So Many changes in so little time...

I have been a little to busy in life to even sit down and type this up date!

Feb 09-

Been busy, worried about the city, having time off work. Why you ask? Oh were having a flood in Fargo ND/Moorhead MN area. Things are pretty much closed down. Toss in a blizzard like mess on top of flood waters and you have a pretty cocktail.NOT.

 All I can say is this was the month of Easter, My Daughter and part of her family drove here and had Easter day with us. It was you typical Holiday, foods cooking,way to many sweets for others to enjoy. For the first year in many I had cooked and colored Hard boiled eggs. Prior years I skipped this as I was allergic to eggs but loved them! I made everyone suffer. If I can't have eggs NO one can have them LOL. Since bypass I am no longer allergic to eggs, what a great thing! What ever they did in surgery corrected this little hurdle for me!! I continue to drop weight/inches. The process is a bit slow. I am almost to the doctors goal.

 We are still not into spring here in Fargo ND. We are not sure if it will ever come. We get a nice day here and there and poof back into fall/winter mode.  It will most likely go right to summer soon. May has brought in a few changes so far, I was graced with a visit from my 3rd born child and my Mom over Mothers Day weekend. They had not seen me since at least last summer-before I had by pass. My Mother did not know who I was and said your not the Kelly I know. Later she said I reminded her of someone else. That eve she said I looked like HER mother in the early years. Maybe I do-who knows. I am comfortable in my skin and that is all I worry about. We had a nice visit. That weekend also marked the calender of my FIRST ever 5K (3 miles) race.  Got together with a gal from support group and a lady from work along with thousands of others and set off to make a new goal. Said all along I was WALKING the race- I am not a runner in any shape or form. Walking is what we did,at a fast pace LOL. One of us had a nifty watch that tracked how fast we were making strides etc... (thanks Steph). Now mind you I am a people watcher. I was talking and walking and watching and... well yeah dropping back from the group. Steph would all of a sudden say "Should we catch up" and away we would trot LOL to catch up. This happened several times. Fun times were had. My finish time was 50:38, Placed 160/204 in my division. We were not dead last! Way to go! People were stopping me and saying how good I looked etc... You see I had a shirt made up with my FAT pic on it and it read Never again! If anyone from my area seen me and gave me kind words-I thank you. I do not do good with faces out of context and might of just nodded and said thanks. The first of this Month I made the doctors goal of 150. I am now at 147, working towards my goal. One ore thing I did this month was I rode my bike! Yeah outside and away LOL, this was a first for me in like 3 or 4 yrs. Look out world I have broke loose!

I guess this about catches things up and life goes on. School is done in 9 days and I start my 3 months of leisure. Yeah right- I can't stand having time off. I am working the camp-a-day program for 6 weeks with the special ed kids. I am also thinking of going back to my old employer for on call hours to get in some extra time/money. Like I said life is busy.


Will try and post a couple pictures.
