more journalling going on to week 4 already

Day#15-18 A Driven Weekend

So to start the long weekend off with a bang, I went to the gym and rode the stationary bike for 1 hr, drove to Wal-Mart to develop some pictures, and then rested with Dave watching the hockey game. Felt pretty empowering to be able to drive again, but it is hard for city with the continuous turning, highway driving would be easier. My arm movement is pretty good but these boobs are sometime blocking, and add a big jacket to the mix, it’s a bit hard to turn.

Saturday started out a bit lazy, but we got to business with groceries, Costco, and visited with my dad’s side of the family. Ending off the day with “Enders game” which was pretty crazy graphics but had an odd ending, seemed to be a bit of a cliff hanger. I’m really enjoying the fact that life is normalizing. I almost feel guilty that I’m not working, but I still tire easily and well something heavier than 5 lbs. and I’m reminded why work is not a god idea yet.

Sunday, off to church feeling like a million bucks well spent, lots of my girls notices the increase in my chest, and they all complemented me on my new due. We were invited to dinner at Dave’s parents place, and I didn’t dress up near as much as I wanted to but it was a chilly -13*C today, and a skirt would just be torture. It was a lovely evening, and another unsuccessful hockey game, but the food was excellent, and I was pretty tired by the end of it.

Monday, Remembrance day so we slept in and remembered how good it feels to have that extra day together, late brunch which was extra delicious because of polish sausage I found in the freezer. And to top off my day, one of the girls that I work with offered to come by and do a pedicure for me…ahh I’m spoiled. Really have to get on the piano and back to the gym, good food tastes awesome, but it’s not pretty on the hips.

Day# 19-23 The Revenge of UTI, Being an Advocate, and Casino Sleepy Time

So three week mark has arisen, and I feel pretty good overall. Had a wicked UTI (urinary tract infection) you know it when it get there, pain shooting like a knife after you pee, and the kidneys feel like you’ve been struck by a cane. And the only cure is three days of huge horse pills of Cipro 1,000mg once a day. Amazing how that clears it right up, I must have been getting too much practice with swallowing pills cause they went down with ease…very odd for me who has to normally be in front of a mirror with half a gallon of water to swallow anything bigger than a Tylenol or Advil liquid cap.

I did stop at my work to drop off a letter stating that my planned return to work is December 9, 2013. Saw all my people working like slaves, but they were all very happy to see me, and eager to have me back.

I went to my mom’s to use the fax machine and turned out that my auntie was needing some support for her Dr. appointment she couldn`t figure out what was going on, and was she going to have another surgery or what was the plan. So I went with her and yes surgery will take place this coming Tuesday, I`ll get to play nurse again woot.

I offered to volunteer as a chip runner for the casino dates that we had booked at the Yellowhead casino. I spent most of my time sleeping, and eating. Kind of felt bad, but everyone was very glad to see me sort of up and about. I got to dress up which is always fun. Snow has plagues the city of Edmotnon, with freezing rain the day before the snow, it`s like black ice covered by frosting. Glad I didn’t have to drive today.

Well girls were out to breath today, no dressings on and so far so good little bit of blood coming from my left nipple and I think the right one is well on its way. Few more days and I`ll be full expansion, already funny to wake up with these lumps high rises on my chest. Got to laugh at yourself, so I say Good morning girls!!!

 

 

Week 4-how sweet it is to have these rock hard mounds…getting bigger

After the casino weekend ended I saw my goddaughter and it was the first time since before my surgery. I’m so glad I’m doing all this without kids at home, chasing after her for 4 hrs was almost too much. Perfect timing I figure. This week I felt good more visits to the gym, out and about in the cold November weather, and what I thought would be my last fill turns out, I have one more!

Right now I have 650cc/breast, which I was told was to be the max, but turns out he plans for 100 more on each side next Thurs, should be fun. I already feel like I’m carrying two giant ant hills on my chest…well more the merrier I guess, none of my clothes are going to fit that’s a fact. It’s going to be the great purge very soon. Maybe I’ll do a major wardrobe in May once my official set is done, birthday and starting a new life with fakes…woot.

My nipples passed his test and they are slowly showing themselves, might need some tattooing for the pigment around them, but hey they have surprised me thus far. Bio oil is my new best friend keeping my incisions soft and hopefully the stretch marks on my breast to a minimum.

I asked why they are so far apart and he said that once the implants go in they will be much closer together, and I can look forward to some nice results. Still no notice as to how far in advance it will be before the implant surgery. Going to have to take a couple weeks off work again, for that surgery, at least it will only be a Dayward visit. So far so good, all the other ladies that have done this with me are recovering well. Cheers to another week!!!!
