Hey everyone ... What's going on in your world this weekend?   I'm back from Boston . and have a ton of errands to run today.   I need to go see the eye doctor and have her check the new glasses and my prescription that was done 3 weeks ago .. I don't seem to be seeing any better and if anything it's WORSE than before ... I am not amused a bit !!! Lefty survived going to Kitty Sleep Away camp ... Mr Mo picked him up on Thursday and he came home and reclaimed his status as ruler of the house.   If anything he's even fussier and more demanding .. and camp did NOT affect his appetite one bit .. I sent him for 4 days with 4 1/2 cans of food (and he generally doesn't eat a full can a day) and he came home with 1/2 can . so he was definitely a little piglet at camp.    Considering I was only in the office Thurs & Friday this week it was a LONG week.  I had a Monday and a Friday!!!  I've got a lot of little administrative details that I need to get done .. none of them are major .. but there are a lot of them.  Plus, I'm still down a cashier .. and we are into the busiest two weeks of the year, so I'll be helping out where I can with the cashiers. Well, I need to get my hair dried here and get on my way .. need to grocery shop too so I have lunches for next week. Hope y'all have a wonderful Saturday!! Hugs, Mo P.S.    Here's the link to my webshots .. the new Boston pics are on there .. http://community.webshots.com/user/mo21012

If we spend our time comparing our life/weight loss/body to others, we totally miss what WE have accomplished.   Keep in mind how far you have come and what you can do now that you couldn't do weeks/months/years ago.   I hate the expression " It's all good", but in this case it fits!   Wherever you are in your journey  ... It's ALL good!!!

Hi Mo, Welcome back from your trip. It is great to see your post.   Glad to hear that Lefty did great staying at the Kitty sleep away camp.  I am sure he is going to let it be know that next time you better take him with you when you go away! lol I hope you get your prescription fixed that happened to Gino snd I one time and it was a mess finally when they redid the rx all was fine.   Nothing much going on over here. Gianna started Kindergarten, little Gino has had a hard time adjusting because he wants to go to school with Gianna.   Today Gino took Gianna to join a bowling league for pee wees.  I wanted to be there but again little Gino will have another meltdown because he wants to do everything she does so I stood home with him.  Thank goodness he will be able to join the league in January when he is 3.  lol I am doing good always struggling with my fluids but I am trying hard.  Try not to work too hard and have a wonderful weekend.  hugs,

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.

Cira, We will be going away with the motorhome in 3 weeks and Lefty's already got his bags packed .   I went back to the optometrist before I went to Lenscrafters and it seems my prescription was not right .. the left eye was fine but the right eye was not.   They re-did the whole exam and gave me an updated prescription.   Then I just went to Lenscrafters and they re-did the lenses.  I could tell the difference as soon as I put the new re-done glasses on my face. Awwwwwwww .. I bet it's cute to watch the little ones bowl!!    You take care of yourself and make sure you are getting your fluids and nutrients. Hugs, Mo

Good morning from NJ!! I am here the morning after my family reunion. Our reunions aren't on a scale such as others I hae heard about. But we have a good time with good food, music, beverages, and talk. This is the first time they have seen me in 2 years. They didn't know I had this surgery. I wanted to look good for this. I think I did.  We are meeting for breakfast at my aunt's house again. We are going to take a group picture this morning. We had some good pictures taken last night. We all plan to email our pictures to each other. I can't wait to see them. More when I am back in B'more.

Aime, It's alwasy fun to see people who haven't seen you in a while and see their reactions ...  We haven't had a family reunion as such but a few weddings and birthdays, etc that have gotten the Higgins clan together over the last couple of years and there has always seemed to be at least one person who hasn't seen me since my surgery and they don't recognize me. I've also had fun at a lot of professional conferences/meetings.   I can't tell you how many people didn't recognize me until they heard my voice.   I think that is pretty much done now though .. most everyone has seen me now .. but they continue to comment on how good I look Enjoy the rest of your time in NJ and drive safely. Hugs, Mo

Hi Mo! Hope you had a great trip to Boston. How was the weather there? The days just seem to fly by so quickly. We are getting ready to go see the Ravens play. Luckily it's a 4 p.m. game, so we have plenty of time to tailgate. For my birthday, my husband bought me a full length mirror because I always used to hate looking in the mirror. He said that now I should enjoy it. Although I certainly wouldn't have asked for a mirror, I love the thought that he put into it. Of course, I liked my Ravens jersey and ring he bought me a little better but I didn't let on. He really surprised me!! We went to Ray Lewis' Full Moon Restaurant yesterday. It was nice; I ordered a tuna fish sandwich and they were out of it!! I asked her if she wanted me to walk across the street to Safeway and get a can. . . . she laughed but I was serious. How can you run out of tuna fish? Oh well, I ended up getting a half of a salad with chicken on it. It was good too! Have a great weekend -- what's left of it!! ~~ Trish

Hey Trish, I'm up and dressed .. even think I got the dork wave in the back of my hair pulled straight for a change ... lol .. We are going to take a ride to Timonium to the RV show .. not as if we are LOOKING .. been there done that .. and have the payment to prove it .. but it's a nice day to be out in the air. Tomorrow is our 29th wedding anniversary .. I bought nice steaks yesterday for us to have a special dinner at home .. it was a package of 3 rib eyes .. I think there will be 3 meals there .. will freeze two and share a tiny piece from Mr Mo's steak. Enjoy the Ravens game.   You are right .. tuna should be something you never run out of!!! Hugs, Mo P.S.  Boston was a fun trip.   I learned a lot at the conference sessions and saw Boston too.  Here is the link to my webshots with pics   http://community.webshots.com/user/mo21012
