The Beige Period.
I can't believe how long it's been since I wrote anything here, but in my defense, my life hasn't slowed down one bit since August 17th. I had my surgery, and obviously, it went okay. Recovery has been more than a challenge and I still have a long road ahead of me.I can't believe that I'm nearly eight weeks post-op; sometimes it feels like the shortest eight weeks, and at other times it feels like the longest. I still struggle with a lot of the symptoms that I had before my surgery, but I've been told that's normal and like all things, it "takes time". I'm also struggling with a lot of other things, mentally. I have this new scar that is really present when my hair is up, I felt like I lost a lot of my independence for a while (which I'm slowly gaining back), and a whole mess of other things I'm still trying to work out. I'm almost embarrassed to admit that I haven't created nearly as much as I'd like to. Besides recove
