Saturday Saturday....

Hope everyone has a good weekend!!  BRRRR it's cold outside we had to change the filter in our furnace and crank it up last night. Things are going okay here, besides the fact I'm coming down with a nasty chest cold.  So I had my follow up (kind of 3 month PO appointment even though its a couple weeks early and I go back in a month lol) and things are doing a bit better. I'm going to go in on Tuesday for a scope to see if maybe I just need dialated again to see if that helps with the pressure or stuck feeling/nausea when I eat/drink and also to make sure my ulcer hasn't returned. I am starting back on the Reglan to help control the nausea, but that's easier to deal with then actually getting sick!! I'm down about 55 lbs and things are looking good. I do still have my Gtube for another month just because she feels it's better to have it and not use it then to have to place it again!  Overall I feel better for the most part though Thank GOD! I'm keeping a good attitude about everything! I'm going to be job hunting this upcoming week so I don't know how much I'll be on but I need to find something. hehe Have a blessed weekend y'all :)

Good Morning, Fall has indeed arrived, hasn't it?  The house was pretty nippy so I broke down and turned on the furnance this morning.  I'm ready for the beautiful fall colors and cooler days but if we could just return to spring after Christmas I would be happy.  Not looking forward to snowy roads. Today is a little more relaxed weekend than I've had for awhile.  Still working at home at my second job but the work load is a bit lighter.  I hope to be done by afternoon and have the evening free.  Yeah!! The weight loss is going good.  I am at -97 lbs and wearing a size 14 pant and L or XL top.  I suddenly LOVE to shop.  I am excited that I will be over -100 when I have my 6 mo appt in late November.  Misty, glad to hear things are going better for you.  Keep hanging in there.  Everyone, have a great day and enjoy the weekend.

WOW Peggy congrats on 97 lbs down.

Hi Everyone,   I am sitting here thinking of going to the Covered Bridge Festival, but not sure if I want to hassle with the traffic. I just hate to get in a traffic jam, and sit for hrs.- which happened 2 yrs. ago.I just love to look at all of the crafts & "stuff".  Amy goes Mon. for her cervical cancer test, plus the ultrasound for the sizing of the babies-  if all goes well, we may be grandparents soon!!!I just hope Bethany has grown some- they had so much trouble finding her heartbeat all week- talk about stress!    I talked to Bill and Sherri's doing better!!!!!! They still have her in ICU, but she is improving daily!!! Hopefully by next weekend she'll be in a regular room, and we can see her. I'll keep you all posted!   Misty, I am so glad you are feeling better, and each day is one more step to getting that G-tube out. Keep up the great work, get those fluids in and take care of yourself!!!!   Have a great weekend everyone!!!! (((hugs))) Ellen

Ellen I am so relieved to hear that Sherri is doing better! Thanks for the update. Wow before you know it your gonna be busy with diapers and all that fun stuff, huh??? Sending loads of prayers that everything is A Ok on Monday :)

Hi.  I've been gone and it looks like I've missed a lot.  What happened to Sherri?  Why is she in the Hosp.   Guess I'll have to go back and read some old posts.  We;ve been in Gatlinburg,  Did a trail ride again,  Went to Dillsboro NC and took a senic trailn ride.  This is along the stretch of track that they filmed the train wreck in the movie the Fugitive.  The two engines and the bus are still there.  Did some shopping for  Christmas,  We had a great time and good weather.  I'm baby sitting for our godchild today. He's just 6 months old and naping right now.  We need to get in all our pots and furniture later today. Ellen , We had reservations at  a campground for next weekend just north of where the bridge festivile is but decided to cancel.  Just didn't feel like messing with the crowds.  We are camping at Pokagon SP instead..  OH oh Duty calls. Someone just woke up.
