Today was church with a brunch afterwards. Probably ate more than I should but I did pass on the cinnamon roll. Prayed about the surgery in church. One of our church members, in her 60's was killed in a car accident Friday night - a grim reminder of how short life can be and to make the most of it while you can. Listened to some mediation disks on the computer. Did not sleep well last night. Some joint and muscle aches most likely from the cholesterol med even though I stopped it on Friday. Not even the buckwheat pillow helped. That pillow goes wherever I go. It shapes itself around my head perfectly.

Trying to eat up what is in the fridge that my husband won't eat so ate two avocados - lots of calories there. That will be my dinner. Tomorrow will be cereal for breakfast, lettuce salad for lunch and nothing but liquid for dinner. Cleaning up my office area at home so I don't have that to come home to on Thursday. Started putting things together for the hospital. Went to my office to print out some stuff and my color printer decided to quit - spent about an hour trying everything to bring it back to life but I think it is the cable so will try to get a new one tomorrow morning. Seems as though I've been busy all day and I'm wondering if that might be way of avoiding the feelings associated with this lifestyle change? Still haven't taken a before picture - must do that before Wednesday. Hope I sleep better tonight. Tikki
