I know it is only a week but I am a little bummed out.
I was so excited to have a podmate.

You've probably mentioned it before, but how did your 6 month diet get stretched to 13 months?!?!?
I have no idea! Just getting things together, I suppose.

Yikes! It took my surgeon's office 2 weeks to "get things together" after my last appointment, and I was nearly ready to strangle them over that delay of 2 weeks, lol. You are a VERY patient person.
