VSG on 01/12/12

Just got the final call from the hospital. I'm first up in the morning and have to be there at 5:30. I can hardly wait. No nerves just excitement. You may all have to remind me of that in a couple of days. Going to the library in a few to get some old movies and have my iPod loaded with relaxation music. Finishing up things around the house...cleaned the frig..DH kinda freaked when he looked. Oh well, right now it's going to be 'all about me'. Yesterday was my last day at work for about 5 weeks-YAY! My staff (8 men) were all so worried and there were lots of hugs and watery eyes. I think they may actually miss me. Anyway, I'll let you all know when I'm back home. Please keep the prayers coming and the critters swinging!

First, Hurray. it's finally time. And you will do fine, I'm sure. Here's to a textbook surgery and a boring recovery.

Second, it is good for all those men to suffer for a while so they appreicate you when you come back.

Third, get some good stuff to do because by the end of 5 weeks, you are going to be pretty bored but the first few weeks you will be happy to not have to go into work.

Awesome!! I'm super excited for you!! That's great that you get 5 weeks off! You won't have to be pressured into getting back to the real world as fast as some. Take it slow and enjoy your time off.

Prayers and (((HUGS)))

God is walking with me every step of the way. Because of HIM this is possible!!
