Well two weeks have now passed since I got home even and it is somewhat a surreal dream that I can't quite remember all of because quite frankly I was pretty drugged and sick...it was not fun.
And then it started getting better. And I was feeling quite well. And so I pushed...like I always do...and my body pushed back! Luckily I have grown a smidgen more realistic as the years have passed and realized especially in this case I needed to cease and desist all activity pronto and chill. I did...it's hard...VERY hard!!!! I have since realized I am actually just human and not really a superhero and should as such heal first and foremost and everything else can manage without me....whoa...I must be either still drugged or turning over a new leaf!
So to sum up...and I'm going to get detailed which is graphic so I totally understand if anyone wants to skip the next paragraph starting now.......Tuesday when I overdid it there was bright red blood and not a huge amount but more than had been at any time before and I freaked.....I have since done not much at all which probably for the best regardless but it has been okay and then totally stopped and the back to tapered form and I found a website which had some explanations including the passing of the stitches at about two weeks...which can often be kind of bloody.....sigh...I had no idea!!! Now...if it had continued..or does...I will call the Dr right away, I'm not completely crazy, but I am glad I found others who had similar experiences to help explain things and also that it stopped! Now to just get rid of the steri strips...because they are starting to itch...unfortunately not starting to curl like it says they should before you remove them soooo we'll see.......grrr....hey...I have to have something I can focus my frustration on, right? ;)
And I just want to clarify...I did in fact do a few things today. I gave a food allergy awareness speech for a friend's son's third grade class, where I stood and walked around a bit(waaay good for me) and I did go check in with and talk to my VB team that I'm coaching-but-not-so-much-b/c-I'm-hurt and I didn't even touch the ball!(Oh how I longed for it.....but I was good there too!) And then I went and sat and ate chocolates at the first PSO meeting of the year. Which was actually quite good....a lot of good information gathered and decisions made and then lots of great ideas for change too...just long...but that always happens the first time meeting!
And then I came home and helped herd the minis to bed and now I am finishing up my day with being reflective here which I do truly enjoy.
My obliques are "burning" at bit which is weird but hey..I stopped judging my body a few...... days ago ;)
Blog ya later-
