I made it through to the other side...

I am doing well after surgery. Hardly any pain anymore. I have been up for several hours now and haven't taken a pain pill yet. I am getting ready to go with my mom this afternoon and continue to disinfect my apartment so I'm sure the no painkiller thing will change.

I have a big upside down t on my belly where they did the tummy tuck and hernia repair. They found another hernia in my belly button so they couldn't salvage my belly button so I'm neither an innie or an outie LOL. I have 2 JP Drains in when they don't produce more than a certain amount then I can have them removed.

So far the no smoking thing is going good but that is because the temptation level is relatively low out here. I can't drive to get any and my parents don't smoke (or at least don't admit to it LOL) so I don't have access to any. I am going home tonight though and my neighbor down the way is more than willing to let me bum some off of him and that is hard to avoid when the cravings get really bad. So I am going to get mom to go to Walmart with me and pick me up some mints and some vitamin C and zinc suckers because those seem to help them most with cravings.

So just wanted you to know that I came out ok.
