Good Monday morning Janine and Cali!

I'm up and at em way too early! DH car is acting really weird so I got up and took him to work. Instead of heading home and back to bed, I decided to kick it at the Starbubucks until time to go to work. It's not so bad really as it's giving me some time to catch up on a couple things. I'm gonna be sleepy tonight for sure!

Hope everyone has a great day!
Sue

Morning Janine and Cali . . . and Happy Birthday Miss MoMo!  Sounds like Miss Barb is Lovin' the Island . . . that is where I was last October . . . the only thing I didn't do that I wish I had was get in the outrigger canoe and ride the surf . . . but didn't see it until the day we were leaving . . . duh me!

Went to the fair . . . haven't been in several years . . . and had a great time.  Walked up to my DIL's parents who I haven't seen since Myles was born 2-1/2 years ago . .. she look at me and says "hello"  . . . and I replied the same . . . and then just stood there for a minute . . . and all of a sudden it hit her who I was . . . and she lets out this shreek . . . lol I LOVED it!  Her husband was helping someone at the booth and looked up, but didn't get the connection until he was done .  . OK . . . I guess there have been some changes!  Wahoo!

I got some shea butter that is supposed to work wonders on exema and every other thing in the world . . . so I put it on (was wearing sandals) . . . and was able to walk around all day . . . without my usual issues . . . yea!  I just walked every inch of that place (except the noisey fun zone) . . . and while I only logged about 6 miles . . . I was moving the whole time and only sat down for 10 minutes twice in 6 hours . . . so I figure I was building endurance, right?  LOL  I did eat before I went and can proudly say I bought NO food there . . . unless you count the mocha latte?  Had a fun day . . . but it does get so dang crowded!

So today is back to the hoe-hum .  . my daughter is leaving on her roadtrip with her friend to South Dakota on Saturday and she flies back to LAX on the 1st . . . so she is getting excited .  . . it will be good for her to get out of Dodge for awhile!  The son is waiting on the mailman to get his physical paperwork . . . to get that job and move on!!!

Have a great day everyone . . . sorry I was rambling . . . have a good one!

Well, I'm pretty much recovered from the Saturday Night Animals Freeze out. The wind came up and my teeth were chattering so bad...took all night to get me warm. Flannel, sweats, socks AND the electric blanket! 

Then Sunday morning I had a banana in my oatmeal. I don't know what posesses me to get those stupid things. I mean they are on sale but why do I eat them? Hypoglycemic reaction. So I wasn't motivated to go to church. Stayed home and vegged.

Vegged: made curtains, two loads of laundry, planted sunflowers, cleaned kitchen and bathrooms..sigh. I can't sit still! 

Today I have an eye doctor's appointment. My arms aren't long enough anymore. I'm squinting and turned to my right to read as I type...Yup, need new reading glasses and can't see the television across the room either...Getting old SUCKS! I'm missing a workmate's birthday celebration today but that's okay...cake and me, aint buddies.

My friend Kathy is going in for her WLS on Thursday. Same surgeon and hospital as me. She's nervous and excited. I'm nervous for her too...I gave her all my books and all my phone numbers. She has plenty of support but I'm there if she needs me.

Tuesday is the local support group meeting and Saturday is the local one in my town..Lots to do.
So this week is waiting...I better get moving. Have a good one everyone..I'm also gonna try and get around the board more.
Yes, RNY worked for me but it also requires a lot of work from me!

Good Morning All!  Thanks Janine........... We had a fantastic day at the lake yesterday.  I'm a bunch pink but this too shall pass!  We had such a good time.  I was sitting there in my chair thinking it was a good saturday and would be so nice to sleep in tomorrow.............. then remembered it was actually Sunday because I lost my Saturday to emergency overtime.  Grrrr. 

It'll be ok.  I'm on vacation all next week so I can make it through this week!  Yeee Haw!  Camping in Fort Bragg

Off to work I go.  For some reason I woke up this morning at 5:15.......... that's just nuts.

Be good everyone, drink your water, take your vitamins and remember to laugh out loud at least once today!

Good Morning Janine and Cali,

Saturday I had a memorial sevice.  Loss one of my high school sweet hearts to diabetes related illnesses.  Sunday was more of a veg out day for us.  I have very little energy now and I am getting a lot of bruises.  I think I am due for another vitamin scan and I definitely need to see what is going on.  I did go see the gastroenterologist on friday about the pain I have with the first two bite of food every morning.  I am schduled to have an endoscopy on the August 7th.  He could have done it on the last day of school but I wasn't cool with missing the last day and of course after that he is going out of town.  

Just realized that my 4 year surgiversary was yesterday.  Hmmmm.

Everyone enjoy the day
