So Beloved
I am a lucky woman. My daughter spent the day with me, kept Mike company during the surgery, and baby-sat me while Mike made a drug medicine run after we made it home. Sollie kept me company on the couch, while Sassy's been standing guard over me all afternoon...every time I'd move, she'd jump up to see if I was ok.
And Mike has been endlessly replenishing my fluids & caffeine levels, waiting on me hand & foot, taking the dogs out & everything. He even bought me a "Get-Well" balloon when he picked up my medicine...he's never bought me a balloon in the 3 yrs. I've known him, even after the other 2 surgeries I had. (We just don't do balloonies.) But that's not the most impressive thing.
He insisted on putting one of his sacred SpongeBob SquarePants band-aids on my IV boo-boo.
Is that true love or what?
(Why yes I did just take another Percocet, how did you know? I'm feeling better....I feel...happy!)
