In 24 hours I will be at the hospital getting prepped for my surgery. Surgery starts at 8:30 and will last 5-6 hours. Really? 5-6 hours seems like a long time to me! But I will be sleeping so I don't care! Last night I started to worry and think of everything that could go wrong again.... and I just had to STOP myself and focus on the positives. I am most nervous about the actually surgery part... being put under general anesthesia... that scares me... and then waking up right after... so I will be really glad when all that is DONE and I am home recovering!
Today I have a few last minute things that need to get done... write up the kids schedule for the babysitter... pack my hospital bag... get some food prepared and put in the fridge for the baby... Last night the husband took my 8 year old son and bought him a new game for his DS. He will be hanging out inside with me for the next few days and so this way he has something fun to do in between helping me out. He also bought a new game for our Wiii- "Family game night" so I have something to do when I am recovering.
I am also getting my hair cut today and a pedicure- no nail polish, I need to take all of it off before surgery, so I will get clear polish on my nails. I took the kids to the library so I have books to read... everything is pretty much ready. I know today will go by fast and then I will be really nervous tonight... I wonder if I will be able to sleep.
