Hernia Repair

I'm a 3 holer, just like a 1955 Buick Special.

Healing up nicely. The Dr gave me an Rx for 800mg Motrin, 3 QID. I took one as soon as I got the Rx filled around 1 PM on Thursday and another around 9:30 PM. He said to take them the first couple of days whether I needed them or not. The pills made me very nauseous and I slept very little Thursday night. I'll not take any more of them.
Friday morning, some soreness, but feeling pretty good, I went out and ran a few errands. Te Dr told me that I could drive after 4 to eight hours. The wife said that he said 48 hours but, I heard 4 to 8 hours. :rolleyes: I got back home around 10 AM and rested a bit. Still doing well.
I knew that @Have gun-will travel was going to be at Battery Oaks around noon. I had talked to him by PM and on the phone several times but I had never met him. Every time that he came to Conway, I was at work. I gathered up a few things and drove on over. Had a good visit with @RS and @BatteryOaksBilly and got to meet @Have gun-will travel . We even got to fire a few rounds at the Wizard. I tried my Bersa with a proper magazine and it works like a charm.
Friday night and this morning, I'm pretty sore. Not painful, just sore. All of the numbing from the surgery is gone and I was pretty active yesterday. After all, I started my errands less than 24 hours from my surgery. I know that I'm very fortunate to have come through this as easily as I have so far. Yep, I'm sore but the only way to get rid of soreness is to work it out.
Billy is getting a shipment of bowling pins tomorrow. It's going to be very hard for me not to jump in and help unload them. But, I know that I can't do it and I'll have to watch. I don't know what would be worse, the pain when I picked up a box of the pins or the flogging Ronnie Sue would give me with a switch. So, I'll just stand off to the side and criticize everyone that's doing the actual work.

Don't pick anything up. This is your opportunity to be lazy and not feel bad about it.

Make the whippersnappers do all the carrying for a few days. But, shooting/drinking/cussing/directing should be fine.

Hmmm.…...Looks more like bite marks to me than anything surgical. I'll assist you in identifying the possible suspects.
