YAYYY!!!

[thisnewday]

Had my last follow-up exam with the surgeon today. Answered all the usual questions but couldn't help doing it with a smile on my face.

[The nurse enters.]

Nurse: Are you still on the Oxycontin?

Me: Nope, never was. Had it, but never used it.

Nurse: How are you feeling overall?

Me: About 200 x better than the first time I was in here!

Nurse: Great! We'll take that all day! Anything else we can help you with?

Me: We-l-l-l, I do have this car payment.

Nurse: (laughing) OMG, I just made mine this morning!

Me: So I guess that's a no. (laughing)

[A few minutes later, the doc comes in.]

Doc: Any pain? Any swelling? Any concerns about anything?

Me: Nope, nope, and nope!

Doc: So are you pretty much back to your normal activities?

Me: Yup, doing my treadmill and workout every day, which was my goal.

Doc: Great! That's where we see our best outcomes, with folks who do the work to recover.

After that, I came home and made my chicken & lettuce salad with home-made, low-sodium dressing.

Will probably shoot some targets later and then start Sally Field's autobiography, In Pieces, which is our next month's book club selection.

Which makes this a pretty good day...
