I came home from hospital yesterday. I have had my surgery. I'm feeling a bit sore. I have four holes in my stomach. I feel like I have indigestion all the time. I can only eat liquid foods for the first three weeks. I don't know if I am feeling hungry, sore or something else. It's a strange feeling. I can't get comfortable. I don't feel sick or anything. We will see how it goes.

I am booked in for Lap Band surgery on 11th May 2010. I am starting Optifast on Tuesday, so not looking forward to that, but can't wait for it at the same time. I'm very excited about it all. I’m just praying everything goes well for me. I’m sure it will.

I am excited to be starting my new life. My daughter Kasey and I, are starting a scrapbook album for my journey, so that will be good to look back on.

I know it will all go well, it's just a bit scary at the moment.

Wish me luck!

Rat adoption, Skadi, Freya and Ruby.

Hi Guys,
Well I ended up adopting three girls. Skadi, Freya and Ruby. They are one year old. They are settling in well.
Their owner, Luke dropped them off on Friday night, and was sad to see the go.
We let them settle in for a couple of days, just talking to them and patting them here and there. We put them next to our other girls, Amy and Jasmine, and they are all smelling each other through the wire. My little girls seem to be copying the bigger girl. lol.
Today (Sunday) we took everything out of the cage, and hosed it out, and gave it a good clean. I left the girls in their hammock. I didn't spray them with the water, but they kept getting into the spray. They loved it! So we bathed them, one by one. They didn't like that much. They were a but scared, but after the bath, I snuggled them in the towel, and they really enjoyed that. I gave them individual attention, and snuggles. (and treats) lol.
They come out of their hammock to see us now. It's good. They are funny to watch.
I found a lump on Skadi's neck. It restricts her head movement, but it dosn,t seem to hert her. I will have to keep an eye on her. She is the most friendliest.
