Selective recuoeration

It's been almost two weeks now since I had my hip replacement surgery and I'm healing very well. I still use a walker some and my cane some, but more and more often I find myself walking around my apartment with no help at all.  However, I've noticed a strange phenomenon in my recovery process.  I seem to be able to find the energy I need to do the things I want to do and yet totally lack the ability to do anything unpleasant.  For example this past weekend I spent four hours in the library on Saturday, mostly sitting I admit, and about four hours at a graduation party on Sunday, again mostly sitting.  However today, when I had no appointments or committments, I convinced myself that I should spend the day pretty much just lying around, reading a good book and playing computer games.  I was sure I absolutely am not strong enough yet to vacuum the livingroom.  I love this selective recuperation.  Don't tell.
