Just in case any of you are sitting at home or work and thinking, "wow, Meg just had surgery. I hope she's ok. Oh, poor Megan. She's sitting home all day and not going to work. That must be so hard for her." Well, it's not. I like it!!! Ok, no, I'm sure in two weeks when I go back to work I'll be ready. Anyway, I went to the doctor yesterday, who shocked me by saying I can drive and start wearing a regular shoe. I've never been a particularly careful person, but it just feels WAY too soon. I put a shoe on yesterday and drove to Target to fill a perscription. But on the way I stopped at the gas station 'cause I was totally out. And that was enough to tell me I was NOT ready to walk around Target in a regular shoe. It just felt so weird to walk in a regular shoe and I was limping and didn't have enough support and it hurt. So I went back home and never made it to Target. I'm going to try again today, but I have a plan. This time I'm going to wear my shoe when I drive, but put my boot on when I get there. Brilliant, eh? So yeah, I'm doing better. I'm not quite so reliant on pain pills anymore, and I usually get through the night without waking up in pain. So that's good. I'm up more than I was, which I'm sure Trevor loves because the poor guy has been working long hours then coming home and tending to me. I really felt bad about it. I made him cookies yesterday. He cleaned the WHOLE kitchen! I was shocked! Trevor doesn't clean often but when he does, he does a much better job than me! Well, that's all. Sorry no picture. Oh wait! How about I take a picture of my incision! That would be awesome! Hold on a sec...

I know it doesnt' look like much--only two stitches--but it's DEEP. So they haven't taken the suchers out yet, not until next Thursday, which means I STILL have to leave my right leg out of the tub. I hate that. But at least I can sponge bath it now. It's so gross. Amazing how such a small incision can cause such pain...

Glad you are doing so super! Wow. Cookies. What kind? I want some. I wish I had a car. I would come visit you. I really would. I am not just saying that either. I want to see your new home and just chill and chat. Hopefully, we will have a car before you go back to work. If Matt has his way we will have a car by the end of this week. I just hope we can agree on one.
Sure it's deep! Just kidding I believe you, those surgeries can be painful, glad you are doing well. Do you think this surgery will be better than the last one? Have fun recovering.
