It's a little further out than I would have liked but with the surgeon that I wanted. You never know, I may get lucky with a cancellation. 
Thanks Sadie for your help. 

I would have posted yesterday but was a little emotional, and emotionally drained.
Anyway, another milestone and a good stopping point. I only have 3 rules:
Take responsibility for yourself.
Don't do anything to hurt anyone else.
Give back.
Three plus years ago I found this site and joined to connect and learn. Got caught up in life and transition and drifted away.
A year and a half ago I came back because I was losing it. Found my equilibrium and drifted away again.
This time I wanted to give back.
I wanted to help. Thing is, I am not sure that I have helped anyone. I don't have any wonderful insights to share and it has worn me down a little. This is turning into a post of lists. 

 Sorry
Believe it or not I still pray every day. I believe in God, not religion, but God. I have asked for the same things before I end every time:
Wisdom
Self discipline 
Integrity 
Charity 
Patience 
Humility 
Six months ago I added Tolerance 
Last month I added Perseverance 
Maybe God is not listening because I haven't really noticed any improvement over the years. I do try though. 😊
I will keep Perseverance on the list but for now I am going to have to let go for a while. Find another way to give back. I don't mind however people see me as long as I can make a difference. I can't see that I am though and now it's starting to hurt. I don't really want to share anymore. 
Everyone who responded to my rambling was nicer than they needed to be. Thank you. 😊 
Everyone who shared their ups and downs. Thank you. 😊
Take care. You are a wonderful group of girls and you deserve to be happy.
May the best of your past be the worst of your future.
