I just finished my first exhausting week back at work after having surgery. I had my gallbladder removed on July 28th 2008 . It took me about a week and a half to recover and I am still not at 100% yet. The pain meds are very effective on pain, they are also quite effective at bricking you up (constipation). I am about to take some ex-lax and hopefully have a movement in the morning. Sometimes work makes me hate working with the public, especially the drunks that come in on the weekends. I am so glad I am off on Sundays. I don't think I could take working Saturday and Sunday back to back. I also hate working with a certain person who can't keep his mouth shut and do his job effectively to save his life. Well, I am currently watching Cooking With Paula Dean on the Food Network. I have really gotten into the food network lately for some reason.
