Topic: Thrifty Thursday Roll Call
Hi all,
Well, looks like we may be in for a little weather this weekend. I hope all you on the coast will take head to any warnings.
Today I finish unpacking, I think. I am finding that I don't have the room here like I had in the other house. Finding places for everything is a challenge. I also found my school books so I need to tackle them again and get through this course.
I have a job! I will be an Installer/Merchandiser for Hallmark. I will travel all around Durham and service WalMart stores. I hope I can do this. My hands aren't what they used to be. I think the hardest part is going to be keeping track of my time. Talk about micro management of every second. Yikes! At least I will finally have some money coming in.

Topic: RE: Hey
Welcome Hattie! Do check out the sleeve forum for more info about that. I had the RNY so I don't have much advice to give. I was orignally told the sleeve would be best but my insurance didn't cover it so I changed to RNY. I'm happy with the surgery I had, though.
Will you be coming down to Duke for your appointments or are you going somewhere else?

I'm still sick today and getting a little better. I almost thought about calling the doctor but I'm getting better and I think the bad part is just about over now. My hope of losing some weight while sick isn't happening for some reason! LOL! I'm scheduled to work this weekend. I hope #1 I'm feeling ok enough to work and #2 that the weather doesn't get in the way of me getting to work! Anyone else out here in the east? Some of the island and beach towns are asking people to leave.
