You resolve to be a good wife and get back to cleaning, si D ma'am!

Anesthesia affects different people differently and can take quite a while to wear off, seriously D ma'am.

And once the swelling goes down, you'll no longer be a swell individual, sorry D ma'am.

I don't know why anesthesia hits me so hard. it seems to take days for me to start really moving around. I have zero energy but managed to get some cleaning done today. Pain wise it's almost non existent, mostly just pressure from the swelling. 

 

Secret red-head by chance?  I know anesthesia works differently on them.

Today was a day of gardening cooking/baking.  In the past two days, I've harvested an unbelievable amount from my raised beds.  Right now it is all about tomatoes, zucchinis, cucumbers, potatoes, and onions.  Then, the neighbors came over with 7 cucumbers.  In any case, today included cooking freshly harvested potatoes, making tomato sauce to freeze, baking zucchini bread, making a strawberry sauce for the fridge, and preparing a ton of zucchinis for the freezer.

The light 'day surgery' anesthesia knocks me out for a full 24hrs, the heavier stuff takes me at least 3 days to recover from.

Glad you are done and pain free :)

Everything crossed for a smooth and stress free journey

No secret red unless that gene is buried way deep! 

 

Sounds like a good haul. I like to shred zucchini and put 2 cups per bag in the freezer to make chocolate zucchini bread all through the year.

Thank you, I'm happy to be done with it too. 

I'm not sure what this stuff was. The surgery was an hour and a half and sure took it's time wearing off. I'm happy I didn't do this a few years ago when the Tornado was itty bitty it would have been too rough.

I have 6 people here right now, not one of these people asked me if I wanted something when they went for lunch. 

One of them has followed me around for 14 years now. 

Now, is it mandated? No. 

Is it good office etiquette? Yes!

Especially when I'm the one that pays them!

I do these a-holes favors all day long..

Why do we never find these things wearing boiler suits and wellies? :D

Hope it isn't too bad a dose, it can be nasty stuff.

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.
