anxious

I am getting so anxious for my surgery and it is not until May 9th, I do not want to wait that long! It seems like forever! How do I keep my mind from wandering. Everyone else says that my appt is soon, but it doesn't feel that way to me. I just can't stop thinking about it.

Hang in there! It will be here faster than you know. Maybe plant a rock garden or a window box? It's beautiful down your way already and some digging might do some time killing. I decided to plant a flower for every pound I wanted to lose... I think I bought stock in Lowe's. Maybe you should try one for every 20 or so... If you want to keep some yard Let's just say I don't have to mow my bank now! I should have done every 20 so I would have some grass left! I have to admit, it's kind of nice only to have to drag out the weedeater!

Thank you for your support. That is a great idea about the rock garden!!

Please hang in there! Patience is the key right now. I always bear in mind that all good things come in God's perfect timing. Right now I am 4 days post op and I feel better than I have in 10 years. Maybe you should start a project, sew a quilt or paint a room. I will pray that this time will go by quickly for you dear. Feel free to vent or email me whenever you need to. Blessings, Diane

Thanks for your advice. How are you doing? I hope okay. I am not great at sewing though, so I think a quilt would be out. Haha! Are you located in NC? If so are you in Charlotte?

Hi Catherine, I live in Haw River, NC. I am about 20 miles west of UNC Chapel Hill where I had my surgery. I personally love to sew so I am starting a "new life" quilt next week! Blessings, Diane
