Tuesday Roll Call

Hello everyone

I have had a busy couple of days.  Sunday I had a surprise visit from an old friend I haven't seen in 20 years.  I found her on Facebook.  She was in the area and she just came by and we had lunch together.  It was really nice to see her.   

Also, just in the past couple of days my band has gotten even tighter.  If this keeps up I won't need my next fill on 11-20.  I can eat a couple of bites and that's it.  I made a hamburger patty for dinner last night and couldn't fini**** (about half of it got eaten).  I started to burp up my food.  SO YEAH!!!  I'm actually very happy to have good restriction.   

Well work is the same.  They are having a department party Friday for the two of us that got promotions...nice...except they are having Chinese food.  I hate Chinese food.  I can't even stand the smell of it.  You would have thought they would asked me since I was one of the ones promoted.  But then I thought I don't need any of their food, I want to lose weight.  It was just the point. 

I hope everyone is doing well.  I hope Georgie is doing well.  Have a wonderful day. 

Good Morning to All,

Thinking of Georgie this morning, She is jusy about ready to sit on the bench with us.

Kathy is one day closer to joining us.

Crystal, I am so glad you enjoyed your weekend.

Paul, some weekend  shows are like that. Not much action. You will know not to do the show next year.

Today will be another day from H. I am so glad we will be off tomorrow for Vet. Day.

Yesterday after work, I went and did some Holiday shopping. I have my DH done ( replaced his leather jacket), my cousin, both girls and granddaughter, Just a few more things to get. I pride myself on  being done by Thanksgiving.

They will be closing our road in the next couple of days, Its to be closed for about 2 months while they compleate water lines repairs ( totally new). Then, hopefully they will have road redone and compleatly opened by summer.

Have a safe day,

Hugs.

Good Morning Illinois!

I'm up and at it again.  Today I have my mother coming over to have her brakes done.  I don't really like doing car repairs but she needs brakes and doesn't have the money to do them at a proper shop.  I've also started building more doll bunkbeds to sell.  I did one out of Aspen and will do another out of Mahogany.  Hopefully, they will be ready for the show on the weekend.  I figured I would sell them for $125 or $150.  Then it is off to the gym this evening.  I'm working out 3 to 4 times a week and not eating very much since the recent fill, but still the scale stays where it is at.  Argh!!!  Well have a nice day and good luck to all who are going through surgery.

Carla chiming in today.
I didn't make it to Chicago on Thursday. I got sick and turned around at the Georgia line. Got a fever and chills and nausea so decided to abort the trip. Ill fly up sometime in December to get what I need to get done done!!!!!
Today I had to get up at 5am to take care of my 4 yr old cousin and take her to school. I forgot how to be a mom to a little one.....Man she tired me out....Ill take my 28 yr old anytime!!!!!
But we had fun.
Man I wont eat at Mcdonalds anymore. I had a chicken nugget and broke out in hives....I was miserable all night. I took a benadry and that is all she wrote last night.
Still waiting when I am starting my new job. I should here today.
I got a job in the Emergency room at the local hospital for admitting. I have done that kind of work for 25 years. So Ill only cut hair one day a week if I can find a salon that will have me.
Well I have had my starbucks for a minute and I am going back to hit the pillow for a while.
I feel like I have put in a days work already!!!!! and it is only 0914!!!!!
Carla

I hope you are feeling better soon.

I don't really like McDonalds to begin with but wow, hives that is scary. :(

Good morning everybody.

Crystal have fun at the party! :)

Lucy I really do hope it gets better soon :(

Paul good luck at the upcoming craft show! I hope sales go really well.

As for me... THE SCALE FINALLY MOVED! And not just once! or a fluke, but twice in two days! Yesterday I was down 1.5lb and I thought, ok at least it moved.. even if its cause I havent eatten or drank all weekend at least it moved! Then last night I was able to drink some water and I ate a few shrimp, part of which came back up because of all the dang mucus in my pouch! Anyhow, this morning I weighed myself and I am down another 2lb! That is 3.5lb in 2 days! I am so excited.

To reach my goal by my anniversary date I need to lose 3.5 a week. I am hoping that this cold is gone by friday because as of friday I have the surgeon's ok to start the bowflex again and I think that means I can start curves again too! On top of that I meet with the dietician next tuesday which I really really need to do.

Ahhhh! I am so excited to get back to normal crap that I dont even care if I am sick I am still happy :)

I hope everybody is doing well and I will be thinking of Georgie over the next few days :)

Glad your scales are moving.

Crystal,
If you are going to cancel your appt let me know, they can't get me in until December and I wanted to get in by Thanksgiving.

Sheri

I will let you know ASAP.  I was actually thinking about you and thought you could take the appt.  But I will not make a decision either way until I get much closer to my appt.
