Hey all! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. We had a great weekend. We went to North Carolina with some friends Saturday to see a gospel bluegrass band, the drive was beautiful and we had a lot of fun. Yesterday was our Pastor Appreciation Day, our theme was "Old Timers" day. All of the teens dressed in old time floral skirts with matching bonnets, all the men and boys wore over alls with white t-shirts. There was lots of food, music and games.
I am usually off on Monday but this week I get a different day off because I am working in the Women's Center today. This will be my first day alone up there and I am ready to do it, the rest of the week I will be working in the file room.
My doctors office called me back Friday and I have a surgery date, November 20 at 1:00pm. That gives me four weeks to get things done around the house and to teach my kids and husband how to do laundry and all the little extra things that I do. I am not trying to sound like my family are idiots, their not, I am just very picky about the way my laundry is done and I realize that I will just have to not be so picky while I am recovering from surgery but at the same time they need to know how to at least fold clothes and keep the wrinkles out.
It has already been decided that my kids will accompany Mr. B and I to the hospital on Nov. 20 when I have my surgery because they are all worried about it now so I don't want them sitting in class all day that day worrying. I should only be in the hospital for one to two days if everything goes the way we are hoping they do.
I was talking to my new boss on the phone telling her the exact date of surgery Friday and she told me that I would have to give her and my other boss directions to my house so that they can cook a couple of meals and bring over for my family while I am recovering, I thought that was so sweet of her, I have the best bosses!
Right now my only worries about the surgery are that I am dreading the first couple of weeks after. My doctor said that the first couple of weeks are very important and I am not to so much as make my bed, lie around is all I will be able to do for fourteen long days, looking at it right now makes it look like a hard thing to do but I am sure once the surgery is done I will be thinking that it sounds perfect. In a way I kind of wish that surgery wasn't four weeks away because of all the anxiety but in another way I am glad because it gives me time to get things done so that I won't worry during recovery.
Thank all of you so much for your kind comments!
I have to go now or I will be late for work, y'all have a great day!

glad you've got your date and yes, i think you really will be ready to sit and do nothing whern you come home from the hospital. ;)
Hey, Heather
Sorry to hear about your medical problems! Hope eveything goes good for you!!! I will be thinking of you on that day, and I'll say a prayer for a speedy recovery.
love ya, Susie your cuz.
I wish you the best of luck with your hysterectomy. I'm certain it will go fine and the results will be great.
BTW, I don't care how out of commission you are during your recovery; we expect you to keep blogging!
You will for sure be in my prayers my young friend (makes me sound older and distinguished huh?.....just old maybe) I am sure you will be in great hands and make a speedy recovery. After surgery and recovery prayers will be with the family.....cause I have a feeling THEY might need the prayers more (haha just kidding)
I will need directions to your house so I can deliver a home made PBJ sandwich ......I can try for grilled cheese but thats at the outer edge of my culinary abilities.

I hope everything goes ok Sweetie. Good vibes from SoCal … XO … Keep us posted.
I’m doing ok. My home is still standing and I did not get evacuated ... yet! There are still some concerns but things are calming down. There is fire to the north of me, to the east of me, and moving up from the south. With the weather improved and more aircraft here, I should be ok.
I hope the surgery goes okay. Maybe once you get your family trained on how to do laundry and some of the other stuff you do, maybe they can do it more often when you are recovered from your surgery.
I remember after my C-section, Hubby did the grocery shopping and did small stuff around the house for me. You just need that recovery time.
Sounds like you do have wonderful bosses. :)
Well you dont need those organs to be our bloggy pal, you have your wonderful kids, and so....
Wishing you the best, sorry I havent been around...Im a bit flaky in the blog dept these days...
Keep us posted.
