I don't like any of those because I don't have any of those where I am concerned. I have so much patience for others that it drives my husband crazy, but for myself? oh,no, honey....it ain't happening!! Well, at least until this week. 

 

For those of you who only follow this blog, I had a benign brain tumor removed about a month ago, yup, three months after the back surgery. I'm no young chick and this is NOT fun!! I feel so different with the brain surgery than I have with any of the other surgeries I've had....and I've had about 14 surgeries in my life....but who's counting. At this point in my recovery from any of those, I would have thought OK, pain....pain tells me I'm not ready to get out and get moving yet. This is different!!! I don't have a lot of pain, I'm getting the use of my hand and arm back, but all I want to do is sleep!!! I do one little thing, and wham, here comes the pillow! 

 

Please, oh, please send me patience because I really, really need it. 

 

This is more of my "therapy"....I'm not back to where I would like to be or where I had planned to be by now, but I'm not complaining...really....I'm not.....
