Problem Solved

Recently, I have posted gross things about myself. More specifically, the fact that I have "cryptic tonsils." Well, Monday, this problem will be solved. I will have what I like to call "No-Mo" tonsils. I have surgery scheduled at 7am Monday morning... God awful early for surgery, sure hope the doc is a morning person!
Then, it's all good for me, because even though I will be in more pain that I care to think about, with no epidural in sight, I will at least have access to liquid pain medicines, and as much ice cream and popsicles as I can fit into 24 hours a day. I've even been warned that I may lose a few pounds... how is this not a WIN- WIN situation? Besides, the pain, I mean. But, hey, I had a child, I can do this too. But, childbirth didn't last 7 - 10 days. That's how long they keep saying that it will take me to feel better. Ugh.

So, this is also fair warning that my next post may be a little late in coming, and if it is next week, please go easy on me. I may be so taken care of by medicines that I may not know what I am really saying. Just a precaution... don't want too many people to be upset about not seeing a new post next week, if that's what happens! :) Pray for me, and the doctors taking care of me!

yuck! no turkey and dressin' for you! maybe pureed, with some cranberry sauce?

i am sorry sweetie, but at least you won't have anymore weird throat ailments for awhile!

I don't even have to cook a turkey this year! That's the best part of all!

I could send a jar of pureed turkey and potatoes. Will that do?

Sorry about the surgery! But maybe you'll feel better on the 11th day!

I think I still have one of those leftover...
But, I didn't eat them when I fed them to Micheal, and I won't eat them now. Thanks for the offer! :)

That's okay, the smell alone of many pureed foods is enough to make you not hungry. The puree diet, guess.
