Okay - I've gotten the nightmares to simmer down and I've just accepted the fact that having the surgery in the morning is the right thing to do. I'm just grumpy about it. I haven't bought the first Christmas gift (so if you're on my list, I'M SORRY, my health is my gift to you)... :) I've bought 2 new pair of house shoes and 3 pajama sets preparing for the hospital stay and what I expect will be daily visitors to our cozy little abode.
I've seriously gained a ridiculous amount of weight since the wedding. I'd tell you what the poundage is, but I haven't reached that level of acceptance with this yet. I guess the weight gain is a combination of no longer being super-duper-low-carb-500-calories-a-day and my thyroid woes. Whatever it is, I hope I can get it straightened out ASAP. I have one pair of jeans that don't make me feel like a loaf of bread wrapped with thin twine and even then, it ain't pretty.
In the week following my c-word news, I was blessed to receive some "happies" from some very special people in my life. See what's made me smile in the last week:
Shirt from the Kelsey Wynne Foundation, via Sharon (Holcomb) McCrary, she was one of my Big Sisters in Jesters at MUW |
Kelsey's Story, check out her website |
Poinsettia and wreath |
Giant poinsettia from Mrs. Dana Corso, sweet friend of the family |
Wreath from my best frans: Jean, Laura, Meg, Chelsey, Anne Franklin |
Because of the wise advice of my uncle telling me that to cure cancer I needed to start "SLUGGING" lemon juice my twin sister Erinn got me some! :) |
