A reset, to how I felt before tinkering with the bandage. A bite to eat, coffee, water, to restart the day... into midafternoon. Things still ache. And most of what hurt before. But all at a low rumble, and often all can be ignored. Just noticed when something gets bumped, jostled, or flares up a bit.
A shower, sometime later? I hope so. But I'm not in a hurry. Coffee, through the next hour or two.
