So I go in for surgery tomorrow... a laproscopic decompression on my shoulder. Recovery time till I can use my right (dominant) arm again is 7-10 days. The surgery doesn't make me nervous- the recovery makes me a bit nervous... it's the not having a clean house that is freaking me out a bit.
Seriously, when did the martha stewart gene kick in because it's a new thing for me? We might be having some folks over in a couple weeks (going away get together for some dear friends who are moving before the holidays) but I told everyone there is a 50/50 chance we are all just meeting at a restaurant.
I just wanted everything clean so I can have people come visit my I'm not allowed to drive but out in the suburbs where I can't walk to anything butt. So off to work and will try and finish cleaning this evening <sigh>
Oh and funniest thing about the whole surgery H was getting all nervous about timing of sexy time and I asked why- he said... well you don't want to get pregnant and have surgery b/c you have to take all those pain meds and that'd be bad for a baby, right? Not sure but cracked me up that he was thinking that way and it was not on my radar at all. Very cute. Okay I feel better- thanks girls!

Good Luck. H had the same surgery in July. He's well on the mend now. I'd recommend having a few button down shirts for the first week or so, but they had him in PT within 5 days.
PS he was up for sexy time after a week.
