New Goals

Jun 01, 2014

I deleted my first ticker, my goal was 100 lbs to lose.  It said goal reached, it was just my first goal! 

My new goal is 150lbs. 27 lbs to go.  

Ultimately, I think 135 is my most memorable high school weigh weight.  Could I do that again?  We shall see!

How to insert Pics!

May 13, 2014

Ok, inserting pics.  It's such a cluster on this site.  I will try to explain.  Cuz I agree with Anny - I like to see pics of everyone!

1. Click on My OH and Photos

2. Click on Photos

3. Click on Upload

4. Upload the photos

5. Click on back to albums

6. Once you get to the page where it shows one small pic and the choices below the photo are upload / organize / settings, then just click on the small photo

7. This will bring up a page with all of your pics you have uploaded

8.  IMPORTANT!!!  Now, open a new tab or new window and go to this site and go to the post where you want to add a pic

9. On the first tab, highlight the picture you want to insert and do control-C to copy the pic

10. ON the second tab, in the post, click and do control-V to paste the pic

I have no idea why it has to be done in two tabs, it's the most archaic process ever.  But this should work!

Day 3 Post Op

Oct 18, 2013

3 days post op today.  I came home and napped!  I was chilly all afternoon, DH was sweating as he ran about taking care of me and getting ready for church.  2 grand babies came to tuck me in bed as they all left for church!    I bruise very very easily and difficult to stick for blood or IV.  I believe heparin didn't help this, my arms are a bruised mess.  The IV for surgery ended up in my left muscle about 4 inches down from my shoulder.  When I seen my surgeon on Wednesday I asked him who I slugged, he mentioned wrestling me for a vein.  Dr. Boynton was wonderful.      So far so good here.  No problem here with a natural BM after a cup of coffee.  Everything is progressing well so far,  I have to attempt 40 ozs today!  Between protein shakes, water & broth.     I'm not remotely hungry or interested on food.     The goal is:  To put in my body enough to keep me strong, functional & healthy.     Sent from JLS iPhone

The night before I had a dream about being in the hospital.  October's a very busy month for my husband and the church.  I am sure it will all work out.
