TGIF Morning Coffee !!!

Good Morning Michigan, Cold and windy outside here this morning, What it like at your house?

I'm drinking my old stand by this morning. What's in your cup this AM?

The Q for the day ........ What is the only thing that get to be a pain since surgery?

For me..... Sitting on bones instead of my fat. Sometime it hurts so bad . But I still would have the surgery again

Plans for the day?      We are heading to Midland to go to the Dow Gardens  Take a trip to the south with out leaving the state. It's so warm in the green houses

Good morning, Michigan!

Nothing in my cup yet.  I am headed back to bed.  Just checking the computer while the dog is out doing her business.  It is so cold, so I know that when I actually get up and about I will make some hot chocolate protein.

Great idea about the warm greenhouses, Randy!  I didn't like Meijer Gardens for that very reason pre-op, but now that I am always so cold, it would be perfect.  So I guess that would be my only complaint post-op:  I am always freezing cold.

Good Morning,

My house was cold last night, even my little guy complained about his feet being cold. 

Drinking my protien coffee this morning, 2nd cup.  Coffee has tasted really good the last couple of days.

My only pain since surgery is watching my blood sugar levels.  If they get too low, I pass out.    I have to have a snack before I go to bed, otherwise I am light headed in the morning. 

No major plans for the day, working and then going to Pizza Hut to use my son's reader rewards.  No major weekend plans, except that it is a three day weekend for me.  I am off on Monday, but still have to get up and get the kids to school.  I think I will spend the day working on taxes.  Fun huh!

Later

I am sipping away on my ice water at work. We have a lot going on today with the year end processes...

I am still learning to try and remember to feed my kids even though I am not hungry. Generally they dont let me forget about lunch/breakfast/dinner...but with no feeling of hunger, I dont have a lot of motivation to get up and get dinner going.

Tea is in my cup.  After 18 months finally figured out that if I drink de-caf tea (instead of coffee or water), I can actually get all of my water in for the day. 

I totally agree with Randy.  Sitting can literally be a pain in the butt.

Getting ready to head off to Curves for my morning excercise, then home to finish laundry and cleaning the house.

 

I would love your opinion of Curves.  I am having some heart issues and can't do strenous exercize until I see the cardiologist.   It has been 2 weeks and I am starting to feel sluggish.

I had to do the decaf hot tea for a long time, to get my water in.  Still do sometimes.  Except for the cup of coffee I have in the morning, I only drink water (I occasionally drink other things, but on a daily basis, it's only water).
Sometimes, tha****er just gets blah, so I go to the hot tea.  I have a 16oz mug and for whatever reason, I can drink two mugs of hot tea in a flash.  I guess it's just a "change".  But it works!  Gotta do what you can!  

I'm here at work ... typing my fingers to the bones today.  Definitely cold and blowy outside, so I guess it's a good day to be at work (unless you could be at home snuggled in bed, of course).

Had my coffee this morning.... already had a bottle of crystal light too.  Now I'm having a bit of baked oatmeal for breakfast. 

QOTD -- my biggest PITA after surgery is clock-watching.  Figuring out how to fit all the vitamin and calcium and iron doses in throughout the day and constantly being aware of the time so I can take my next dose.  It's habit now, but still I wish some days that I didn't have to be so aware of the schedule.

Plans for the day?  Working.  When I get home I want to spend some time in the scrapbook room and clean up my disaster from the last project so I can make way for my next one.  I'd like to spend some time this weekend scrapping, but I can't even get to my desk at the moment.

I haven't been outside the house since we got home from TN.  LOL!  I have no desire to leave the house until I have to go back to work on Monday.  The house is toasty warm, so I'm staying in as much as possible.  I've already had my 1/2 coffee, 1/2 water and am now drinking a bottle of water. 

QOTD:  Um...a pain since surgery?  Right now, I can't eat enough. Seriously, I'm eating every couple hours because I'm RAVENOUSLY hungry, but can only eat a little bit.  I think the baby is pushing everything up and I'm just not able to eat very much at one time (less than "normal" post op).  So, I feel like I'm eating ALL DAY!  

Hello Randy and Michigan!!!!

 

In my cup is Water, but I had milk earlier....

QOTD - My biggest thing that I have to complain about is when I get sick.... There is never anything to throw up, it just hurts and heaves and hurts more, but nothing will come up to relieve the pain.... Needless to say I was recently sick so this is fresh in my mind... LOL...

Plans for today... Just to stay warm and watch TV probably oh and tend to the kiddos..... Go to the bank, the pharmacy and the grocery store to get a few things that we have run out of....

Hope everyone has a great day.....

Hugs to all,
