Popped my balloon!

Well it was not a runny nose.... still have a residual CSF leak that needs to be addressed, so I go in to get a Nasal Surgical Flap put in at 8am. (Maybe it'll be like the Wizard of Oz curtain and I'll get a wizard to drive some of these decisions in my life,!)

According to the doc, pretty routine and simple procedure, but will require yet another 2 or more days in the hospital.

I miss my dogs.
I miss my cats.
I miss uninterrupted sleep.
I hate hospital food.
I miss my taste buds. When do those come back?!?
I miss being able to actually taste food.
I miss running water.
I miss pants.... well, sorta!
I miss freedom.
I miss my CPAP
I can't wait to blow my nose!
I miss the dogs.
I look forward to actually breathing through my nose.
I miss having my period in the privacy of my own "home".
I miss being able to finish a conversation without falling asleep mid sentence.

However, I will not now, not ever, miss the peapod!!!

    1. If they were closer I'd definitely work out a way to see them!!! Today my nose hurts, but the other days would've worked just fine!!!
