* A watched garden never grows
* No matter how much I love knitting, even I can get tired of it after a week or two of nothing but knitting
* If a doctor says it takes 6 weeks to recover from surgery, he's probably not pulling your leg
* People who behave badly always have excuses for themselves. People who behave decently don't need them.
* After 4 1/2 weeks of forced inactivity, I'm even looking forward to vacuuming. I would never have dreamed that was possible.
* Even though I don't like radishes well enough to ever buy them in the grocery store, I am positively giddy when I can pick them in the garden
* Those who get addicted to pain killers didn't get the same ones I got.
* Having a hard time keeping up with all the good wishes & offers of help from friends & family is just about one of the best problems one could ever have.
* If you have nursed one of your cats back to health, your cat may choose to return the favor....or perhaps Theo was just retaliating for the kitty water therapy
* Not wallowing in self-pity is apparently a very attractive characteristic in a spouse--even when having to scold that spouse for not following doctor's orders
* Sometimes it's best to keep things in perspective. When I have gotten really cranky about not being able to do things, I remind myself that some people have been put in full body casts. I'd need heavy sedation to endure that.
* Homemade chocolate-peanut butter ice cream really DOES make me feel better
* My complete lack of understanding of the surgery recovery process is impossible to underestimate. I actually had invited friends over for dinner the very next day! Thankfully, they are smarter than me.
* Now that I'm getting my energy back, my friends are trembling in fear of what I might do after so many weeks of inactivity. Signing up for a triathlon & marathon occurring on the same day & following up by hosting a murder mystery party that same evening would not be completely impossible. Andy has taken away my credit cards until I'm "safe" again.
* Being married to a wonderful man makes everything better!
