I’m feeling super bloated and gassy after this surgery, which is normal they say, but it’s especially miserable today. I will be so glad when this feeling goes away.
Also, I am currently wearing an old sleep bra from when I had S because one of the incisions is right on my bra line. So I can’t wear a regular bra because it’s still tender. So sleep bra it is. Lol.

C likes to us my blush, powder and eye shadow. I got him a small silvery eye shadow that he can use when he bothers me and an old pressed powder compact. The blush he doesn’t do too much so I don’t have a separate one.
He likes to have his toes painted. Right now every toe is a different shade of red or pink. Some of the boys tease him about it at school but he doesn’t care and tells them it’s cool. I wish I had his confidence sometimes.

Are you able to lay on your stomach? Stomach sleeping helped me most after my bypass to get all the glasses out.

Speaking of stomachs I made a poor breakfast food choice and have been paying for it all day. In a half an hour I need to go to a mandatory dinner so I hope it passes soon I’m chugging water hoping to flush everything out.

I asked my parents to stop on their way back from getting S to pick up some gas-x. But I will try laying on my belly. It’s still pretty tender, but if it helps the bloat it’ll be worth it!

tgrimes poor H! And poor you. How do you feel about the ENT? Do you like them and feel confident with them? I’m just wondering if the tube wasn’t placed correctly and that’s been the problem all along. Or maybe it’s just a fluke and poor H was one of the unlucky ones that just has a hard time with this. I’m sorry that you’ve been having to deal with this!

Thanks everyone. We stopped and picked up a bucket with tulips in it. It’s 32 degrees right now and they may not survive the night but that’s ok. I’m hoping I can harvest them to plant at my sister’s house in the fall. The girls behaved very well and we listened to the song that was sang at his funeral. In a couple weeks I will go back and clean up the faux fall leaves, I tried to remove them today but it was too hard with the snow and cold.

trtlcrzy I'm sorry. It's nice that he is in an area where you can leave things. Where my Dad is has so many rules and they take a lot of things away. Those tulips are beautiful.

I'm dying, lfig. Do you get to watch the sobriety testing after you get people drunk? I'm so sorry, tgrimes. This has to end eventually. I just wish for your sake and H's that it was already in the past. Sounds like a great time, nam2013!

We are just hanging out at home today... again. I'm trying to organize and get rid of as much stuff as I can. I want to move with as little as possible. Are you deep in unpacking guster?? I hate moving so much. I'm actually doing pretty well. The snow, and then the rain and wind really kept us grounded, not much to do, but unpack. I have 3 boxes of summer clothes in our bedroom and one box of china in the living room. I haven't even looked at the basement, but it's mostly big Tupperware containers of Christmas decorations that need to be moved to a corner. We have curbside garbage pick up here, and after living in a townhouse forever where we didn't do any of that this is new to me. So last night, MH drags the cans to the end of the driveway, and I look out about five minutes later and the recycling container (which is full of packing paper) has tipped over and paper has blown not only all over our yard but the woods around our property and into our neighbors' woods and yard. I ran outside and tried to pick everything up (but the wind is blowing like crazy making the paper fly even farther away; i'm getting caught in sticker bushes and probably walking through poison ivy). So as I'm walking back up to the can with all of the paper, they BOTH tip over and now I have garbage everywhere plus more paper blowing in the wind. Next thing I know, the neighbor has driven over to help because she saw me struggling outside. She was so nice and probably thought "Who the heck is this hot mess that moved in next to me?" needless to say, we called the garbage pick up company and changed tge service to driveway pick up. I'm not doing that again.

guster That was so sweet of your neighbor to come help. I would have been cussing a lot running around picking up the packing paper.

What a funny first impression. She was very sweet. I also think it's hysterical that she drove over because it was so windy outside.

guster Do you have a really long driveway where your house is set back off the road? Our recycling and garbage are picked up on different days. Also, the recycling bins have lids that snap shut. But i imagine you had a lot more recycling than the container could fit. The wind was insane yesterday.

But i imagine you had a lot more recycling than the container could fit. The wind was insane yesterday. Yes, the driveway is very long. The garbage is that little yellow circle. Recycling is every other Thursday and garbage is every Thursday. The kids don't snap shut. It does seem like an odd choice.
