Ugh - everyone's been sick
Oct 30, 2009
Then it went into secondary infections. Sigh. Ear infection for me that won't go away...coughing, congestion--whole bit. Then DH loses his voice and sounds like Mickey Mouse! lol had to laugh (sorry hubby)... Been chaotic. Married 28 years-tomorrow. Yup we crazy kids got married on Halloween!
It was a very formal wedding, though! I guess we will go out to eat since our kids are too old to Trick-Or-Treat.
Life in the skinny lane continues to go well. Same old thing for the most part. Treating this "plague" with everything but nsaids. I've got drops and sprays and pills.... We'll be getting a family parking space at the Med Express, pretty soon! lol! Good grief!
Later, lads and lasses.
summer stress
Sep 16, 2009
I could have done without a few days in the hospital for tummy pain that sent me runnin' to the ER. I really think it was something I ate that got stuck. After Dilodid and sleep, I was better. I was scanned and x-rayed and all that kinda thing. The doc said maybe an intestinal blockage. Then I was told I have kidney stones. It was a few days I could have done without.
I have personal things that are going on and will be for quite a while, that I'm not going to discuss, here, but that just makes things all that much more difficult. I hope that things get better, soon. I just know that for this other person, they have to get worse first. That saddens me.
that tattoo on my forehead?
Apr 27, 2009
I swear I must have a big ol' tattoo on my forehead that says, "schmuck." Why do people think I'm gullible? Is it because I'm kind? I'm a well educated person. I'm a college grad. I really do have a light bulb that glimmers most of the time. I had someone close to me, this morning, yelling at me like I was useless, and then lied right to my face--repeatedly. Even when this person knew that they were "caught" in the lie, they wouldn't recant or apologize. Dumb sh*t... All is forgiven- we all screw up. It just hurts and makes me angry.
Life in the skinny lane, continues to go fine. It was a beautiful weekend and I was outside 98% of the time, doing things that I wouldn't have been able to do years ago. 
I love Spring.
I'm still hoping and praying for that total acceptance thingy! sigh...
true acceptance

What gives?
Mar 30, 2009
I'm finding joy in things that I like to do. Some of us, are able to spend more time doing family things and that helps. I'm so glad that Spring and the warmer weather are gradually working their way in. I can take the dog for longer walks and ride my bike. Soon, I'll go to the trail and start working that walk up to a run, again. My son is already asking me to play tennis. I know all these things will help with the stress. I'm losing weight again and I'm hoping it's stress and nothing else. This is the lowest I've been. I've lost 8 pounds in the last 2 months. That's way too low for me.
So, forward I go in the skinny lane. Positive thoughts, and prayers for the meaning of true acceptance.
Enjoy the Spring, everyone.
5 YEARS!
Mar 22, 2009
It's been over five years since my surgery and I'm so happy with my decision and the results. I've been maintaining for about 3 1/2 years I guess. I never vary more than 3 or 4 pounds. I was sick last week and dropped a couple extra, which isn't good since I'm at the very lowest of the "normal" BMI range. Anyway, I actually forgot to celebrate my anniversary. Five years and the date slipped by! I can't believe it.
too much happened, too fast

my poor car
Dec 21, 2008
I swear my car has a "hit me," sign on it. I just had an 85 year lady,4'11" tall,(no kidding) wearing a plastic rain hat, no less, slam into my rear bumper, the other day. I was parked in a parking lot and was in a store at the time. At least she stuck around and gave me her insurance information. How could I be mad at such a tiny old lady? That's the second time I've been hit, in about 8 months. I really like my car!
So, the holidays are upon us. Hubby and I gave up on the company party and went out and partied on our own, this year. We had a nice time. At least I'm a cheap date. :-) One drink and an appetizer and I'm happy. Maybe too happy! I paid for the alcohol with a wicked migraine, just a few hours later. Someday I will learn!
I'm getting tired, so I'll close for now. I'm loving life in the skinny lane. :-) Merry Christmas.
