OT-ramblings

Good Morning Cali!!
Long time no post...!
Well I'll be three weeks out on Wednesday, and down about 25 lbs!  I had a great surgery, had a little trip to the ER around the 11 th day (that story is on my profile) and have been now appreciating the whole "sip, sip, sip, walk, walk, walk" in the last week and a half.  I was really wondering if they actually performed a bypass on me for a while!!!
March is a crazy month.  
My mom is moving to MINNESOTA, 2 days after Easter .
We are moving to WASHINGTON 3 days after Easter
My brother and his wife just bought a money pit house that needs a ton of work...I cant help him...got my own house stuff to deal with.  And Im trying to rent my house out in Long Beach...ugh!
And my other brother and his wife have a baby, my nephew, who I hate to leave...he's too damn cute!
Soooo its kinda weird and surreal right now.  We all live within 10 miles of eachother...and now...we're leaving and so is my mom.  Ohhhhh so much to do, and not enough time OR energy to do it!!
Thanks for letting me vent!!!
Happy Monday to all of you!!

We all need to step back and let out all the bad once in while, that is how we keep us sane. I had a friend vented to me about things in her life today, then says sorry! She needed to get it off her shoulders and she did. I just hope she feels better and that she knows now, that she does NOT need to say sorry, I am hear for her, as she is for me.

You need to take it one day or one hour at a time, And get things done when you can, I know there is a part of you that wishes you had the energy to get things done faster, but trust me, this time in 3 months, you will have more then enought energy to run miles around life and all that is going on.

You also need to take lots of picture to keep close to your heart. Your brother will send you new pic all the time. I know its not the same but it will help. And when your nephew is 3 and comes to see you, you will keep up with him, without breaking sweat.

Enjoy your day.

Just because you are moving out of state, dont mean you can't come and check in with us once in  while RIGHT??

Luana

I was born in Washington, where-abouts are you moving to? I feel like you told us once before...but I don't remember???

Try not to worry too much...being farther apart just means that you have to come up with creative ways to feel close to them!

Congrats on losing 25# in 3 weeks! That is great! Sorry to hear that you had a trip to the ER, but glad that you are feeling better!

Thanks Lu-of course I will still be on the Cali board!!   Shells-we are moving to Kitsap County...I found a house in Port Orchard on CL.  Trying to see if DH or me will fly up there this week and lock it in.  We went up in Jan...I LOVE IT there!!!  Its sooooooooooooo different from So Cal.  My DH got a speeding ticket 30 mins outside of SEATAC...its so not LA (with the mad traffic n stuff) Im excited to go...I was born in No Cal, but with the exception of living in New Zealand when I was like 10 for a few years...Ive been in Seal Beach and Long Beach for nearly 30 years.  I will miss it here, but I'll get over it quick I think!!!

Oh Port Orchard is SO PRETTY! I miss it up there sometimes, I am thinking that at some point I will end up moving back up that way. =) Not for a while though, I am still enjoying the So Cal weather! LOL

My Dad still lives up there, so I go up there once or twice a year, whenever I can get away.

Well, now you will have another person to visit when you come!!!

Sweet!!!!
