Mom report 
So, I talked to Mom after her surgery. She came through fine. She was woozy when I talked to her, but anyone might be after having Kentucky Fried dinner. I can't believe she ate Kentucky Fried dinner, as the last time she had this surgery, she was seriously sick for the first 8 hours or so that she was home (I know, cuz I took care of her), and KFd was not even an option. But I am so glad that she was just feeling wore out, and not awful.
Me, I'm wore out too. Greg was kind to me, and assigned some stretches to do, and reminded me that stretching was the most important of the exercises. Oh yeah, stretches are what I leave til last and generally don't do. Guess I need to change that.
Pilates was difficult. Was it from a rough pilates class yesterday or yet more reminents of last week? Dunno. I just know that I was finding everything super hard. And I have allegro tomorrow.

so glad things went well for your mom. It's hard to be far away during times like that. About stretching: I'm discovering how much I need them. I think I could have avoided this injury had I been warming up properly. Lesson learned.

Glad Mom came through ok, and double yuck on KFC. I guess if you are well enough to stomach that, you've gotta be pretty tough. She's a trooper!

Your mom's my kind of woman. KFC after surgery? Good for her! My mom did something similar after her chemo procedure. The first thing she wanted to do was eat. But she didn't get KFC, more like turkey and mashed potatoes. It certainly made me feel better to see her chowing down, though.
Glad your mom is doing well. And you hang in there, too. All those tough workouts and still going strong!
