In Response To: Strip: Heart surgery is done. (Scott Wilcher- Chesapeake VA)

Got home yesterday. Was delayed by some blood work.

Feel good, but too busy sorting pills into my daily doses and visiting doctors today to work in the garage. I did go out and pat the strongback to make sure it didn't feel neglected.

Funny how just walking into the garage and smelling the cut wood makes me feel better.

if the pain eases a bit, hoping to rough out the forms tomorrow... or recruit someone to do it. ....
baby steps....

: Heading home from the hospital tomorrow! Had a mitral valve successfully
: repaired. Really excited to go home tomorrow, because I have a Spring Run
: L by Redfish waiting to be stripped.

: Started the project (strongback, and stations,Got the strips cut too!) before
: the surgery, so that I can have a project during the rehab that will allow
: me to see results each day. Sometimes in my line of work (youth ministry
: coaching) I don't see results and sometimes the soreness of recovery feels
: slow and invisible.

: A Kayak is clear and visible. The wood smells good and the garage is warming
: as spring comes. Sounds like therapy to me! I am ready to get home!

: Sharp planes and percocet seem like an interesting combo as well.
