My big day is tomorrow. Won't know what time until after 5:00 tonight. I am surprisingly calm this afternoon. I was feeling pretty anxious over the weekend. I ran some errands this morning, got a new pair of slippers for the hospital, and picked a few items I will need when I come home. Just kind of relaxing today.

I am on clear liquids only today and doing pretty good with that as well. I guess all of the preparations and following the program so far is really helping.

I am ready to claim my seat on the loser's bench!
