Comes June

June, the first of the 3 months considered summer in the north of east.

I'm now fully 24 days post surgery. I've been back to work since 19 May. The cast and stents were taken off and out 17 days ago. And today is the first day I've felt close to normal.

I'm uncertain why, but my spatial sense was thrown off by surgery, by medication, by anaesthesia.  Perhaps it was the saline solution that had to be regularly squirted up each nostril until it swished and drained out either the other or out my mouth. Lovely. ;-)

I finally put an end to that yesterday, upon leaving work (where I would ritually do this in the restroom, several times each workday.) And today... much better.

Oh, it is still tender to much of a touch, but things are looking up. The results are great, and the worst is over. Weather permitting, I'll be able to tackle the lawn tomorrow, giving it a weekly buzz cut. Monday I'll resume walking on my lunch hour. And I'm well into the new diet, it has become routine.
