My goodness having surgery sure takes the starch out of you, doesn’t it? I feel like I’m in a perma-fog. All I want to do is sleep sleep sleep.
The surgery itself was rather uneventful ~ always a good thing, surgery-wise. I have a nifty Frankenstein like thing going on behind my ear and the right side of my face is a bit puffy. I forgot about this part – I can’t taste anything on the right hand side of my tongue. This happened with the other surgeries and it’s really odd. Everything is kind of metallic feeling on my tongue. It should go away in a couple of months though.
At least I have this pretty quilt to snuggle under while I convalesce. My sister made it and gave it to me for my birthday. The colors are so muted and pretty and it just makes me happy to look at it.
Here’s an unrumpled view of it:
I may never get out of bed.
Except I have planting to do – another sister gave me plants and I need to get them in the ground. I have just the perfect spot for them. I love bleeding hearts ~ they are so Victorian looking to me. I can picture stepping out of my conservatory into my little walled garden of roses, forget-me-nots and bleeding hearts.
For now it’s back to bed – I promise to be perkier very soon.
Welcome back and I hope you have a quick recovery. Of course, how could you not be comforted under that beautiful quilt your sister gave you. She does beautiful work!
so glad you are back
The quilt is beautiful
Welcome back – I’m glad the surgery was uneventful and I’m hoping for a swift and complete recovery for you. What a gorgeous quilt – wow, I’d never want to leave my bedroom if that was on my bed! LOVELY!
So you and I both are daughters of Frankenstein?! You and your ear and me and my leg. I wish you a speedy recovery nestled in that lovely quilt!
Andrea, so glad you’re back! Just go ahead & sleep! That’s all part of the healing process. The quilt is just beautiful and probably so much fun to roll up in. The planting will still be there when you completely recover so don’t stress about getting to much done. I do have to say those bleeding hearts are beautiful, too. Very Victorian, indeed!
What a lovely, lovely quilt–and I hope you’re back to your old self quickly!
Hope you have a quick recovery!!
That quilt is beautiful. Looks like a wonderful quilt for snuggling!
The photo of the Bleeding Heart is gorgeous!
