The Road : Post Op Day 5

Ok, so travel has been interrupted on "the Journey" slightly. I am not sure how to describe it other than ....did you ever trip on a sidewalk when you were in a hurry?
Yes, I think it has been a lot like that only incredibly more expensive and annoying. I will not ramble on about pain, you may or may not be familiar with my feelings about that...and anyway that is all about perception.  Yes, perception. That is a great word. Cornerstone of life : Our perception of different events and experiences , and how WE CHOOSE to react to them.

So today is  Post Op Day 5. Day 6 if we count cut day, LOL. Other than feeling strangely tired at random times, I think I feel quite well. I am not sure where the cursed crutches are right now. I last used them on POD #2. So that part is good. Areas that hurt prior to the big day no longer hurt. However  there are some other annoying areas I have multiple questions in reference to for the Bone Man . Hope he is ready...free advice here--- if you have non-medical family members, it is probably a good idea to send them a companion that speaks medical for the postop review with the surgeon. The BabyDaddy seems only to remember "blah,blah,blah you can see her in a few minutes". And of course that " well,the pictures didn't look like the ones of MY knee surgery". Come. On. What was it ? 1999 ?
( I can tell you that he DOES NOT have that kind of recall).

So I continue on the road as I can. I am doing my leg exercises. I am doing my upper body workout...still. But I walk in to do it. And I keep doing it.
