Lots to be thankful for!

It has been four weeks since the surgery and I can't believe how fast the time has gone. I am doing very well and have been getting out of the house pretty much every day. I hope to go back to work this Wednesday just to see how I do and to get back into the swing of things. I have healed almost to the point of feeling like my old self, and all that is left is a little soreness in my chest.

I had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year and my uncles from Florida both came up to visit and I enjoyed spending time with them. I have a lot to be thankful for this year, including
1. My family
2. Tim, who has been absolutely amazing through everything
2. My friends
3. My health now that everything has gone well
4. The Blum family and all of their endless love, support and generosity
5. The Internet, which kept me very occupied while sitting on the couch recovering
6. Bad reality tv that has also entertained me
7. Good writers so my brain didn't go to mush too much

I have already noticed a difference in how I am feeling, in my appetite and my energy level so I can't wait to feel 100% so I can start to work out. Tim and I want to join a gym and work out together, he's going to be my lifting coach :)
I'm a little nervous about going back to work but feel that if I don't at least try to go back that I'll just be delaying the inevitable. I still have to wait another week before I can drive, and I've been sitting in the back seat every time I go somewhere, so its been nice being chauffeured around town.

Now its time to think about Christmas, I can't believe that its less than a month away! Happy Holidays to everyone!
