the slow recovery

[ilanarama]

I hate being not 100%. I hate it. I think of myself as skinny athletic active-girl and my stomach is still distended from the surgery and I went grocery shopping today and it nearly killed me. I was leaning on the cart and breathing hard, and I had to get the bagger to come load my groceries in the truck (in the truck! Usually I hike down with a backpack and fill it with 50 pounds of food) and then came home and told Britt to unload it all, I was heading for bed. Waah.

I got the emergency-room bill and that almost killed me too. Waiting to see if the insurance company plays nice. Scared to think of what the actual surgery bill is going to be. Universal Health Care NOW, dammit.
