It's Memorial Weekend. And it's been a few days since I blogged. Life has been fast and slow. There are times when I feel "normal" again, walking, creating, working on various projects. And then there are times that I just don't want to do anything: I don't want to talk, I don't want to get dressed even.
My abdominal incision is feeling a lot better, but there are times when I am so sore under my arm, on the new breast, across the middle where they tunneled. The good thing is that this usually happens at the end of the day, when my body gets tired and yells out , "Enough already! Take it easy, wouldja??"
Yesterday, I spent most of the day with my brother and sister-in-law Susan. I had a great day. We went out walking, smelling the pine and jasmine in their neighborhood, checking out the pets at the pet store. I got to see my two handsome nephews (the third handsome nephew was in school), and it was just a very relaxed time with family. We are so close, but life is so busy. We don't often get to just spend time together -- where it's not a birthday or holiday, but just quality time. It was really special.
Back at home, I worked on my new silver pomegranate necklaces and new fundraiser bracelets. I got them photographed, cropped, ready to list. And Ani came home. She asked if we'd like to go see a movie. The new Woody Allen film, Midnight in Paris, was showing in Burbank. I thought I'd give it a try. It was a great film, but still too soon for me to be sitting in one position for two hours. I kept getting shooting pains throughout the film....again, reminders from my body that I had just done a little too much today. :::sigh:::
So here we are, Memorial weekend Saturday. I listed my new jewelry on Etsy. It's one o'clock in the afternoon and I'm still in my jammies. Taking it easy today. I do need to get out a little, but not for long. I'm saving my energy for tomorrow. I'm hoping to make it to church tomorrow....my first Sunday back.
