A Post...can you believe it?

Ahhhhh, feeling much better. The "make ya feel better" meds have kicked in and I'm wearing a pain patch to help with the post surgery/detox headaches. And lastly, I have a wonderful RX that makes me sleep like a baby. It doesn't sound like it, but yes, I'm still doing my detox and taking some holistic supplements. Eventually, I will be off the "hard" stuff, but I had to pick my battles and not try to concur them all at once, because it was driving me and everyone around me crazy.

I know I'm feeling better when the retail therapy bug hits me. I've been shopping on-line for two days.......Halloween costumes, kids fall clothes, bedding etc.

I have a lot of hard speech therapy ahead of me, but my spirits are up and I'm functioning again....hallelujah!

Here are some Tropical Storm Fay pictures and a little visitor we had at the back steps for a few days.
