My intestines behaved until that problem I had October of 07. Every since then, you'd think I had triplets in there..or at least a half a dozen mice al trying to get through the maze of intestines. They move all around and are very noisy doing it. They have me on meds for it (and pain meds). I've told the GI how sometimes what he has me on isn't enough but he didn't want to up the dose. Usually, if the meds isn't keeping it under control, it's just for a few hours..a day at the most. This has been going on since Friday though and it's starting to wear me out. Oh..I was told that anything above 3 x a day is abnormal. I've been going about 20 times a day since Friday. whew! No wonder I'm exhausted!

DH woke up feeling like crap too, hes got pressure behind his eye and it's swollen kind of bad, affecting his vision too soooo we're off to the doctor for him today too.
Today just kicks off a week load of doctors appointments pretty much. I have an appointment pretty much every day this week, 3 in Indy, great fun.
Busy at work this morning, at least for 2 more hours, then off to Carmel for my Nut. appt and then off to see Dr Huse, I am going to talk to him about possibly getting an revisment. We will see.
Thanks Tracy for being my co-pilot, I am happy to have the company. It is a long drive by yourself.
We are going by to visit with Terry and Lyn. Terry if you see this and need anything call me on my cell at 765-677-9716 and let me know.
Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, I had a busy one, but got some family time in yesterday, and my husband was happy he got to go tool shopping, I sit out in the truck and start my first assignment in my Master's degree. Woooohooooooo, I never thought I would continue my education this way, I thank God for the opportunity to do so.
Everyone have a wondefful and safe Monday, talk soon.

I'm having a good monday morning. Of course the reason is that I only have to be at wor****il 1:15 today and then I get the rest of the day off. After of course, I go to my gyno for an exam (fun, fun). I had that ablation procedure a month after my RNY because I started my cycle 2 weeks before and it never stopped. 6 wks is just entirely too long. So, my doc said lets check it out and do that procedure. My age is one reason and perimenopause is not far away but, I tell you haveing that procedure was the best thing I did for myself (except for the RNY!)
I had the grandbaby 2 days this weekend. Both Fri and Sat. He is such a doll and so easy to have around but, the terrible 2's are creeping up (ha-ha). We went to the mall and did some shopping and I bought GET THIS... size 16w jeans! That's a wow moment. I got two pair but only one fit for now. The others were still too tight but, I did find about 6 pair in my closet that I will be in very soon! Why are they no consistant with clothing sizes? Of course seeing as I use to be a size 26/28, I will go with a too small size and aim for glory. And 16w is someplace I have not been since I was a teenager. We don't have to talk about how long ago that way.

I've spoken with the Girl Scout council today and they took my number to check out my request and then will call me back with their answer as far as donating some cookies so Kim B. and I can get a basket put together.
I'm glad Lisa will be coming home and hope everyone else has a good day today.
Take care.
I have been gone for the past few days ,so trying to catch up on all that's happening here.I went to a Woman's Retreat in Lafayette, with my church Sister Chicks. It was so awesome,inspiring, challanging, fun & I really needed the time away.

ENDURE,





Me, me, me `````` I'm up for any kind of concert as long as it isn't rap.
Will I embarress you if I dance? I love actin' like a teen-ager again
I'm going to IU Bloomington this w/e to see Mama Mia! on stage. I absolutely love, love, love that movie. I've watched it over and over a dozen times and sing and dance around my living room. I don't know how I will be able to sit still in my seat and keep my mouth shut through the performance. They may have to throw me out!
I love that movie because it takes me back to my teen years in the 70's when I use to have a pair of high platform shoes just like Meryl Streep wears in the movie and my boyfriend had long hair like that and my mom hated it. She wanted him to get his hair cut.
Those were the days.
