And the Winner is....

Ordinary Girl!  I'll send you an e-mail so I can find out where to send your gift package.

Thanks to everyone who responded.  I got some great tips.  I love the ideas of organizing or cleaning out the house, reading a book (which sometime after grad school I started neglecting), knitting (my class starts soon), and a bunch of others.  I hope you've been following along so you have all the tips too. 

One of the biggest challenges after surgery is, "What the heck do I do with myself?"  For those of us that are single, it's probably an even bigger challenge, since we don't have kids and spouses to occupy our time (that said, it's also easier to eat whatever and whenever you need to post-op because you don't have to worry about what other people will think about it."

I'm sure it will be something I'll have to continue working on, which is really what this blog is all about. 

I hope you'll all stay for the ride.
