Wow!! Congratulations! This is a fantastic milestone!

I am currently in the midst of it too! It is a great one for recuperation.

So exciting! Just put a hold in at my library.

Happy Birthday to YOUUUUUU!!! Fellow Pisces. Mine is coming soon.

Thank you so much!!!

Thanks getting that drip pad off my face was a game changer!

The bleeding has stopped. Yay! I no longer have to wear the nose wrapper thingie.

Now the battle is against dryness. Mouth breathing as my nostrils are still blocked.

Also I cannot smile due to the swelling in my face. Maybe tomorrow?

Thank you and You have a good day as well.

Tummy troubles are the worst! But you have the best remedy ever.

Thanks!

Thanks! The hard part is over. It will only get better from here.

Thank you so much!!!!

Thank you!!!

Thank you!!!

I have put it off for years, so I get your concern. Surgery was yesterday morning and my worst pain was in the afternoon waiting for my hubby to get the pain meds, hydrocodone. Now it is manageable. The bleeding comes and goes. However I cannot breathe through my nose which is super tender.

Before and After.
I am in the throes of recovery from surgery yesterday. I had a deviated septum corrected and my sinuses vacuumed out. I will feel a lot better soon. For now, I have good pain meds.

I had a crosswalk altercation over the weekend and the vehicle was a BMW.

All good, feel free to post if they come to you, I will appreciate them during my recovery.

Oh sorry forgot the Alt Text. The photo shows the top of a dresser with the following all lined up: vaporizer, gauze pads, a variety of nasal sprays, saline spray, Vaseline and gauze tape.

I am having sinus surgery tomorrow morning. I have all of my post care supplies at the ready. I am not looking forward to the week ahead. However, after that I anticipate being able to breathe and smell in abundance (which is not the current situation).

Yes exactly!

I sometimes dig my head in the sand and forget that this is a red state and there is a lot of Republican money here. Not likely to forget anytime soon now.

I am trying to move hubby along and de-escalate when the car's passenger yells out with massive contempt in her voice - 'Liberals!'. At that I had to be pulled away.

So life in Sarasota Florida today, hubby and I are crossing an intersection and this car comes roaring up. Hubby who does not take shit from anyone, stepped right into the intersection waving his arms and shouting for the driver to stop. Her reply, 'fuck you!'

Happy Birthday! Looking great!

I have a phobia about them, especially the down ones, and always use the elevator by default. I have been on this one and agree that it is super scary.

Wow! You would never know there had been a window there. Great work! I love these play by play updates!

When I was on GoodReads, I used to enter these all the time and never got anything.

I am also on the FODMAP. It helped me tremendously. I also went gluten free which helped relieve chronic bloating for me. I still have problems with constipation and acid reflux, but things are more stable than before. I am sorry you are going through this. Maybe see a dietician?

It is beautiful! And so small!!
