Today's my nine month surgiversary, so....

When you hit a surgiversary, what do you do?  Do you treat yourself to something?  Do you not acknowledge it at all? 

For my one year, I am getting glamour shots taken, or something along those lines.  It's time for new photos to put up!

Today, I'm celebrating with a stomach bug. 

Oh well.  Maybe it'll take care of the water weight I gained from Auntie Flo.  Heh.

For one year I'm having glamour shots done too.  I love this idea!
I guess that means I'll have to wear makeup, huh?

I went shopping without concerns whether the items I wanted were on sale or not!

Wow - I thought hard about this one, trying to remember what I'd done for myself for either of my surgiversaries, and it occurred to me that I "celebrate" them almost as one does the anniversary of a death...   as the date gets closer, and for days afterward, I think about it, but reflect on it within myself.  I wonder if, deep inside, I'm mourning the loss of the "old Jean", however happy I am to be the "new Jean".  Weird....   

My surgiversary is next month.  I don't know what I want to do for it, I know I want to celebrate somehow, someway.  I am seeing my surgeon on my actual 1 year surgiversary, but that's not really celebrating, especially when they take 10-12 vials of blood! LOL...  I'll have to think about this... maybe I can set up some quality time with my "friend" Gary, who knows, maybe by then we'll be officially dating?!  That would be a great way to celebrate!

I havent made up my mind yet, but thinking either a trip, a tattoo or a shopping spree.
