Blog Break

Here are some cool maple leaf shots I took while walking one morning in early summer.

I'll be taking a blog break for at least a couple of weeks as I'm having an elective hysterectomy due to a large fibroid I've had for years. It's major surgery, but very common with about a 6 week recovery period. It's a bit scary, but I haven't been thinking about it much, well, until the past few days as it looms closer.

I decided to go ahead with the procedure sooner rather than later, while I'm in good health. I also have a good rapport with this gynecologist and feel confident she'll do a good job.

It's a busy weekend ahead. We're spending a day at a friend's cottage then I have to prepare to spend 2 or 3 days in hospital next week.

Summer Pathway

I was walking through this pretty summer pathway and thought it was worthy of a photo! I've likely taken a photo here before but every year, it seems a bit different.

I'm having some major surgery done in a few weeks (hysterectomy). It's elective, but better done sooner rather than later as I've had a large fibroid for years. It will require 2 or 3 days in hospital. Yesterday I had to do some pre-admission bloodwork at the lab. It was busy, but they processed at least 30 of us in about an hour.

Then I picked up some new mouthguards at the dentist in the same building. I have a grinding problem at night.

I'll take a blogging break starting the middle of next week I think, to get ready for the surgery. The weekends are also getting busy.
