I have been thinking about all the things I need to get sorted before I go into hospital.The list just keeps getting longer,
Heres what I have so far:

First and foremost, get fit and lose some weight! This seems a common aim for most of us pre-surgery. I have put on about 10lbs since my Arthroscopy. Too much sitting around feeling sorry for myself. So I have decided to try and lose a bit of weight, whilst eating as healthily as possible, stocking up on lots of iron rich foods(bring on the liver!)Also I am going to start swimming more, and dust the cobwebs off my bike.

Keep on top of the housework. I spring-cleaned last week, but am sure it will need it again before May!

Freeze lots of nutritous meals for when I get home.

Hair cut, and colour(yes, I am going grey around the edges,thanks to the NHS!)

Buy lots of granny style nighties for in hospital, and joggers to slob around in afterwards.

Book train tickets.

Book hotel for OH and youngest daughter to stay in London, whilst I'm enjoying all-inclusive at the UCH.

Arrange kennels, and vaccinations for the animals.

Have necessary bits waxed!

Teach 17yr old how to use washer,cooker,vacuum, its the first time she has been left(OMG!).


Then theres the next lot of lists...
Make lists for thing to buy for hospital stay, lists of questions to ask at my pre-op, lists of lists.....
Aaaargh!
