Hey Ladies!! I’ve missed you dearly and want to give you a quick update on my health. My surgery was a success and I’m recovering well. {{knock on wood}}
I had a herniated (ruptured) disc in my back, L5 S1, and therefore underwent Discectomy and Laminectomy surgery. The doctors found a bone spur that was causing the additional pain I was experiencing with my sciatic nerve running down my left leg.
Right now all is well, I can’t bend or twist which makes life a bit challenging. I’m either completely horizontal or completely vertical because it still hurts too much to sit. However, I’m so grateful to be on the road to recovery and will start physical therapy soon.
I want to thank you for your prayers, comments, and e-mails. They mean so much to me and keep me motivated to keep Tip Junkie going during this challenging time.
I hope that you’ve been inspired by some of my favorite bloggers the past 2 weeks. I’m so grateful for their friendship and just knew that they would bring fresh and fabulous tips that you would all enjoy. {{hugs to them}}
Please bear with me the next couple months as I continue to heal. Life has come to a complete halt for me and I have to constantly keep myself at a snails pace not to re-injure my body.
I have big plans for Tip Junkie and there will be new features with the Mom-preneur Shops as well as the blog layout. So stay tuned!
I’m looking forward to an amazing year full of new ideas and fun surprises. Thank you for being apart of it!
xoxo
