Previous Message Had my gallbladder removed this morning. Surgeon did it laproscopically, so in and out same day. Relaxing at home now. Ultrasound found gallbladder was full of stones. Surgeon said it was a good thing we did it now, because it was solid. Cheers. Warmup for later, it seems. Probably going to need a hernia repair. If it isn't this, then it's that, and if it isn't that, it's the other thing. Ah, well. Muck the Ducks!

Howdy, Rock! Glad that went smoothly, and hope everything continues well with you.*

This week, I'm lamenting that I thought I tore my rotator cuff in November but it is actually fine. No idea why it has hurt for 3+ months. Previous Message Had my gallbladder removed this morning.
