Terrific Tuesday Roll Call
Good Morning Everyone.
I had a busy and relaxing weekend, if that makes any sense. But it was nice! Today has me catching up on laundry and a few other chores I completely ignored all weekend long. I am hoping to relax and enjoy my week since I begin my new job next week whi*****ludes 2 long days of BORING company orientation, and 2 long days of Nursing Orientation.
Hope everyone had a lovely weekend! June is here..........and tomorrow is my boys' last day of school, so my summer of all 4 of the kiddos will begin!

When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila & salt and give me a call!
Good Morning Trish & PA friends ~
Back to work after 5 days off. Those days sure went by quick. I was able to spend some quality time with Brad and we had the family over for a barbeque yesterday.
I'm at work today until 3:30 and then it's home to finish putting away the some of the serving trays, bowls, pans, etc. that we used for the picnic yesterday. I really lack storage and finding homes for everything can really be challenging sometimes. I had to buy some new stuff, so we'll see where it ends up. I have some chicken thawing in the fridge, so I'll also figure out something to do with it for dinner tonight.
That's it for me. Hope everyone has a good day.

Good Morning All,
What a fun filled weekend non stop activity for sure from the time I left work on Friday till last night when I went to bed. Saw lots of very good friends and spent time with my Aunt, Had a photo-op with the Governor and the Mayor yesterday. Good times!
Today I finally took that mental health day I was saying I needed for the last 2 weeks. I have stuff I must do around the house and do have a headaache I think it is from the humidity but still not a fun thing. I am armed with a list of things I want to get done that is for sure.
Life is good but so busy ....Hope all is well.

Good morning all - I'm also back at work after a nice long vacation digging thru moutains of e-mails and other junk - vacation was wonderful but routine is good as well. Am charging up my MP3 at home so I can get on my bike tonight and ride, ride, ride. I've been neglecting myself way too long and it's time to get back to me.
Nothing too exciting for me today - work, home, dinner, work-out and that's about it. Hope everyone has a great day.

Good Morning All
Had a great weekend, now back for a tuesday. Amelia and I are hanging out at home today. Going to do some laundry and dishes and of course take care of Miss Mia. This afternoon my Mom is coming over with my grocery order (I order them from ShopRite online and she goes and picks them up for me). I am still pretty sore but it is getting better by the day for the most part. Hoping to get out for a walk later if the weather holds out and it doesn't get too hot. I am loving being at home with Mia and am already dreading August! I try not to think about it lol
Have a great day all!!

Good Morning all...
Am I the only Western PA person on here other than Todd? Wow! :)
I feel rediculously cut off from the world since I've been in a bit of a microcosm since my surgery. Someone on here mentioned that it's June... I was pretty amazed at that. :)
I guess the pain meds are working.
My neighbor has my son (Alex, 4) today -- my daughter (Victoria, 6) is at school. So, I plan on spending some quality time with my DVR as I relax and recover. I realize this languid time can only last for so long.
It's going great though -- I'm feeling good and already down 22 lbs. Crazy!

Western PA rocks! So I forgot to ask you but what is your first name? If your first name is really jlevanspa, then I apologize! lol
Today has me trying to get back on track from all the bad eating I did this weekend. i didnt fill out my food journal until today and I have to say that I did pretty sucky! Im going to really buckle down this week because I think next week while im on vacation is going to be tough. I will have to weigh in on my last preop visit the thursday after I return and I need to be on a continued weight loss trend. I cant go up even a pound or I risk not getting approved for surgery.
So after talking to Steffi last week I DECIDED TO TAKE HER ADVICE ABOUT HOW i AM GOING TO INFORM MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY ABOUT MY (caps on accident) upcoming lifestyle change i.e. no eating or drinking beer. I decided not to divulge about my surgery. I laid some ground work yesterday while at a memorial day party. I told a few of my friends that because of my upcoming 40th birthday I have decidd to make some drastic changes in my diet. I told them that I have to get healthy now and that I will be starting on a doctor supervised diet that will have me drastically reducing my food intake and eliminating any alcohol use. The response from them was......wait for it........"good for you swede, sounds like a good idea!" Whew! One of my buddies jokingly told his wife that she wouldnt be able hang out around the skinny Swede (for obvious reasons) lol.
Well that is all for now. I hope everyone has a great day.
