, and take care of yourself now. And after all, if this isn't an excuse NOT to make your bed, I don't know what is! (Says the girl who is obsessive about making her bed each morning, and can tell when pillows have been moved on it. I know, I have a problem.)

*ponders making bed more then pulling blankets up and putting pillows back at the top...and then stops*

I would probably think I had stumbled into the wrong house if I found that someone had made my bed. Usually I leave it pretty much as I left it when I get out of it in the morning and just straighten the sheets and blankets when I go to get back into it.
