Tuesday Morning Roll Call

Good morning(more like late afternoon) Kristy and everyone else too.

RANT: got woke to the news that DH's mother passed away on Monday morning (of course Through the grapevine) the sister didn't even bother to call him.

When I asked her why she didn't call us she said  OH She Forgot!. What an ignorant bunch of buffoons those people are.

RAVE: I finished the garage More weight loss surgery success. I was able to climb the ladder and even get the peaks. A coat of primer and a coat of satin out door paint.  Last year I was not even able to stand long enough to load the dishwasher or cook a dinner at the stove. I am now in a size 16W and am finding many cute outfits at the salvation army/ good will stores. And I like being a cutie pie too. LOL.
I am now the Wilton Cake decorating instructor at the Jo Anne's in Canton MI. It is kind of nice cause I make my own schedule. I make cakes and stuff and leave it for the store employees for their break cause You know I can't eat them. If you are interesting in taking a class please PM me.

Have a great day and keep up the good work.

You've been a working fool around the house these past few months....really happy for you.

Good job,

Edie

Hi all -

It's late afternoon and I'm actually drinking a coffee to give me some energy.

Kristy - sending good thoughts to your son!!! I hope he does well in the interview and he gets to stay close to home!

Brenda - boy, can I relate.....I have been in a bad mood lately too and I just can't figure out why....the humidity?  that I've put on 5 lbs??  that my son won't pick up his messy bedroom???  I just can't figure it out, but I'm like you, everything that normally wouldn't bother me is getting on my last nerve!  I think I'm just stressing because the wedding is creeping up and then I'll be gone from work for 2 weeks so I have so much to get done in the next couple of weeks.

RANT - we have a computer virus that attacked our workstations here at work yesterday and mine was one of them!!  UGH....have to resatge the whole computer and was not able to opeon any files or work today...a waste of day that I could have been getting so much done.

RANT #2 - My cell phone charger doesn't work anymore!  There's a short in the cord so I have one cell left on my phone before my phone goes dead.  I drove out to verizon at lunch to buy a new charger and they are 'out of stock' so I asked them to plug it in and charge it on one they had there while I shopped for an hour - so now I have 3 cells.

RANT #3 - I have gained 5 lbs in the last 2 weeks!  I eat pretzels non stop!!!  I hae to quit that.  Kristy, I remember at one of the support group meetings you told me you had to throw the pretzels out in the garbage in the garage.   I gotta do the same....and quit buying them and bringing them into the house. 

RAVE - gotta have a rave since I've ranted so much!   My rave is I am marrying my best friend and love of my life in 18 days!!!! 

Have a good night everyone!

Nan  . . . First I am excited for you on the up coming wedding and remember we will want to see a picture or two!

I gave up all flour products 4 weeks ago . . I dream of crackers and pretzels but I just couldn't get the scale to move for me so I took a drastic step for me . .  and I am now down 12lbs.  I will eat them again some day but for right now I am making better choices for me . .  giving up the pretzels was very hard for me . . they were my drunk of choice so to speak.

Kristy

I woke up got out of bed and did all that morning stuff most everyone does and I got ready ran out the door and got to the shop.  I have a doc appointment and then i have to drive a student this is what it is like almost everymorning I am so tird of everytime that I get my hopes up for surgery someting always happens to stop it.  I have a lot of faith and I know when the time is right it will happen.

my life is like a country song

I just keep praying
and that is the best I can do till I get my surgery

I have picked my doctor I have decied on Dr Foote I have heard a lot of good things about him I just hope by some meiricle that I can keep my insurance long enough to get my surgery done.

wish me luck

warm regards

Hi y'all.  Just got back about a half an hour ago from shopping.  We left at 10 am to go to the farmers market in town.  Gary rode his motorcycle while my girlfriend and I drove in the car.  After shopping the market, Gary went home and Mary and I went shopping.  We did the antique mall, then Bath and Body works, then Opa for lunch, on to Younkers, PetSmart, Staples, Bed Bath and Beyond, Sams Club and RiteAid.  In 15 minutes we leave for a concert at the Interlochen Music Camp (Peter and Paul, a Tribute to Mary).  One year ago I wouldn't have had enough energy to go to the antique mall and bath and body works!  I'm a bit tired, but not TOO tired.
Rave:  The weather in TC has been gorgeous as Jody said.  Tomorrow we're going to another concert, The Oakridge Boys.  Then rest on Friday.  We did a benefit ride for the Father Fred Foundation on Sunday and what a wonderful experience.  Lots of community support.
Rant:  Why do dogs have to poop 3 times a day.  That's 9 piles of poop a day for me to pick up.  Ugh.  :>)
