I'm still sleeping pretty well - loving that I don't have to get up multiple times in the middle of the night to pee!  I'm still always waking up, but I typically don't get up.  This morning I had no issues with unhooking the night bag, finally!  But I did still have blood in my urine for the first half of the day and my left kidney was killing me.  No!!!  Ain't nobody got time for this!  I took some ibuprofen at some point and that seemed to help.  We had a very leisurely morning - having a late breakfast of eggs and ham (not green eggs) and then the 6 of us sitting down to open gifts together.  It was really nice, but I'm just so bummed I'm back to not feeling well.  I know Sunday and Monday I remember thinking that it felt like I expected to feel as I recovered.  I almost felt normal again, and then yesterday and today I feel knocked down again!  Ugh!  But at least I had a very nice day with my family.  I took a nap right after lunch, and then Tim and I went to visit our best friends, the Perrella's, and take them some Christmas cookies I made last night.  We were there for about an hour, and then came home where I took another nap.  Tim made chicken and potatoes in the Instant Pot I got him - he was SO happy to get that!  So we ate that for dinner and then the kids joined us to watch one of our family's favorite movies - Lion King 1 1/2!  So funny!  After that my daughter and I watched a Sue Thomas episode.  Then it was putz around a bit, get ready for bed, and here I am.  I guess I need to call my doctor's office tomorrow about the pain and blood, plus I need to ask them about giving me a prescription so I can order more bags.  I'm not looking forward to contacting them only to have them not call me back, but I guess I don't have much of a choice.  Until tomorrow!
