Exhausted on the Eve of Surgery

I am already exhausted. This week has already been one for the record books. Phew. Just thinking about it. And I haven't even had my surgery yet. Wow.

Phillip and I have been up at the hospital since yesterday morning with his dad. Don't worry bloggers, everything is good. But we had a scare after a routine procedure that has him in the hospital through at least Saturday. So we've been up here for almost 2 full days. Didn't spend the night. But between errands run for the family and going home to sleep last night, we've been hunkered down in the private room.

Today I went to pre-op for my surgery that's tomorrow afternoon. Originally my pre-op was scheduled for yesterday. However, yesterday's events forced me to reschedule for today. Everything seems pretty straight forward. I have some pre-op stuff to do, on top of finishing up cleaning and laundry. But I should be ready to go. I head in tomorrow at 12:15. Poor Phillip will have to spend another day waiting in the hospital. Then Friday, his dad has another procedure so he'll go back up to this hospital. Crazy.

I haven't worked at all this week, except for Monday. I've been fielding emails and other communications. But other than that, I haven't been able to do as much as I had planned. I'm thankful to have an incredible boss who understands and is completely ok with me taking the time I need in order to come back full-force next week.

Heather and Kevin are coming in town this weekend. Exciting. They'll stay with us to help out with me when Phillip goes up to the hospital for his dad, and to help with Murphy when Phillip is taking care of me.

What an exhausting week already, no? And it's just going to be more of a marathon. I'm getting nervous about my surgery too....
