So now I am six days away from surgery. I didn't write for a few days because you would have just heard wah-wah-wah with it being the 4th of July and yes, it's really hard being on such a restrictive diet during a holiday. We went to my brother John's on Sunday but we decided not to do anything on Monday. Glen is on call, and at least at my brother's he could run home if needed since it's so close. We got some great photos by the campfire (check them out on facebook) and played a song trivia game. Some people also played "Just Dance," Glen included which was pretty fun (also in the FB album). I will admit...oh no, I ate a couple microscopic pieces of cauliflower, just to get to CHEW, but I brought my broth, yogurt and boost with me too. :-)
Yesterday we returned the loaner and got our car back. They did a fantastic job with everything! I really love and highly recommend Progressive for auto insurance! Afterwards, we went to Lakeside and had dinner. I found a place in the food court with cabbage soup, so I had the broth and a diet coke, plus I brought a yogurt. It was great to walk around and the girls did some shopping. Julie still had birthday money she wanted to spend, plus we gave both the girls a little money for great report cards and being really helpful lately.
Today we are doing more organizing. These are all the things we have to do: Get some boxes and things around the house put away... go through all of our clothes to donate/throw away/put away for later, I am getting rid of all my winter stuff that currently fits me now... Make the picture boards for my nephew's grad party on Saturday... Do the veggie tray for the party... pack for the hospital/girls pack to go to Patti's on Sunday...Start packing for Oscoda since it'll be really hard after surgery.
This is all difficult because I am trying to take it easy and get better since I was sick last week, and I don't want it to interfere with my surgery. Somehow, it will all get done. :-)
