Might try to squeeze in a workout between babysitting shifts, but I also might try to go grocery shopping, since I have almost no food in the house. Sigh. I am going to aim for a pilates DVD, but if not, then yoga and abs will suffice for now. Can't WAIT to go kayaking on Sunday- yesterday it said rain for Sunday, but now it says only partly cloudy.

Breakfast: the last of my cereal with the last of my soymilk

Lunch: no idea- probably a yogurt while I'm babysitting and some sort of fruit- they always have fruit

Dinner: Beats me- I'll be sitting at dinner time and will probably eat whatever I feed the kids- luckily, they like vegetables and the mom always has good, healthy food around.

Siezures are so scary.

I'm at home today. DH and I did strength training this morning. I have my in-home today. I also have house things to work on since our Supper club is tomorrow night and it's at our house.

Kinda bummed today. DH and his business partner are struggling right now so DH is probably going to take a contract job for 3 or 6 months. Even though it's not directly related, I do feel a bit of guilt going under the knife for purely superficial reasons. We are fortunate that DH is very employable and will probably make in those 3 or 6 months what he generally makes in a year with his own business. But, he loves being his own boss and doesn't really do well in corporate environments. On top of that, we are very spoiled in getting to have breakfast and lunch together on most days and I'm going to miss that. All things considered, this isn't a horrible thing but it does make me a little sad (I'm also PMSing which isn't helping either).

I'll have to update my food because I don't know yet and don't feel like figuring it out.

The pediatric neurologist we saw said with what he has, if it goes over half an hour, there's a very slight possibility of brain damage but his never last for more than 30 seconds (but it feels like forever!).

Since your husband can switch so easily and seems supportive, I think you should stop feeling guilty.

I know that you're right. I grew up in a Catholic family so guilt is in our nature. :) We talked about it more and I understand that even if I didn't have the surgery, it wouldn't make enough different to matter (besides, we already paid for it!). But, it's still hard to *not* think about it and feel selfish. I agree with you about the mental health aspect... although, when the hormones start rolling, it's easy enough to convince myself that this is totally superficial and vain and I don't need to do it.
