Well, it's Saturday morning. My "guts" pretty much woke up yesterday. I've been pretty much constantly passing gas ever since. I'm moving to a liquid diet today, which is good, the ice chips are getting old. They came in at 4 AM and asked if I'd like the Foley out, who am I to say no? Seriously, it's much easier to walk. At about 5, I realized I was so antsy in the bed I got up and did several laps of this floor of the hospital. I'm sitting in a chair right now watching old movies on TCM. If all stays well, I'm on track to be home by Monday or Tuesday.
