Table for Two + One Drooler

Well today is my mom's last day here....sad for me but I'm sure she's bored out of her mind and ready to get back home!! It's been so nice having her here and I'm very appreciative she stayed as long as she did. Hopefully next time we see each other we can actually have a conversation. As a thank you tonight we're going out to dinner to one of Brad and I's favorite spots. It should be an interesting outing for me. I still feel like my face it huge and it's uncomfortable to go out in public but I can't stay cooped up in the house for five weeks.

This afternoon my mom is going to make a "Gorgeous Green Soup" for me. I think I need to take a break from the Ensure and add some variety to my diet. I continue to watch Food Network obsessively which probably seems like a bad idea but it doesn't bother me or make me really hungry. I guess when you simplify your diet the way I have for the past week you begin to get used to it. And I've accepted I won't be enjoying "real" food for a couple months.

On the jaw front I had an episode last night when trying to take my medication. I choked and coughed which made my right ear drum feel like it exploded. I would say that was the most pain I felt this whole week. I was somewhat traumatized and am now scared to cough. I've been having a lot of pressure in my right ear before this but nothing like that so I'm not really sure what happened. I will check with the Dr. next week when I see him.  Other than that nothing new. Here's a picture of my beautiful mom, thanks mom for all your help!! Love you!
