better and better

As the title says, my post knee surgery is getting better and better. It felt so good, I went on my first motorcycle ride in quite a while yesterday. I kept it short though. And kept it short again today :)
Might start taking a little longer ride as the healing continues.

The Good Juice

Surgery went amazingly well yesterday. When the guy came in to start the "happy medicine", I told Alicia she'd better kiss me then before I forgot what all was going on. And true enough, that is about all I remember. I do remember being wheeled back and scooting over to the O.R. table. I remember just a small bit of waking up in recovery and hearing a couple nurses gossiping about a co-worker. Alicia said I was too funny cause as I was waking up, I would ask her the same series of questions several times :) As Alicia said in her post last night, I'm still pain free PTL!!!
I had a couple darvocet on my nightstand during the night just in case but didn't need them at all. I'll just keep praying for a total healing and we won't have to use the word "replacement" anymore.

Living out here in the sticks as we do, I get the occasional chance to climb on the tractor and mow for a couple days... Now anyone that has ever been on a tractor for an extended period of time will tell you, there is not much else to do except think. Alicia will tell you about my thinking on a tractor ;) Anyway, I was out there this evening just mowing away and pondering life and got to thinking about Pastor's message yesterday. He talked about the things we go through in life and not knowing why but then later on saying awwwwwwwwwww. I got to thinking about where I am now and where I might have been if certain things had not worked the way they did. I'm darn glad God knows what he is doing with my life because there have been a kajillion times when I would be like "What am I doing with my life" but have lately learned to just let God have control.
