Awake and no place to go, yet.


So since I have began working I simply cannot sleep in. This morning is no exception, and it is one morning sleeping in would of been a good idea. I will be going for surgery today and getting my gall bladder taken out due to complications I am having of the fact that there is a 17 mm stone. The surgery is not till 12 noon and I have to be at the hospital by 10:30 a.m. and I am already dying for a large glass of water. I had to stop eating by 12 a.m. and no drink after 6 a.m. The eating part is no longer a problem for me since I read the book or should I say studied along with the book "Thin Within, a Grace based approach to weighloss" more info at www.thinwithin.org The 40 pounds I have lost in the past 5-6 months have been the easiest to loose and I no longer obsess about what, when or how much I will eat, I just eat when I am hungry(true hunger) but offcourse not this morning. The surgery will be done by Laparoscopy and is a day be at home in a few hours unless complications arise. Those who know me know that I plan on going to work tomorrow and I will most likely make it. I keep saying I am a tough lady.

By the way my eight weeks of working at Execaire was supposed to end on Friday but I was asked to stay on for now as the assistant to the inspector. I call the move "going to the testosterone zone" as I am the only woman working in the hangar, and only the 4th. in the whole company. I can say one thing "working with men is alot easier than working with a bunch of women!" I am really thankful to be able to work there and I truly enjoy going to work and look forward to learning much more about the Aviation industry. I keep salivating when I look at the helicopter(s) as I want a flight on it sooo bad. The executive jets are impressive but I have always wanted a helicopter ride.

Can you find Anisten in this picture? Toronto area has the reputation of being one of the most multicultural areas in the World, what do you think? Does it merit its title?
