Here it is Thursday, and all I can think about is how badly I want to go home and sleep!
I went to PT at 8a, got to work at 11a, and have been sitting here since working. It's not that I have a physical job, but I wonder if I went back to work too soon.
It's been 6 weeks since surgery and I am too pooped to pop!
How are the rest of you fine folk doing in the "just plain exhausted" department?

girl...it WILL get better...I went back at 4 weeks and was so tired by noon that I could barely function the rest of the day.....I've been back at work for 7 weeks and I'm STILL battleing the afternoon glaze overs!

Hang in there.

the first month I was back at work, I slept for an hour at lunch - if you can do that, try it, it helps!!
 
It is my limit to make it through the day, get home, eat shower; fall out. 13 weeks. If you are back at work AT ALL at 6 weeks, you're doing better than me. Now Patti will tell you ALLLLLLL these stories about going to work, going home remodeling the house, hand-digging a swimming pool, catering parties for the entire town, washing clothes/cars/exterior of the house/neighbors clothes/husband/neighbor/guy at the store, but we have no evidence of those things. It takes more than 3 weeks back to see any 'return to glory', I can tell you that much..................just sayin.
 
darn....I've been dissolving them in my booze like "fizzies" !!!(anybody remember those?)
 
That's it. You've convinced me! I'm going home to my medication and my sofa. Maybe one of my kitties will curl up and keep my feet warm!
Talk at you all tomorrow!

fizzies..I remember the name but can't remember what they were.
 
I thought that was 'Alka-selzer', Plop Plop Fizz Fizz Oh what a relief it is. Now, thats what I do, plop into the chair and fizz-le away.......
 
They are good. Just like my pills. And the pills also make me very drowsy. all a blurr, what are we talking about? Kidding I know, urinals.
 
Actually weren't they hard candies with fizzy powder inside?
 
They were like tablets that fizzled when you put them in water. I loved them.

I still tire out at almost 15 weeks PO. Have to monitor your energy constantly and conserve wherever you can. It gets better over time, but it will take time. We impatient folks really suffer a lot in this. And Gat is right about Patti. I'm thinking she is part super human or something. If this is her recovering... get outta her way when she's doing fine!
 
JenniferG... you seem to be safe guessing urinals or poop.
 
We are having a PERFECT weather day in North Carolina. Almost 80 degrees with low humidity....Hubbaloo has the gas grill chuggin with burgers....wish I could send ALL of you bunnies some of this PURTY southern weather!!

Burgers are ready....i'm outta here!
 
Those of us in the chilly Northeast do not find this 80 degree weather amusing.
We have not cracked 55+ degrees yet. Even the Forsythia don't know whether it is time to bloom yet. Green with envy!
