To Do List

So I started my to do list today!! It's like 3 miles long! I also started a packing list. I can't believe my surgery is 4 weeks from today. I'm starting to freak out just a little bit. I was reading through some of the literature that my doctor's office gave me and there are lots of big words! I think the ride down to NYC and the night before the surgery are probably gonna be the longest times of my life, not to mention the 2 hours in the hospital before surgery and also pre-op preparation. But I think what I'm most worried about is my poor mother sitting and waiting for me to come out of surgery. That is honestly the thing I'm most scared about, I'm scared she's gonna have another heart attack with her baby girl in surgery. But anyways here's my to do list:
  • Physical, Bloodwork, Labs, Sleep Study & Stress Test
  • Find Hotel & Make Reservations
  • Decide on a Broadway show and get tickets
  • Look up Amtrak times and get tickets
  • Wash my teddy bear (I'm such a baby I know!)
  • Buy new pillows
  • Find/Buy Mp3 player
  • Find/Buy books
  • Call Doctor's office - What do I need to bring, Pain Meds, Protein Drinks, etc.
  • Renew Car Insurance
  • Get Car Inspected
  • Check Muffler, Brakes, & wipers
  • Oil Change
  • Charge camera/video camera
  • Look at new camera/video camer
  • Plan out my calender (what days I have to stop meds, get in labs, call surgery, etc.)
  • Make a list of foods I can have and bring
  • Make CDs for car trip
  • Apply for time off
  • Buy Listerine
  • Buy Fan

So that's what I have so far, please any additions would be greatly appreciated.

Here are a few things I noticed about your post.

A.) You are not moms "baby girl", that's me.

B.) What is a "camer"?

Yeah alright I like to harass you, get over it. Or in the words of Jake, "Then you woke up..."
