Surgery2

The surgery went really well. I am healing and recovering as expected. Nothing traumatic to post.

Now, I am really super excited about being able to have s*x without having to worry about getting pregnant. :)

Surgery

Today is my tubal ligation.

I am so excited about this surgery. The choice to not have anymore children was a hard decision to make.

On some level I feel as though, because I only have one child, that I am missing out on something. On other levels though, I just keep watching the time slip by. My one and only is now 15 years old and set to graduate (hopefully) in just three short years. Therefore, in theory it would be cool to have another child. In reality? Not so much. I honestly cannot imagine what it would be like to start over with a baby again. Ugg. No thanks. I am too old and too tired. I look forward to the new freedom and choices that sterilization brings me.

This surgery just clears the path to a whole new life. This surgery removes the possibility of having more babies completely out of the equation and leaves me with only one option: build a life that doesn't revolve around being a mom. How exciting is that?

First Time

So I have decided that maybe blogging is a good way to get out all of those "inappropriate" feelings and thoughts that I can't openly express to others without severe judgement and/or negative recourse. I suppose that I am hoping that the anonymity will be cleansing for the soul.

Gee, I've got so much to say that I don't even know where to begin. I am going to have to work on organizing my thoughts before I really get started...
