Ouch, that all sounds so familiar. Well I remember the day I was allowed more than a sip of clear liquid. The doctor on rounds in the morning said I could have up to 500ml. "You mean I can have a pint?" I asked, implying beer. The "great white flock" on rounds laughed, and so did I ... which I immediately regretted. Laughing was NOT a good idea with fresh stitches and an incision from breast bone to pubic bone. But recovery went apace from there. And once I was home the pace picked up, as in walking to the store with breathers (sat down on neighbors' retainer walls) en route, then fewer breather stops, then all the way there and back and make dinner without needing a nap. Then longer walks, then hikes, and so on and so on. Walking is good. Keep it up. Sounds like you're doing well!

Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

Pam, glad to hear you are progressing well! And we call that a "tootie bootie" in our house. You do what you have to do girl, lol. Keep us updated and enjoy the weather at a slower pace. Time will get you back on two wheels.

Pam, I can't believe you went to Costco!! I don 't like going there even when I am full of energy. You'll be back on your bike in no time.

Good energies and best wishes, Pam. Be patient with yourself and take the time to heal- it'll be a good investment.
Lotsa sleep and R&R!
