My surgery was a success. The pain, discomfort and recovery was all so worth it, 100 times over worth it. For the first time in twelve years I am living pretty much pain free and with out Endometriosis side effects. I feel great. Better then great, I feel like I’ve been given this amazing gift. Makes me want to live even healthier with diet and exercise. Makes me count my blessings in a big way. Life is good.

Wordless Wednesday

I made the decision to delete two of my blogs, leaving me with this one and Five Dollar Shake (my coupon and deal blog). When it comes down to it I just know I wont give up blogging forever and I like this domain. You know what they say, once a blogger always a blogger. I am sure I will eventually find my way back in the blogging swing of things.

I don’t know what it is but I just can’t get back in to the blogging habit. I am pretty sure it has to do with my Twitter and Facebook addiction and the fact that life has gotten pretty busy this year. What ever it is I am not ready to ditch this blog just yet but if I don’t find myself back in the habit when the domain is ready to renew, I just might let it go. Well, we’ll see.

I just love it when Geeks are turned in to rock stars!

It’s not going as quick as I expected or as fast as I would like. I’ve had a little set back the last couple of days and am pretty ticked off about it. I am spending as much time as possible on the couch today. Tomorrow I see the doctor and hopefully he will answer a couple of my questions and then clear me to return to work soon.
I am not a good patient.

Anybody else looking forward to this new show? From what I have seen and read, I think it’s going to be really good.

I was tagged by Sillygrrl a while back to take a picture of myself right at that moment and post it online with out touching it up at all. I took several snap shots with my laptop but just couldn’t get myself to post one. I don’t know why this is such a hard thing for me to do but after thinking about it for a while, well here I am.

Now that I finally posted my photo I am suppose to tag three friends.

I am tagging Soccer Mom, Devilish Southern Belle , and Uncle Vito.

Here’s the rules:
* Take a picture of yourself right now.
* No primping or preparing.
* Just snap a picture.
* Load the picture onto your blog.
* Tag some people to play along.

01. Endometriosis - caused me a lot of pain and some pretty ugly side effects over the last dozen years.
02. Uterus - I had mine removed on Monday.
03. Ovaries - also had one of those removed.
04. Menopause - I shouldn’t experience it any time soon because I got to keep one ovary. Yay!
05. Pain - hurts like hell right now but it is nothing compared to the years of hurting I’ve experienced.
06. Drugs - yeah, I am on them but not too much.
07. Healing - I am getting a little better every day.
08. Gas - still waiting for that part, has me a little freaked out that I need to release it from the surgery.
09. Incisions - amazed that I only have three small incisions.
10. Strange - to think that two parts of my body has been removed.
11. Support - I am blessed with awesome support, physical and emotional.
12. Hopeful - so damn hopeful of living a pain free life after I am done healing.
13. Aunt Flo - I am so happy she will never be coming to this town again!

Play along @ Thursday 13 !

I bet our neighbors are loving us this morning.
