On the mend

So, I had the wrist surgery bright and early Monday morning, got home around noon, and had a couple bouts of nausea (yes, the toilet and I became very close) until dinner time, when my tummy finally settled down. Guess it was the anesthesia and it just had to wear off. Ended up taking pain meds and sleeping most of the day. Could barely move my left-hand fingers, which was a little unsettling.

Tuesday still had some pain, but I worked at home about three hours, typing with one hand (sigh). Took half the pain meds.

Wednesday still felt under the weather but no real pain, so discontinued the pain meds. Worked at home another three hours, and started using the left hand to type.

Thursday WORKED A FULL DAY at the office. Actually got back to two-handed typing (the left hand is working pretty darn good -- using the fingers now and I'm typing fast! Hallelujah!) ...

So I've got a four-day weekend, compliments of the employer, but I've got some catching up to do, work-wise, so brought my computer home. Like everyone, I'm enjoying these fall-like temps and the glorious sunshine! God is good! Gonna see "Wicked" with Hannah tomorrow night, then the Muny for "Titanic" on Monday, then I'm planning to start saving money, ha!

The plan for next week is office on Tuesday and Wednesday, see the surgeon for the first post-surgery check on Wednesday, then off to Houston for 10 days for work! But I'm feeling much better about the trip, now that I'm back to two-handed typing -- just hope airport security doesn't give me too much grief over the metal plate in (and probable new cast on) my arm!

Until next time ...
