    Thumbs up Whoo Hoo!

    The drain is out, the incision is 95% healed, the bruising is slowly transitioning from aubergine purple to olive green,and the doctor has declared me "good to go!"

    I came home and celebrated with a Belgium Brewing Company Somersault beer (nice apricoty fruit taste with some not too bitter hops follow up) , and then had to promise both resident FIL and DH the SAG guy that "I will do this carefully, I will not be stupid and push it, and I will rest as needed."

    Thank you one and all for your amazing support and encouragement.
    I have read and reread every comment and they have all cheered and inspired me.

    Hurrayyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    (Still freaked out by drains. *shudder* I'm so proud of you for just dealing with THAT, just a source of total horror to me & the very thought gives me goosebumps)

    And great choice of beer I'm having one now! (In your honor, now that I've read this!)

    Whooohoooo! Congratulations on the progress! I am with Jess, the mere thought of drains sends shivers down my back but you have certainly gone beyond that

    Have fun! Careful fun, but fun
