I had my oral surgery yesterday and it went well. Between being somewhat groggy and frustrated with hubby and his 'rules' (I showed him!), when the doctor called to see if I was ok, I think I neglected to ask him what it was.... and yet, I think I did ask, just didn't understand. But I see him next Tuesday for a follow-up so will be able to get more clear information.
I did sleep some, but not much, during the evening. Hubby, of course, was trying to wait on me hand and foot - and I had to keep saying I didn't want anything. I wanted him to stop on the way home and bring me McDonald french fries - it's a vegetable and I could nibble on them. BUT, he insisted that the nurse told him to get me a milk shake so a chocolate milkshake it was. And yes, I did drink it and it was ok - and the coolness felt good in my mouth. But I wanted french fries. And of course his comment that I wasn't to get any calls (he dared asked me where my phone was!) was no help. I text'd those that 'needed to know - in my opinion - that I was home and fine. And I was right - my youngest son goes 'what surgery?' LOL He has a lot of other things going on so I probably didn't tell him.
Ms. Vicky had a tree trimmer come out yesterday for her tree and sent him over to see me. I really think he would have done a great job - he is an arborist; he knows trees - and even said not to cut them back until it's warmer or it could kill the trees. I sent his card and information to the son and suggested he go with him. I really feel it was a 'God-send' cause I hadn't called anyone yet. Then Ms. Amy calls hubby in the afternoon and tells him that she remembered who did it another time or two back and called him and he will be today (which leaves me no time to go pick any more fruit cause I cannot be out in the cold right now) - and now I'm concerned the trees will die. I shared that information with the son, and he just said that Ms. Amy wanted it done now. That's fine. None of my business anyway. If they do die, the people who buy the house (I heard they dropped the price to $386K from $398) may be a bit upset if they really want the citrus trees.
I woke up this morning with a very sore throat and a major headache. The headache was bad enough I took a full Oxy - and it feels like it has finally kicked in. I'm running 'behind schedule' as I spent most of my time this morning just laying here with my eyes closed. I did get my reading done, and some praying, but with my head hurting (the entire sinus area), all I wanted to do was hold something cool against my forehead for relief. It's finally kicking in, though, and it's nearly 7AM so will need to get on the computer quickly now. But I may take a nap during the morning - which I know my boss doesn't care. At least I'm working!
So, yes, this is very short this morning - because I spent the time laying back with my eyes closed trying to get rid of the headache. But now you know - I'm doing fine after my oral surgery and I did well during it. This office is so nice and very thorough in making sure you understand and asks 'do you have any questions?" I just couldn't think when the doctor called. I'll be more coherent on Tuesday when I go for the check-up.
But now - I need to get off the computer, get the work computer up (I already have 41 messages!) and start to move about. I will feel better if I do, as well. Headache is on its way out, throat not quite as sore (feels good to drink water and coffee!) and well, I need t move. So with that - hope your day is full of...
Blessings!
