I’m actually feeling positive today about my upcoming surgery.

1. Lucky for us, we found a house sitter/dog sitter, so Hubby will be with me every step of the way.
2. We got a hotel reservation with a hospital discount. Woo-hoo!
3. Not only do they include breakfast in the price of the room, but dinner with wine or beer as well.
4. That’s a good thing because after my first procedure I may not feel like going out.
5. The reviews for the hotel give it 5 stars out of 5.
6. One reviewer said the beds were very comfortable! Yay beds!
7. I got all my pre-registration done on the phone last night.
8. All my paperwork is in order!
9. I went out with my girlfriend for lunch today to catch up.
10. I went to Weight Watchers in the morning and lost half a pound!
11. The Dackels go in to the Vets for their yearly exam tomorrow.
12. Friday I am off to see Savannah and Mandy for lunch.
13. Then it is packing, cleaning, and preparing over the weekend!

Congratulations to all my Catholic friends. The new Pope seems like a lovely man. I will pray that he cares well for the Church.
