I haven’t been able to jog for a few weeks, thanks to my aforementioned complications. Unfortunately, the problems just got worse the more I tried to exercise, so I finally went back to my doc. Long story short (and to spare you the TMI), it looks like I’ll be having surgery the week of Thanksgiving.

I’m not upset about it; on the contrary, I’m very glad that my docs were in agreement about what needed to be done and the expediency with which they’ve arranged the procedure. I’m doubly grateful that it’s over the holiday weekend, because I don’t have a lot of sick time built up, so I’ll save a few days’ worth. Doc says I need to stay home for a week, so that should work out swimmingly.

The added bonus is not having to travel or cook for Thanksgiving! :p  Is that selfish? Oh, well.  I joked with my husb that he and the boys could go visit family, and I’ll stay home and recuperate. He laughed at me. The nerve! 😉
