Thursday Roll Call!******************
Hi Everyone,
Happy Thursday! I just got home from work so I figured I would get this post going.
Not too much planned for me today, heading to bed in a few and then up to get the kids to camp and home to relax for a bit before I have to head back to work. I need to fit the gym and grocery shopping in sometime in between,
I was thinking about starting a new daily thread...confessional...someplace you can post your "slip" and then let it die there. I feel like I have had a few times in recent days where I have not been on my best behavior and if I had a post like that, maybe I would not have made that choice. Some place where noone would judge what you did, just put it out there and be done with it. What do you all think?
Anyway, I hope you all have a great day!

Good morning, happy Thursday all.
I got up really early this morning at 4 am. So I have some time to play on the computer this morning.
They changed my surgery date yesterday from 9/9 to 9/2. I am really ready to have the surgery today...llol
I have the monthly support group tonight and I am looking forward to going to it tonight. I enjoyed it last month.
I didn't have the greatest day of eating yesterday, I kind of overdid it, but today is a new day and a bright new outlook..
I hope everyone gets out and enjoys the weather.

Hi,
You could always start a group for that. That way people can join. The only thing that would not be maintained is confidentiality. So, that might limit some of the confessions. It's worth a try.
Today, I'm at the library again. Yesterday went well. I spent most of the day at the desk and that is always fun.
I am really trying to figure out what am I doing. What am I accomplishing. What are my goals. Do I have any goals. Hmmm.......

Happy Thursday.. I confess, I just ate my new protein cereal WITH milk. Now granted, I just put in enough to make it wet and didn't drink up the last bit, but I was DYING for a bowl of cereal and just had to do it. I'll buy yogurt to put it in from now on.
That felt good.. Thanks Christine.. good idea. LOL!!
Today has me working camp schedule. After I pick Siehara up this afternoon, things are going to get busy.
4:30 Rocco-- he wasn't feeling well Tuesday
6:00 chiropractor
7:00 Siehara has appointment at Kids Peace
Somewhere in there, we have to eat. I think I'll make myself a shake to take with me and a sandwich for her. That's better than stopping at McDonald's.

Good morning!
Awoke this morning to my tummy growling!
Today is Day 4 of pre-surgery liquid diet. Hopefully a little easier?
Plans are to shop, shop and more shopping with my daughter and mother-in-law. I'd asked her if she'd like to go to 1 or 2 stores to complete some errands...she's added about 4 more stores to the list. Ug! At least it will keep me busy and keep my mind off of food. I figure that they can grab a bite at McDonalds (in Walmart) while I shop around. Haven't figured out yet when I drink my shake?!? My water bottle will be faithfully by my side!
Home for "dinner" (another shake & more sf jello!), then a quiet night at home with the family. I've decided to avoid the gym this week - since I think I am so hungry and not getting in too many calories to burn. Hopefully I'll get a note from the Dr and my gym membership can be "frozen" until I'm able to return.
Hope everyone has a fantastic day today! Enjoy the sunshine!

Good Morning PA !
Christine - I think a confessional thread is a good idea. It's a great way stay accountable for our actions.
Today has me at work today and no work at the Doc's tonight...Yippee !! But, I have an evening of errands and chores to tackle....need to pick up my contact lenses order, get my walk in at the park, assist my boyfriend in dropping his car off for inspection, laundry, dishes....ughhh....maybe I should go to work....haha
Yesterday I was looking forward to trying to get to the shore this weekend. Now, I'm not so sure. I'm still feeling pretty tired at the end of the day. I'm three weeks out from surgery. I don't know if I want to pu**** especially that far from home. At least not this weekend anyway. We may opt for something a little more local. French Creek State Park is a 15 minute drive from my boyfriends place. We could take a picnic lunch and a walk around the lake would be equivalent to what I'm walking at my local park on nights that I am home.
Hope everyone has a super day.

Good Morning Everyone,
I overslept this morning and it felt great. I am getting ready for work and then home to work on a project for my sister. I also plan to get a swim in and walk Utley. Nothing exciting, but I am enjoying my work at the hospital immensely.
Sorry I missed Barix Post-op last night. I had a killer headache and was totally wiped out by 7:00. I am so glad the headache finally went away, but disappointed that I missed the meeting.
Have a great day everyone.
Huggles,
Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

Good morning everyone - well, if confession is truly good for the soul that will be one long thread every day, and I'm sure I'll be one of the first ones posting!! Might help me stay in line a little better on those days when I just can't seem to.
I'm at work - woke up with a raging headache but I know its due to TOM so I took 2 Tylenol and its starting to fade. After work we're heading to the eye doctor - hubby and I recently got new glasses and the lenses on both of them have gotten scratched so badly its like looking thru a fog. I don't know if its the new transitional lense or what that is scratching but my insurance should cover replacement lenses - we certainly can't wear them the way they are and are both back to wearing our old pairs, so if my typing is off today its because I'm having a hard time adjusting to the stinking bifocals in these again. Don't get old.
