Pre-op

So on Tuesday Feb 15th we drove down to Springfield for our pre admissions apt(which was pointless)! They make you drive 2 hours down there and then you only have 3 blood samples and a urine sample!! Ridiculous, the hubby and I were left with hours to do until hotel check in and sun down!! WHAT TO DO!

Well since the previous day was Valentines day and we didn't celebrate it we decided  that we would just for something to do. This was the first night without both kids EVER so we decided we are going to celebrate Valentines day! We started the night out with me getting a facial and makeover at the spa down there..I fell so in love with bare escentuals I decided that was my bday present to myself this year(I purchased the starter kit)!! YAY!

Anyway the night was kinda a blur we went to numerous shops and stores and bought things we never thought we would need, along with NEW shoes this is the only shopping I love to do... I love shoes! Then we moved along to dinner,drinks and more shopping! This was the best most relaxing evening ever! We wanted it to be perfect and something we have never down so we drove and visited a couple stores downtown(amazing) and a candy store. We were going to do the romantic thing like Ice skating, strawberries and wine, but I  felt it was rather boring to not be out and about the night before my surgery(plus I was worried Id fall and end up hurting the next day even worse) So we ended up shopping and having a fantastic time! What a great husband I have! I feel so blessed!

Now sleep was very little this night...we sat in the hotel room for hours and tried to wear out nothing worked so around midnight or so my hubby started snoring so I decided to play tricks on him! This is what happens when you fall asleep before the surgery victim(oh and true love ha ha)!

Anyway, I finally fell sleep but woke up every 15 minutes til around 3am when I couldn't get to sleep so I got up did my hair, makeup, etc(like you really need to look good for surgery)  Continued to Surgery day post....
