Hooray! Thanks for all the well-wishes! I have the most incredible friends and family in the world!
I am feeling sore, but honestly, NOTHING like when I had my tonsils out. I know after I wean off [...]
My surgery is tomorrow at 10 am.
I’m getting nervous and scared. (Finally). I knew this was going to happen and was wondering when it would finally hit me. I’m so excited for “the rest of my life” to start, and I’m eager to get this done, but I’m still nervous.

I just tried to leave a comment ON MY OWN BLOG and MT junked it. [...]
My complexion is dry, dry, dry as a [insert your own old, tired simile here]. So dry, in fact, that I have to special order gooey, dewy, moisturizers. If I try to put apply my foundation without these emollients, by 10 am my face looks as cracked as a Renaissance fresco.
