I sure am glad its raining...

Jun 08, 2007

Gee I'm glad it's raining
There's always something to be thankful for.
I'm awfully glad it's raining
Cause no one sees your tear drops when it pours.

And no one knows the thunder
Is your heartbreak in disguise,
They think the rainy nights
What put that sad look in your eyes.

Sure am glad it's raining.
The gentle rythmn soothes the pain inside.
I'm glad the stars aren't shining.
A wounded warrior needs a place to hide.

I thought I had found someone
I could count on til the end.
What they wanted was a hero,
All I needed was a friend

Gee I'm glad it's raining.
I hope the morning sun won't come up soon.
As long as it keeps raining,
No one knows my heart broke right in two.

I thought I had found someone
I could count on til the end.
What they wanted was a hero,
All I needed was a friend

Sure am glad it's raining.
I'm awfully glad it's raining

My appointment to meet my doctor is next week. I'm excited about that. But this week I have just felt so blah. Unimportant. Unnoticed. I was supposed to go out with a friend to lunch this week. The first day she didn't call and left me stranded. The next day I slept and didn't call back. Oh well. And in her myspace blog she talks about being jobless and friendless in Pikeville. Yeah, that makes me want to spend time with her. All she wants to do is drink and then me be a DD. Yargh. 
I hate being lonely. Its been almost 2 years since I even spoke to any guy. I don't want to date or go out on dates or anything. I just don't want to be lonely. Blah. I'm thinking of switching from teaching and going back to dental hygienist. That would tickle Nanny Faye to death, if I told her. Which I probably won't. I hope I get my surgery before school goes back in. Leave me love, kids.


Time for an update!

I know I should have updated ages ago, but I've got good news! My appointment to meet with Dr. Tompkins is June 14th at 2:30 pm. YAY! Hopefully it won't be too long after that date that I can get my surgery done. I really hope its before school. This Christmas I could be thin! Or on my way to thin. Can we say YAY?!?!?!?!!! I'm excited :)
Last night was my brother's gf's birthday. I made her a Spongebob cake with homemade buttercream icing. The only reason I even got a thanks at the last minute was because of Mom.  I love my Mommy :) 
Oh well...Connor is starting to walk by himself! :D
YAY!

Blippity blah blay bloo bah

Nice title, eh? Yeah. Bored.
Tomorrow is Monday and I'm hoping the doctor's office calls. And I'm hoping whatever I have leaves and I get better too. Ugh. Its not as bad as it has been. But I've been having coughing fits at night. I chose Dr. Tompkins (well that is who my family dr recommened). I'm as excited as I can get without getting so hopeful that I'll be eternally devastated if it doesn't happened. Ugh I am miserable. I've gained weight (of course). I feel like I'm not me in this body. I am not Laura, 250 lbs. That is not me. I'm suffocating in this body and I want out of this weight and nothing is working. Hopefully I'll be able to get this surgery and I'll be myself. I can only hope and pray. I've been trying to play with the baby buy I get so easily tired. And its getting annoying. 
-faceplant-
PLEASE OH PLEASE CALL TOMORROW AND GET MY APPOINTMENTS FOR MY TESTS SET UP! 

/end whiny rant.

An update folks :)

May 05, 2007

Okay kids time for an update. My mom, Connor, and I went to the seminar Thursday. It was very informative and interesting. And halfway through it, Connor wet his pants, so he just went around in a diaper and shirt, heheh. I digress, the seminar was interesting. Dr. Wheeler talked about the reasons for WLS, who should have it, the LAP BAND, Gastic Bypass (Lapro), and other things like that. I definitely know that I wanted Lapro Gastric Bypass and Dr. Wheeler confirmed it ten fold. I filled out all the papers they required. There were questions about family history, my history (medical) and things such as that. They said to put an asterik beside of the best way to contact me, and I chose both phone, mail, and email lol. I'll get contacted one way or the other hopefully. They didn't call yesterday (Friday). I suppose I was overly hopeful about that but it didn't disappoint me. Oh and I am sick. Ugh. I thought Connor was getting sick as well as he was coughing and stuff yesterday but he seems to have gotten over it. I however haven't. I've got sort of a head cold. The one upside, you ask? I can't smell Connor's dirty diapers. :-p
Anyway, my birthday is next week (May 9) and I'll be 22. I'm excited! Hopefully the people at KDMC will call on Monday and schedule me for some appointments and such. I hope my  surgery date isn't far off. I want to get this done and be ready for school in August. And just think, by Christmas, I will be thinner than I have been in a while. 
And I've been thinking about how long I've been "overweight". I remember in 6th grade weighing about 130-140. Thats when I knew I was a lot fatter than the other girls and boys. You know, I've been thinking about something else too. I was about 10 when my mother got cancer (around Dec. of 1995). I was in either 4th or 5th grade. I think thats when I really started eating for comfort and not going outside and all that. Looking back, I realize that it hit me harder than I ever wanted to admit. And of course my grandmother telling me I'm fat every time I turned around didn't help. You wouldn't believe the things that happened to me. Here's a taste: nagging, name calling, suppositories ( a lot of them), whipped with a belt, a switch (with the prickly things on it), etc. Ugh. I don't even like to think about it. But that is in the past and I shall not allow it to come to mind if I can help it. Its helped to shape me into the person I am today, mentally, physically, and emotionally. Connor will have a grandma who won't ever do things like that to him. :D
Well lets pray that they call Monday! Wish me luck!

Apr 27, 2007

These next two weeks are going to be insanely busy. Finals and all that next week, ugh. At least after my finals are over, my seminar will be here. I'm still excited. I walked everywhere today, more than I usually do. I went to Pikeville College to get a professor to sign a paper and I got lost (big campus) and everything on this campus is UP HILL. Yes, I had to walk UP HILL everywhere I went. I got lost about...4-ish times. Yeah. Up hill I go again. Not to mention I'm packing Connor around on my hip. Now my back is killed out. I'm off to take a hot soak. Bye kiddos!

HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY CONNOR!!!!

Apr 22, 2007

I'm going to try to get Barry to sign off on my observation hours tonight. Hopefully I can find the papers...lol.
I'll finish my resume and my contents pages along with title pages for each section tonight. Tomorrow I'll do my reflections and summaries along with my article 25 summary to turn in Tuesday. I should buy another folder for my 202 class in case I have to turn it in for my 201 class.
For now, I'm going to go get ready for church. Puttin' on some Cher to listen to while Connor and I get ready heheh.
Gypsies, tramps, and thieves! Woohoo!
Tomorrow I'll call for my blood test results. Wish me luck kiddos!

Blah

Apr 21, 2007

Well, the doctors office was closed yesterday, it being Hillbilly Days and all.
So I'll have to wait until Monday to get any results.
Nothing really to update on besides that.
I have a lot of work to do for my TEP prortfolio...not that bad. Gotta type up observations and reflections, get Barry to sign off on my observations, finish my resume, type my table of contents, draw the diagram of the rooms I observed in...I'm sure there's more. The one that will take the longest is probably those observations and reflections. Following closely by the resume (I have about half finished), and the table of contents and the diagrams.
Hopefully I'll get it all done this weekend. Next semester, Professor Whitaker will give me handouts that my professor in 202 didn't give me for my portfolio.
Wish me luck kids!
