Hi Everyone!
I just started back to work at my part-time job. It really feels great to be getting back to my normal routine. Well, I told my co-workers a little story about when I came home from the hospital and they said it would be a cute story to tell here on the forum. I didn't tell it before because I didn't want anyone here thinking I was a bad parent.
You know how after surgery you really don't feel like eating and your appetite doesn't really come back for about a week or so. Well, about two weeks post op I was at home and my daughter comes home from preschool with a cupcake. My appetite was definately back with a vengeance. I just felt like I had to have that cupcake, but I didn't want to take it from my little girl. I asked her if I could have it and she said she was going to eat it later. A few minutes later I asked her again. She said no again. Then I said to her that if she let me have that cupcake, I would buy her a candy bar to replace it. She still said no. Then I said I would buy her one of those huge candy bars not the small ones. She still said no. Finally, I asked her one more time if I could have it and if she would give it to me I would buy her not just the big candy bar, but a toy too. I couldn't believe I was bribing my little girl for her cupcake. My mother was sitting there laughing at me. She couldn't believe I was going on so about that cupcake. I was bound and determined to obtain that cupcake. My daughter stood there for a moment contemplating my offer. She finally gave me the cupcake. After not having eaten much for so long, that cupcake tasted like the best darn cupcake I ever had in my life. My daughter made out pretty well too. She did get her big candy bar and a Spongebob Squarepants toy. I can't believe I actually bribed her with candy and a toy. That is definately not like me AT ALL!!! I guess post op hunger can do that to you!
LOL!!!!
I hope nobody thinks I am a too terrible.
Take Care!
