I arrived back home on 31 May, and proceeded to jump straight back to work, since my husband had to go help his mother the first weekend of June. So things got back to a frenetic normal tout-damn-suite. The only break I've really had was playing Minecraft all day for my birthday while my hubs slept. And I'm about to have another break this coming Thursday (22 June), because I have total knee replacement surgery, and WHOO happy pills!

This summer is going to be recovery from this surgery, and taking steps toward getting the panniculectomy (tummy tuck) for my bariatric surgery. Insurance is going to HATE me, because right after THAT I'll be getting a third surgery - total knee replacement on the other knee! Nothing like go big or go home, eh?

When I got home from my trip to Iceland and England, it was lovely to come home to happy mail from my RAoC peeps! Thank you so much. Instagram post here: https://www.instagram.com/p/Ctm-y6fOW2k/
