This weekend was the last before surgery. And since last week was so busy with appointments and since this week is busy with more appointments and well, surgery, we decided to try and have a little bit of fun. Saturday, October 1st was the 40th anniversary of the opening of Walt Disney World. I wanted […]

Didn’t do a whole lot this weekend. Love was recovering from his extraction Thursday and was kinda sore and I was really, weirdly dizzy Friday and Saturday. Not like vertigo dizzy, more like lightheaded/spacey/woozy. If I got up too quick, my vision would go kinda white/foggy too for a second. I think that perhaps the […]

I desperately need to drum up some sales. Things have been so slow for over a week now and I’m honestly panicking looking at the dwindling balance in my account. With surgery 16 days away (and counting!) and $600 still to go, PLUS trying to build a little bit of a safety net while I’m […]

I don’t know what it is lately, but the last few days, I’ve just been extremely tired, fatigued and just generally run down. I almost feel like I’m getting sick again but that doesn’t make sense and I don’t really think I am, but it’s that kind of general body ache/malaise where you have no […]

Well i've had a few days to think about surgery now and I think oct 5th just makes more sense for a lot of reasons. There are still a lot of things we need to do and prep work for surgery plus our anniversary is the end of the month and I would hate to […]

So I’m still waiting to hear about when my surgery date is going to be. I had my last OB/GYN appointment August 16th and we left it as, “the scheduling nurse will call you for your surgery date!” and I left without any future appointments because any future appointments would be surgery date related. Well, […]

Man it was hot today. Long, hot day. But all in all, it went pretty darn good this weekend. The garage sale was a success. My sister took Saturday duty and they had a ton of people and sold a lot of the big items and made a whopping $500 for the day! So awesome. […]
