Just wanted to check in.
I can't sit at the computer for too long as it hurts too much after a while. I will tell you my little story. Jess and I decided to have take away food last Monday night, almost straight after eating it, I had severe pain and did not feel too good. The next day was much the same but by night it had eased a little. Come Wednesday morning the pain was still there. So off to the doctor I went (If you know me this was a big step as I dislike going to the doctor)She quickly told me that it was not food poisoning but my gall badder, she send me off for a scan to confirm it and when I got back she booked me into hospital. I had the operation last night, keyhole surgery and I was home the next morning.
I have to take things easy for the next few weeks but I should be fine. So what started off as a quiet week ended up full of events.

Gall bladder surgery is NO fun...but then again what surgery is? LOL I had mine removed...gosh I guess about 4 years ago and it turned out that the problem wasn't my gall bladder. Nice, huh? LOL Anyway, take it easy and enjoy having people worry about you. :) Love the layout Suzy did...super cute!

I think it's pretty sad that my first thought was "isn't keyhole surgery the best??" But surgery wise, it definitey is. I've had six surgeries on my stomach and the keyhole was by far the best in terms of recovery - I managed a 14 hour flight about 10 days afterwards. Not that I recommend it, so rest up, still sending my good thoughts your way!!
