It has come to my attention that it really doesn’t matter how much it will kill me financially to do the surgery sooner rather than later, I have to get it done. Because while I can technically get a bunch of work in and bolster my checking account a bit if I put it off until mid-November, I will probably end up in worse shape and needing a longer recovery time if I do. Honestly, at this point, I wouldn’t even venture a guess as to how I’m not going to collapse in a quivering heap of pain before the end of this week. Viva la pain pills!
