I'll be praying for a Speedy Recovery.......Your almost there, be positive.  I'll be needing those words as well later when I get a date.  I'm a big chicken!!

thanks for the post. time is running short, so much to do before my rebirthday. will have no time to think about anything.  who are you seeing? will it be long? what are you thinking about getting? hugs, linda

Good Morning........the countdown is on...

I am going through Ochsner with Dr Richardson.  I am in the the 3 month diet stage.  I have done all the blood work, sleep stuff, shrink, etc.... I have been farting around with this since Nov 06.  I am a big chicken and have finally decided it is time to do this.  My hubby is going to do it with me a month or so after, so we are getting there.
I'll be thinking of you on Halloween, how cool....I've always wanted a Halloween birthday and what better treat!

hey kim, Monday and Tuesday will be very busy with things that i have to get done before surgery.  Monday at dr office and hospital for the last test. Tuesday, well that is a long story. i started an adoption about 2 months ago of a little girl and now it seems everything is running together. We have to do the ocs meeting Tuesday, and court date dec 11, 07. i hope that i will be able to attend that for sure. not sure i will be on line before surgery again. but thank you for your warm thoughts. Do some trick or treating for me. hugs, linda
