12 days till surgery............. and....HAPPYNESS


Today was a great day...

I babysat my best friends little girl who is 5 1/2 years old...and she is such a doll, and a good little girl (yes she does have her bad days) lol,

well My husband took her snowmobiling today, and just the joy in his eyes and her eyes made me smile. Then we took her sledding and he went down the hills with her and everything. He is going to be a great dad someday i hope i can fill that for him, and Make him a dad... But around dinner time is what hit me the most, and i had tears...I was making a salad and looking into the front room, and he was teaching her how to use the index, and had his arm around her and trying to sound out words with her and and looking for the number to find what they were looking for, it was truly amazing...He is a amazing husband...and i can't wait to see him as a father...he will be amazing

On another note: Today is 12 days till my surgery date, I'm totally excited!!!I got on Birth Control on Friday.. I got the implanon put in my arm...Yes it was sore on Fri, and sat, but mostly Saturday, i went snowmobiling and had to push my car out of the ditch and the dog hit my arm...so it was hurting, but i iced it last night for a few hours and today so far its OK...not fully 100% better, but alot better!Everything else has been going great, the weather has been pretty nice.Oh, got my mom's treadmill at my house and put up, she is letting me borrow hers until we can get one..

But I'm SO clueless..I will only be 2 weeks pos-op around v-day..and My hubby and i usually make abig steak and potatoes and salad and wine dinner...i don't know what to do this year... its something we have done for 5 years now...and this will be the first year we won't be doing it... I'm clueless...I know we can always do the whole go to the movies...but that gets boring.. we do that all the time.. can't really enjoy to much activity outside because its cold.....i dunno...i guess maybe I'm thinking out-loud, hopefully someone has my magical answer..

21 days and counting.............


Well as of today its 21 days till my surgery!!

I'v been working hard on watching what i eat...but boy has it been hard... My lunches have been sugar free Instant Breakfast mix with skim milk..Yumm-o...lol "not really" but it has been helping curve my appetite and not eat so much..and its healthier for you

I can't wait to get my mom's treadmill over here because i believe that will help me...Don't get me wrong i LOVE my wii fit..but sometimes you want to do something different...and i'm a big whimp when it comes to walking outside in the cold...lol...

Other then that not to much new...

I will be getting on Birth Control on the 15th.. I'm going to be getting the implanon...and that is a little matchstick like thingy, they put in your arm and it last 3 years...and can be taken out anytime you want!! So i'm kinda excited about that...No pills, no nuva ring...

Will write more sometime soon, when i have more updates!!
Thanks for taking the time to read!!
