So Saturday started out pretty great. After some errands John and I went to Old Town for lunch then just sat outside in the grass by the water. We did some talking and some reading and had to hide under a tree from the rain for a few minutes. It was all so peaceful and beautiful. We cooked a wonderful dinner together that night.
Then I was all sick. And not from too much Indian food as I first thought. At 3:30 am we went to the ER. Ruptured ovarian cyst (again!) and kidney infection (yes, again) at the same time! No wonder there were multiple areas of stabby feelings. Been 3 years since the other cyst so my doc figured it was a fluke. We'll see what they say at my follow-up.
So I've been in bed on Vicodin pretty much since then. Oh John did help me hobble to a watering hole and found a pretty rock. Not the smartest thing I have ever done but I really needed to get out of the house. I went into work today (after skipping yesterday) because I was feeling better (still in some pain but it was tolerable) and I had a proposal to do. I felt bad that I had to pawn of yesterdays, didn't want them to cover 2 if it wasn't necessary. Well the proposal wasn't ready for edit so I left early. Probably a good thing b/c I was achy and it was good to just rest this afternoon. Even if I never did fall asleep like I wanted.
Vacation is coming up so I'm glad this happened now and not while I am in the woods. Still, I would like to be back to my regular energy level and be totally pain free.
