Getting around.
I'm getting around quite well, though when not in motion I sleep like the dead. Last night my eyes closed at 9:15 and I don't think that I moved an inch until I awoke from a deep dream this morning at 7:30. Limping is tiring. I haven't worked out in a week. Other new excuse? From only sleeping on my left side due to my broken right hip I developed an AWESOME cyst. A HUGE cyst. My first. I don't recommend them. A cyst that I got to have removed on Tuesday afternoon in a procedure which I will not go into, other than to say that it was all nasty. Very nasty. And no now I am wounded on both sides, which is just awesome. I feel like I have been on this medical mystery tour this past year or two, and I'm ready for the ride to end. After 35 blissful years of complete health, I've dealt with a bizarre auto immune flare up, a broken hip, adenomyosis (aka monthly bleeding to death), anxiety issues, a gigantic cyst, .....and you know what? I'm getting a little sick of the lot of it. None of it is cancer, none of it is life threatening, but put it all in a bag and I'm feeling a bit like a plague of locusts may be coming next. Fuck you, cyst. I didn't really need you, right now.
We had a lovely if exhausting day today at Longwood Gardens, some long naps, and the Goshen Fair tonight, and I am tuckered. Pool tomorrow. Its Mom Mom fun week, and I'm hanging on for dear life.
Whenever I need a laugh I'm going to bust out this picture, and look at Jakes face.
He looks a little like a pirate...aaarrrgghhh! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI think Jake was showing what he thinks of the health annoyances. :) Here's to putting random health drama and trauma behind you. Have a great week with your mom.
ReplyDeleteCyst? WTF. That sounds horrific. Sending you good juju. I am grateful that you have had such a strong foundation of health to deal with all of these injuries and odd health situations because I think it would be much worse if you didn't come from such a place of strength, but that doesn't mean that living through this isn't really challenging. Hang in there darlin. And, yes, I will call soon to dish. Mwah. XO
ReplyDeleteP.S. Please send me Jake. For realz. It's only fair.
