My carpal tunnel surgery was 3 days ago. It was a piece of cake aside from having to be there at 530 AM. Procedure around 730 and home by 9 AM. My hand was numb much longer than I anticipated but I have had no pain. I need to leave the dressing on until Saturday. I have good use of fingers. Carli and Brady seemed to know I was not quite normal as they were even more affectionate and attentive. Carli did not even get down to eat her breakfast which is highly unusual for her to pass up an opportunity to eat.
I feel bad that I am missing some very busy Habitat build days but as much as I wanted to delay the surgery until July, I am glad that I did not. It is really nice to be able to lye down to sleep again.
CMA Fest is starting in Nashville. Thus far, I have not intersected with it at all. That is about to change. Runaway June is performing Sunday afternoon and my aunt is driving from Iowa for a visit and wants to see them perform. I don’t think she really understands what the crowds will be like but I guess we will find out. It will likely be my first and last CMA fest assuming we survive. Planning ahead for the cruise did not work out so well so I am just going to wing it for this short expedition.
Wish us luck!!
