A little closer.

May 27, 2009

Ok, so I am a little closer in the process.  I received a call yesterday from my surgeons office letting me know that they are scheduling my surgery for June 25, 2009.  My first thought was, "That is so far away!".  Then I realized that is only 4 weeks and 2 days away.  During that time I still have to go through my pre-op tests and my 6 hour nutrition class.  So now it does not feel so far away.  Not that I will back out of this surgery as I am more than ready.  My concern is my feeling about it.  I rarely do anything for my self.  I always make sure that my kids are taken care of first and then my husband and if there is anything left than I do for me.  So lets say I need new clothes, I will start out with 4 new outfits in my hand and by the time I reach the check-out I will have put all but maybe 1 back and sometimes I will put them all back.  I am trying to work really hard at changing this way of thinking.  What I have to keep telling myself is that if I am not happy with me then I will be no good for my kids or my husband.  So the sooner I get to my surgery date the better I will feel.
