Today is 3 weeks since my back surgery, and 1 week back to work part time. The verdict...things are definitely better, not 100% but much better. My surgery pain is pretty much gone, just an occasional tinge in my back where my scar is when I bend or twist weird. I guess that's my back reminding me i'm not supposed to move that way. The leg pain is a different ball game. The pain I had before is totally gone but I'm having some muscle weakness/numbness/just overall weird feeling in my leg. This has just happened since i went back to work. I think its normal and its just since my leg is getting used to being back in action. Ah, slowly but surely i'm getting back to normal.
In other news, I've realized my life is quite a bit more boring when I can't go out and hang out with people. But there are a few things going on with me.
1. Got my hair cut today. 7 inches gone!! Ah yeah, yikes! It was a little more than I had planned but the lady said I needed it. Now granted, my hair is still bra length but yikes its a big change for me. I only get my hair cut like twice a year and usually get about 5 inches cut off at a time. This time I just got a little more. No biggie I suppose but the worst is when you take your first shower after getting a BIG hair cut. You squeeze in a huge glob of shampoo then suddenly realize, shit, I don't need all that! And then again, same thing with the mousse, damn, didn't need it! Ok maybe that's just me.
2. I got kicked out of my desk at work and had to move to another. So i'm adjusting to that. I knew it was coming sooner or later because the desk I was using was a 'loaner' but man, right when I get back to work suddenly I gotta move!! And if moving isn't bad enough, I got moved away from 'my group' and over by the bitchy lady, with whom I've had several all out shouting matches with--yeah that's right--at work! So I look forward to our next run-in!!
3. I went and worked out today for the first time--now before you spaz and say 'what the hell, you can't be doing that!!' the dr said I could do walking, biking and eliptical. So today, at my first day back at snatch fitness, I did a half hour walk and did some 5lb bicep curls and some 5lb shoulder work. I figured I'd try and regain some of my arm tone considering i'm in a wedding in a week and a half. Maybe its too late but it never hurts to try. But I AM glad to be back to the gym.
I guess that about covers it for now. I have a few issues brewing around in my head that I know will come out on here probably sooner rather than later. One is my shoe blog that I know I've promised to a few...no worries, it will come. And I just know they'll be things a-happening soon that I may finally need to explode about....stay tuned :)

Sorry about the move next to the office bitch, that's too bad but your hair looks GREAT!!
So what exactly does "bra-length" hair look like?! :)
Bra lenth means it goes to where your bra sits on your back. There's shoulder length and bra length and low back length like mine was before
