I’m a planner, I can’t help it. I just feel
more in control when things are clearly spelled out for me. April 16th is fast approaching and my thoughts are so scattered. So, for my own sanity, I
had to draw up a list of things to do prior to my surgery. Feel free to borrow
this list if you like. I’m happy to help. J
