Day 39 Post Cystectomy

It's a trifecta!  3 days in a row of feeling good!  I think I got the best night's sleep yet - woke up once when my husband had to get up and use the bathroom (he he he - that felt SO good to not have to join him!) but went right back to sleep!  Woke up around 8am - not bad at all!  I watched our church's 8:45am service online - it was so good.  Then I got up and did some things around the house, got ready, and then Tim and I left around noon to go meet with 3 other couples we have been meeting with once a month to provide care for each other.  It started out being a 3 hour meeting, but today was 4 1/2, and I was literally toast when we left there!  I couldn't wait to get home to take a nap, but we weren't going to get home until 5:45pm and we had a couple coming over at 6pm!  Yikes!  I told Tim was I was going to put some fan white noise on my phone, put in my earbuds, and sleep until I woke up - he would need to entertain until then (no problem for my extrovert husband!).  I ended up sleeping about 20 minutes and woke up feeling good, so I went ahead and got up and grabbed some of the dinner our friends brought - home made lasagna - I seriously think I dreamt of lasagna - it was SO good!  We had a nice visit, and they didn't stay long, so after they left Tim and I started packing.  He went to bed at around 10pm, which is when I wanted to, but I had restless leg, so got a few more things done, got in bed and started reading.  It was getting close to 11 and sleep was nowhere in sight, so I made some honey vanilla camomile tea, downed that, took some ibuprofen (no real reason - when I was having pain over the past few weeks there were a couple of times I took ibuprofen and laid down and woke up feeling amazing - I think I thought it might help my restless leg settle down) and read some more.  Finally about 11:30ish I think I turned out the light and was able to go to sleep.  So happy for another day of feeling good!!
