44 hours

in about 44 hours i will be home in VA once again. sorta... i land at 10:10AM on Thursday, i will be off to my Grandma's for the night from there and then will be back in Stafford Friday. After that, well, thats just the BEGINING of the CRAZY!

I have alot of homework to do over break. and i hope to finish it all before Thanksgiving day because my sister Kimmy is gonna be arriving that day and i need to have my complete attention on that time!!! SUNDAY I WILL BE AT PILLAR FOR CHURCH SO COME!!!!!

on a different note, i have barely any winter clothes! i have 4 long sleeve shirts that fit and 2 pairs of pants... and a hoodie. considering this is more then most have, i am grateful, but i dont know how i am gonna make it in that 30degree mess up there! today it was warm and beautiful here in Florida, i have a feeling im in for a gianormous shock here soon!

Im excited to be where the leaves change (please tell me there are still leaves on the trees), see that firey scene as a fly into DC, and embrace those i love and miss with big hugs!
See you soon!!!

Anesthesia

Its a fun thing, truly.
The last thing i remember is laughing as they put an oxygen mask on my nose and attaching a bunch of wire things and an IV to my arm...When i woke up my mouth was full of gauze and i felt great, i tried to get up and do a bunch but the Nurse kept pushin me to stay put. when my friend came and got me they walked my woozy self out to the car and off we were to Publix (equivalent of Bloom) where i got to ride around the store in an electric cart chair thing. that was fun. Liz had to keep redirecting me so i wouldnt run into the shelves.
Apparently i decided to text and call some friends, leaving funny voicemails and texts that i dont remember ever sending.
when i got back to the Dorm, Liz took care of me and stayed with me. She bought me a slinky and some coloring books while they were takin my teeth out and so i played with those things while we watched the first season of Gilmore Girls.
today, since the numbness wore off, the pain was tough. but i watched Gilmore Girls and relaxed.
Havent eaten much in the last couple days but soup and mashed potatoes and a shake. oh and a sweet friend bought me Popsicles. I love my friends, they have really made sure i am Ok.
Liz was taking such care of me that she forgot to take care of herself and ended up getting dehydrated, so we were able to recooperate together.
All in all, the pain hasnt been too bad, the company has been great, and its really weird to see stitches in my mouth!!!
