Ummm.... what?

Headed back to the doctor today for a little checkup on how everything is healing... without going into the gory details, I had a few spots in my incision that were NOT healing... the doctor was able to take care of those spots in the office (without a return to the hospital-yeah!)... and IF I take it easy and rest a lot, I should heal up just fine.  :)   This will probably delay my return to work until the 6 week mark... I wonder if our credit cards will hold up to the on-line shopping I seem to have entertained myself with recently...

I did talk to him about being SO tired... just doesn't seem normal to me.  I even started crying when talking about that (don't think he was really prepared for that one).  Totally feel silly about those tears now, but they just came out and I didn't have much control over them!  He told me that he had something that would probably help the tiredness (even more than just taking it easy, resting more, etc.  about this time I kinda zoned out because he was ahem- working- so I was a little distracted).  He told me he'd bring them out to me before I left.

Here's what he brought me...

Did you see what they were?  Yep, look closer.... those would be PRE-NATAL vitamins.  Seriously.  For the gal who just had her baby-making parts removed.  Yep.  I had a good laugh about that one.  Then the receptionist said, "So, I guess congratulations are in order?"  I just about peed my pants I laughed so hard.  Isn't the picture on these vitamins a crack up?  All those women leaning over the crib?  Glad I have a good sense of humor...

On other fronts... kids seemed to have a good day at school today.  Both were EXHAUSTED when they came home.  Needless to say it was a short night of dinner, baths, more Harry Potter, and bed.  Nice thing was I actually cooked (get out the red marker) for my family for the first time in weeks.  :)  There may be a light at the end of this tunnel after all (is that the pre-natal vitamin talking??).

I'll wrap this up with one last photo... my dear friends at work sent me flowers when I was in the hospital (yep, that would be December 16th folks...)... and the flowers are STILL alive!  I have enjoyed them a LOT and I thought I'd share a quick picture...

Love to you all...
