Making a list. Or two.
Shopping. Now I have fresh and
frozen foods in the refrigerator. We
have breakfast, lunches and dinners to the ready. I found “loose” clothes….a George T-shirt. My PJ bottoms…they will do. Prescription to CVS. I still have to call the surgery center one
more time tomorrow…they aren’t open Mondays.
His dress shirt is in the cleaners.
He can pick it up on Friday.
Oh, all the trivia of
going away without going. All the small stuff.
Even the big stuff like
laundry is done. It’s only 16 days till
the wrapping and cast comes off. One
nurses aide I swim with volunteered to come help with my one big problem…the
bathroom. I might be able to use the
toilet then rinse in the shower. There’s
always that.
Counting the days. Three days till surgery. One more day at work. Two more days in the pool.
The problem with sporadic blog reading is that when I return after an absence, I realize how much I've missed. Sincere best wishes with the surgery.
ReplyDeleteThinking of you in the days ahead for surgery and recovery, Mage.
ReplyDeleteHope all goes well. It certainly sounds as though you are prepared on the 'home front'.
ReplyDeleteThankful that you are not in control says it all. Release your worries to others and live in the moment. If you look back you will see you have gotten through stuff like this before.
ReplyDeleteTaking a trip, not taking a trip..............
ReplyDeleteThinking of you every day. You've prepared well. Soon it will be behind.
ReplyDeleteIt must be an anxious time for you. Wishing you the best.
ReplyDeleteI'm still looking to see what kind of surgery you had...
