RECOVERY - DAY 2

Friday, January 13, 2023

Thankful for stronger pain meds! I'm sorer than yesterday. Truthfully, I was on a high post-op - thrilled that the surgery was a success and relieved that I made it through. Today, I was met with exhaustion. I had my weekly call with Victoria - just a check-in this week. Attended a Wellspring Rest and Visualization class that guided me into a deep restorative sleep. Really leaning into just being still and quiet. HAHA... not how I usually am and clearly not what I was expecting of recovery, but I am here for it.

I moved to the couch this afternoon. Nice change of scenery 😜 and had a 3-hour nap. I was cold today as my body was working its recovery magic. Toque on. HBC fleecy throw and wool socks. A friend said: "Tell me you're a Canadian, without telling me you're a Canadian." HAHAHA...

I have mags and books piled high, lists of streaming recos and other things to keep me entertained and I'm doing NONE OF IT! Well, not for now. Just healing is taking up 100% of my energy and time. The streaming will just have to wait.

⭐️ Please send all your show, movie and streaming recos my way.

David has gone to bed. I'm wide awake now so I may listen to some quiet music, but first some ice cream for the lingering sore throat. Today's selection: Matcha Tea. So good!
