Well it's finally happening! Tomorrow is the big day. I am so excited. It's the feeling one has when they get ready for the first day of school, their wedding, giving birth.... It is life changing event.
I decided to take this last day before the surgery to relax, prep and enjoy the family. I went to my appointment last week at the hospital. I asked the nurse if a picture can be taken of Jabba. I think I totally grossed her out. She looked at me strange and said I would need to ask the doctor.... yeah I creeped her out. lol... I see it as a way to finally say goodbye to that gross thing.
Well, wish me luck guys! I'll be on my blog when I come back home on Thursday, pain and all.... :)

8 Days and counting........
Okay..... Now the anxiety FINALLY kicked in! My stomach is in knots both with excitement and worry. A lot of "what ifs" are popping all over the place. I shouldn't think this way at this stage of the game but I can't believe it's really going to happen. Now all of the hard work will begin.
I also have a bad sleeping arrangement. I know I won't be able to walk a long flight of steps when I come home so I might be stuck sleeping d
ownstairs - that's if I can sleep. I know that I will be screaming those infamous "7 Dirty Words" and then some more in Spanish! Yeah, bilingual cursing will be happening at my house from the time I'm home until the drainage bags come off. The line is like 2 feet or so all wrapped inside my belly with disgusting fluid pumping out for over a week or so. 2 of them. Sucks!
And yes, intimacy is out of the question. I thought that it would be because of the drainage or popping a stitch but noooooo.... it's to prevent bleeding due to increased blood flow. So I guess what they're really trying to say is maybe you can find a way to do it, but don't get excited and don't enjoy it.... LOL!!!! Well I wouldn't be surprised if during my recuperation my monthly friend comes to visit.... Yeah, nice surprise, NOT. This house is not going to like me very much.
Well when the doubts kick in I just go to my upstairs bathroom, look at the mirror and BAM! Jabba i
s just staring at me, smiling at me, mocking me, and thinks it's not going anywhere. But I will have the last laugh. Jabba is finished.... HAHA!!!!
Okay, I'm getting a little nutty with my writing but hey it's fun.... I will be ready for my Superwoman costume for Halloween. Yes, I felt it was the appropriate costume for me. I'm feeling like Superwoman!
