Getting excited in In the Kingdom of Suzu

Today it is 5 weeks til we go to Barbuda 😎☀️✈️⛱and I am feeling quite excited today. My cousin and his wife are coming over tonight to discuss final plans and what we want to bring food wise and have ordered. We can get most things there, but we like to bring our own coffee, ☕️snacks, 🧀, maybe a pasta or rice mix because we like our brands and it is cheaper to bring from home. I had picked out my clothes a few weeks ago and they fit and I am tempted to try them again but won’t until two weeks before. One reason is that I am still wearing that binder from the fat grafting so it makes things a bit bulky. I must say tho that with this fat grafting, my stomach has NEVER looked this flat—WOW!

Other exciting news is that my oldest GD, PrincessE who is 13 and a gifted musician, is going to be playing her violin 🎻at a wedding! My daughter, who is a photographer 📷 is doing a wedding today. She had posted a video of PrincessE on FB playing the violin. The bride-to-be saw it and asked if PrincessE would play for her! It is a very small wedding, at the bride’s apartment and only about 20 to 30 people. At first PrincessE was not going to do it but she changed her mind. She will be behind a screen and my SS will also be there to ease her jitters. I am so proud of her.

Not so exciting news tho is that I have had a lot of pain in my knees, especially the one that DID NOT have the surgery. The pain was so bad I could hardly walk😩😩. I did ice them, which helped some and I started wearing the braces again. I do know that the anastrozole that I take can cause knee pain. I am seriously thinking of trying acupuncture to see if it will alleviate some of the pain. I have started taking some supplements but it takes a few weeks til those things kick in, if they work. Oh well, I will manage and i only have to take the anastrozole 4 more years🤗🤗🤗🤗.
