Today was as good of a day as it could be considering the circumstances. The weather is beautiful, sunny and warm. I was hell bent on having a fun family day and we ended up going to our neighbor's house to play. Kyle and Nick set up a swing set and the kids had a blast. I sat in the sun and just hung out. It was really nice for all of us and probably the best medicine I could have had today. It felt so good to have the sun on my face.

I'll be going in to the hospital at 3pm tomorrow. I will have a very small dose of anesthesia and only be out for about 10 minutes. Then some recovery time, but will be heading back home for the night.

I have a feeling that the time between 3pm and 5pm when I am actually scheduled will be especially difficult. If you think of us, send some prayers of strength our way.
