Day 11 after surgery

I'm still tired.  I went to bed last night without any type of sleeping medication and I woke up twice.  Once around 2:00 and rolled over and went back to sleep. Once again at 5:30 — that was for my first bowel movement since surgery.  Up until then any thing that came out that end was water or sludge.

I'm not feeling at all good today.  I think I'm still tired and also the building is really hot except for my room where it is merely comfortable.  The good news is that I only had to give one test and it's done.  I've got a baby shower to go to this afternoon, and dog agility class.  Maybe I'll get a chance for a nap.

As for work, so far, I've been able to start things, but not finish anything.

No weight loss.  TDD is stable around 30.  Blood sugar has been stable.  Still on full liquids, though I have done some soups that some small solids in them.

Everyone says I look good.  I know most of the time I feel better.  I'm also caring more about how I look.  I've gotten my nails done and my hair done, neither of which I've done in a while.

I have thrown out several old bras that were way to big for me, and I've purchased a couple that are on the tight end of fitting — cut size is good, but the band size is the largest the bra will go.

Also bought a couple of short from ScotteVest on preorder.  They are men's shorts, so I want to see how they will fit — I've got one close to my current size and one the size smaller.  What I would REALLY like to do with them is to make them into skirts, and I think there is enough extra fabric in them to do so.
