So I have been away over the weekend and tried to put the fact that am having a minor op tomorrow out of my mind.
The fact that the weather has been so glorious has helped - although it was so hot in the house i was staying in that i could not sleep.
Why didn't you open a window I hear you ask? Well on arrival on Friday night at said house in the country we were buzzed by hornets who were nesting in the eaves of the house. I have never seen a hornets face before but these were big - very big. I did not fancy sharing my bedroom with a hornet - i am a live and let live kinda girl but if one of these had joined me I think I would have to have found some fly spray or stronger.
So I have well and truly baked and not had much sleep but I have relaxed with friends. I think to myself 'Oh well will have plenty of sleepy time after the anaesthetic tomorrow.' I just hope it cools down a bit as a hot water bottle to ease the pain in this weather is not going to sit well.
So tomorrow morning I am going in for my little procedure to remove a fibroid - hopefully this will solve the problems of the last few months. I still have to wait for results of any tests they do - trying not to think about that until afterwards.
Last experience of anaesthetic was not good - hope this time is better. A little nervous if I am honest. Do not know if i am staying in over night or if they will let me come home - getting mixed messages on that one. Hope i don't stay in too risky.
Love DB
