A couple things...

1. Brent had his birthday on Thursday. As it sometimes is when we get older, it wasn't a huge blowout celebration but I think he had a good day. I made him a really yummy veggie omelet for breakfast with mushrooms, garlic, onions and spinich. He opened the few gifts we gave him then he was off to work! He came and worked with me at Power and we were able to eat some sushi for lunch together.

Later I went to his spinning class for the first time (if you don't count the time I went and lasted only 15 minutes). He's been wanting me to go for years now and I've always been apprehensive because I know how hard his class is. I have to say, I actually liked it and even made it through the whole class without passing out! I was a little wimpy when it came to doing all the climbs and standing but I felt like I got a great workout and might even do it again sometime.

After class a few family and friends came over for some cake and ice cream. I made german chocolate cake since it's his favorite. I had some issues with it this time but I don't think anybody noticed that the cake totally fell apart when I turned it over onto the wax paper after it came out of the oven. Or that a whole pan kind of cooked too much. I think once you put that yummy icing on the cake, you don't notice much!

I am very aware how lucky I am to have such a wonderful husband. It was so nice to be able to spend the whole day with him. Even if it was all about work, we still had a great time together.

2. I got a call from the doctor's office earlier this week that they were going to have to cancel my surgery that was scheduled for tomorrow. They said there is a nationwide recall on a piece of the surgical equipment they have to use for my surgery. I could do the abdominal hysterectomy but I really don't want to be down for six weeks when I could have a recovery of only two weeks with the LAVH surgery. We now have it on hold until the part is fixed. Nice that I don't have to worry about surgery tomorrow but a bummer because I'm just ready to be done with this thing.
