the weekend is over...

I have made it through the weekend...my friend CT and her husband CT have been "holding me hostage" (let's say i didn't necessarily fight back too much!) at their house. Since i am supposed to be taking it easy and everyone is worried about my meds, they decided I should stay with them so they could monitor me and make sure i was staying on the couch and not doing anything. They even hid the knives and other sharp objects so i won't cut myself since I will have a problem clotting for the next few months on these drugs.
These shots in the stomach aren't a lot of fun - for some reason on my left side I get these knots and bruise really easily but on the right side, i don't have any problems. It is so weird. But I only have today and tomorrow and i am finished with the shots! YAHOO!!!! I have a doctors appointment tomorrrow to check my blood and to make sure everything is okay...and for me to ask a lot of questions. I asked a lot in the hospital but everyone keeps asking me more questions that i can't answer - so i need to go ask my doctor again!!!
I am working from home today and tomorrow and will probably go back on Wednesday. The doctor said as long as i have a 'desk job' I can work....just no walking 3 miles back and forth to my car! Work has been great and flexible with me so far - but I know i have lots to do so i need to get back to it!
Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers....I REALLY appreciate it!

Karen!

I'm so glad you're home. I'm thinking about you all the time and cursing the fact that I don't live in Houston anymore so I can come over and hang out with you. I love you!
