Well it's official, I'm getting surgery (for real this time). I've given it a few weeks and i realized that my hip is getting more uncomfortable. It's not too bad, definitely not unbearable, but I'm sick of dealing with it. Also, i can't do everything that i want to do. I'm tired of not being able to push myself when I'm climbing. I'm just tired of having to be a pansy. So i decided that I'm just going to do the surgery and get it over with now rather than later. It will be good to get it all out of the way before the wedding.
I have an appointment for September 30th to get the surgery. It's not the huge crazy surgery so my recovery time should be much less. When i went to see the 2nd opinion doctor last month he told me that i should only be on crutches for a couple weeks and i should be all back to normal within 2-3 months. That means that i won't be on crutches in the snow and ice, and i should be good to go by the end of the year! Sounds great to me!
So as of September 30th I'm out for a little while but i should be fixed! Yay! I'm taking off the rest of that week and hopefully i can get back to work and school by the next Monday. It should be a nice little (doped-up, pain-filled) vacation. But it should be good. i think I'll stay with Carolyn (you're the best!) for a few days before I'm on my own. It should be a fun little adventure!
I'll be getting my surgery packet pretty soon so I'm sure I'll have more fun details in the coming weeks.
Other fun stuff....we're getting our engagement photos taken before my surgery in a couple weeks so that will be fun! I'm super excited for that! I wanted to get the fall colors but i can't really do that with the surgery and all that so we're doing it before the surgery. Also, my mom reserved a place for the Michigan reception thing! Yay! It's at a park in the country, near where my dad grew up. There is a stone cabin there and we got that for the reception. I think it will be really nice! I'm excited!
Ok well enough of that exciting stuff! Soon to come: a post about the Canning Adventures David and I have been having! We're so domestic :)
