Big Mistake...Big...Huge

Happy Sunday!

I can't believe it's been 3 weeks today since I came home from the hospital. It seems like forever ago and like it was yesterday, all at once. I am feeling a lot less sore overall, which is wonderful. I'm still having to pace myself a lot. I do a bit. Rest. Do a bit more. Rest. You get the picture.

I still have the foggy overall feeling - though I'm trying to convince myself it's decreasing! The lagging effect of all the drugs in my system is not so fun. And, I'm just uncomfortable enough that it messes with my sleep - which has been somewhat of a challenge. I don't operate too well on 4 hours total (mostly non-consecutive) hours of sleep in normal circumstances, let alone while I'm trying to heal from major surgery. It has made me look back and wonder how I functioned at all with newborns after having c-sections. But, this surgery made those look like a breeze!

Steve and I had some unexpected down time this weekend. Colson and Ashlyn went to Jiggy's to play yesterday afternoon. Very quickly, play time turned into "we want to sleep here!" So, I packed their bags, their pillows, etc. and dropped it all off. Steve and I were hanging out around 8...8:30...9...not knowing whether or not we'd get the "we don't want to sleep here" call. But, no phone rings! And, when I went this morning to pick them up, Colson said, "I want to stay here for-evah!" Dude, the puzzle master, was working (very successfully) on a 300 piece puzzle that Jiggy had bought for them to set up on her dining room table. Jiggy and I also worked on the puzzle with him. She's tempted to work on it some herself (puzzles, they're addicting) and I'm fairly certain Colson will bitch her out if she does too many "matches" without him!

I volunteered for Colson's elementary school's PTA yesterday. I heard back from the President quickly with details of the Hospitality Chair position. Organizing/planning various events throughout the year is the basic description. I feel it will be a fantastic place to channel my sickness for organizing and planning events! :)

Big plans tomorrow. Okay, plans. The kids both have school. I get to tackle some of the interesting Great Occasions details. We just relaunched the site, so there's all sorts of adventures occurring. And, I may catch a movie with Nate. Stuff. Rest. Stuff. Rest.

Oh, and can anyone guess which movie I watched last night (one I've seen a million times but not in forever)? I believe one of you out there was with me when I first saw it in the theater...am I right The First Mrs. C.?
