Good Tuesday Everyone,
Hope your having a great week. I know mine improved when I left my home yesterday after being cooped up since thursday due to severe icing on our roads here in Texas. I am SO grateful to have gotten out and went and had a "little" retail theraphy. Today I am most grateful for my WLS and all the choices for different surgeries... for my family and friends who are like family.....my faith in God and answered prayers....my church family.....my husband's job....for being able to be a homemaker and getting to stay home to raise all three of my sons....grateful for my home even though it isn't big or fancy it is paid for. Grateful for life and especially for my health which I will never take for granted. Grateful for OH which has been my lifesaver so many times when I had questions and turned here for the answers. SO grateful for all the amazing people on these message boards everyday trying to help others in their WLS journeys. Grateful that Christmas is almost here. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a amazing and super blessed day !!!
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

If you are/were caught in the ice hopefully you can finally get out of the house.
Long day on agenda. Work today with a City Council meeting tonight. One of the items on the agenda is "flogging the code enforcement officer". 
More experts at doing my job that have no idea what all it entails.
Pull on you long johns before you leave the house. You'll need 'em!
Good Morning Don, Saundra and Karla,
Don glad you dodged the bullet with the weather....I wish I had. I have not been out of my house since thursday....I have cabin fever. My youngest son went to my oldest son's house on friday and hasn't been home since. So for the most part I've been home alone since my hubby kept going to work everyday in the ice. Hopefully I can venture out this afternoon sometime when some of the ice melts. We had about 2-3" of ice. I fell on the ice going to the mailbox on saturday and then ended up with a stomach virus. Glad that only lasted 1 day and I never did see if there was mail. I fell in the street which made it even worse and barely got back to my house. Glad you had a good weekend. I haven't Christmas shopped for anyone but my granddaughter so far. I need to get out and get busy. LOL Have a blessed and safe day.

Good Monday Everyone,
We ALL have so very much in our lives to be grateful for everyday of our lives. Whether it is for something huge or something very very tiny....it doesn't really matter. We should ALL be so very grateful for the things that come into our lives everyday. I have been iced in my house since thursday and am about to go stir crazy...hopefully I can get out today. I don't live in the mountains but in Texas. When we get 2" of ice of the roads....lets just say almost everything comes to a standstill. I am grateful that our temps went barely above freezing yesterday and melted some of this junk. Grateful it's suppose to get even warmer in the next few days. Grateful that I did get some Christmas cookies baked and froze during this ice storm. Grateful for my WLS, friends and family. Obesity Help and all the amazing peope on these message boards. Grateful for Christmas coming and for the upcoming New Year. PLEASE share if you will what YOU are grateful for today and have a blessed and safe day.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Woke up before alarm as usual and can't seem to go back to sleep, not sure why I bother to even set it.
Sister and I have to go into Addison office at 10 to get our new laptops today. She is picking me up around 8 which should give us plenty of time to get there.
Have a great day! Saundra

What is a little "fart" humor among WLS friends? 
Best we did was a dusting of snow Saturday morning. Not enough to hinder us going to Conroe for a birthday party. Managed to knock out some of the shopping while we were in civilization.
Today is work and try to get some treadmill time in.
Bundle up and go forth!
Pass the nitrous around!
Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!
