Back to Work

Well, I'm back to work, sort of!!! I made it for the whole 8 hours yesterday, but I was completely exhausted by the time I got home. Today I only did 4 1/2 hours. Then I came home and slept for 3 hours.

I'm still exhausted. Like to the bone tired!!! I don't know if this is the remaining effect of the surgery or if the "normal" half of my thyroid is not quite keeping up.

I have determined that if I am not feeling measurably better by Monday, I will see the doctor--even if I have to wait for 3 hours in the lobby!!!

On the brighter side, this is Good Friday!! I love the whole Easter season!! (No, I do not mean the eggs, chocolate, etc.) I love thinking about the sacrifice that Jesus made for my sins (and for the sins of the whole world). And the victory He brought out of the grave for us!! I am amazed at His great love for us.

Have a wonderful weekend, Folks!

Wow! You worked EIGHT hours your first day back? No wonder you are tired, girl! I'm thankful to hear you only worked 4 1/2 the next day and I can understand why you are so tired, Theresa. Rest and sleep as much as you can. If I have learned one thing over the past few months it is the healing virtue of rest for these bodies of ours. I am not talking about just giving up and becoming lazy, but we (Americans especially) grossly underestimate our body's need for REST, whether it is after surgery, dealing with a cold or a back injury. (climbing down off of my soap box *grin*) I have learned this from personal experience, believe me. I love you and continue to pray for you Sis. Theresa. ((HUGS)) May you have a blessed Easter with your family!
