"I don't know, my schedule was always flexible to deal with when I had to be in bed for, I don't know, and flares and PMS, and ovulation, whatever was ailing me that day. But now there's this opportunity of stuff, of travel, of things that I wasn't doing before, not just because of a pandemic. I mean, now there's actually the availability for me to travel again." — Emily, 12 Days Since Uterus Eviction Day

In This Episode:

• My incision pain's gone down and I'm just taking ibuprofen for that, yay!

• I got my walking treadmill, and I'm so excited for it!

• I'm starting to get restless being in recovery with everyone also in the house with me. I'm looking forward to some alone time driving as soon as I'm cleared for a nice long drive.

• Today would have been Day 6 of my period, but thank goodness that's no longer something to worry about.

• The Slay the Spire Twitch Streamer my husband watches, Jorbs: https://www.twitch.tv/jorbs

• I'm already feeling the relief from the hysterectomy as I comfortably sat on a barstool for dinner! I didn't realize how my tolerance for bar stools had gone down so much just from my painful uterus!

• I'm already considering going to conferences again, now that I'm not held hostage by my body's pain schedule!
