It was a pretty quiet morning here.  The systems continue to function as intended and the pain continues to diminish, so I’m beginning to spend more time sitting upright.  Still, there are limits before my belly says “enough.”

A coworker stopped in for a nice lunchtime visit.  Afterwards, I found myself a bit tired, so I crawled into bed and the next thing I know, it was 3:30.  I guess I needed the sleep.

I’m soooo looking forward to the catheter removal tomorrow, if for no other reason than because I’ll be able to sleep on my sides again without fear of tugging on it in the middle of the night.  Of course, the whole freedom thing ranks right up there as another reason to anticipate its removal.

After the nap, I called a couple of friends to update them on my status and progress.

Aside from that, there’s really not much else to report.
