Thank you!!!!!

Yes!!! Exactly that, I’m frustrated that I can’t do everything 😅

I’m okay! Most of my pain is better, I’ve had good days and bad days but I was back at work this week, just have to take it easy and make sure I don’t keep my abdomen tensed up so I’m trying to remind myself to take stretch breaks and be ~kind to myself because that 2 week healing time is BS 😂

Also I’m super fucking bored. Bed rest is torture 🫠

I’ve almost finished a craft and I don’t want to watch anything anymore.

I’m half way through Dune and it’s overdue at the library but reading feels too hard

And it’s not really pain, it just feels like my scrambled insides are trying to leave out of said holes.

I’m told feeling your insides in such detail is an autism thing

My gallbladder decided to make stones. Hospital visit in may, keyhole surgery last Thursday.

I made a fool of myself while high on fentanyl and now my most important goals in this week are to not eat bad food and to poop on occasion 😂

Also do gay men just not do laundry and survive on take out? Are the moms doing the work like it’s probs expected of single straight cis men? Im so confused.

Honey got half way through this and literally dropped her chippies in shock 😂

Also like, why are those all women’s jobs? Can a man not budget? Or turn on a washing machine? Drive the kids to school?

Some days you offer hugs and tissues and some days you get yelled at and coughed on

I know pharmacy isn’t as high risk as an ER, but some days it’s boring old colds and flus and heart meds and some days it’s a chick who’s self harmed and just wants butterfly strips, and a guy who has cellulitis in his entire lower leg you know.

We do this because it’s in our DNA.

Also I love the contrast of standing on the roof, and not jumping.

Idk how to explain but it’s like, every day you go to work, you’re taking a risk, and by some grace of god, you don’t jump, you survive, and you go home. And tomorrow you do it again.

I’ve been finding it hard to find the silver linings recently, but apparently catching covid and working on today’s NYT crossword is helping 🌻
