Monday Coffee Talk

Good Monday morning everyone!  Man oh man did I sleep good.  How'd you sleep.  Today is a new day and the start to a new week.  It's going to be wonderful.  Time to rise and shine! Our challenge for today is to not ask "why me".  Sometimes in our lives, we ask the question why me when we face challenges.  Maybe you are gaining after WLS.  Maybe you are facing a hard time right now in other areas.  Instead of asking "why me", look at the challenge as just that.  A challenge that you are going to focus on how to change or how to beat that challenge.  Why me and pitty parties don't do anything for us except make us feel beaten.  You are not BEATEN!  You are a victor, not a victim.  Step up!  Get out of the pit of pitty and be that VICTOR today!  I KNOW you can do it! So, who's up?  What cha sipping on this morning?  Me?  I'm enjoying some awesome Godiva Chocolate Cream Coffee sent to me by my sweetheart, Lucy.  I love you Lucy.  Sorry for the mush guys!  No I'm not.  LOL  I'll say it again.  Love ya Lucy! Ya'll have an awesome and blessed Monday!  

I am sipping on some water. I had a bad night with my bronchitis and waking up hacking up loogies didn't exactly help me sleep any. But....hey...I am alive! I do feel better today than yesterday. I have noticed that my legs aren't as swollen....PRAISE GOD!! I plan on doing some studying for Wednesday. I am "filling in" for a Pastor who is going to be out of town during the midweek service. Not too sure what I am going to speak on. So, I have to get some major studying and sermon prep done. yesterday was overall a good day. Thankfully, due to my bronchitis, I was not really up to eating anything. However, after church I did eat a 6 inch sub from subway. Cold Cut Trio on wheat with lite mayo, lettuce, provolone, peppers, onions, tomato, and olives....YUM! My wife got home early today and brought me a "I LOVE YOU" balloon. She is so precious. I am thankful for my wife. I hear horror stories of people who have this surgery and the spouse cannot cope with the change....check that....they REFUSE to cope with the change and forsake their spouse. I am thankful for my wife. She has been an encouragement and a motivation for me. Anywho... for those at the SARATOGA Support Group...I will see you there.
