I really should have been in bed a few hours ago. I am scheduled for my lap band surgery tomorrow morning at 7:15AM. But I have to be there at 5AM. I haven't slept much in the last couple days and I don't plan on that actually happening much until tom night. Of course it is going to be weird being a pt in the hospital I have worked for 6 years. I have worked as an Nursing Assistant many times on the nursing unit I will be on, mind you it has been a few years but still. I hope I don't see too many ppl that I have worked with and know while I am on the other side of the Nurses desk for a change.
It seems so far away still maybe that's why I can't talk myself into getting my butt into bed yet. I Have done the whole "clear liquid" diet today and have been none to happy to hear a certain friend keep reminding of all the foods I can't have, even though I have been starving all day. You know who you are! Just kidding. It really hasn't been that bad. If nothing else, I got lots of encouragement and hugs. A princess has to at least do her best to make sure those around her know she ain't going away quietly. Ok, ok, ok, so I don't do quiet very well. But hey, that's me and why ppl love me. lol
I have to say I am not as bummed about not being able to eat as I am the no driving, no swimming and 25lb weight restriction. That is gonna be awful. I get antsy very quickly with no wheels. Plus my poor dog is gonna be so hurt when I won't let her sleep on me. She has become accustomed to me being her pillow and blanket warmer.
For now, I must close. I have to do all my double checks. Make sure I have all my stuff packed, my ipod ( a must!), my comfy cloths, my teddy bear since I can't take my big ole doggie j/k.
