penpal needed- having RNY in my 20's

I am in my late 20's and live in the midwest.  I really need someone who know's the stress of having kids and a full time job.  I am not telling anyone (except for my husband of course!) about what type of surgery I am having, so I would love someone to chat with about the day to day worries of the approaching date.  I am having surgery Sept. 21, the day after my oldest daughters birthday which has me feeling really guilty.  I know the surgery will give me the energy so that I can give my kids the attention they need, but I still feel bad about the birthday.  I work in a bank, so I listen to people tell me what's on their mind all day (sometimes I feel like a bartender)!  I really need to vent!  My family is very healthy, my husband is a healthy weight (as was I when we got married) so he doesn't understand the stress of being tired all the time, but he's supportive.  Someone help!
