Tomorrow is the Day!

Did a bit of last minute shopping for some pudding and applesauce.  I know that sounds weird, but I like pudding and applesauce, and they are both relatively easy to swallow, so I got them!

I am waiting for the dryer to finish so I can pack my overnight bag with a few necessities and then heading to bed.  It is really funny.  I expected to be a bit nervous or even scared.  But right now I am only concerned that my kids are going to be hungry!  LOL  (and yes, I know they could all afford to loose a few pounds!)

I did give a short lesson to my 10 year old about how to load and turn on the dishwasher...I'm not so sure she understands...but at least I tried.  I did see hubby eye-ing the paper plates while we were at the store...

From the conversation hubby and youngest had tonight, I think they are planning on buying a case of Ra-Men.  I just hope they remember that I have to eat too!!!

Tomorrow morning, the plan is to get the kids off to school and then head on to the hospital.  That will give me a little over an hour to get there before my allotted time of 9:30.  With the surgery planned on starting at 11:00.  Both my hubby and daughter are being instructed to remember that they need to tell the doctors that I cannot have the Oxycodone....

I am expecting a smooth ride to the hospital and then a nice nap.  Even though I cannot have coffee in the morning!  (Mr D asked if he could have my coffee in the morning...when I said no, he said I might as well drink it then, if I'm not going to give it to him!)

I am not 100% sure what to expect after the surgery.  I am sure there will be some pain and discomfort, and that danged brace.  (yes I know that is considered a bad word in my house!)  From what I have read, I am sure I will spend the night in the hospital.  The earliest I expect to go home would be around noon on Tuesday.  If not then, I will probably go home Wednesday morning.  I will not be updating this until maybe Thursday, but I will try my best to remember how things went....


So, now to go pack my bags...sweet dreams!
