Tuesday has been mostly resting up and starting to recover. Slept o.k. with the usual spells awake. I woke up about the usual time and got all the pills down including the new Miralax, which sure sounds like it's plastic - polyethylene Glycol. My hand was still swollen and weird looking. Still thinking the surgery was more than I expected and was a lot more sore than I expected. Dr. Poore's office called me first thing to see how I was doing. I told her I thought I might have a touch of pneumonia in my lungs, as taking a deep breath was difficult and I could hear that papery crackling sound when I breathed. I didn't like that at all. She said that could be from the anesthesia and if it didn't get better I would have to see the doctor. The pain pills have made it bearable and by afternoon I was feeling some better.
Joe hovered a lot asking how I felt multiple times. Got some phone calls. I walked for 15 minutes, setting the timer and walking around the hall/living room/kitchen route, did a load of laundry,....... Nancy I found your brown sock and have it in an envelope to mail to you so don't throw out the other one......... Saw Frosty out in front outside our gate going up and down with the plow some more. Fixed us a pot roast and vegetables in the crock pot that made getting some dinner easy, and there was leftover salad and muffins to put on the table. After dinner I felt a bunch better. Was pretty tired out and ready for bed though. Figured it might be best to prop up the pillows and not lay flat and that worked pretty good for the breathing.

Hello Lynn, I hope this finds you undrugged by now and feeling better. I took a look at Gina's blog and the pictures taken on your drive Monday were gorgeous! God certainly takes your mind off the drive with such beauty. And so does Gina. I couldn't find a place or a way to comment on Gina's blog, so the next time you see her, thank her for me for being such a wonderful friend to you. I don't know anyone who has as many friends as you do. Your wonderful life and all you have done for others is coming back two fold.
Love you Lynn. Will be anxiously awaiting your next blog entry, because that will mean you are feeling better.

Thank God. I'm so delighted with your news. I knew God couldn't ignore it when a whole state, plus the fringe areas were all praying at once. Keep it up. You're going to be rearing for spring when it comes.
Love you,
Judy
LMAO ... Edward Scissor hands to be sure! You have scary windows!!
