Wow, just 11 more sleeps....

holy shit i'm under 2wks until my surgery and actually feel like it's closer to 1 week away versus 2 lol....

i just had a minor breakdown with tears and everything with my MALE boss lol...seriously...thank god we have worked together for 12yrs or i'm sure he would have fired me by now....

so many worries shuffling through my head:
  1. worried about nick and school and behavior issues...
  2. worried about my pre-op appt tomorrow knowing my surgery is just 11 days away...
  3. worried about getting billings done and out for clients to get money into us before i go out so i can pay as many people as i can so i dont have to worry about cutting checks from home...
  4. worried about the damn surgery and not being able to do everything i will need/want to while i'm recovering...
yup, i'm one big ball of emotion this afternoon and my very kind and considerate MALE boss got the brunt of it, lucky him :)

all i can do now is just take deep breaths, tackle each issue as it comes and put off as many worries as i can until they can be taken care of....i guess this mental prep is going to be the biggest preparation i have to do before the surgery....

OMG only 2 more wks until my surgery....

wow, it's really starting to settle in that i have just 14 more days until i go to bed and wake up and head to the surgical center for my surgery...just need to get "over" caught up at work next week and then i wont feel so much stress the actual week of my surgery....fortunately i will be able to work remotely from home a bit once i'm feeling up to it.....anyway, getting my lists together of things that need to be done before surgery and who's doing what while i'm recovering....getting the kids situated is my biggest challenge but luckily i have family and friends and my hubby to help figure it all out so it all goes smoothly and i can remain "stress free" hahahaha, yeah right...

Only 17 more sleeps....

holy crap, only 17 more days until my surgery....
did a big BJ's shop yesterday and have the following in the freezer so far:
4 meatloaves
4 marinated stks
2 pks of marinated pork chops
2 dry rub marinated pork loin roasts
1 marinated chuck roast for the crockpot (french dip sandwiches)

tonight i have to do up 30 b/s chix breasts into 5 different recipes, including:
maui chix
chix cordon blue
carribean chix
cheddar/cracker chix
ranch chix parm

this will get my freezer all set up thru october and mike will only have to shop for the essentials like fresh fruit & veggies, dairy and bread while i'm recovering....

Other TO DOS:
i called around about an electric lift recliner to rent to sleep in downstairs after the surgery and it's only $125/month with delivery and pickup....can't beat that so i'm setting up the rental for delivery on 9/20...
i'm going to schedule cleaners to come either a few days before my surgery or tuesday following my surgery while i'm home...
i'm also going to schedule the carpet cleaner to do upstairs and terminex to come for their inspection as well as "spot" treat a baseboard in our room that keeps having droppings in front of it....

i'm going to be home anyway, so why not get all this shit done then right???? lol, not like i have to lift a finger or anything to get this stuff done :)

wow, just 17 more sleeps....
