Good Evening Nucky and the rest of you sweet Nothings. The surgery was at 7 am today. The did a spinal and with the "cocktail" of drugs they are giving me every 6 hours I feel great.

I was up walking sometime around mid-day. No pain and very little discomfort. As so so many have said before "I should have done it sooner." Now I understand.

I didn't know whether there would be wifi in my room and whether I would be up to posting. But yes on both counts.

I don't also know whether they will keep me here for a 2nd night or send me home tomorrow. Either way, I'm good with it.

Thank you for all your prayers and good wishes. I know they helped.

No, no, nothing but no! I prefer hearing about "all this fun and frivolity" -- no back burner for that. LOL

Well I am nothing but wiped out and need to sleep. So again. thanks for the positive thoughts and prayers.

Good night all you sweet nothings. I will try to report in tomorrow, God willing.

Up and at 'em early this morning but grateful to have the time to take a peek at NOTHING to see your post, BK - an unexpected surprise indeed! What you're getting is what I call "good medicine" - the right combo can mean all the difference in the world. So thoughtful of you to take the time to relay to us directly how well you are doing. Continued prayers for a complete and quick recovery. NOTHING else to say except

We were at home playing Trouble till about 11 PM, laughing our butts off and when we all said goodnight the kids went out for a ride in the Golf Cart. I was verklempt. I was under the impression they were going to bed.

I guess no matter what they've been through and seen all over the world you still have that parent thing going on. I told them both that there is an 11 PM curfew in our home and if they didn't follow it that they were grounded. It has been great having them here so far, I'm very grateful for that.

Today is for our Dear Friend though and reports of all this fun and frivolity can go on the back burner for now.

NOTHING but delighted to hear you are having so much fun with your family. Your stories are good stuff.......

So glad everything went well and you will be NOTHING but good as new. I told you they had good drugs there.

[Nucky]

Hey BK, did that sense of relief or sense of everything is gonna be fine NOTHING but come over you at the last minute? It happens to me each time and it feels good.

I had no Clue whatsoever that you would be up and around the same day no less posting on the computer, just think about both of those things for a minute. That really is unbelievable. Even John Wayne or Joan Wayne Johns sister couldn't have done that a few short years ago. You are NOTHING short of SuperWoman!

I'm so grateful you're doing good. does work!

Next Stop Senior Olympics!

[Nucky]

I really do think that you should have waited until the Operation was over to post on NOTHING! Jeez that is a real commitment to NOTHING!

I'm going to end up with getting my Knee done sooner or later so I'm taking Notes. Up the same day and Cocktail of drugs duly noted. Carry on!

HaHa - Committed is nothing but the right word


Oops -Poor timing PT has just arrived to take me for a walk. I'll get back after that.

You are NOTHING but . Let me know when you and Scrubbing Bubbles are set to get started and I will be your first customer. You go girl!

[BK001]

I am back from my walk and some exercises. I had very little pain 0/1 when we started and I am now at about a 4. They have me sitting in a recliner. An occupational therapist is expected to come in to help/give advice about washing up, getting dressed, etc. and then once dressed, I will be ready for a group session this afternoon. DH & Sis are on their way. I will ask them to get coffee from the cafeteria. The room is lovely. It on a brand new floor (5th) at Marion Community Hospital in Ocala. The food is typical less-than-mediocre hospital food although they said this evening will be a "gourmet" dinner. LOL - I can't wait. (not)

But as you can see my spirits are very high and I am scheduled to go home tomorrow. Sis brought me a walker and I have my cane so I should be good to go. (I expect to be able to donate both in short order!) Just hope it won't be too long before I can go into the pool. I think it will probably be about 3 weeks because they want the incision to heal before I am allowed to get it wet.

So this is nothing but all the news that's fit to print at the moment. Again, thank you all for your good wishes and prayers. I know they helped.

I'll check in sometime tonight. See y'all later.
