Happy Thursday Everyone,
Good day everyone, I am so grateful today. Grateful it's thursday....grateful for my WLS....Grateful for waking up this AM. Just plain ole grateful today. We have no guarantees that tomorrow will come for us....we need to be grateful everyday that God allows us to remain here on the earth. Today I am also grateful for my family, friends, OH, the things that I only dreamed of 10 yrs ago when I was looking into having WLS. Grateful for all that comes my way in life. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a blessed day !!!

Not much happening at work.. slow & quiet. Had a great weekend in Amarillo. Got back Monday afternoon. So, it's work today and tomorrow. Friday I have a appt. for a test that my doctor seems to think I need. So, will be off all day. Hope everyone is doing good. Brenda
Good Wednesday Everyone,
Hope you're having a great week and are making plans for the weekend. Today I am SO grateful that my scale is headed in the right direction. I was challenged almost a week ago when I booked another cruise with a friend ( Leaving Nov.2 ) to get off some of my regain. I am a procrastinator and I have had LOTS of stress in my life ( thus the re-gain ) and it is still in my life.....but I have to quit making excuses and get this re-gain off. Stress will probably always be in my life due to my husband's health and disease that he was diagnoised with. I choose to not let this stress make me gain my weight back.....I worked too hard to get it off even with WLS. OK enough of that....today I am grateful for God in my life who gives me strength from day to day to face things I don't want to face, my health, my WLS and Obesity Help. Grateful for these message boards and all the people on them....this was my go to when I began my WL journey 9 1/2 yrs ago ( surgery almost 9 ). Grateful for a friend pushing me to become a OH Support Group leader when I was fairly early in my WLS journey. Grateful for my support group members as well. Grateful for all the support and encouragement on these message boards everyday and for everyone *****ads my posts even though you don't respond. Grateful for today and for second chances on better choices in all areas of our lives everyday. PLEASE share if you would like what you are grateful for today and Be grateful everyday....none of us have guarantees of tomorrow. Have a blessed day !!!

Shameless plug on where and how to spend this Saturday. Weather looks like it will be cooperating. Long a$$ day but lots of small town fun. If you come down bring me a venti latte w/3 pumps each of SF caramel and SF vanilla. 
Fighting crime by fighting grime today.
Go do your thing.
Good Tuesday Everyone,
We ALL have something everyday of our lives to be grateful for. Life offers us no guarantees nor does it guarantee that we will be here tomorrow or for the next hour. We should be grateful for everything that comes our way in life. Today I am grateful that my blood work is now complete for my 9 yr. post op visit in 9 days. Grateful that the technician got me on one stick and that the vein held out for the 10 viles of blood that were taken. Grateful for God's love and grace shown toward me and my family daily. Grateful for my faith, my family & friends, my WLS, my excellent WL surgeon and his amazing staff. Grateful for my support group and for Obesity Help and all the forums. Grateful for life itself today. Please share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a blessed day !!!

Only in Texas on a rainy day would anybody understand the picture of a cow voiding and what it means! For the non-familiar it means it is raining like a cow ******' on a flat rock! Dog would not even get out of the garage this morning. Looks like it will be this way most of the day.
How 'bout them Cowboys! 
Work and staying dry are one and two today.
Keep the umbrella handy!
