A few thoughts........

Well as you can see when having trouble sleeping, pain twinges, etc. you tend to be up at weird hours typing away on the old keyboard. Of course there will probably be no sleep tonight awaiting the big day in the city on Wednesday. I got my fill of pre-operative testing Monday. It's funny go in for back surgery and the pre-op moves you from room to room- EKG this, blood work here, stand up, sit down! Ummmm, people do you see the crutches? My big thrill though was to get the showering instructions for tonight and Wednesday morning. They gave me the antiseptic soap- yeah the orange stuff. What a complete thrill as I will certainly look like The Great Pumpkin that I am sure even Charlie Brown wouldn't want!

I did have a couple of people email and ask me for the right email to send well wishes and even a couple more asked for my mailing address: The email is lchauvette@verizon.net and the mailing address is Lee Chauvette, P.O. Box 592, Athol, Ma.01331. Again I truly appreciate the support this blog and the new website are getting. As soon as I am able to return to the keyboard, probably Friday or Saturday I'll update you on the progress. Course some have always implied I was a pain in the back side, but a little lower than my proposed surgical site! Thanks again.
