now you know to slow down. Don't forget, just because you can doesn't mean you should. Be sure to take your pain pills. Hopefully tomorrow will be better. Maybe you should crochet something if that doesn't hurt. Talk to you later.

6:39am I just took a different pain killer, hoping it takes care of the pain and avoid getting my stomach upset. I think there was a lot of pockets work done cuz the pain is really intense
but incisions are very clean now so that is a good sign. There is no more blood and nothing draining
Hope you all have a great day and
444 try to rest more than me. I am in more pain cuz yesterday I was up and about when I should have been in bed.

Aw Geez Enerva.... you pushed yourself too much.... I mean even when you feel good, you still can't do what you think you can!
I've heard things always hurt worse, 2-3 days after... sounds like your incisions are healing bettter..... Just rest and let that little body heal!
Spookers and Sass, I ain't a-gonna stay all night with you two, because you are too rowdy! You will probably laugh and talk and smoke, and raise hell the whole night!
I am more of a calm type person.... ya know... I need beauty sleep along with peace.... Hah!
Spookie, YOU stay all night with her...! Is her bathroom still out on the front porch?

Maybe you guys can meet me/us like at Universal City Walk some day for lunch? I still don't know when, because we have to spend time with the boys, since they don't live at home anymore, and have stupid jobs and things, but I will give you guys a ring and let you know later...
DD is sleeping, I think.... She & her girlfriend went to dinner and a concert last night..... and she snuck in.... just like old times.... and went on up to bed... like I could even HEAR her anyway....
So today we have to figure out who wants to do what, and then squeeze every least thing into one day, that would normally take 5 days....
She leaves tomorrow....
But then we will be going out there on the 24th.... Gives me time to re-cuperate from THIS time...Ha! 0 -
Good morning girls!
Enerva, it must be the phase of the moon! I hurt like crazy too. I think this is the worst one for pain yet. I know I had a lot of pocket work on the left and on the right doc told DH that he really had to work in there, rads side an all. He said that it had started to fuse and he had to pry it apart. Lipo areas ain't none too happy either. And anesthesia for me well once I wake up I'm awake. I laid here all night and don't think I slept more than two hours total.
Thank heavens for crotchless compression garments cuz if I unzipped I would prolly have to call the fire department or zoo keeper to wrestle me back in it!
PS said 3weeks no arm use doesn't even want me soft boiling an egg. I am going to heed that because if I lose this TE I know I would never talk him into this again. So this has to work!
Have a great day ladies! Chevy enjoy that family today! I know you will find a way to squeeze everything in!
BBL

4sew, I am on the lobby internet again...lol... I hate to sound stupid, but, are the compression undies ( girdle ) for the fat graphing or lipo? You never complain after surgery, so of you say it hurts, we know it must...
Enerva, hope it gets better soon. I hate to hear of you girls in pain...
Blondie, waving back hello..
Dutchie, hard to let them go. I still miss my kids, & I see them a lot. So, you must be single?
0 -
Single since 2000 and their only parent. I have the kids born between 1993 and 1996. I was quite busy.

Oh sure Spooky! And I don't do pole dancing either! Ha! Well, I don't, but I would like to..... DD showed me right where you live, AND Sassy, so if you guys want to meet like some restaurant or somewhere by Dr. Philips neighborhood for a couple hours? And then you could go stay with that Sassy again, and smoke and drink and party like bad girls DO!

Whatever works best for you and DD. just tell me where, I'll put it in OnStar.

The compression garment is fore the lipo you wear them for a couple of weeks so the skin has time to shrink and not be all sloppy. Plus the support just feels good. I also have a surgical bra on to keep the left fin from shifting. Hopefully that one won't need another thing for 30 years! You are correct that this hurts this time! I haven't ever taken the pain pills even with MXs. But this hurts. He said it was fused on rad side and he had to pry it apart. Yikes!
Chevy. It's a crotchless girdle. That's much sexier than panties! Are you flying thru Atlanta? I could bring lunch and we could picnic on your layover!
Ok so I am really being good cuz I had to twist the arm of the PS to even give this a go. If it fails he won't try it again so I am really trying to be good.
Wish I could sleep though. I haven't been to sleep since I woke in recovery. I know why MJ liked the Propofol!
0 -
Oh I remember the Propofol also! And I wasn't sick after surgery! Had the same thing with my hip!
Okay 444444444....! It is a flight with SouthWest, and non-stop~! So that's probably good.... The less air-time with DH, the better....
Hope you are feeling better, and can get some sleep!All 4 of us went down-town today, to first.... REI, then went over to the "new" remodeled Union Station! Walked all around there.... I was there like when I was a little girl, with my Dad coming home from the War! Then seeing my Brother off, joining the Navy..... Wow..... so many memories..... and completely different now, full of restaurants, coffee-shops, and even hotel rooms!
And the 16th St. Mall is totally different.... We rode a shuttle up and down, and couldn't believe all the new huge buildings! Then drove towards home, going down the old North Denver neighborhood where DH grew up! So many new high-rise apartments & buildings now!
And the girls just left to go explore MORE shops, and will be back later for a Pizza....
So much running around..... glad I'm so young and energetic.... Ha!

Okay Spookie..... I'll let you know probably when we get there..... is that okay? Have to see what the boys can arrange also!

Holeinone, Great pic of you landing on the moon

I hope your pain level lessens Enerva.
4444, hope you get some good sleep soon.

Holeinone - what a great pic of you!
I have such fond memories of visiting the Air and Space museum with my uncle... a dear man who was a West Point graduate, a career Army officer (retired Major) who also worked at the Pentagon, and lives near DC. He truly is one of the most intelligent people I know... after the army, he earned his Doctorate, was Chancellor of a university, and his last job was with a Think Tank.
He took me to the Smithsonian A&S many years ago, and we climbed into the mock-up of the Space Shuttle.
All of a sudden, he yells out into the crowd below...........PIGS IN SPAAAAAACE!!!!!! and then cracked himself up laughing. He said "I've always wanted to do that."
He was, of course, referring to the Muppet Movie, "Pigs In Space".....

Morning gals! Blessings, we were able to watch a Shuttle Launch one time at Cape Canaveral, and I'll always remember it...
I found this site and thought you would like to see it...

I remember them landing on the Moon for the first time, and thought it was soooooo hard to believe! You are very proud of your Uncle! That is pretty special with all of your memories!
HiHo! Yes! You must have been on the moon landing.... Ha!
DD lives in Orlando, and she LOVED knowing when the lift-offs were, and would be in the back-yard on the golf course, watching it fly over!

Sas can be in her pool and see them. We can see the shots on the west coast if it's clear.

hey owls, been off-line. DH had vacation and I didn't get much PC time, between him hogging the computer and me keeping him on task whittling down the honey-do list. I'm 12 pages behind. Will get caught up but just wanted to say hi and let you know I'm OK.
Someone (2TA?) asked about the bar of soap trick for foot/leg cramps. Here's a link from the People's Pharmacy. It's how I first heard about it. BBL ♥ to all

U really have to pamper u'rselves 24/7 until it's OK and do nothing else--U might feel Oh it's not so bad today, but beware of false signs--It's bad until it is all healed. Enerva I'm sorry u'r in the pin u'r in and 444 u must be too. Just keep those pain meds going don't let the pain get ahead of u. Please rest.

I told u I have 4 very special threads and I like to not miss all of these things, but until I get my computer all fixed I just try to let everyone know I think of u gals so much and pray for all of my friends on BCO--U mean a lot to me. Go ahad Chvy make fun of me now. OK I still can't spell or type.xxxoooxxx

Thank you, Chevy!!!!
That video was so fascinating, I just posted it on my FB page!!!!
It kind of made me dizzy to think of drifting around in zero gravity, but I did laugh at how her hair and her necklace just floated around her.
Just another day in space!!!!!

So glad you liked it! I thought it was fascinating too....
Both my girls are gone........
.... BUT, they both came over, and we stopped at Starbucks, which is a necessity, then we went to Lakeside Amusement Park! I can't believe we DID that..... I mean we went there when we were kids! Got my first kiss on the roller-coaster, going up through the tunnel! Don't remember anything after that, Ha, ha!But it's all still THERE! Sort of run-down, and the rides are only 1 to 5 tickets, meaning 10 cents a ticket! $3 to get in! A little different than DisneyWorld!
We rode the little train all around the lake, then watched the girls ride some of the rides THEY rode when they were kids.
My Brother sat-in on the drums with the Stan Kenton Band when he was about 15! The "Fun-house" is gone, but all those rides in there were specifically designed to make you throw up!
Anyway, our fun is now over..... She is waiting to catch her plane.... geez, I miss her.... I know she is in her 50's, but still my first little girl.
Oh well, we will be there on the 24th.... She said she is coming again in the Spring.... I'm sure she thinks we are getting older, and need her company.... Ha!
I think it is going to rain.... And I'm in a rainy kind of mood..... BBL.....
