Re: I'm bored
my currently-reading shelf:
In general I've just had a really blah day today.. not really sure why. I slept in till 8:30 so I should have felt great but nope that wasn't the case. I sat around all morning and didn't do too much, this afternoon DH had a Dr. appointment so we went and did groceries in Costco after that. Got home late, 7:30ish ate dinner, and now I'm just chilling on the couch feeling bored because I don't feel like doing anything.
Doesn't help I've had a slight headache all afternoon and it kinda went away but now it's back.
Tomorrow is Gall Bladder u/s day ugh... so no food tonight anymore or anything to drink once I go to bed. Not even a sip when I get up in the morning.. not looking forward to that because by the time my appointment rolls around at 8:30 I'll be starving and super thirsty!

It's a crummy situation but so normal for pregnant woman to get problems with it.. I guess I'll go with the flow.
Last night I said to MIL that as crappy as it is I'd take the problems that I've had over having to be on strict bedrest. Someone MIL works with has been on strict bedrest in the hospital for the last 4 weeks and they hope to keep her there as long as possible.

I was on bedrest for a month one time after one of my foot surgeries. This after over a week in the hospital. I was going CRAZY!
I actually snuck out one night and drove around with my IV bag hanging on the inside roof of my car.

I'm a cashier at a grocery store. I was on my feet 8 hours a day 5 days a week. I didn't drink enough fluid either which didn't help.

I was 20 and stubborn. That hour felt so amazing though.
I bet it did!!
ETA: did they figure it out that you had gotten out of bed?

What was moderate? Were you allowed to get up to shower and that is about it? How long were you on that? (I am sure I knew this - terrible memory)
No, I eventually healed and moved on. I was staying with my parents at the time so I am sure they knew and ignored me. I was a terrible patient when I was younger. I was stubborn, a smoker, and did "what I wanted". My reward was the bed rest.
Is this based on healing? Or all the work with E? I think either are a lot! It is tough to get back to FT after being PT for awhile.
Do you have to work evenings etc with that though?

Good night Johlise! Hope you feel better soon.
It was rough but the results have been so worth it. We went from November until the end of January without a single doctors appointment. It's amazing how great that felt. Now we are just waiting for the phone call to get Edmund's next surgery on the books.
Nght Johlise! I will be thinking of you tomorrow!
I bet, I can only imagine! How many more surgeries will he have?
Right now there are a lot of ifs. I have come to realize that I can only worry about the one that is certain. I would drive myself crazy if I worried about all the others that may happen eventually. I will worry about those when they tell us that he has to have them.
