Heading for the mountains.

Our family goes to a small town in Central Colorado every other summer for a week or so. Typically our stays are about five or six days, with two days of travel on either side. This summer's trip will be a full week "in country", our longest yet. And all the "there" time is in the same cabin, another first.

So, we're in full-on shopping/packing/planning mode at the moment. Toiletries are taken care of for the family, the kids are starting to think about what they're packing and Jim should be at least a little packed from just coming back from his solo trip to CO, just this last week. I think I have mostly every thing I need, now it's to organize and plan/pack. The plan looks great in my head, no guesses as to actual practice.

T-1. Tick.....tick.....tick.....

So, tomorrow's the big day. I spent today taking my second round of antibiotics, on a clear liquid diet and doing my colon prep. It's pretty safe to say I don't feel like going dancing right now and my lower alimentary canal has just asked for a divorce. However, if you happen to have a wonderfully greasy cheeseburger for me, you'll have a friend for life. I realize not much of this makes sense and really this is just putting off going to bed. I'm a little anxious and scared, at the same time really wanting this whole thing over. So much feels uncertain right now - health, career, education - and after tomorrow a new normal will happen that there's no preview for. I am certain of the important things, thankfully. Between my husband, my family and so many fiends, no one has let me forget that I am loved and that alone will help me sleep tonight and get through the surgery and recovery. How blessed I am. And with that I shall say goodnight.
