I&#8217;m healing up really well!  I still have the small opening in my tummy tuck scar, but it is healing up slowly and not infected or anything.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I still have my cursed drains.  They have to be below 15cc each for three consecutive days to be removed.  They&#8217;ve been hanging out around 60-75 all week.  So yeah&#8230;  I had hoped I could get them out Friday when I get back in town.  Looks like I&#8217;ll still have them when I return to work!  At least I&#8217;m working from home.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oh, speaking of.  Sunday, I got a text from my boss that he quit.  He&#8217;s the only person I knew and the one who hired me.  So that&#8217;s weird.  No idea what this job is going to be like.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, post-op.  I&#8217;m doing well.  I can take care of myself completely now.  I can even do my own bandages over the drains and stuff.  Swelling has gone down tremendously.  I can reach my feet!  I&#8217;ve missed my feet.  I can put on my own socks!  I&#8217;m still really swollen in the stomach and arms, obviously, but my legs are returning to normal.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another 11 hour journey in the car tomorrow.  Last one was rough.  I got nausea even with the anti nausea patch and had to resort to my surgery anti-nausea pill.  We had to stop every two hours per doctors orders, but it was more like per my bladder.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"539\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/compare.jpg?resize=1024%2C539&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/compare-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C539&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/compare-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C158&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/compare-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C404&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/compare-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C809&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/compare-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1078&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/compare-scaled.jpg?w=2340&amp;ssl=1 2340w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"757\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/arms4Weeks.jpg?resize=1024%2C757&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-565\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/arms4Weeks-scaled.jpg?resize=1024%2C757&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/arms4Weeks-scaled.jpg?resize=300%2C222&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/arms4Weeks-scaled.jpg?resize=768%2C568&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/arms4Weeks-scaled.jpg?resize=1536%2C1136&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/arms4Weeks-scaled.jpg?resize=2048%2C1515&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cursingcats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/arms4Weeks-scaled.jpg?w=2340&amp;ssl=1 2340w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today marks four weeks from my surgery (Tummy Tuck \/ Abdominoplasty with Placation and Arm Lift \/ Bracioplasty).
