Good Bye Meds


Another week has past. In all I am now 3 weeks out from surgery and the best thing is that I’m off all pain meds!!

Okay, you might not think its a big deal, but it really is. I’ve been off the big medicine since day 5, but was still running the risk of over-dosing on Advil ever since. So to say that I’m off all pain killers is great.

Not much else has happened. Katie and Michael came by for a few days which meant that Kramer was there too. All ways going fine. Mike goes out, we sit out in the sun a bit, Katie visits friends, we watch the dogs, same old same old.

The dogs were running around outside one day, and since they got so muddy we had to put them somewhere way from the carpet. We ended up wanting to go out to brunch so we had to put Kramer in the bathroom - the place where we normally put Nikolai when we go out. But what can we do, he was still muddy.

It wasn’t until latter in the day that I realized a problem...kind of.

Mud was all over the bathroom including inside the bath tube that I have been using in the first floor (we fixed it so I could take a shower there with my foot). Anyway, I had just gotten a new bar of soap and guess what...it was gone. No soap + mud tracks in the tub = Kramer ate the soap.

He realized the next day that you really shouldn’t eat that stuff. He was really unhappy by the end of the day, but since he had thrown up 6 times - mostly on the carpet - I couldn’t feel too bad.

So there is the week 3. Just 3 more until surgery number 2.
