T-2 hours until I start taking the horse pills for my second colonoscopy. I am trying to keep to myself as I can feel the creeping crankiness. I am feeling anti-social.
I survived my first colonoscopy three years ago. As I reread the post I wrote at the time I was under a lot of stress in a lot of different directions. My life has changed a lot since them. I'm no longer working and COVID has faded (though I still anticipate another pandemic), but the new presidency is disrupting life globally. I also went to work that day and even attended a virtual board meeting that night. I am glad I don't have to put up such a front this time around.
After a week of eating a low res diet, and 13 hours of a liquid diet, I am starving. I know this is the season most major religions include fasting in their practices, but it is not one I have included.
Funny stories about colonoscopies...
1) Last night we saw SMASH. There are a couple of lines about one of the characters getting a colonoscopy.
2) Today's latest post from The Holderness Family is about Penn, the husband, getting his first one.
I'm nervous about the actual procedure. The prep is what the prep is.
Mostly, though, I'm ready for this to be over and be able to return to eating.
