Day Seven

Boy, what a day! I got up at 7:00 a.m. and worked on the computer for a couple of hours with a glass of apple juice. My ever faithful apple juice. Then my computer crashed (ya, again) so I took Maggie and laid down for a nap. I got up when Cyndi came after dropping Lauren off with Ms. Rhonda, her reading tutor, somewhere around 10:00, and Camryn and I made cookies. I didn't have any trouble leaving the cookies alone and just had a chocolate flavored Ensure for breakfast.

I spent the afternoon making rolls with Brooke for her ward's mother-daughter party which was tonight. I did something stupid and had a few bites of a roll, like I said, really stupid. It didn't make me nauseated, it just sat really heavy in my stomach and even made my back hurt. I won't do that again. Kelley told me that she doesn't do well with breads and pastas. They tend to plug you up and feel like crap.

I took a break from rolling rolls around 2:00 p.m. and had some more apple juice. I still can't seem to get very much water in, usually only what I take my pills with or wash my Flintstone Vitamins down with. I promise to work on that!

My energy level is holding up very well. I feel so much better than I did the few days before surgery. I'm telling you that diet will kill ya, not really but I do feel much better.

Bob got home a little after 6:00 and we headed to Lauren's ballgame. I took a strawberry flavored Ensure with me this time and drank it at the game. I even took a 20 oz. bottle of water with me and drank most of it.

I had another glass of apple juice tonight while I played a couple of games of Saduko and almost had both feet in bed before I remembered to write. Bob's gone to bed and I'm sitting here in the dark all alone so I'm going to sign off for now. Goodnight.
