slowly getting better

Hi everyone, thanks for reading this blog.
Sorry for taking so long to do this post.
This is the second day that I am feeling better, so I must be getting over this flu thing.  My appetite is getting back, but I have to go easy with food, but it feels soooo good to eat again.

The last couple of days the pain and discomfort from my surgery has kicked in a bit as well as the drainage.  I don't think it is a bad thing.  It is supposed to be draining (by the way it is gross and unpleasant).  I think the pain is supposed to be getting better... maybe... at least it is supposed to be more bearable than it was before the surgery.

My fatigue has also kicked in a lot. I think that has to do with my lack of sleep this past week because of the flu.  Now that I can breathe again, I can actually sleep.  So I guess my body is trying to catch up.

Anyways, if there is something I can add to make this whole blog more enjoyable to read, please let me know.

Fun fact.  you know I love sports.  So, I am the same age as Tiger and Jennifer Capriati.

now to see about another music video to add

Counting down to follow up visit

Hi Everyone! Thank you so much for your prayers and support.  It has really helped.  One of the things I observed when I started concelebrating Masses was how patient you all are with me.  So many of you expressed your prayers and concern for me and simply want me to get better and to do whatever it takes to get well again.  Thank you so much for this!  I could not have possibly dreamed of asking for more. So physically what has life been like lately.  Well, one word: pain.  Yesterday I ran errands up in Tallahassee and paid a price for it.  A good amount of bleeding and a ton of pain when I got back home.  I think what adds to the suffering is the fatigue of hurting like this.  But oh well. I am getting more excited about heading to my follow up appointment.  Jim and I know what to expect and how things are, so in a way it will be a lot easier.  I hope and pray they will do the surgery next week that will solve everything...

recovery from big day

Wednesday evening I celebrated Mass at St. Elizabeth.  It was good to do, but it was way more painful than I thought it would be.  I was hoping it wouldn't be so bad so I could take over the weekday Masses at both places again, but unfortunately, that will have to wait.  I am planning on concelebrating Masses at both parishes this weekend.  Hopefully that will be more manageable. So yesterday I slept most of the day and I feel very tired and weak today.  It isn't fun feeling like this especially since it is so beautiful outside.  I would love to be on a tractor right now or tending a burn pile... anything productive outside would be a dream. It is so frustrating, but then I looked at my calendar and realized that it was only 2 weeks since my surgery.  It feels so much longer, probably because of the flu.  Ahhhhh, patience. I am so grateful that everyone else seems to understand my situation better than I do.  I feel so guilty at times f...
