Good afternoon. Business is OK today, nothing wonderful. Our Haggar Stores are gearing up for Thanksgiving "Black Friday" sales. I might have to put a few extra hrs in our Grapevine store. Not that I work the floor, but they are short a few people and it will be overtime for me. Not ready for the cold weather coming in on Friday. Enjoy your day!

Good Hump Day Everyone,
We ALL have so very much in our lives to be grateful for everyday of our life. Today I am grateful because I go for my 8 yr. check up since my surgery. I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous to step on that darn scale who rules my moods sometimes. LOL But all in all I am so grateful that I do not weight or am I anywhere near the 273 weight that I began my journey with WLS 8 yrs. ago. ( Friday the 22nd is my Surgiversary ). Grateful for every day that God allows me to remain on this earth. I am grateful for so very many things and people in my life but I won't bore anyone today with that. If you are looking into WLS and reading this post. PLEASE let me encourage you to go forward with having surgery. I have NEVER for one second wished that I had not gone through with this life changing surgery. WLS actually gave me the life that I always wanted that a lifetime of obesity had stolen from me. I now do things daily that 8+ yrs. ago I only dreamed of. Best choice ( other than marrying my hubby ) that I have ever made. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a super blessed day !!!

Survived court yesterday. Don't know if it went to the jury or not since I was out of there by lunch time and they still had people to testify. Today is back to the grind. Weather wizards saying it will be getting colder, if not wetter, over next few days. Brrrrrr. Don't know what has upset "Oscar" so much but he has been keeping in the water closet! 
Go forth but hand me another roll of hiney shine before you leave.
I too, am grateful for waking up this morning pain FREE! 4yrs ago I was in so much pain (knees). I had to have a walker & wheelchair to get around. At 19 mos after WLS I was able to have both knees replaced. And can walk again! God has blessed me in so many ways.. I'm grateful for my husband, Richard who took such good care of me when I wasn't able to take care of myself.

Good Tuesday Everyone,
It's a great day to be alive today. LOL Not sure why I said that this AM but it IS true. Today I am grateful that I woke up....breathing and in good heath and pain-free. Grateful that the good Lord has given us second chances on things in our lives. SO grateful today for my WLS and all the choices of WLS today....I only had a choice of RNY or LB. Grateful that friday is my 8 yr. Surgiversary and that I have my 8 yr. check up tomorrow AM. Grateful for ALL the things I can now do pain free that I could only dream of doing before my surgery. Even though I am not where I would like to be ( weight wise )...thank GOD I am NOT where i began my journey 8 yrs. ago. I am grateful for all the people here on OH over the past 9 yrs. since i've been on here. Most who gave me advice and help when I began my journey are not here anymore. Sad to me but that is life. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today. Have blessed tuesday everyone !!!
