These past few days have been weird since I haven’t been able to lift anything heavier than a few pounds.  On Tuesday, I thought I’d try picking Kumquat up again and it felt so good to hold her again.  I had avoided even holding her on my lap too since the soreness in my abdomen hadn’t yet subsided.  But on Tuesday, it was feeling a little better and holding Kumquat felt so nice and she couldn’t get enough too.  So, I’ve been holding her on my lap more often now and even picking her up now for quick tasks such as putting her back in bed or helping her down from the couch.

By the way, I passed my written DMV test this morning.  Woot!  Here’s to 5 more years of driving!
