Good Monday Morning, everyone!
What's got your engine started this morning? Will be brewing some black, decaf real soon.
Where did the weekend go? Went WAY too fast!
QOTD-What did you do this weekend with the unseasonable warmth and sunshine that came our way? What a rare treat! Got out and did a bicycle ride Sunday afternoon with my sister and a friend. Felt so good to be out. Went part of the Kal-Haven trail. Couldn't believe all the people there either walking or riding their bikes. What a neat scene.
Hope today is just as nice!
Have a good one!

Good Morning Deb and everyone!
I'm drinking a sf instant breakfast and having a South Beach bar before I head off to work.

QOTD-I did my cardio at Ikea!  Not really, but we did walk around for a long time.  I had lunch with some friends and then did some grocery shopping.  Sunday was eventful around here.  My sweetie pie teenager "ran away" because DH won't let him get his lip pierced.  He ended up calling 2 hours later for a ride home.  Teenagers are so much fun!

Hope you all have a good day!  (PS-I need some good vibes sent to the doc that did my psych eval....I'm afraid he's going to take forever to submit the results and that's the last step to revision...)

Called the shrink's office.  Apparently, he's got "a few ahead of me" and will start to look at my eval. some time next week.

WTH?  

I am not really happy that St. John is so insistent on this, especially because it's a revision and not an initial surgery.  The least they could do is schedule my pre-op stuff and get things going.  Ugh.

Good morning Deb and everyone....

Went to spin class this AM @ 0530 (missed you Deb!!)...okay your excused but Dave B. rode 25 miles yesterday and was my buddy this morning. LOL  Janet filled in for Britt.
Ran into Erin in the locker room, we gotta make plans for our own personal trainer for upstairs!

QOTD: Went to bariatric support group with Deb and did our shopping at the resale store. The weekends just go by way to fast. Worked out in our yard with those lovely leaves...that's my plan for after work. Hummer worked on hanging new kitchen cabinets and they are so beautiful, brighten up the kitchen. Baby sat for my "fur baby doggie" while Danni and her boyfriend did "larping" this weekend. Tink is getting along much better with the alpha hound dog Angel and they didn't fight at all this weekend.

Getting ready for our cruise, we will be leaving next Friday! Wwhhhoooooooooooo!!

Good Morning Deb and everyone!

I'm drinking a protien coffe right now I make with coffe, 1 scoop of vanilla Boddy Fortress and a splash of carmel SF syrup.  Yummy. 

Brenda - Good luck on getting the results back from your Psych eval!!  I think watting is the hardest part!  Sending good thoughts your way

QOTD:  I got outside and raked and took care of some lawn work that needed to be done.  And I hung out clothes on the line which I haven't been able to do for a long time now!  It was a beautiful day! 

Have a great day everyone!

Good morning Michiganders.

vanilla protein with peanut butter and sf hazelnut syrup. Kind of frothy for me so I will wait till the bubbles die down.

going out to winterized the back yard since hubby got sent OTR and I am not sure if he will get in before it snow. Supervising the kids on final leaf rake up. Then I will be done for the day.
What's in your cup?

QOTD: Saturday the deer slayer and I did the front yard leaves and That took all day. 6 bags of leaves. Sunday I was worn out so I puts around the house and napped a lot.
It was a beautiful weekend weather-wise.

Brenda good thoughts for your Evaluator to get busy and send those results.

Hope everyone has a peaceful happy safe Monday!]

Good Morning all!

My little grand-daughter got me moving this morning . . just finished my protein hot chocolate and then getting ready to run some errands. 
I had an ultra sound done on Saturday to make sure all is well before doctor gives me the green light to return to work . . I am having a lot of pain under my right rib cage but am hoping it's just normal healing pain . . I have never been much of a baby for pain but this pain can drop me to my knees . . I have a 1:00 appointment with doc so hoping all is well and I can get back to my old life . .

Brenda good luck with everything . . . it will go your way!

QOTD- I watched lots of football and sat in the sun  . . still can't do a lot of lifting so I was limited on yard work . . did put away the fall items.

Enjoy this beautiful day.

Morning all,

Finished my shake and on to iced tea in a few.

Brenda I hope your shrink does your paperwork asap, I still find it dumb that you even had to do it, if you flunk what are they going to do reverse the original procedure....dumb, dumb, dumb!

Q:  It was so nice this weekend that it got me out to wash my windows....I love clean windows but since Oct. got so cold so fast I didn't think I'd get it done this fall.  Then on Sunday I hit a couple buckets of balls (golf), and sat in the sun and read a book ahhhhhh, how nice that was.  Wish I was the type that would play hookie and I'd be home today too!

Have a great day all,

Edie

Good Mid Morning Everyone,
                                           I did running around this weekend and grocery shopping.  Yesterday I was freezing for some reason.  I am gonna try and do some light exercising today and see how that goes.  There is laundry that needs to be done and dishes.  I am sure that will take me all day to get it done, but and steady is good.  I haven't had anything to drink yet, but it will be water.  I woke up hungry this morning I liked it better when last week and didn't want to eat.  Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

Good  morning all!

Fri/Sat I drove back from DC and stopped in Ypsi for a consult with Dr DiNick.  Then I went and met my sister in Davison and had lunch and went to a craft show - then headed home after that.

Sunday I went to my ex-DH's house and helped him rake leaves - we got the ALL DONE!  Wow - what a difference a year makes in my stamina and what I'm able to do!

Finished my protein coffee and now working on some SF raspberry crystal lite.
