    When you said Norco, I thought you were talking about mountain bikes.
    Where else would anyone think this?
    Of course you are exhausted. You are up and walking less than a week after surgery. It's hard for us to imagine the metabolic energy it takes for healing to occur.
    I remember one day about 10 days after my second son was born, I had to drive to my school to pick up my paycheck. I was on the freeway, and all of a sudden, I thought I was going to have to pull over and call someone to get me. It's the only time I have felt that kind of exhaustion, and that was after a natural birth, with no drugs. I can only imagine what you are feeling. Nap all you want.

    Still walking 2-3 times per day. I did my longest walk yet today and didn't immediately fall asleep afterwards! I can cook my own food now too. I had a nice visit with Catrin, she brought me a Pumpkin Spice Latte yesssssss! It's nice to have some social interaction. I'm starting to get cabin fever a bit but I'm still too scared to ride in a car. My bikes seems sooooo far away right now.

    That is so cool, I regret never meeting up with Catrin when I lived over in Champaign.

    Sounds like you're getting there, it's a slow process but pretty linear so you can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

    Still at home hanging out. Soooo bored. I walked 3x yesterday and ended up with over 6 miles for the day. I wasn't wiped out and actually felt a lot better. Today I must have hit the 'hormonal stage' some other ladies have mentioned. Sitting on the couch after I woke up I start crying for absolutely NO reason. BF's about to leave for work and he gets all worried. Then I start laughing b/c it's so ridiculous. Laughing and crying simultaneously, sigh. Catrin maybe the next PSL better have a Prozac in it, LOL! Feelin' kinda mental today.
