And the Genie Gave Her Three Wishes...

I made it through Monday's work day. Only two more days of work left. Today I had to put my leave into the school's system to get a sub to keep my kidos movin forward until I have healed up. I still don't know how I will be able to do lunch duty when I get back. Oh well...one day at a time.

I still do not have a whole lot to update you on right now. I have planned my "last supper" though. My mom will come here the night before my surgery and when she gets in we are gonna go to Olive Garden for a fun filled night of endless soup and salad. It truly is the little things that make life better. I also found out that my scooter has shipped! Whoo! See? The little things. Love them!

I find myself looking at my foot more and more. It's like..I know that in just a few days my foot will never be the same. Haha, I actually worry that I wont like my new foot. How crazy is that!?! I wish I could see what it will look like a year from now when the stitches are gone, the pins are gone, the boot, gauze, wraps, and tape are gone. How bad will my scars be? Will I regret this or will I wonder why it took me so long? I wish I could know what to expect. One thing that never changes with all of the research I do on this procedure is that everyone is different. No one recovers the same. What will my pain be like when the nerve block wears off? Will it just be uncomfortable? Will I scream in the middle of the night when my foot starts to throb? Everyone tells me that the pain will eventually subside, but still, I will go through pain and I have no idea how bad it will be for that fraction of a time in my life. I wish I could fly. Yep, you read that right, fly. I always picked that wish growing up so if I only had three that one would definitely be on the list. Feet would kinda be pointless then right?
