WHATS HAPPENING SATURDAY
I told Joe this morning , we need to go get some groceries, and we also need to get the trailer inspected and lic. So off we go to town on the trike and trailer in tow. Went and had it inspected , no problems pay the 10.00 and away we go to the store. I told Joe you can let me off here and I will go shop while you go get the lic. Well darn it you cant I didn’t bring the personel property tax receipt with me , could have gone and gotten a copy but just didn’t want to. Tuesday we will be going to
Saturday and Sunday we are watching the great grand babies while Mama and daddy go to a Cardinals baseball game in
Well how many are following the Biggest Loser , Survivor and now the Amazing Race starts Sunday night. Then with Dancing with the Stars. I have a full plate of watching things. I have all of them set up to be recorded so if I miss one I can watch it later lol
I love reality shows. Can you tell.
I did some more cleaning of the flower beds today …pulling up flowers that are way over done with…and pulling weeds while im at it.
This time of year I keep the burn pile full all the time. Don’t want to put it in the mulch pile because it would be overrun with seeds …
We really need to go to my brothers house in Gainsville and get another big load of horse poop to put in the compost pile. It is just like black gold.
Makes the flower beds grow stuff so good., including weeds. Lol
JANET:::::::is the pill you are suppose to take at night to help you sleep? If so take it maybe a couple hours earlier. Like instead of taking it at 10 take it at 7 and go to bed early and sleep girl till you are rested. Not getting sleep makes pain twice as bad as it is when you are rested. Well maybe not twice but a lot worse. I know sleeping pills do me that was make me groggy but it gets better the longer you take them , your body will get use to it and will wake up better sooner. Does any of this make sense lol
Hey I see where Renee is going to help you beat him up or help with the beating or just kick him once in awhile while he is down or something. Add me to that group to help out. I may be getting old but I still have some fight left in me. So now you have two to help and I bet we can get lots more. And when we are done with Eric we will go find Micheles thorn in her side and take care of him too. Anyone else have someone they want us to kick???
You go girl and get that warrant activated I hope they get him good this time. Sure seems funny they can never catch him isnt it?
Oh that is awful about Megan and her hip, you think it is mainly because of the extra weight of the baby too or is there damage there? We will keep her and the baby in our prayers tho…
Oh wow I hope that baby is laying right so you all will be able to tell exactly the sex so you will have affirmation that it is a girl. I know you will love it just as much if it is a boy but seems little girls are so much more fun , expecially to dress but boys are so cute too all the rough and rowdyness…
I know I am worried about Jeanine and Peggy came and then just disappeared …what is going on. Where are they.
DEB::::::: don’t know why your nurtritionist would tell you that you don’t need B1 anymore because you are taking b!2 shots , that is almost dumb…..no I did nt say she was dumb , no way. But there is no B1 in the B 12 it is only B12, there is a whole bunch of B vits. And in the B-12 injection it is only B-12 nothing more. So don’t know what her point was, and if you felt better taking the other then take it.
When I feel full like that it is usually because I am and need some laxative. Once I take it and go I feel so much better.
Well I would tell Hubby that if he wanted to have a fish fry he had better get busy with all the things you just listed. Lol
You know I think a lot of guys have that feeling when we start losing….they think that they will lose you. And some marriages do break up but I think those are in trouble before surgery anyway. It goes the other way too. I have known some guys that had surgery and their wives were very concerned about the same thing. Maybe they are afraid of change and just don’t know how things are going to be. What their new role is ..just have to keep reassuring them until they see that we are the same person we were just better. Lol
RENEE:::::: my goodness that was a very very long day for you yesterday. Im afraid I would have been asleep in the car as soon as I started home. Especially since you had a driver lol But as we all know with me it doesn’t matter if I have a driver or not , I go to sleep in the car..driving or not.
Well glad that you don’t have to do that class. Sure seems wrong that you have to pay for classes like that???? Where do they think you are getting the money from.?
So glad that Tiff is doing well enough to go back to school on Monday.
Yeah Michele said that as soon as she said it to him mother she wished she could have taken it back but it was too late then.
Lol I got a good laugh out of your helping Janet beat up her ex. I though I could help too and then we could go get Micheles idiot too. And then look around and see who else we could beat up. Lol
LOU::::: so glad that you and Renee met , did you all ask if you could be roommates? That would be neat then we could call and could get reports on both of you. Lol
Can I ask you a favor Lou? Please make your text a little bigger. Old people like me have a really hard time reading your tiny little post. Lol . I put on these huge glasses to see it better wow still little. Lol
SHERR::::::: wow what a scary thought. Going thru all of that , then the scary phone call. Only to find out that it really wasn’t as bad as they thought but it still probably means surgery.
Are you taking your vits and protein like you are suppose to? You know that is for the rest of your life don’t you. Doesn’t have anything to do with getting skinny , it has to do with the malabsorbtion thing. I know at one time before you said something about not taking your vits. Please please start in with them again if you haven’t already. If you have to give something else up you do it but those are very important …
I know you breathed a big sigh of relief when your doctor said it wasn’t in emergency and that you needed to get in touch with your surgeon in
But could have been worse things than having to have surgery at some tiny little hospital, could have not been a hospital there at all if it had of been an emergency.
So glad we possible have an answer for you and your tummy problems.
Hope it has a good outcome. Will be praying for you …
Stay on here and we will help you get thru this for sure.
LOVE AND HUGS
GOD BLESS EVERYONE
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND

I am getting ready to go to bed, need to rest. Will be leaving at 6am tomorrow to my first 5K. I am so excited. It's a walk for diabetes which is close to our hearts as hubby was diagnosed just this last January. He has it under control and lost 30 pounds. So proud of him. Then next weekend is the 5K for Walk From Obesity....and we all know that is close to my heart also. I will always WALK from obesity!!!!!

I know all i can do is reassure.Gail and let him know he is loved We have been through some pretty tough times,But we have always pulled through stronger than ever.And i do mean some tough times. He has put up with alot from me so i know he either loves me or he is just plain crazy LOL.
The 6 year old daughter we have is from an affair he had, We took her worthless mother to court and got custody of nikki,When she was 3,The day we walked out of court her mother never shed a tear and told me happy mothers day, Her mother was leaving her home alone with her 7 and 9 yr old brothers and an 18 yr old neighbor boy while she worked 24 hr shifts, dureing this time nikki was 2 going on 3 and was being sexually molested by her brothers and the other pervert,Her mother has supervised visitation but never comes or hardly ever calls and then gets mad if we won't let nikki go stay the weekend with her,pLus her husband is a pot head and alcoholic, just had her in counceling again last month councilor said noway to letting her go spend the weekend with her mom.We tried letting her go for a couple of weekends it didnt work out,it is to hard for nikki, brings back to many memories then she acts out when she comes home ,takes us a good week to get her all straightened out again.i am not trying to be mean but i am doing whats best for nikki,I could careless about her mom, if that means no over night with her mom then so be it, I love this child as if she was my own,I hold her when she crys,I laugh with her when shes happy,i' m sad with her when shes sad, I stay up with her when she is sick,i kiss the booboo's away, i tell her i love her,i give her hugs and kisses, i tuck her in at night and make sure she says her prays, her own mother can't even send her a birthday or christmas card let alone a present. i open my home to this women so that she can be included in nikkis life not for her mothers sake but for nikk's, But i am done. This may **** some of you off but i feel i am her mom now, i may not of givin birth to her but i am always here for her. Her mom was just the egg donor in my book .I have never ever once blamed nikki for anything the way things happened. She didn't ask to be brought into this world but she does deserve to have a mom who loves her and who would give her own life for her, and that sure wouldn't be her egg donor,I thank God for bringing her into my life. I don't really like the way it all happened but Gail and I worked through it, Its done its over i have a beautiful daughter, I never throw it up i his face ,It is done it can't be changed,If i couldn't have forgiven him tHere would of been no point in staying,We all make mistakes Some of us bigger than others, But i feel if you truly love someone you will do everything in your power to work through things and make things work but it takes both of you, Ya can;t fight it alone.
tHere i go pouring out more of my poor me life to ya'll .I don't want pitty.Just need to get it all out. Theres alot more to come so be prepared. I'll start warning ya'll so if ya don't wanna read my drama ya can just skip the post.
But alot of things in my life i feel are what caused me to gain the weight i did,And getting it out i feel will help me heal and move on,Hopefully.
If ya'll don't wanna hear about my life, because some of it is pretty bad just let me know,I'll not post it.
But i feel Janet can relate to alot maybe not all but some and i feel she can help me work through some of the things that still eat at me, I am 48 yrs old i should be over them by now,But somethings have just resurfraced in my memory in the past few yrs and are very hard to come to grips with.
Dang didn't mean for this to drag on and on and hear i call my family drama queens,I'm not trying to be just trying to be honest and i feel the more ya know about a person and what they have gone through the better advice and help a person can give, I maybe wrong but just my feelings.
TAke Care,God Bless {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}} Deb

Does the super B complex and B 12 shot cover enough B?
and do you need to get more biotin than is in the super B complex?
there is so many questions about the B vits and I want to tell my class wrong.
also I eed some input on the very thing Dr. H. talked at our meeting, I guess it just didn't sink in good as I had some distractions from someone that I bought with me...Jan you know her...lol...
she likes to talk at the wrong time....but i love her... anyway about the good carbs and the bad carbs I know the difference in them, but do we count the good carbs in our daily count? I do but I want to know for sure...
Well I start Wed. volunteering at our welcome center a couple a days a week,,more or less, something to do and it is interesting..
Jan I know you and Joe will have a great time on your trip is is so nice this time of the year.
I love all you people and you have a very beautiful day....vesta

Then we did the same thing when the dryer died. So that is bill #2, then I had to put brakes on my truck....Bill #3, and now all the medical expenses, that are pilling up. I only have Medicare, and I am paying monthly bills to two different doctors now, because I can't pay the full amount.
So I had (5) extra bills this year, that I already didn't have a way to pay them, every month I am selling off my things in order to make ends meet.
One of the nuclear tests (just to have it) was $7,000, and that's not reading it, and my part is 20% (Medicare) so that's another $1,500 I don't have....So you see, I don't have ANYWHERE to squeeze from...
I am NOT complaining, I did all this to myself. I never went to any of the follow up appointments, because I couldn't afford to, ((up to Columbia))) after the first "One Month" appointment.
My poor mom offered yesterday to pay my gas and the hotel bill for my upcoming 2-3 day stay, but I would never take her money. Her medical bills are far greater than mine, and I couldn't do that
For the above stuff, is why I stayed away....I don't want to sound like a whiner, and scare some of the newbies coming on board. I am worse off financially than I was 2 years ago, and STILL will NOT have anyone to go with me to Columbia, and it hurts me. But I don't have a choice.
Good morning Missouri...
I had a husband on vacation this week and he has tried to kill me. We joined a gym (my idea) and had orientation (2 1/2 hours!!!), built a shed and just generally ran around. I had a little time each day to hop on and make sure you all were still ok and see who had their dates, who was still waiting, and who had made it to the bench. Way to go, you losers - Catfish, Doubleu2, and Bec! (hope I didn't miss someone!)
I am really not feeling well and I've had to make an appointment with my surgeon. Something's going on with my insides and I'm not sure if it's normal. It's actually been going on for awhile and with all the other yuck going on I just didn't want to add one more thing to the list. But I'm beginning to get worried so I will see him next week and make sure everything is working ok down there. Sometimes it just hurts and aches so bad and almost every night I feel so bloated. Then on some days I am just scared to eat because I don't know how things are going to act. Silly that I've let it go on but with all the thyroid issues and the siezures, this just fell on the back burner. But I've let it go on long enough.
I'm excited about working out again. I need to get back into a routine and feel better about myself. I hate the actual exercising but I like how I feel when I'm done. Plus hubby will feel better when he starts losing the weight again. Now if I can get the scale to move again. Ever since I had my thyroid removed, the scale went up and has refused to come back down. No matter what I try. Frustrating. Maybe I need to find a different thyroid med. Sometimes I feel like all I do is whine. Oh yeah, I don't sleep well either. Usually up walking the floor for a few hours after we go to bed. Like I said, whine, whine, whine. But maybe working out will help with the sleeping issues.
Counseling is tough. Enough said.
Yay for Dancing with the Stars! and Survivor! And I am so ready for cooler weather, I can't believe how warm it has gotten this late in September. Typical Missouri. Course then I'll be griping because I'm cold all the time! sheesh
Hope you are all doing well and you new losers are sipping and walking, walking and sipping. I remember thinking the gas was going to kill me those first few days. But then again, I discovered I was swallowing air every time I took a drink, so by the end of the day I was ready to die. Once I stopped that, I started feeling better. I'm so excited for each and every one of you!
I am planning on trying to come a support group in Springfield sometime...this last one didn't work out because our plans changed and I knew it wouldn't be smart of me to be alone for that length of time. But if any of you plan on heading north, let us know and maybe we can do a mini get-together. I would love to meet some of you!
Have a great day,
Peggy
