I will hopefully be in a deep sleep in a recovery room at NWH.  It's been a long wait, but I think I'm ready.  Z and I are both anxious as all hell, doing everything we can not to kill eachother.  I will be very happy when the next phase of my new life starts.  even happier i bet when i can eat solid food. *gag*

So, I told the remaining co-workers about my surgery.  I wasn't sure I really wanted to tell them specifics, but I also didn't want them just wondering why I would be gone so long and if I was "sick" or what.  Imagine seeing a colleague leave for 6 weeks medical leave and they return 50lbs lighter and with thinning hair!  You'd be thinking cancer ( Read more... )

the 2 weeks part is what I should be thankful for.  Tufts could really drag their feet if they wanted to...but I got my date of November 12.  yahoo!!!!

In my case, it takes 6 months, 1 week, and COUNTING!  I completed my 6 month program that Tufts requires, and it's been a week since the surgeon submitted the rest of my information.  I am told that I *should* get approved this week and have a surgery date for sometime in November (no Thanksgiving for me!).  Send good vibes my way!!!!!

We drove up to Maine for Z's mom's birthday.  She turned a whole 62 years old.  She was pretty energetic.... i napped more than her!  We had dinner at her place Friday night.  She had bought corn on the cob at a nearby farm, fresh picked that morning.  It was the best damn corn i've ever had.  I will miss corn on the cob, especially now that i've ( Read more... )

I'm referring to myself.  Moving, pain and stress does not bring out the best in me.  I just want to get some rest and wake up and it all be over.  Not a chance.  Z leaves for a trip tomorrow and will be gone all weekend.  I get to pack the rest of the house on my own.  Mostly, it's just my stuff left.  we're getting rid of so much stuff in the ( Read more... )

 So, my mom had lunch today with my uncle - dad's brother.  As my mom relayed what they discussed over lunch, I thought to myself, "gee, he doesn't know I changed my name....and my mother told everyone she knows that I changed it because I didn't like Uncle M. and all my other relatives on that side are dead.  I wonder if that came up during the ( Read more... )

so, potential new landlady called to get the # of our current landlords.  i put my tail between my legs and called them to ask if it was ok to give their number and would they say positive things about us.  AZ said she would, and was fairly nice.  If they want us out, they can't really badmouth us.  She  called my work today too to verify ( Read more... )
