The house is peaceful this morning. Not that there's a party going on here every day, but Joe is a noisy guy sometimes and he always wants his way. Today he's subbing at the local middle school and I am home alone for the first time since surgery. Ahhhhhh, quiet.
Our latest squabbles have been over decisions about my treatment and the fact that he thinks I make mean remarks back at him when he critiques what I've already decided even if I haven't discussed it with him. I warn people that I am a cranky sick person. With Joe it's just a matter of whose opinion is more important, his or the cranky lady who's taking between 6 and 12 percocet a day for pain?
So it's nice to have a day of quiet -- Just me and the tv and the computer with the blinds open to let in the sun. I may get a phone call from the physical therapist to start today and that's the most excitement I need.
