Saw my gyn yesterday and I'm "in the clear" and can resume all normal activities, as I feel up to them. She said it would be another 3 to 4 months of "good days and bad" before I suddenly wake up one morning and realize I'm back to normal (or even better than normal). Right now with the changing temperatures, I'm dealing with a lot of congestion. We've been hitting the upper 30s/lower 40s at night, with highs in the 60s in the days (which is very pleasant). I have a feeling that it's the lows and all the wind blowing in this cold front (as well as whatever mold or spores, etc.) that is to blame on my sinuses.

God is good! Dh has been called for contract jobs fairly consistently. He's been "unemployed" since the day I found out I would need surgery, back in July. We're still needing the unemployment checks, and it's more month-to-month survival, but we're at least getting enough to not worry too much about food and such. ;) In fact, we're considering (if he can get on with enough companies), to not necessarily seek a full-time "normal" job, but to continue with contract jobs. Glenn's been crunching numbers and it appears that this could work, and perhaps even give him 3-4 day work weeks, giving him time for other projects.

Heading for my second cup of tea for the morning and something to eat... Oh, check out PRMama's column today where I wrote about my experience in writing my book.
