Tired Tuesday Roll Call
Good morning, PA!
Yes, sleepy too today, couldn't fall asleep until 2AM. So much on my mind these days. My melatonin helps, though.
This morning I volunteered to work in our church office for a couple of hours. Then I will head over to the store and see how the construction is progressing. Hopefully they can give me an idea of when I can move in. I am hoping it will be before surgery!
Day two of the pre-op Atkins diet, made it through yesterday with only 34g of carbs.
Have a wonderful day, everyone!

I read all your posts and realize I have no life on Monday thru Friday.
Last weekend, I CLIMBED A ROCK WALL!!! Ok, so, I didn't make it to the top, but, I made it 2/3 of the way! Saw a movie - "Grown Ups" - super funny movie!!! Made it through 2 dinners at restaurants and ate following the wls guidelines with no problem. I was pretty proud of myself! I even managed to show a loss on the scales!
I had an epiphany this morning and thought I'd share it here. I LOVE to get dressed in the morning. Yep, I said it! While I've been losing weight I've had lots of friends hand down some super cute clothes and I've become a pro at second hand store shopping. My laundry basket used to be 2 baskets of just my clothes, not because I had a lot, but because they were so big. Now, my cute little summer clothes all fold up nicely (and a lot of them) in one basket. I LOVE to put them away and even better choose which outfit I want for the next day. Then, I wake up and can't wait to put that outfit on. It's wierd, I know, but, maybe someone else out there feels the same way.
I still have days that I run into someone I haven't seen in a while and they are such a great ego boost!!! Working from home does tend to keep me hidden from the world.
I'm rambling again...kids wanna go do sidewalk chalk in the driveway...Everybody have a great day!!!
Oh, and Steffi - that is AWESOME NEWS that you're getting plastics on Monday!!! Congratulations!!!

Good Morning Pam,
Tired Tuesday is the perfect title for today. Could not sleep well last night. Upset about my therapy appointment. I hate learning the truth about myself. I overslept today, and now I am paying for it.
Today is another boring day for me. AA meeting at noon, then a trip to the gym to sit in the hot tub, as my back is stiffer than stiff. Then, I will pull out my fabric and try to start something for my grandson's birthday. I bought some fleece to make him some warm pants for winter, as it gets cold in Michigan in the winter.
Nothing else exciting.
Hugs,
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.

Afternoon everyone.
First day back at regular work after 6 days off, 3 or so that were actually off. Played Mr. Mom for the past few days while Erin went away with her mom. With the exception of a few snags, it went pretty well. The daddy / daughter time started Saturday night with a trip to the Iron Pigs game, just me and the girls. Completely awesome time! They were so good, I thought that maybe they weren't my kids for a few minutes. It was one of the experiences that makes fatherhood / parenthood an absolute joy. Reflecting back, it was one of my best 6 day off stretches in a long time.
Oh and I finally met Mia / emptied a little more baby stuff out of my garage and met Hailey and Lisa. I even came down with a brief case of baby fever. Thankfully Ryleigh's bedtime antics snapped me back to reality.
So anyway, I'm working till 6pm and then home. Have a quick meeting at 8pm tonight and that's it. Back on middles tomorrow. Hope everyone is doing well....
