Are you going to vote?

Hi there my friends, Today I was up early and was at the polls at 6:30 am. Funny how the energy levels are there now. Last year I waited until the end of the day. Getting out with my diabetic nueropathy was such a chore. Once I was out standing on lines were a killer to me. The nueropathy was so bad. Between the numbing and the pain I was very limited to what I could do. Halloween trick or treating and now I have voted. I am now going for a walk on the boardwalk. Life is great now. How has your life changed ? Do you still have the limitations of the things you can do or have they gotten better? Happy Voting day...Lorraine

How has your life changed ? I love it when I see someone I haven't seen for a while and they don't recognize me. That is such a hoot. Do you still have the limitations of the things you can do or have they gotten better? Some. Usually FM related. I still suffer with that pain, that will never go away completely, but it is more manageable. If I can keep the weight where it is, and not gain any more, I'll be good. Nona

Great job Lorraine!! I hope you enjoyed your walk. Absolutely no limitations any more. Before surgery at 347 pounds I couldn't walk a block, honestly. I was in pain and just plain exhausted. I took taxis and car services everything. I never walked, couldn't. Now, I walk everywhere and as much as I can. I also was never active with my daughter and now we do things all the time and I can go all the day! LIFE IS GREAT NOW - I HAVEN'T BEEN THIS HAPPY IN A VERY LONG LONG LONG TIME. And yes, definitely going to vote today. Have a good one.

It is pouring here but the voter turn out is suppose to still be good. I hope so. I will be out to vote later this evening. I am a stay at home Mom and all of my nieces and nephews called yesterday. None of them wanted to go to daycare and literally begged me to let them stay with me today (school is out). My husband thinks that I am crazy for having 7 kids in a house while it is raining outside (all day according to the weather). But how can Aunt Rhonda say no. I just couldn't. I don't get to see 2 of my nephews very much and when they call to come over it is always a yes. I am such a sucker. Oh well, wish me luck! I don't have any limitations anymore. I love having energy to do anything I really want. Trick or treating was a wonderful experience this year. WE WALKED!!! I out walked my 5 and 8 year olds. Remember to VOTE VOTE VOTE!!! Rhonda

I am going to vote tonight I am waiting for hubby, so I have help with the kids....I think I have the flu....I feel like butt!! Really tired and sore, dizzy, kinda pukey feeling......I think I will stay in bed all day! I do more now than I have in my whole life, and hoping it just gets better and better!!! jesi

Jesi, Hi there I think.... I mean I know it will get better. I sure hope I can mend back from this surgery I had. I am getting my energy back again. I can't go to Curves yet. I will return to work on Nov 22. I can't wait. I sure hope you feel better.Give yourself a rest and stay in bed. It's lucky you have a husband to help you also. Have a great day Jesi I hope you feel better... .Lorraine
