day 2

i had a good day today. i was pretty sore when i woke up since i didn't take any meds during the night. but my pain meds work fairly quickly, so it didn't last too long.

kj's a real trooper- he's helped me empty my drains, and keep track of all of my meds and stuff. tomorrow morning he gets to help me shower. which, i promise you, will not be at all entertaining. poor guy!

the girls were with dad and jill yesterday and last night. i did get to see symma at the hospital for a couple of minutes. then kj picked them up today and took them to the waukesha county fair. my mom came to my house and babysat me. i keep telling everyone that i'm okay to watch myself, but no one will listen.

i had lots of visitors today :) nikki and her mom, kathy, my gpa and uncle jeff, julie, and my mom. and i opened my package from kenny's wonderful and sweet cousins- chocolate and a travel book!! thanks!! julie and darin and missy got me gift cards for new undies- i'm going to have so much fun shopping for my new chest :)

when kj was done at the fair he brought the girls back here and i got to see them. hurray!! izzy wasn't nearly as rough as we feared. and i just missed them and put my foot down and said they weren't going to my mom's without seeing me first. i blocked my chest off with pillows- which the girls promptly moved out of the way so that they could see my owies. and they weren't grossed out by them, just curious. i was sooooo happy to see them. it was nice to get hugs and smooches from my girls. and izzy still knew who i was, so that made me happy.

now the girls are at my mom's and kj and i have spent the evening on the couch catching up on some tivo'd stuff. we are *way* behind! thanks for all of the phone calls, notes, and continued good thoughts!! love you all :)
