Thirsty Thursday WLS Express
Good morning Train Riders! We had a fantastic day yesterday. Got to see the gummy bear, and it was jumping and bouncing all around. Jeff was very excited (me too!!). Next week I go in for a screening test that includes a 3D ultrasound. That will be really cool. Today I've got some meetings, and need to get more productive than yesterday. I kinda puttered around once I logged in and didn't get as much accomplished as I should have. Tonight we're going to do some more packing and sorting. I've also got to put a Moving To Do list together, silly things like setting up electricity, forwarding mail, lol you know the 'little' things.
Ok here are my answers to the questions of the day:
1. What is your favorite protein drink? How often do you drink one? Before I got pregnant I was doing 32oz of protein coffee in the mornings. Now coffee tastes and smells bad, so I'm back to a shake every morning. 1 scoop of EAS vanilla, 1 cup of Hood 2% milk, 1 cup of frozen strawberries & 1 T of cappuccino mix.
2. What is your favorite no/low cal drink? Sonic Lemonade with Diet Cherry - 20 cal for 44 oz! Yummm
3. What is your favorite adult drink? I can't drink at all now (or before the baby). Alcohol makes my blood sugar tank faster than anything else I've run into, not fun. Before my RNY my favorite drinks was Hornsby's Hard Apple Cider.
Looking forward to seeing everyone who can come at the benefit this weekend!

DEBBI-those sonograms have sure come a long way!!! On Brayden's last one-about 2 months before he was born-we could even see his EYELASHES-it was amazing-the weird thing was the "soft spot" showed up as a big hole in his head-kinda scary if you weren't expecting it..lol...just warning you!!!

We Can Do Hard Things
1. What is your favorite protein drink? How often do you drink one?
Hands down, Whey protien, unflavored with Herseys Special Dark Coca Powder. Tom mixes in our Bullet, the problem is finding the Special Dark Coca Powder. If you see it in the store.....
2. What is your favorite no/low cal drink?
Diet DP, prefer it set and decarbonate, buying 2 liter bottles and letting them fizz out. Iced tea with splenda is second. We us decaf tea...
3. What is your favorite adult drink?
Bourbon and coke, but on rare occasions.
Feeling Ok, but sore. Incision sites are burning this morning and I feel kinda like I did too many crunches yesterday. Head is very clear this morning and deep breaths hurt. OH WAIT, I HAD SURGERY YESTERDAY!! Go figure.
I think everything in my world is normal. Tom is going back to the shop today. The pressure is on to finish everything by tomorrow night. Sure hope he makes it. Birdhouses and feeders have now taken over the shop, one bedroom, and the dining room. THEY BETTER SELL.
As you can imagine, there is nothing on my schedule for today other than trying to recover. Any suggestions on how to do that are welcome.
Prayers are said and please give us angels around us.
Love you all and really appreciate the texts and prayers yesterday.

1. What is your favorite protein drink? GNC Pro Performance Chocolate-Caramel in my morning coffee How often do you drink one? Twice a day
2. What is your favorite no/low cal drink? Hawaiian Punch Lemon Berry Squeeze flavor packet in my water $1/box of 10 at some groceries and the Dollar store
3. What is your favorite adult drink? Red wine - dry like a Malbec or Merlot
Been cleaning my fanny off all day doing spring cleaning *a-choo!* lots of dust bunnies and cat hair in my house. Suited up and checked on my bees and one hive is going like gang busters with new brood and the other is coming along ok, just not as strong. Spotted the queen on the weaker hive and she looks nice and fat so she just needs to kick it up a notch! The girls have been busy bringing in lots of pollen.
