I have been so distracted and busy lately.
Between work, school and training I barely have the ability to cook and sleep properly. Thus, the bloggie, and my IF world attentions has suffered. But, seriously…who is dying to read about my laparotomy drama. Honestly.
Regardless and for the record, it’s been pushed off until November due to the fact that this three-hour, tandem surgery requires two specialists who’s dance cards are apparently almost full. But, it’s now finalized at last. So, I get to watch my poor husband fumble with our Thanksgiving turkey as I sit by and watch helplessly in the name of recovery.
All I know is, I got a “Go.Lytely” scrip hanging on my cork board laughing at me as the day before surgery grows near.
In my best Aunt Linda voice: “This get’s one ‘Oh, brother’ and three ‘Criiiiippes’!”

I hate, hate, HATE the bowel preps. I’ve done three…no wait…four. Yep, surgery #2 I had to do two because my surgery got pushed back a week after my little cancer scare. SUCKS.

By the fourth time, I was an expert at staying hydrated without dying of starvation. Lots of homemade broth is perfect! Add a little salt, and you almost feel like you’re eating real food
I’ve never had such a long wait though, for surgeries – mine were all get-in-there-and-get-that-crap-out-of-me-already types. Hope you have a few distractions to keep you busy while you wait!

Somehow, despite 3 laps, I have never had use Go.lytely. I hope I never have to!
I have however, had sugery right before Thanksgiving and had the pleasure of watching my (now ex) hubby try to clean the house & cook dinner for my soon-to-arrive family… Good times

I want to read about it.
I do not want to hear it. Or see it, but that goes without saying.
Or smell it.
But I do like to read about it.

Is there ever a good time for explosive diarrhea? You are so funny, yet the topic is not the least bit funny, is it? Thankfully, you are on the schedule at last and pretty soon it will all be history.

Ugh. That stuff is foul. I’m sorry you have to wait until November. (Things like that, always better to get over and DONE with).
