So I know I don't blog often, but I'm planning on doing better at it.
Now that it's three weeks later... and update on my surgery! It went AMAZING! I seriously feel like nothing ever happened. Ever since I woke up from the anesthesia, I have had no pain. At the very most, I've had some aches here and there. Or, if I over do the lifting and moving, I feel really exhausted at night. But really, I can't complain. They didn't have to put in any drains. They creep me out, so I was very happy to wake up and find zero tubes coming out of me. They also were able to do adhesive stitches so I didn't even have to go back and get stitches taken out! They had me stay over night just to monitor me, but by the time I came home, I was feeling good as new. So, I spent my two weeks off from work just watching TV, playing on the computer, reading a little bit, and enjoying many visits and dinners from friends and family.
Even right now, just three weeks later, I feel so good that it's hard to imagine that it ever happened. It's a shame that I spent so much time agonizing over the anticipation of the surgery, but there's no way that I could have known my body would react so well. Most people that have this surgery are in serious pain afterward. I was truly lucky and truly blessed. It's pretty unbelievable.
Other good things... Andrew and I are buying a house! Woot! Our offer has been accepted, our loan is being processed, the inspection went well... so now we just wait for our closing date! We're scheduled to close on April 15th! So in just a few weeks, Andrew and I will be leaving the apartment life forever and settling down in Fairlawn, OH. That is, until we find a good excuse to settle down in North Carolina somewhere. =P Anyways, it's a cute white cape-cod that has lots of charm and personality. It's mostly move in ready, but has a lot of projects we want to do over the years. One of them is a kitchen remodel next summer. So fun!
Thats all for now, but I promise I'll update again soon.
