My dear readers -
I did receive a nice reminder that I have been MIA... not intentionally but sometimes life happens. Somehow it feels like I have been really busy even though I do not accomplish anything, but I also know what takes my attention.
It has been a bit over 5 weeks since my surgery and I am starting to get used to the new me. My last video consult with Keelee MacPhee did go really well, she was very satisfied with the healing so far. There is still one spot with some drainage / oozing it she did not seem to be worried about it. It still bothers me to see this white area oozing.
I did finally get some sensation back in the outer labia which is good. Everything else is still completely numb.
Dilation remains a struggle, I am still one short of the entire set, but I know I need to be patient and keep trying.
Wearing clothing is now such a nice new feeling, being it tight jeans or leggings... next weekend will be swimsuit.
I am cleared for light activities and technically could also start running again. But I also know that after a more active day, I do still get swelling and need an I e pack so I continue to take it slow.
I have about 4 weeks left on leave from work and I do want to use this time to reorganize my office. As long as I take it slow, I will be fine.
This weekend will be my first activity with my running group. I stick to walking, but still. (Well the second one but on the first I did not do anything).
Besides that - my personal life is in a bit of turmoil.
I have been really doing very well for over 5 months but every now and then it hits me. The good thing is that these episodes are short lived and I manage to get through them fairly well. It's also very new to me, that there is absolutely no thought of self harm anymore. I call this a very good sign.
As usual, tomorrow will be a new day, the sun will rise and things will be good again
What is everyone planning for Memorial Day Weekend?
We will dip into our pool for the first time and invite friends over for some backyard fun. We also have a big festival / carnival in town every year and I am sure Kiddo wants to go there a lot.
So much for now.
Hugs everyone...
Sarah
