Lots of Prep Work

Hello everyone, sorry its been so long since

I've last blogged.

I've had alot on my mind these past two

weeks, longer actually

but more so

lately.

You see, I've been seeing a Specialist for over

three months now.

Its been frustrating, and overwhelming.

Driving back and forth

each an hour

and a half one way, sometimes

up to two hours.

Its been nice going down to the city

but I'd rather do that under other

circumstances, oh well.

My last visit was

right at the end of December.

That's when I found

out I'll be having surgery.

I know I've posted this before, but in case

you don't know,

I have endometriosis.

Not fun, has

made my life miserable since I was a teenager

but got worse in my 20's.

For over 15 years, I have tried everything and

anything out there to

help me cope with it, but now my body

has rejected

whatever can be done. So, it has come

down to that dreaded

word:

surgery!!

"well, you have exhausted every means

out there",

says the Doctor,

"the only other options are, ablation,(yeah right

    you're burning up insides, I don't 

think so) another

type of BC, (sick and tired of taking

those) or surgery"

"Lets do the surgery". I said. "I've had enough

 of this!!"

So January 28th is the big day for me.

I've never had surgery

so I'm scared,

anxious, nervous, losing a little sleep

over it, but it

needs to be done if I want any quality of

life. I don't know

what quality of life really is to be honest

with you.

I'm young to be having this surgery

but, this is the result.

So for the next several days I will

be cleaning house,

doing laundry, and making meals that

I will freeze so all DH needs

to do is put them

in the oven or heat them up in the microwave.

I will be layed up for 3

weeks, so the other day, I went in and signed

up for Netflix for 6 weeks.

So lots of movies!!

Movies, reading, crafting, but no lifting whatsoever!!

Six weeks of no lifting.

I'm ready, its

time

time to move on

from this misery. Eventhough I'm scared, I'm ready.

But I have to stay one

night at the hospitaland I was not happy

about that. Since the

surgery is taking place

two hours

from our home, they want me to stay just in case.

STINK!!!!

Although I won't have a nose like that,

thank goodness,

I'll be layed up for awhile. So stop by and

say hi

especially after January 28th.

I most likely won't be

blogging after

that for sometime, but I will be reading

yours.

Feel free to leave me a comment,

they will put a smile

on my face when I feel like I'm losing

my mind since

I won't be able to leave my house for

that long...oh boy,

that'll be interesting, poor hubby,

he'll have to tolerate me.

I'll post one more

time before my surgery.

Now I've got to get cooking, and freezing, and

cleaning.

Bye for now.
