3/18 POD #19 > 12 am Food for Thought

Now that I have been sleeping in my bed, although on my back, I am rather comfortable with my wedge pillows propping me. That means I am often getting a good night's rest.

When I wake up, my mind is already 10 steps ahead. 

This morning, I woke up. My brain was already there:

"Wow, I feel good. Minimal pain. Oh, yes, minimal pain this is great. Ugh remember how you felt in the hospital and the first week or so home? I really didn't have great pain control in the hospital. And ugh, that Dilauded!! I hated it.  It didn't work and it made me feel yucky. I really don't want to feel that way again. I am going to have to talk to Dr. Cardarelli to prescribe something else ahead of time so I am not given that...."

Then I eventually rolled over and grabbed my phone. I see this text immediately from my sis:

"12 am food for thought. 

Can you ask Dr Cardarelli about what pain meds you will be prescribed in the hospital? And to give an alternative to Dilaudid if she was going to prescribe that again?"

STOP IT.

"Dude, I swear to God I literally was just f*ckng thinking about that this morning when I woke up, cross my heart!"

Tell me you are so deeply connected to your sister without telling me you are so deeply connected to your sister 🫶🏾🥹

It was a great day to get out and go for a walk. 

But then I had to pee. 

And the doors to the bathroom at the park I walked to were locked.

Hellooo nature trail!

At least I was able to do my nature in nature.

Then I just had to hike back up😂

Trying to hit my 10,000 steps a day - I'd call this a win!
