Good Monday Everyone,
Hope everyone had a great weekend and is looking forward to starting a new year in a couple of days. I know I am ready to put 2013 behind me and never look back at this year. It was not a good one for me. I am grateful today that 2013 is coming to a end. Grateful for my WLS, Obesity Help, support groups, friends and family. Grateful for and optomistic that this new year will be a good one. So grateful for the lessons that 2013 has taught me so I will know never to let those things happen to me again. Grateful that I finally gave in and went to the doctor and got on blood pressure meds before something happened to me. Grateful for God, my faith and my church family, my husband, family and friends who support and encourage everyday.. Grateful for the peace and hope in my life now and most grateful for my precious almost 17 mo. old granddaughter. PLEASE share if you will what YOU are grateful for today and have a blessed and wonderful day.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Managed to do four miles on the treadmill yesterday and my legs are letting me know about it. Also feeling having stayed up too late to watch the Cowboys end another disappointing season. 
Mini camps start in May.
Work is on top of the agenda for today. That and trying to stay warm!
Go do your thing!
Oh man that stinks. I love your sisters and your cousin too. Tell Shelia I will keep her in my prayers. Hoping the leak test comes out OK. It's hard to believe that you can develop leaks 5 yrs out from RNY. WOW. Thank you for answering my question Saundra.

It is Shelia. She had revision to RNY 5 years ago. Don't know for certain what caused the leaks but she said she got the dry heaves REALLY bad that she had blood shot eyes and she wonders if that caused it. She started having bad pain so they did test and found the leaks. They have taken her down for leak test now.

Good Friday Everyone,
Well....the holidays are almost over and I am so ready for that to happen. Although I love this time of the year and I am so grateful for the holidays but I am always so grateful to get them and all the rich foods behind me. Today I am grateful that each day offers us second chances to make better choices in all aspects of our lives. Grateful for my Faith, Family, WLS, Obesity Help, for being able to do things that 10 yrs. ago I could only dream about. Grateful for freedom and for our military who maybe over seas and not spending this time of the year with their loved ones. Grateful for everything and everyone in my life. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a blessed day.

Hi Saundra,
Which one of your sisters was it that had that happen? I will be praying for her. I am up 2 lbs and I didn't really eat all that much junk. Sometimes I think that stress puts weight on me. LOL I'm glad that Christmas is now behind us and this year is almost over. Looking forward to this coming year...it's gotta be better than 2013. Have a great weekend.

Finish each day and be done with it.
You have done what you could;
some blunders and absurdities have crept in;
forget them as soon as you can.
Tomorrow is a new day;
you shall begin it serenely
and with too high a spirit
to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

Good morning
Well my sisters surgery didn't go as planned, they were not able to fix the leaks laparoscopically and had to open her up so she will be at Baylor for next several days and gets to start new year on medical leave. I am getting ready to head to the hospital to spend the day with her.
Have a great day!

Major holiday mid-week completely through me for a loop this week! Jan put up a two foot tree on a table in the den so we'll have a place to stack gifts for next weekend. Good thing too that I have my work truck with me. Need it to haul the garbage down to the end of the driveway.
Another day of fighting crime by fighting grime. Need to get some exercise in when I get home too.
Have a great weekend!
