Well it’s the night before surgery…I’m sitting at the computer in my towel…why I have no idea. Probably because I’m way too exhausted to do anything otherwise. This has been one trying day for sure. Started out with waking up with no sleep. As sleepy as I was last night, when I finally hit the bed to go to sleep my mind was racing. It just would not calm down. Eventually I fell asleep but it wasn’t a sound sleep at all. I was hot most of the night but woke up at 5:30 drenched in sweat (something I’m accustomed to due to this arm issue). So needless to say, I was a very cranky camper this morning and throughout the day. It was so dead all day at work until the last hour. I got the call from the nurse that I am to report at Surgery Admissions at 5:15am….hold up, marinate, yes that’s what I said! lol I was so shocked! Like what am I supposed to do with the kids? I was thinking like 7 or 8am something like that. I’ve already gone thru all of the stress to figure something out…it ended up that my mom got the kids tonight and will be keeping them for the next few days. Bless her!
So how do I feel? Well after my mom prayed with me, I don’t feel anxious. I just feel tired and worn out and drained. I feel depleted. I’ve had a headache all day, and just had to suffer thru it because I can’t take anything. I’ll be honest with you…I’ve been a bit bummed that I can’t hit up a few sales this weekend. But I’ve already gotten over that. As long as I get my Sunday papers for my coupons, everything else will take care of itself. I’m just trying to stay calm and not allow anything to stress me…key word here is trying because I’ve been stressed all day…especially after finding out the time to arrive and not yet knowing how that was gonna work out. Well, I guess I should go ahead and head to the bed now…my 4:20am or so wake up call will be here before I know it…send up a prayer for me 🙂
