Good Morning. My son's dog looks worried all the time..

...well of course he does he's a puggle and they have silly wrinkles over their eyes. I just look at him and think he's worried Son#1 has abandoned him :(  I know it's crazy but that's what he looks like. lol  Anyway, I think they're bringing the new baby home today so the puggle will get his real mom and dad back soon. Yeah!

It's supposed to be a beautiful day here and I hope to get outside to walk several times. Really really need to get my walking routine back on track. The 4th and 5th post-op years are really a dangerous time for weight regain and I must increase my metabolism to counter the affects of my WLS's age (reduced malabsorption and sleeve stretch).  Plus, I was looking at my carb intake and need to rein it in. Last night was likely off the charts as I had gluten free spaghetti - as I told Son#2, gluten free doesn't equal carb free.

What's on your minds today? Got any goals to set or plans to put in place?

Happy Friday, y'all!

I have big news -Today,  I have a meeting with HR to let them know officially that I'm retiring at the end of the year.  The company continues to have unsustainable expectations for workload, and pointing fingers whereever possible, so it's time for me to leave.  This is the biggest thing I can do for my health.

Eliza, I retired a year ago which finally gave me the time I needed to focus on "me".  I began my journey to have RNY surgery and now I focus on my diet and exercise.  Oh, and anything else that's fun!
It's a great feeling to stay at home and have your retirement check sent to you in the mail.
You'll love it!

Still going to be raining off and on here today.  Rained a lot last night or at least it sounded like it.  Phone rang at 6:30, Lowes telling us they would be here between 8-10 to deliver the new dryer, mine died.  So instead of leisurely hanging out, I guess I better get some clothes on.

Eliza, great news on the retirement.  It's always nice when it is our idea, not theirs.  Hope your insurance will follow you. 

So more work on insurance today.  I'd love to work on my neices baby quilt but am waiting on fabric.  Hopefully it will come today.

Awww - poor Puggle... I hope he gets his mommy and daddy back soon!

Gina - I've got these VERY annoying ads scrolling vertically on the left hand side of my screen, blocking part of my posts.  I know you complained about the ads awhile ago - did you ever get rid of them?  If so, how?

Saw my son last night for awhile - he's heading back to Houston today :( 

Took half the day off and went into town yesterday to go to the chiropractor.  I've pulled my back.  Usually it feels better within a day or so but it hasn't cooperated...

I hear ya about the exercise.  I've got the elliptical in the garage now.  I need to get on it.

Have a good day!

ETA:  NEVER MIND!!  I figured out that annoying ad thing!!

Switched to Firefox and ran a couple of anti spam programs and deleted cookies. {sigh} What a PITA.

TGIF!!

I'm sure he can't wait to see his mom and dad.  Little Willie is totally white around his mouth and he is only 5 years old - he worries so much!!  It was raining last night and he was pacing the floor - everything makes him so nervous....

I really need to get back to my exercise routine.  I have not done anything in over a week.  There are a couple of 5K's I would like to do but have not registered or prepared!!

DGD's are both coming today to spend the weekend!!  I'll probably be exhausted by Sunday afternoon, but can't wait to pick them up today.  We are suppose to camp out in the living room floor tonight - they love to do this.

Hope everyone has a great day today.

Linda
