I owe, I owe...so off to work I go

Tomorrow will be my first day back at work. I am seriously dreading going back. I know I am way behind and tomorrow I'll probably just be "winging" it. I can only imagine the condition my classroom will be in. Report cards are due at the beginning of next week and I left during the 2 weeks of benchmark testing. I don't even know how to give this test, but I will have to figure it out and administer it to all my students by Friday.

This morning I went to the doctor for my follow up visit. He said I was doing great and had no restrictions on anything. He also tore off the two remaining bandages I had. I DO MEAN TORE....I was a lot more gentle with the other two I took off yesterday. The cuts are pretty small but the one that grosses me out and bugs me is the one right on top of my belly button. It's almost as if he kind of cut it open and the way the cut looks is freaking me out. Oh well, hopefully I will heal with minimal scarring.

In other news, this weekend was ok. The longhorns beat the shit out of OU so Roger was finally happy. Didn't do much of anything besides watch football....well I didn't really watch a whole lot as much as it was on in my living room being watched by others.

I'm hoping tomorrow night I will feel better about work and that my students are happy to see me again.

OUCH!!

I survived the surgery. Right now I feel like someone beat the SHIT out of me. My whole stomach is bloated and sore. After the surgery, I have realized how much we depend on the muscles in our stomach to do little everyday things. I can't get out of bed without help or even turn on my side or get up from a chair and I'm walking hunched over. The good thing is that I have not had any nausea and can eat pretty much whatever I want. I just can't move around. I have four little holes in my stomach that I'm hoping will not be too visible once they heal.

That's all for now, I'm gonna go lay down again.
