WHATS HAPPENING FRIDAY

People this is going to be short and sweet. I want to ge*****ped and put up for Friday morning tonight . I just got off work and I don’t know why but I am so sick at my stomach. I had some tuna salad for supper but only about 2 tbls and that isnt enough to cause dumping but that is sort of how I feel. Im shaky and weak and nauseated . my heart is pounding too . don’t know what is going on but I don’t like it.

 

Anyway didn’t do much today in fact very little because I got up late and then had to be ready to leave the house at 11:30 for work so decided Thursday was a lazy day lol

 

ELIZABETH: sorry that things are going bad at work again. Does it ever change? Wish you could find something else so you wouldn’t have to deal.

I haven’t even checked my power ball numbers. I guess I better do that huh? Maybe I won 54 million. Boy wouldn’t that be something?

 

MELISSA: Well how did your doctors appt go? Hope all is well and that you are healing well.

Hey that is neat that you are your doctors prize patient. Lol and that everyone knows all about you . Maybe you will wind up on tv or something , Never know

 

My test all were fine. I knew with all the prayers that were being said that it would be ok. Thanks for asking .

 

JANET: am so glad that you all had a great trip. And that you have your daughter set up on campus and all. Will she be in a dorm or what? Will her new husband then be able to go see her at times or what?

 

Thanks for the prayers. They were appreciated but I knew that with so many praying that it would be ok too. I think you all are stuck with Mama J for a long time to come lol

Maybe too long . I love all of you too.

 

Sounds like you were gone for a week all that you did on your trip. That was a lot for 2 days lol No wonder you all were so tired and worn out. My back gets that way even now since I have lost weight. If we ride a long way. The knots in it are bad sometimes but Joe can usually get the most of them out. and when he cant I go to my chiropractor

And that helps, most of the time. But not always.

Take care of your self.

 

CHELLE: I too was wondering about this delicious salad. What was it and how was it made?

Im so proud of you that you quit those nasty cigs. They will kill you and since you are doing surgery for your health doesn’t it make sence to give them up?

Hang in there it will all be worth it.

  

LOVE AND JOY AND PEACE ABOUNDS

JAN

  

Jan... I'm sorry that you are feeling so poorly right now.  Your symptoms describe what I feel like when I am battling low blood sugar.  It is just the most gawdawful feeling....  and you can't seem to lie down and make it feel better.. you just can't get away from it.   If that is not what you are facing, it could be dumping or just you getting a tummy bug or other upset.  Please take care of yourself and I hope that tomorrow will be a better day ((hugs)) As for the job situation.  The "hens" just cycle...  some days they are less bothersome but lately they have been uber cliquey and it has worn on me something fierce.  I am dealing with a super increased workload that has not slacked up in several weeks so I have less time to deal with their pettiness and less time to do THEIR work so that peeves them off all the more..  I guess one could call it a waterfall effect.  argghhhhhhh  I just grow so weary of it all..... Thanks for thinking of me though!!! It is incredibly late.... almost 12:30 a.m. and I must get to bed.... I'm bushed... Peace and blessings!!! Elizabeth-------->

Good monring all!! Yesturday was my last day of work for four weeks and everyone at work was in tiers hugging me good by. So of course I cried too. We are a very close team!  My bosses sister lives in Columbia so she has her up to no good to get me a suprise while I am in the hospital. I've also already been recieving cards in the mail and one even made me cry. Tiers of joy.  Today I get to relaxe around the house tell about 1ish then I head to Topeka for my last pre-op apt with my PCP. I think I'll see if he wants to go ahead and give me my B-12 shot now. We'll see how much it is. Need to see which rout is cheapest.  What do you all do for your B-12?? Chelle- I hope i get to meet you tuesday.  Jan-Get to feeling better and let us know how you are doing.  Susan- I am so exsited!!

Good Morning Everyone:       No, rain here for us yesterday!!! Thank you Lord!!! Our lakes, ponds, rivers, yards are so flooded that were over flowing here with all the rain that we have had lately. Glad it didnt rain so it will give everything time to soak up. It was hot and muggy tho.      Yesterday went to my OB/GYN and he looked at my incesion and had his nurse repack it. Terry is packing it every day except for the days I go to him. He did say that it was looking good and that there was no infection in it. Praise GOD!! I go back to him Tuesday morning for another internal altrasound. At my request due to all the pain that I am having in my female region. To see if they are still growing or why I am in so much pain. When I go back to see him on Tuesday he is going to refure me to a specialist in Columbia. I am okay with this since I know the Columbia area so well. Plus I can run the doc by Dr. Scott to get his opponion on what he thinks of him or her.    Afterwards we went to Wal Mart to get some roofing tar, went over to the old house and put it on. I actually climbs the ladder. Stop and got something to drink. And came home. Terry took dad to get his hair cut and to run a few errands. I stayed in the chiar in my PJ's with a heating pad on my back and lower stomach.    Today Terry is taken the lawnmower across town. Then were getting dad up and cleaned up to take him to lunch in Joplin for Father's Day. Since he uses a walker were going to go on a slow day to beat the rush on Saturday or Sunday.     Michelle: I got your email. I dont know why it kept coming back to you?? But anyways I was glad to hear back from you and I will be dropping you an email today. Jan: Hope your feeling better soon. I know it isnt any fun when you dont feel good. Susan: Cant wait for you to come our way now. Had a blast and was so happy to ge the chance to see you again. Looking foward to the reunion!!! Rachael: How did J's appt go?? Cant they figure out what is going on with her?? Janet: Sorry I didnt call last night. Wasnt feeling well. I'm sure I will be talking to you today. Pam: How are you doing sweetie??? Hopeing that you will be at the support meeting on the 25th. Angie: Where have you disappeared too??? Congrats to all our new losers and those that will be joining the Losers Bench on Monday!!!!! I pray everyone has a blessed day. God Bless Mel

Hi Jan and OH Peeps~ Well, I am so glad yesterday is over-and praying that today will be a much better day! If not, I may just crawl in bed, get under the covers-and stay there until tomorrow!! Jan-I am so sorry you arent feeling well. Did you feel alright on Tues and Weds? One of your other posts said you had some episode on Monday-so I just want to make sure you didnt have a touch of something and just dont realize it.  Also-I dont know about others-but I know for me, "I" CAN dump off of just one or two bites-so you just may have-cause 2 TBSP doesnt sound like much-but to our little pouches, it is-ya know? Certainly enough to make us dump-I would think....Anyway-I am praying for you and hope your back to your *****y ol" self soon!! Yes, Megans all taken care of-and we have appealed for her to get permission to live off campus since she will be married...we got an application to an apartment while up there-and we toured it-and I liked it-and the staff, I feel very good about her living there-and its almost $500 cheaper than living on campus-which is good for all our pocketbooks.  As soon as the bankruptcy is over and done with-I will be able to put some money on a card for her each month or pay something for her. Yes, Aaron will be able to go up, no matter if she is in the dorms OR the apartment, and is allowed to stay for 3 nights-tops-and she must be present with him wherever he goes in either situation. Thats good-and with the way it goes-IF say he wants to stay a week and they "think" they will get away with it-its like the dean of Stephens said-with that many women in one place-no one gets away with anything really-there is ALWAYS someone ready and wiling to "talk"...LOL Did you ever get Julias address? IF not, I do have it-and I will email it to you. I sure miss seeing her on here-and would you please make sure she gets the phone number and all the info on the reunion? That would be great. Yesterday was just awful-I could not relieve the pain, no matter what-and I had spasms that were so bad it would make me leave the couch, heat or ice-whatever...it was horrible. I have never had that much pain and for about 24 hrs, I thought about going to the emergency room so they could give me a shot (although I would have preferred a direct IV drip) of pain meds-because nothing I had was working! I looked like hammered hell by the time Mike got home from work. I think he felt sorry for me, but all I wanted was to see if he could get the knots out or something-even asked him to take me out to the woods and knock me in the head with something-LOL...I laid on the livingroom floor with an icy gel pack, directly under the small of my back-laid flat on my bac****il my back would be numb...(before now-my boobs would have suffocated me-wow moment-LOL) anyhow-then I would get off the floor when it would start to hurt again and use the heat-and back and forth for 6 hours. My daughter decided to have another episode yesterday when she didnt get her way about something-and it was as bad, if not worse than last time-but this time, I didnt even raise my voice to her-just told her to put her phone on the entertainment center and go to her room...she said NO! I just looked at her, as calm as a cucumber and said-sissy-if I have to get up, things are going to turn ugly around here. One, (breathe) Two (breathe, breathe) Three (shes not moving-**** now I have to get up!) So, I got up-she said-I hate you, and I said-well, good, then I guess I am doing my job....she said the only reason she decided she wanted to stay here (told me on Monday she decided to stay here instead of moving to Vegas and asked if that was ok-told her yes, of course) was that her boyfriend told her that he didnt want to go out exclusively because he would get attached to her and then she was moving away and so thats why she decided to stay-so she informs me yesterday that between her and the little liar (boyfriend) are saving their money and they are going to court when she turns 17 and she is going to be amancipated and she is going to "show me".....I flat out told her that I am more powerful than any judge, any court or any boy, ANY DAY...flat out told her that the only thing more powerful than me, is God-when it comes to my kids.  MAN....I called her dad and he told me of the trip and how she was with everybody and how more than one person made a comment about how prissy and snotty she was-geez-I didnt raise her like this. None of the other kids are like that. She said some other awful things too-and I am calling today to see if they have a tough love program or something. Her biological dad told me yesterday that he has been really sick all week and that whenever she has called him (pretty much every day) that he has been sick and thinks thats the reason she may be acting like this. I dont know what it is-but I am tired of it at any rate-so she is going to boot camp, as soon as I find one for her.  Her little boyfriend and I are going to have a chat as well-because he keeps telling her that she can go and stay with any of his friends. They are all over 18 and we all know what that means....So, I think its time for a little intervention and the little dink is going to know if he talks my daughter into running away-he is going to be in some deep crap! PLEASE PRAY FOR THIS SITUATION...We need it. Thanks. Mike got a service award yesterday for his dedication and loyalty at his job. He has been there 11 years-and they apologized for being a year late-LOL...The plaque is very very nice-have to find a shelf for it so Mike can put it above his desk at work-Monday they are taking pictures and it will be in the office on the wall with his award and the owners-Its so nice and I was so happy that they acknowledged to everyone how much he has given to them and what a good manager he has been to them for 11 years plus. Without him, obviously, they couldnt stay open, they just cant get good help. Its been 5 years since Mike has been able to even take a real vacation and had help in there he could trust to do their work when he is gone-so another summer without real time off-Im surprised he hasnt had a nervous breakdown yet. He is suppose to go to a weeks training in Dallas or Chicago-but he cant even do that right now! My parents took the kids after Mike got home from work for the night, so I could try and get some rest and do the online class for the bankruptcy. Mike drove and I went with them since it didnt matter what I did...we stopped at Food 4 Less, came home, got in the pool for a bit, and started the class. I have some paperwork to finish today and then some more stuff to finish for the attny (paperwork wise) and we should be all done by next Friday...Thank you, God. It was after 10 pm before my back let up any....I went to bed at midnite and didnt wake up once during the night. I dont think I could have-LOL... **Chelle-I sure hope you talk your guy into coming, if even for the day. Maybe someone lives close enough you can ride with someone and split the cost?  We would sure love to see ya!! **Erin-thanks for the opportunity to be your angel...I didnt realize you didnt have one. I will be waiting to hear from your mom...Susans surgery is within 1/2 hour of yours-so I will be getting 2 calls...I will post as soon as I hear from her-and then she can post later about your room number and such-but at least I can post that your surgery was successful and your doing good! We will all be praying for you. Good luck sweety. **Tammy-Congrats on the weight loss. Im so happy for you. I had been so down on myself for not losing more weight by the 6 month mark-no matter what anyone said to me-and it was inspirational to me as well-because when I saw you Weds-I knew I was where you are just 6 short months ago-and yeah-I may be flatter-like you said-have to work on the wide side a bit yet-but Im okay with that-Im not nearly as wide as I used to be-so I have to say, even if I stay this size-I am happy-I will take wide and happy any day over what I was before inside. I dont feel wide-just feel happy.  I hope you can utelize some of the clothes for a month or two-prob wont fit you too long since you are kicking butt!!

**Sherr-went and looked at the pic of your guy...he does look like something out of a cowboy magazine~does he wear those lather chaps? LOL-I love those on a guy!! I cant get Mike to wear them!! LOL...Does he wear his boots and hat when he comes up? Has he offered to take you horseback riding? How romantic would that be to go out and ride with your man? I bet your back would pay for that one though! You could always play cowboy and indians-LOL...I hope it all goes well-and he must be special to you if you talked to Dylan about him-does he have any kids? How far is the drive to his place? Is it farther than Jonesboro? Im praying for you-and I am hoping he treats you decent-you deserve it, thats for sure!! **Rachael-it was good to talk to you Weds! Wish we would have had time to meet you somewhere since we were so close to Fort Leonardwood. Would have loved to give you a big ol hug. Take care and hope the kids are well and you too-miss ya. **Mel-I love you and hope you have a much better day than yesterday and that you are pain free today-Hello-and I LOVE YA. **Susan-I hope you are having a good day-Im glad we had a chance to talk yesterday~hope all is well-I will talk to you again before surgery-Love  ya **Has anyone heard from Deb M, Brenda, Andrew or any of our other missing in actions? I sure hope they are okay-I hate it when I dont hear from them...Brendas hubby was sick-but I thought she would be back by now-so I am hoping and praying he is okay and Deb hadnt been feeling good-so I hope she is okay-I miss her posting too!!  IF any of you are reading this- PLEASE just post that your alright so we wont worry,ok?

Well, I am getting off here and trying to get my paperwork done and get some chores started. May mow today if Meg brings over the lawnmower-went to get on the riding one this morning and the deck is gone-called Mikes mom and dad-and they took it off to get it repaired...I cant put it back on myself-and dad only has one leg-so he cant do it either-together we arent even one full person-LOL....I hope you all have a wonderful Friday and I will see ya tomorrow. All my love and prayers-Janet

Mornin on ya OH peeps and Jan Well todays another beautiful day and ONE day closer to my new life. I think it's gonna get hot today. I am on day four of no smoking and I don't feel anymore stressed han I did when I smoked. I think the prayer helped alot. DBF thinks I should give up a new habit every week becuase he says that means every week I'll get sweeter than I already am. LOL I don't know whether to take that as a compliment or something else hehehe. He had originally thought he was going to have to get a room when I quit smoking but said it has been totally different than what he had thought it would be. There have been a few times I have reached for my cigarettes but it was more ot of habit than anything. I haven't had any headaches or anything. Maybe the lord has delivered me from cigarettes wouldn't that be wonderful.  I think also another thing that has helped me is, I am not looking at it as I will NEVER be able to smoke again. I am just telling myself to get through the surgery and then see how I will feel. Took DD to her first appt yesterday. She looked so small laying there on that table. Just thinking about all the changes she has to make overwhelms me. I am sure she can do it but I wanted so much better for her than I did myself. She is so beautiful and seems as if she is so innocent, now I know she;s not that innocent but I find myself looking at her and wondering if she really knows what she's in for. Today, we go for her first ultrasound. I will step in later and let y'all know what they say. Susan, if it's okay I would love to come and see you tues. I have a nut appt in Columbia and if I have time would love to stop by and say hi. Jan, I hope you're are feeling better maybe you just have a bug. as much as you try to get done in one day you might just need to take a day and relax. Mel, hope everything is going okay and I'll be looking forward to that email today. Janet, I would love to come also maybe I should go ahead and  make reservations and cancel if I need to. I hope today finds everyone doing well and for those who aren't please get better. I will be praying for everyone. Take Care Hugs Chelle

Good evening Missouri.... Sorry didn't get to post this morning but I was extremely busy at work today....had alot going on with the soldiers not to mention my daughter....I had to take Jaiden to Springfield yesterday and they said she had yet another ear infection, so she is on antibiotics once again.  Also they decided to send her to a EENT to talk to about getting tubes in her ears.  My son had to have them when he was her age also...Well we got back from Springfield around 2pm yesterday and I could not get her fever down for nothing so at 1045pm last night we were in the ER at Rolla, trying to make sure she was not going to dehydrate with the fever...Her and I got back to the house at around 2am this morning and by the time I got in bed my alarm went off about 45 minutes later.....so needless to say I went to work on no sleep...then around 10am I got a call from the daycare and my husband and he had to go pick her up, so once again I left work went and bought some popsicles and more tylenol and motrin and dropped them off to him and Jaiden and off to work I went again....worked until almost 330pm, came home and took about an hour and half nap and now I am trying to get Jaiden to go to sleep so I can hopefully go to sleep for the night...I have to go to my parents house tomorrow because they are having a huge yard sale and I have to be in charge of the money.... Got a lot going on this weekend....but oh well, I can hang....sleep is just a luxury anymore for me....hehe....hopefully I will get a little nap in on Sunday after church.... Hope everyone had a wonderfully blessed day....May God bless each and everyone of you two fold this weekend and always.... God bless Rachael
