Counting down the days till surgery "diary"

innertube · March 2, 2008

Ok, I only :thumbs_up:5 days till surgery and I am so excited I feel like a kid. I know if I am feeling this way, so is everyone else who is waiting "impatiently" I can't concentrate on anything else.

I shared this story with someone else, at first I was embarrassed to share with others, but I think some of you could appreciate this one.

Ok! I found out my surgery date, so I did what I call the "yippie surgery dance" in the near birthday suite., and my (8) year old daughter said" (Mom your legs are clapping) :lol:and for a moment I was mordified, "out of the mouths of babes" I told her well Ms. Thing not for long and I did the "yippy surgery dance" again. Glad there wasnt a video camera around.

I am tired of my "legs clapping" :crying:even on there own, so I am ready for this new change in my life. :laugh:

Are any of you counting down the days like me.

Congrats, Good luck, make sure you come back let me know how you are doing.

I think I have OCD trying to prepare for this, single mom, and all.

I got a list for the babysitter, dogsitter, housesitter, and I already took care of my grocery list for the next few weeks. In addition, my brain is only on the surgery.

I come this board to see what everyone is talking about, even though I know I have things to do ya know?
