Enjoy your picnic and eat what feels right!
Good morning to you, sweet Linda. I hope that your Saturday is good....or at least better than the last few days have been. I am keeping you in my prayers as always. I am glad that Kathy might be able to help you. At least it is a try to get some of what you want back. I wish I could help you but we all know that I am computer illiterate for sure. I am amazed at the little bit of stuff that I can do. I know that when you talk about getting some of your pictures back I wonder to myself how you would do that.
Bill got me all upset and in a mood that wasn't good either. He got his in the end though. I always told him that life was a ***** and then he married one and he use to laugh...he isn't laughing anymore let me clue you in on that one. You would think after all these years he would know but NOT HIM! Bet he knows now. I took a car load of stuff to Goodwill and a lot of it was what he didn't want to get rid of...but he never thought of that when he took a bunch of my stuff there did he? No...so what goes around comes around and he got his in the end. His 2 pool sticks and his surround sound is gone...along with some other stuff....some in the garbage like mine was too....oh well. Yesterday was not a good day here at all. I don't think today is going to be either just because he ****** me off big time!
Food yesterday wasn't the best either. I didn't eat much and some of what I did wasn't a good choice either. Here it goes......
B: nothing
L: a chicken and cheese quasadilla (sp)
D: a package of 2 buddy bars or whatever they are called...but they are not something I should be eating!
S: grape tomatoes during the day...they are almost gone too...darn it!
I will make today a better day food wise. I am only hurting myself when I do dinner like I did. I made myself sick to my stomach with it anyway...and after I ate it wished that I hadn't. Isn't hind sight 20/20?
I am sending you love and hugs and prayers are being said for you as you already know...I hope that you know that if you need to chat just call me and I am here for you. I hope that things are going better for you...or at least you are feeling a bit better on how things are going in your life.
Going with DS and DIL to breakfast this morning for her birthday.
I'm in a funk..........talked to ex-DIL who is a Doctor last evening, and she asked me if my surgeon told me this drop foot problem might NEVER GET ANY BETTER??? OMG, now I'm really worried. I think it is some better myself, but guess I'll just have to wait and see. All this because of a simple hip revision surgery.
We're in for storms here today and hot and humid -- 90's tomorrow.
I will be staying inside with the a/c, except to go to church, where we do have a/c too.
I'm off for some green decaf tea now. Have a good Saturday.

Done! Your Ticker:
Believe it or not, after surgery it's really hard to get your calories and everything in. I can't believe I have to remind myself to eat something.
Today I'm having two scrambled eggs with a scoop of beneprotein. I don't know if I'll be able to finish both eggs, but if I take my time, maybe over the next hour I'll get them down. I've learned to eat cold food. Nothing stays hot long enough!
I'm praying you find the preop diet easy to follow and don't have any problems.

Can you believe I'm doing preop? It seems like just yesterday you were going into surgery and now it's difficult for you to eat - lol - I can't wait. I just had the second protein shake, but added some instant coffee to it, which wasn't bad.
A tip to share with you. The bariactric nurse suggested "powdered egg whites" found in the baking section for extra protein postop. You may find that helpful too.
I'm so glad you're doing well. My inspiration!!!! LOL Have a great Saturday!
