Anyone having surgery in Oct ?

I'm having my surgery Oct 5th my per op class is Sept 23rd. I'm getting super excited only thing that worries me is missing classes I just enrolled into two classes and they start the 14th I'll be missing 3 classes plus a whole week of surgery. Hoping my teachers will be okay and let me work it out so I don't fall behind or get knocked for missing class.

Just had my 1 on 1 with my surgeon.. scheduled for oct 1..on liquid diet now. Not so bad..

11 days and counting....how is everyone feeling? I am worried I might have a cold coming on and wonder if I should go ahead and get an appointment with my GP.

Spent yesterday pulling all my clothes that are too small from my shed (3 tubs). The I pulled all the too small stuff that I crammed into the top of my closet and the bottom. Finally from all my other hiding places. I put them in tubs according to size. I didn't have enough tubs so I used some white trash bags and wrote in permanent marker on the outside what size they are. Then I put them back in my shed with the larger ones on top and the smallest stuff at the bottom. This way as I (wow I have to think of a word that is the opposite of outgrow and I am not used to thinking that way) shrink into smaller sizes I just grab a new tub.

@@395Ron I really need to fo that too! Have three closets to tackle. During my recovery, I would really like to set up an eBay store for the clothes I outgrow. I tend to spend too much on my clothes and would love to get a little of it back! I have been reading that there is even a chance our shoes will become too big!! When is your surgery date again, Ron?

@@edie091371 6 October is my surgery date.

Please help me out. I would like to get us all on one list by date. I will start and the next person copy, paste and put your in order and we will have a list of peoples date and names. I removed Saturdays and Sundays.
