I finally went back to work last week. Boy was that tough. I thought I would be going stir crazy being at home but I actually kept myself pretty busy with my crafts and cooking and other fun things. Being away from work was probably a blessing in disguise because before I left I was confused about my job and the way some things were going. I was burnt out I guess....The more time I took off due to my surgery, the less I wanted to go back. I loved being able to get up and do things around the house. I loved being able to sit in my craft room for hours and come up with creative things for my house. I loved being able to edit my pictures and that sort of thing. I did miss my co-workers dearly. I love my job and the work that I do but man I wish money grew on trees & insurance benefits weren't so expensive these days.....
So back to work I went and although Tuesday was dreadful, I was excited to see my co-workers and get back into the swing of things. I was busy and EXHAUSTED by the end of the day. My doctor told me I would be good to go within 6 weeks but my body might not agree. I get tired so easily and I need to build my strength back up a.s.a.p. I was sure glad when my Friday rolled around. Here's to hoping week two of work will be better and I will have some more energy. No time to be tired anymore but I am grateful I have an amazing supervisor who understands what I'm going through and totally supports me. She's great and therefore that makes me love my job! I'm sure someday I will have the opportunity to open my own business and work from home with my photography or something but for now I will appreciate that I have a good job and go to work with a smile on my face! :)
As for my body and my surgery...the doctor says I'm healing fantastic. Somedays I sure don't feel fantastic though. Like yesterday I was walking around Gateway with a friend and literally felt like I could go back to my car and sleep for 5 hours. I'm ready to go on hikes and nightly runs and that sort of thing but I guess I still need to take it easy. I haven't decided whats best for me right now...the doctor gave me 3 options and I'm still confused. Imagine that....Life long decisions like these are tough and maybe I am just being to indecisive but I don't know what to do with my body. I sure as hell don't want to go through that surgery again though so choosing the best option whether it be medicine that tricks my body into thinking it's going through menopause, a baby, or just birth control is down right stressful. So for now I'm taking it one day at a time and eventually I will decide. Sooner than later because the longer I wait the more my body will grow more Endometreosis and well we don't want that! That's all.....
