Just giving you a heads up that I will be away from my computer next week.
First on a little fun trip to NYC and then on a little not-so-fun trip to the OR.
For those of you not in the know that last one isn't to Oregon, it's the Operating Room.
Duh duh duuuuh.
I've been trying not to think about the impending doom operation but next week it's here and I can't plug my ears, close my eyes and hum pretending it's not going to happen anymore.
You may remember that I am scared sh**less wary of hospitals, so this is going to probably be the end of me be a big challenge for me.
The operation is to burn off the endometriosis that has attached itself to my internal organs wrecking havoc on my insides.
I know it sounds disgusting and it feels exactly like this
(only worse).
So…hopefully my Dr. manages Ripley the hell out of it
and turns it all into ashes. My dream of becoming an ashtray is finally coming true {sigh}.
I don't know how long my recovery will take but with a little luck and some really good drugs I should come out with both arms and legs still attached be back to my regular snarky self in no time.
See you on the other side!
Have a great time in NYC and *try* not to worry (says a fellow worry wart who also loathes all things medical).
When you feel up to it, let us know how things went.
Sending my most positive thoughts your way!

Have a great time in NYC!

I’ll be sending healing thoughts your way! Enjoy NYC!
How nice you get a treat before your ordeal! And I’m only saying it’s an ordeal because you’re making it an ordeal – I’m sure it will be fine and you’ll feel so much better afterwards. Really, you will.
This is the start of feeling wonderful some short time afterwards. Just think of NYC for the moment and the rest will sort itself out. Will be thinking of you and anticipating your return with tales to tell. Xx
Well, holy crap, that sucks! Even though the intelligent adult in you knows you’ll be fine, the little kid in you is peeing her pants. I feel your pain though…I had knee surgery a few months ago and I was terrified they’d find lung cancer in the chest x-ray, I wouldn’t wake up from the anesthesia, and a million other things. And yet, here I am, your hair twin, alive and well! You will be fine and you’ll feel so much better when it’s done.
Enjoy your trip to NYC!

Hello Suzanne! I’m just catching up on my blogging friends and caught your news. First off I hope you have a wonderful trip to enjoy the later stages of summer. I’m sorry to hear about the surgery but hopefully they make it all better and pain and that sh@%
stuff will go away completely. They can work wonders for sure!
I also wanted to thank you for your kind comments on Stylemindchic. I so appreciate the love and support for sharing the not so sunny side of life sometimes. Hey, just like you are doing here (funny images by the way).
Enjoy your time away and I’ll be sending good thoughts/prayers for a speedy recovery.
xx, Heather
I hope your operation all goes okay, I loved the references to Alien for what it’s worth 🙂
Oh my gosh! I really hope your surgery goes well. I know it can be scary but I’m sure everything will be okay. I’ll be thinking of you ♥

I hope everything goes well with the surgery. My thoughts will be with you. Take as much time off as you need, we’re not going anywhere.
Have a wonderful time in NYC
Praying your surgery goes well and you recuperate quickly. I’m sure your doggie-baby will take good care of you!
Good luck girl! I’m sure everything will be totally fine! You’ll do great 🙂

Oh man! Well, have fun in NY first of all. And then know we are all thinking of you and hoping your experience in the hospital isn’t too bad. Good luck with everything!
Lots of luck with it all – I have lots of friends, relatives and acquaintances with endo, it is a scourge, but I know how many great results they’ve had with the surgery etc.

I shall miss seeing your cute little smile and post but best of luck, I will be thinking of you.
Have a great bloggy break Suzanne….more power always to you & will look forward to your return!
