A Little Break

I mentioned in a previous post that I will be having surgery. I still plan on eventually doing a post (or posts) about my journey. It’s not bookish, but I figure if my experience can help even one person then it is worth sharing. But I’m waiting until after the surgery and I’m well into my recovery so I can give a full picture. For now, I will say I am having a total hysterectomy tomorrow. As we are all different, I have heard many experiences ranging from fantastic to terrible. Most people seem to have relief after getting this done though.

The purpose of this post is to let you know I may not be around as much during recovery. Some people seem to bounce right back while others take a bit longer. My doctor said if I was working a traditional job where I needed time off of work she would recommend 6 weeks but at the very least 3 weeks. I will definitely not be babysitting my granddaughter during my recovery, for her safety and mine. But I don’t know how much I’ll feel up to blogging, visiting blogs, or even reading. You never know!

I have a lot of posts pre-scheduled for now. Just know that if I don’t respond if you leave a comment I’m not ignoring you. I will eventually be back reading any comments and hopping around to visit my favorite blogs. I figure some days I may be up to those things and some I may not. I will give myself a lot of grace for the next month or so.

I’m nervous and excited to get the ball rolling on this in the hopes it will help my quality of life. In the meantime, I’m looking forward to Spring in Michigan being in full swing when I’m ready to get back up and at ’em.
