Day 42 (six weeks)

Surgery day plus 6 weeks

This morning I celebrated this marker day with two brisk laps around the block.  Last week I began to add a lap to my walk around the block and timed myself at 16 minutes and 40 seconds per lap.  I pushed myself a little today and walked lap one at 16 minutes and 20 seconds and lap two at 16 minutes flat.

PS: When Bec got home we used the car’s odometer to get an idea of the length of the block.  We measured the block at exactly 1.6 kilometer (1 mile).

I dropped in on everyone in the office this afternoon.  That was fun to visit briefly with all my colleagues and regale them with my surgical adventure.  However, when I got home I was pretty spent.  The drive and the traffic and the emotion all taxed me.  I definitely needed (and took) a nap after that!
