I have just been settling in to being back home. Thursday night, when Sarah's m0m, Ellen, picked us up at the airport, she also took me to get some groceries. I have unpacked and been able to feel settled in.
On Friday morning, I took a cab to the hospital to have my labs drawn--nice and stable results--then took the bus home, pausing downtown to just enjoy being out and feeling good again. Then my good friend Peggy brought the mail she had collected for me and I went through sorting and organizing.
It just feels so good to be up and active--more active than before the transplant--and not always tired. Who knew how good your kidneys make you feel?
Today I plan to walk down to the yarn store and Starbuck's before going out to dinner with Sarah and Katie. Tomorrow they are going to Bellingham to sing in a concert with the Seattle Women's Chorus but I will stay home and plan to go to rehearsal on Tuesday.
It is so amazing how much better I feel and how much I am looking forward to taking down the Christmas decorations and getting back to normal.
Please have a good weekend and enjoy life, such a precious gift!
