I got up early. Got coffee & a super sonic breakfast burrito from guess who SONIC!

I got my blood test at the hospital in Trinidad Colorado. Greg & I drove to Longmont to attend a funeral for a wonderful woman Adalea Shaver.

Played a little wii at the house before going to Armadillo's mexican food.

That's all the exercise the fatman project got today.

Then to Dillon early to bed to be rested for a day of skiing.

Good night!

OK we made it to Trinidad Colorado at about 11:30 ish. Stopped at the Trails End motel on main street 49.95 good deal.

Have a blood test lined up for the hospital right down the street here in Trinidad.

Good to go sleep time.....................

Not much of a fitness blog lately.

I AM OUT of the hospital ! Thank Goodness!!

OK I have to vent.

It looks like now for the next 2 to 3 months. I will be on a ____ blood thinner starting with Lovenox shots. I will give myself a shot every 12 hours for the next 7 days.

Plus at the same time once a day. I take a Comaodin pill.

Arghhhh that's going to be for the next 2 to 3 ____ months.

Also I have to get a blood test every other day to make sure my INR levels are right.

Check my temperature & my blood pressure 4 times a day.

So.....listen & learn from other peoples experiences ........ I will never do an elective surgery again. I will live with a little discomfort. What I am talking about is.

I had a Pilonidal cyst on my back side right at the top of my cute little tan butt.

It bothered me once or twice a month sometimes it would go for months never acting up.

Not that big a deal right? Right....... NO instead of just saying no big deal. I had to mess with myself & my health.

Now I have to take it easy not do this, not do that. But do all that _____ stuff above.

So the moral to the story is never do an elective surgery. Just tough it out. Things can be a lot worse. However, even though all this ____ has happened. I am still going skiing with Greg. I will survive. I will deal with it. So green slopes only for me. We are going to keystone. Been there done that pretty easy if you want it to be.

Got to wear a helmet doctors orders. Big head already, now a BIGGER head.

OMGoodness................ I am still in the hospital.

I have to get out of here. I want to go skiing with Greg.

I might design Hospitals but I really do not like being a patient.

The stay is great for the design process. I know first hand what, when, how it works.

BUT............I lay, sit, pace, watch TV, blog, face book, my space watch movies etc.

Then the nurse comes in asked how are you takes your vitals (107 77 could not be better).

I get a shot of LOVENOX in my belly every 12 hours which I do myself.

Then a pill of Coumadin 5mg twice a day.

All of this to thin my blood.

There is no real reason in my limited mind that I should have to stay here.

I CAN DO IT MYSELF.
