I can now say that I have a date too!
I went to see my surgeon today. He was fantastic. Unfortunately, because of spring break, I have to wait a month ~ until March 31st. But as I step back and take a moment, I know that this is the best plan. I am teacher and now I can get report cards finished, quarter testing done, make sure my junior field can finish his commitment, and then make plans for my time off from work. I now know that this is the best thing for me. And March 31st will be here before I know it.
I feel so excited!
