An Early Post.....

My day isn't over yet but I want to get this post up.    I won't be posting for a few days while I am in the hospital for the surgery on my leg.  I will admit that it makes me nervous.  Mostly because the incision will be so damn LONG!    To do an arterial bypass is no small thing.  A vein is removed from part of my leg and then it is attached above and below the area that is blocked.  It's very invasive, as you can imagine.

The Beast should be home from church shortly.  He left a bit early today so he could distribute the photos he had taken at the wedding.  He did a really nice job on them.  I was kind of surprised because he had never been interested in taking wedding pictures like the ones he did yesterday.  His were always more snapshots than portrait quality.  The subject of any picture he takes has to interest him if he is to do a good job.  I guess the wedding yesterday fell into that category for a change.

It's very warm but overcast today.  It's not humid, thank goodness.  I dried off quickly after my shower.  I smeared on the lotion they wanted me to use and I have to do the same tomorrow.  I hate how it makes my skin feel, however.  But I don't want any unnecessary infections so I am being good and applying it.

Mustachio says he will be here on Thursday.  I'm looking forward to that.  He is good company for me.  Baron loves him, too.  He will be very excited to see him.

The roses that the Beast's friend, Jason, brought over the other day still look wonderful.  I cut the ends of the stems off like they say you should do and I mixed the powder they always include with flowers into the water.  Whatever is responsible for them looking like they did when I first got them, I love it!

I'm trying hard to keep my activity to a minimum since I can't even use deodorant and I DO sweat when it's warm even if I DO love the heat.  Funny, but since I have to go to the hospital for a couple days, I am actually doing more than anticipated.  I'm clearing my desk and cleaning up my computer room.  My wastebasket is nearby so I really don't have to move much for those things that are just trash.  Why do we keep things around we really don't need?

Well, I hope your week goes well and it flies by for you.  I wish you great weather, too.  Love you all.  ****Hugs****
