home sweet home

I've decided to make this board my primary residence on OH. Been going through some crap as of late... have a lot of issues that need to be dealt with. Will be going to a therapist to get them worked through. Mental issues really suck. I trust you all and know that what I say actually means something to someone else, whereas on other boards, people talk just to hear/see themselves do so. Or am I totally in left field with this? *yawns* It's been a long weekend. Spent it with the family(and at times the whole EXTENDED family) up north. I am on overload. On Friday there were 25 people crammed in at my grandma's house, with nearly 1/2 being kids under the age of 10. I really have no patience for little kids--the one exception being is my 9 1/2-month-old niece. She is just the cutest thing in the whole wide world. She dances when you sit her on the floor and grins with her two little toothies. OH so cute. And then, on the way home, 35W was stopped dead for a good 5 miles. OY. I finally got off and took Hwy 61 the rest of the way home. And I had left at 10:30am from the lake, too! In closing(lol), I just want to say HEY and THANK YOU to everyone here. You are one of the best support systems a person could hope for. And I really hope to make one of these coffee groups! Where/when will the next one be?

Hey! Nice to have you here!!

Why thank you. Tis nice to be here.

The people are genuinely more pleasant here and not so in-your-face about things. You know?

What really gets me is how unprepared some of the members are--and they've already had the surgery! Makes me think of how greatful I am that Unity has such a wonderful after-care system in place.

If I see one more post on what I need to bring to the hospital. It's just maddening!

Sorry, you didn't need this. lol I need to go to bed now!

Hey! No I totally understand. I love the lapband ones..... a person that is a  few months out and say "I just had a fill and now I can't  even ge****er down. What's up?"    Uh.....TOO............TIGHT! lol :-) I like the people here.  It doesn't put a bad taste in my mouth and I feel like I can say what I feel without being bashed. I love these people and if my boobs didn't get in the way (and if my arms were longer),  I would hug them all at once.

Boobs in the way -- you crack me up.  Don't complain about them too much  -- you'll want them back once the weight comes off !!!!  I refer to mine as gold toed sweat socks!!!  My cruise fund has changed to my boob job fund!!! XXOO

LOL!! I am really hoping my age... might.... help... some...... maybe that's wishful thinking, but I have been doing a lot of boob exercises. lol.

Great.  JUST GREAT.  Now I have a visual to distract me for most of the day.   Elena in front of a mirror, palms together, chanting "we MUST!  we MUST!  we MUST IMPROVE OUR BUST!"  

No.. it's much worse than that.... I do it like Jan on Grease.... arms up in the air... singing "Brusha... Brusha... Brusha. Get the New Ipana - Brusha... Brusha... Brusha...it's dandy for your teeth!" NO JOKE. lol

YEAH -- a permanent resident!!!!  And good for you dealing with your issues. 

Looking forward to your input in our posts!!!!

XXOO

Welcome aboard!

You have done a wonderful job with your tool  :)  Love the pics!

We were heading south on 35 to the dinner with Sue and the traffic going north was just plain insane!!!  I swear it was dead stop for miles coming out of St. Paul...  Happy we didn't head north until about 10pm... it wasn't that bad then.

I look forward to reading your posts!  Have a great week!

*hugs*
