Final Countdown

May 15, 2010

So surgery is almost here and I think I have everything in order. I've done all my "liquid diet" shopping, have made sure all the bills are paid and the house is in order, and have provided for my dog care and self support. I also put together a living will and will which I shouldn't need but which are good things for anyone to have who is going under anesthesia. I think it freaked my mom out a bit (she is here to support me for the surgery), but I'm a very matter-of-fact person so knew it had to be taken care of. I'm still just mostly anxious/excited and have very little fear because I'm so prepared. Plus the liquid diet - although it sux - really isn't as bad as it could be. I think that's because I'm so mentally/emotionally prepared and have the end goal in mind. It wasn't as hard to say goodbye to food as I thought it would be, and I'm really not craving anything bad. I just want a piece of turkey or a nice big salad with hard-boiled eggs! I guess solid protein is something to look forward to in another month! I've gottan run off to a Firearm Safety Class of all things - so better pack my protein and tomato juice! Then it's off to a bday party where I get to resist the temptation of BBQ & Cake! LOL!
