Told My Boss

I told my boss today that I'm having surgery in Sept. or Oct. and he said "Okay." That was it.

I had built this up in my mind. What if he asks me what's wrong or why I'm having surgery? Do I tell him the truth or say it's private? What if we can't work out a good time to take off? Etc. Etc.

So it was kind of anti-climatic. But one less thing to worry about.

Plus he said not to worry about scheduling around our project, any time in Sept. would be fine. Wasn't that nice?

I will probably try to schedule around my patent application though. It's my first patent and I'm so excited! I'm supposed to be available to sign something on the 12th.

I have my surgical consult next week and I'm very excited. I asked Mr. Mac to come with me and he said "Okay". Hmm. Maybe this "Okay" response is just some guy thing...

SWEET!!! Things are going your way Girl! Take the "okay" from the husband as a good sign. He could've made up some feeble man-excuse not to go. He's probably more worried than he let's on.

Soon....I'm too excited for you!

You are psyched and ready to go. Me too, my surgery is coming up in September and I can't wait. After weighing up the issues regarding this surgery, the outcome was a big and overwhelming "Yes! It's Time". I am 54 and have similar health problems to you, and I can see myself feeling younger and fitter as time goes on. Best wishes for you.
