The count down is happening way to fast!!!! Seriously!!!! I had to start my day getting blood drawn. I got typed and matched for the blood bank. We got home and the phone rings. It was my Dr. Not good!! My white blood cell count came back from last week and it was elevated. So I had to run back to the hospital and get it done again!!! He was one hour to late for the first stick. Have I ever said how much I hate getting blood drawn?!?!?!?!?!?!  Let alone 2 sticks in one day????

So I decided since I have a few short hours of freedom left I was going to run to the store and get my most fav comfort food in the whole world!! When I was growing up my mom used to buy Stello Doro almond toast.  I used to sneak one once in awhile. But now I buy my own. And ironically my girls love them too. One of my all time fav breakfasts is a blended chai and 2 almond toast.  O M G !!!! I am set for the day then!!! That is sheer bliss for me!!!! Seriously!!!! That is my one downfall. I love them!!!! I also love herring in cream sauce!! But that is out of my price range these days and no one but me eats it so I can’t justify it. I decided I need some comfort food waiting for me for next week. 

Anyways… I was going on base so I decided to take up Dave’s car and get him a base sticker so we can use his to go on. We try to take whomever’s car has the most gas and it wasn’t mine today. But he didn’t have the access = stickers. So back to my story… I stop by his work and trade him out cars. I get up to pass and ID and get my number and wait my turn. Like forever!!! But we get there. I go up and the lady is like we can’t give the = stickers out. I was like what???? She informs me I have no proof we are married. Now you have to understand I do have a military ID that lists me as his dependant. The car however is only in his name. SO now id cars are not good enough. The lady asks me if I have our marriage certificate with me. I looked at her like I was dumb I guess. She starts telling me she has no proof we are married. I was like umm we have been married almost 22 years!! I don’t carry it with me. I honestly do not really know where it even is!! Who keeps it on them??? So I got DENIED!!! It sucked!! SO back into town I go and trade the cars back out. Then back to the base to get my toast. Then it was back home time. It was time to start the pre-op stuff….

Gross medical content ahead!! Warning!!!! I had to do a bowl prep. ITS NOT FUN!!!! I had to drink this whole bottle of magnesium citrate. I spent a reallll long time in the bathroom.  And I am on a liquid diet!! I am so freakin hungry!!!!! I want to gnaw my arm off!!!!!!! Eat my couch, dog, cat, pillow, etc…. I swear there is nothing left inside of me. I have to be at the hospital at 8:30 am to check in. I am so scared!!!! The girls are happy though because I will be here for them in the morning. Stephie was worried about not getting her morning snuggiedoodles.
