Heya Babe,
What an exhausting day! But very productive. I was on the rood just after 9:00, and stayed up there until almost 4:00. The goal was to get as much prep work done as possible before I seal it with lap seal. I had a pipedream that I might get it done today, but, of course, that was wishful thinking. Step One was to use a stiff putty knife to scrape off the chunkiest of the old seal, then Step Two was to use the flat razor scraper to get the rest of it off. I managed to get Step One done and about 2/3 of Step Two before I really ran out of gas. I took three ibuprofens because I knew I would be in serious pain if I didn't. My scraper blade is pretty dull, and I couldn't find any new ones, but DeDe stopped by and brought me some. We visited for a while, and she's offered to help me with everything once I have the surgery, which is great, because Jo is going to be gone the first weekend after the surgery, so she can't help. After she left, I had dinner and my usual evening, more than ready for bed! I'm hoping to finish off the scraping, and maybe even Step Three, scrubbing down with mineral spirits, but that's probably a bridge too far, since I have to leave by 12:30 for my 1:00 PT appointment, which hopefully will be my last until after the surgery. I was told that they would be sending Home Health to me for the first couple of weeks afterward, which surprises me, sure hope my insurance pays for that! That's all I have energy for. Love you, sweetie! Good night!
