Where I've been...

Thunderstorms last Tuesday night/Wednesday morning rendered the satellite internet useless. I waited 2 days before calling the company (to see if persisting weather conditions were causing it to not work) but I couldn't take it anymore. So they wanted to CHARGE US $125 to send someone out to fix our satellite with it being messed up because of WEATHER, something you can't control. ANYWAY, it's finally working now and Hubby is talking to them to not make us pay, it's ridiculous. We've contacted the cable company that people one mile away have & they will come out within 2 weeks to see if they can get it to us (yay for rural areas, pfft), so we're hoping for that because I'm tired as all HECK of satellite!

Hubby's surgery I let the stress of that stop my workout attempts, but I got back on the horse on Saturday & have been getting a little better every day. I'm up to 3.4 mph @ 2.0% incline for the 30 mins, won't be changing the incline for a long while. Also, Doc said I could do light weights, so today after walking I did 3 sets of [all body weight only]: 15 squats, 20 walking lunges (10 per leg), 15 calf raises. It really got the sweat rolling & dang did it feel GOOD to use muscles even if it's just for a little bit. Oh we used the warranty again & got the elliptical fixed up, so that'll be waiting. I'm not going to get on that until I'm up to an hour on the tready. I don't want to overdo it, I want to take it baby steps for a while since I've just dealt with so much.

I noticed when my swelling is up I hunch, and when it's down I'm pretty much straight, not totally like I used to be though, will get there eventually. My implants have dropped quite a bit, overall I'm happy with how I'm looking.

There are some bumps of concern along the incision in the pube area LOL, since the hair goes all the way up to the incision (since it is so low there). Well the hairs at the top are pulled at odd angles now so I'm getting ingrown hairs (I think that's what's happening) and I'm dealing with that. I'm tired of bandaging crap up but there are little holes & I'm paranoid of infection or anything, so yeah. Overall things are good!

  1. We have satelite internet, too. It sucks! Everytime the weather is bad, it goes out. Blah!

    I am glad you are getting back on the workout wagon. I am missing it. I am walking the dog though.

    I hope the ingrown hair thing isn't a constant problem....that would suck!

    Thanks for stopping by my blog.
