First Day back at work

The alarm actually woke me up and I was excited and nervous to go back to work.  I leave pretty early so got a seat on the express train.  Switched at Dekalb Ave (only 2 stops until work) and there were no seats so was just holding on to the pole.  A very nice middle aged gentleman asked me if I wanted to sit.  At first I thought -"does he think I am pregnant", but I do have a flat tummy!  I guess I looked more tired than I thought.  I did forget to put mascara on before I left the house (was so excited to go out!) and it's good thing I keep emergency make up at work.

Was so good to see everyone.  I did not last all day, building up stamina slowly.  I ate much better at work than when I am home.  There is way too much crap on top of my fridge.  I am going to either bring to work or throw it all out!!

Had a great weekend in the Hudson with Rob.  We never got into the culinary institute but ate at a wonderful restaurant called Crave in Poughkeepsie.  Did the walk across the Hudson and was a beautiful day.  Had a picnic lunch (complete with wine poured into water bottles) as it is an alcohol free park!  Always a way around things.

I still feel like I have weights on my chest and emailed the doctor this morning who said it was a normal feeling.  I guess it is all part of the healing process.

Next doctor appointment is Friday for my first inflation (pump up)! 

Have a good week all.
