Obviously smaller in October !

Oct 29, 2009

Don't know where my September update is .....whatever!!
October brings lots of great news! Tommy FINALLY got approved from the VA for the revision!  Yeeees! Dr. Gibbs forund a hernia, said he needed his gallbadder out, and would definately be able to fix his stomache, thank goodness he knew how Dr. Ozment did those surgeries way back then. His staple line has a hole in it and will need to be completely aaaaa  He is scheduled for Monday, December 28, 2009! I am so excited for him but dreading it also. His pain tolerance is very low and I know it will be hard on him. After we get thru the 1st 2 weeks, i think it will be ok.
As far as me....I just love me some Baby Jake!! I looked back and realized that since April, I have lost 15 pounds. 5 would love to loose another 10 pounds but everyone is worried i might look sick.  I had 4 people call me skinny this week FUNNY!!! I have not seen my sister for 6 months and she begged me not to loose anymore weight (15 lbs ago). We are 3 people short at work during the day.OMG it is like a freeking nightmare! I don't know how I do it! I just keep thinking that we need to close the week Tommy has surgery and we need to save as much money as we can for that week.  Work is so busy and with Jake it really makes it busy!  Tryng to get ahead before gun season starts!  I am so ready for Janurary!
These days, i find myself snacking a bunch more than I need to. I still have my Starbucks addiction and then there is the SF ice cream....Other than that, i am pretty diligent with my way of eating.  I am trying to remember everything to take to the hospital and also my grocery list for home. I will be at work the week after he comes home so he will have to fin for himself! during the day. jonboy is still not any help at work, maybe a day or two here and there, just not dependable. T complains about it everyday and blames him when things are not right....i think it is our fault for expecting something when we have never been able to depend on him....why should things change now?  Oh well, it;s my soap box....
I am still not drinking more than 4 oz of milk at one time except in my starbucks and it is 1/2 %. cant do smoke meats much and chicken still does not settle with me very easy (unless it is fried).  I will diligently try this month to get back on my oatmeal breakfast, vitimins, and log my liquids daily! I have to be very careful or I do not drink enough during the day.
Will update later, I need to go to bed so I can get up early and see Baby Jake!
