Cauliflower Ear

My ear is killing me! I spent the better part of this morning on the phone (I really should get a hands-free thingahootch, shouldn't I?)

Husband and I had questions, questions, questions about this upcoming surgery, and I had to move some appointments around, so I've been busy making a round of phone calls.

And then there are the kids. What to do with them when I'll be in the hospital for 23 hours? A friend of ours has generously offered to help out with that. And Husband may be able to take some time off to, you know, help me out.

Horrors! He may have to (gasp!) get the groceries! I won't be able to carry anything heavy....wonder how he'll like toting the laundry up and down the basement stairs?

At any rate, in less then a month I'll get the hernia fixed and be on the way to a more normal life.
