There are certain movements that before the surgery caused pain (like hoisting myself into our Highlander). Today after I "hoisted", I felt a little sore. Hard to explain but the pain has been replaced with soreness. I believe I already feel a huge improvement. On the other hand, it may just be my current "drug-addled imagination". LOL. I am scheduled to take Tramadol every 6 hours, Gabapentin 4 times a day, and Oxycodone as needed to alleviate severe acute pain. So needless to say, I am in LaLa land. (That's my defense and I'm sticking to it).

Thank you again Sweet Nothings for your kind thoughts and prayers. Talk to you tomorrow. For me, it's now time to hit the hay.
Hey Hippitity Dippidity! Watch the Gabapentin, just be aware of it blowing up your legs. It doesn't happen to everybody but me. It was NOTHING but terrible. I'm so glad you're back home. Yipppeeee.

We just swam down to the Fin and blew the kids minds. They loved it. There is a good possibility that they will be buying a house in one of The Villages Family Neighborhoods cause we like to follow most of the rules. Things are looking up all over. Good Night Yous I Hope.
