still healing well

Hi all! I have been home for one full day now, and things are going well. It's still crazy to think that the only pain meds I'm on are regular tylenol...and I haven't even taken any since this morning...how can my body go through all this and only need tylenol??

I think we are going to venture out tomorrow. The weather is cooling a bit, so we will have a break from +30. We may take the kids to the zoo or a small amusement park...just get out for a bit. For the past week Derrick has been here at my parents' place, or at the hospital...he's itching to get out. 

I am feeling slightly less foggy today, which was nice. We are starting to form some plans for our time here. I am being treated to a mom and daughter pedicure this week which will be fun, and I will be going out to a movie with my sisters. Derrick and I would like to get out on a date while we have free live-in sitters! So, all is well.

Yes, I am resting and relaxing too...and taking an afternoon nap everyday. I'm not pushing it...

Take care everyone!!
