2 weeks, 2days, 'till round 2

Yep,round 2 is going to be here before I know it! December 17th is the date and I'm ready, even though things don't seem to be falling into place. My surgery time has been changed 2 times since I've scheduled it and when I called to schedule my PT sessions, I found out that my PT left. I did find her (wether she likes is or not)and have scheduled my first 2 PT sessions with her. I just hope billing all works out the same as it did when she was at the other place. Don't get me wrong, she is more than worth it, but therapy get expensive. Because I'm having surgery so close to Christmas and New Years Eve, getting in at the "required times" has been difficult.

I'm a bit wierd in the fact that I wanted all things (time, place, surgeon, nurses and anastegiologist) to be the exact same as last time, but I already know it won't. I have all the faith in the world that my surgeon is the best, but if all things were unchanged I would feel more comfortable. I have my house set for recovery. My toilet is ready, my bike is set up and recliner is ready to be sat in. As for Christmas, my presents are bought and just need to be wrapped. I have the beer and wine for Christmas Eve with my family and just need to make the chex mix (not too early because Eric would eat it all and then I would have to make it again).

I also have my plan for the first two weeks in my head with regards to Eric.
Last time, I played the tough card and did most things by myself within a relatively short amount of time. This time, I think I'm going be a bit more "needy". This is my last shot I figure to see what Eric is really capable of. Grocery shopping, laundry, cleaning, dog duties, cooking, my personal cares and of course my last minute holiday shopping...how far can I push him!?!?!? In all seriousness, Eric is great to me and I have no doubt that he will do even better with me the second time around!

I'll post the specifics of my surgery time when the time comes closer. Knowing my surgery team, it will change once more before the time comes!

Happy Holidays to everyone!
