Good morning! Well, just past morning as I write. Yesterday was spent in the ER for 8 hours. But now I know what the pain I experiences was all about and now will be. am, on the mend! A small abscess between muscle and skin near the hernia site, not seen by the eyes. A very painful experience and worry about the hernia operation and how I was healing. Blood work and a CT scan took a lot of worry away! As I am healing very nicely otherwise! Learning these things has brightened me up a lot with an “I got this attitude” today! At first, I thought it was a part of the healing process of the hernia itself. Pain is a great motivator!

I will be setting up a drawing table today despite what else has to be done in house.

After I get pain meds and more antibiotics! Art is therapy! The day-to-day things____ and good friends and family mean a lot to me! A good friend spent that 8 hours in the ER with me. I am grateful for that. It was not so comfortable thing to do. I see my surgeon tomorrow. The sun is out and I am ready for the day with cooking already underway! Mail in the mailbox to go out. A second cup of coffee just how much I drink is up for question.

I will catch you on the flipside! May your day be filled with love and laughter. Always! Pejj
