Peeking my head out the window for fresh air

I feel as if I've been in a tunnel these past couple of weeks. There is still some pain and nausea but I can walk around and even take a trip into town without having to immediately crawl back to my pillow. I also had my first solid food in awhile last night. I've been existing on white flour crackers, french bread, and occasionally slices of Colby cheese.

Most of today will be spent on the sofa but I can accompany my husband to a doctor's visit at the VA later this morning.

There is even hope of some creative projects, books to read, and recipes to try in the near future.

Thank you again for your comments, e-mails, and prayers. They have been greatly appreciated.
