The recovery process has been going really well. I've been trying to do things more and more on my own. I've really been trying to take as little of my meds as possible. Those things made me pretty loopy and had some other nasty side effects, I'm down to taking them once every twelve hours. The pain is manageable (at least it's nothing compared to doing a sub-five minute Fran, right?).
I'm starting to miss my friends and general interaction with people other than my mom. I've even sunk to a new low... I'm sending out Christmas cards!
I start pyhsical therapy tomorrow. I'm looking forward to it. I'm shocked at how quickly I've lost muscle in my arm. It's crazy. I've never had surgry before, so I wasn't sure what to expect. My arm has pretty much been immobilized for nearly a week now. When I took off my brace I noticed how small my forarm was compared to the other. I have a little ball that I have started squeezin to keep those muscles working.
not my chest (I hope that's obvious)
All in all, the past week has had some rough moments, but it's been a nice break from my usually hectic days. I think I'll be able to get back into the blue room with a positive attitude some time in January. I can't wait too see everyone for the happy hour on Friday... get ready guys, I'm wearing sequence and I'll even blow dry my hair!

Oh Georgia! I'll collect sequins tube tops anything sparkly that could be distracting!
