I’ve been laying low since I got home from hospi

I’ve been laying low since I got home from hospital on Friday. One of the biggest issues with major surgery such as a knee replacement is making sure the pain medication plan is sound. Nearly everyone has to get their meds ‘tweaked’ for various reasons. I was no exception, needing to speak to my GP on Saturday to get my meds increased so I could sleep at night. I gotta tell you, the pain is worse than childbirth 😭 how others get both their knees done at the same time is beyond me.

Wearing a new season @witcheryfashion mini dress in green - no one does emerald green quite like Witchery does 💚thanks @blushandbutterscotch for convincing me it wasn’t too short 😂

Gosh what a difference 5 days makes! I started the week with a wonky knee and ended it with a titanium one!
.
I’m heading home today after spending 5 days in hospital. It’s the first time I’ve left hospital with an excel spreadsheet of medications and strict instructions 🤣 and a 4 page sheet of exercises from the physiotherapist. Ah 2020 I really didn’t see any of this coming at the beginning of the year 😬
.
But Onwards and upwards. I’m very grateful for our good healthcare! Happy Black Friday everyone!

Currently packing for my hospital stay. Honestly I

Currently packing for my hospital stay. Honestly I really no idea what I should take to wear as I’ve never had a knee replacement before or had hospital rehab for that matter 🤔
.
So anyway, yesterday I had to relocate my dress rack to the foot of my bed so I can access clothing on crutches more easily when I get home. As I stand before my dress rack now I’m reminded of two things.
.
1. Two years ago I only owned one dress. I didn’t have the confidence to wear them courtesy of the toxic mother I grew up with. Two years ago I told that little girl inside it was ok, I am enough and I am worthy of beautiful dresses.
2. I found my dress tribe here on Instagram and slowly I built up a dress collection. I’m making up for lost time and so thankful for labels like @stylingyouthelabel who design for real women like me. Not for models. But for real actual people. I wear the Gaby dress with pride and you bet your sweet bippy she’s coming to hospital with me 😀
.
I’m aiming to be the best dressed chick there with a bionic knee lol 😂

Celebrating my first day of unemployment and last

Celebrating my first day of unemployment and last days of mobility before my surgery on total knee replacement surgery on Monday.
.
I have a list of things to do that is a mile long plus Christmas shopping 🙄 all with a knee that is on its last legs - literally.
.
I’ve lived with this wonky knee for as long as I can remember, even managed to obtain a black belt in karate with it (Goju Kai). But it’s time to bite the bullet and get it done.
.
Wearing current season @witcheryfashion . Love this dress so much I have it in 2 different colours!
