AngieAngel 0 Posted November 15, 2008 I am getting excited, making sure I have things squared away at work. I am taking 5 days off and it runs right into Thanksgiving...so I won't have to go back until the 1st. :cool: I think my friends and family are more anxious than me, I have had surgery before so it doesn't scare me. I am just nervous that they won't get all the air out and I will have to deal with the pain from that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
