3 Months Post Surgery Today

I haven't been feeling so great, but finally got around to taking some pics.
Please note I just finished running around at gymnastics with my daughter and it was a VERY long day. I still have some bruising under my eyes and my skin broke out something awful!

Slacker

That's me! But here is a gem from life After jaw surgery.
We are getting ready for bed in front of the bathroom mirror.

Husband: what is on your lip?
Me: (looks). Hmmmm
Husband: it looks like dried blood. You must have bitten it and not realized it.
Me: I guess so! I think I walked around most of the day like that and no one told me. Maybe they didn't notice?
