hysterectomy latest. week 8 plus

so... my scar is shrinking with the use of Bio-Oil.  Love IT!  I put it on first thing in the morning and just before I go to sleep.

It's still pretty bright red - but time.   and it is still high, higher than I'd like.  but... I'll get used to it.  I'm not going to let it stop me from wearing my low rise pants, or belts or bikinis - they mostly hit right on the scar anyway.  If it doesn't disappear I'll just have to get an awesome tattoo.  But I'm going to at least give it a year.

the jelly belly swelling over it is starting to recede.  If I could just get off my @$$ and exercise more... I'm sure that would disappear.  Which reminds me... Still feeling it with exercise, but nothing I can't work through.  It just feels like a comfortable stretch more than anything. 

Sex is awesome although... I admit to being a tiny bit afraid of seeing more blood.  So we are being conservative.  No swinging from the chandeliers or anything like that.  Maybe for valentines day....

Do you want me to post a photo?  or have you guys had enough of me exposing myself on the internet.

Buddhist prayer

I found this in the newspaper classifieds today... I'm not sure that it is a buddhist prayer  - some things don't exactly ring true for what I know about Buddhism but... it sounded like a right living philosophy so I decided I wanted to keep it.

here it is.

Let all things be healthy.
Let all things be peaceful.
Be sure to count your blessings at least once a day.

Forgive those who have hurt you, and those who have offended you. 
But forgive yourself for what you have done and let go of what you have failed to do.

That which is done, there is no need to speak of.
That which is past, there is no need to blame. 

Have self control, self knowledge, self respect. the courage to dream and be tranquil.
And the light of God's intelligence will shine.

Strive to make the spot where you stand beautiful, then beauty and harmony will follow you in all your ways and through all your days.- Amen.
