Off to the doc we go .. my week ... Snippets of my journey....
Off to the doc ...errr ... to the vet that is ... Petunia and FiniBeau (Beau for short) two of my awesome eight ferrets are off to the vet ... it is time for their shots and checkup ... and away we go ... like this ... no age hang ups for me ... at 50+ I plan to rock ..and at 90+ I am going to keep on rocking with my designer's depends and customized heels ....
At 5 1/2 years post op I am living life to the fullest just like I did before but much more now with health and mobility and a heart to do onto others YET should I fall short I am getting up... repenting and keeping it moving ... it is all good.... these are snippets of my week so far... this morning started with a 5 mile run to the beach and the next town line over and back home ... I love love love to run ... having been on the track team in school I am just thrilled to be able to hit the pavement in a run and I do every time the opportunity arises ... I wasted many years being mobility impaired my joints buckling under my weight ... but since WLS that has changed...
On Thursday I chilled after work and I did my nails myself ... I swear this is a coincidence LOL... they match my frock LOL
I went to work yesterday in a red Ralph L dress rocking my comfy red and brown heels ...
and I compared it to me in a red dress prior to WLS...
Last night my DH and I went out with friends from our 'Oldies Keeping the Flame Going Group' ... we went to an oldies club and then met up for a night of fun in Norwich at the Sun ... WOOT ... I got red sevens with a wild joker on the dollar slot ... taking my winnings at taking the teens from my church group shopping later ... WOOT! fun fun fun... I went totally hoochie like this...
I am off to have a glorious weekend ... I called my family back home and all is well within the cir****tances so far ... I checked on the shops and all is good ... so I am going to relax and enjoy the rest of the day.... being MINDFUL and dedicated to my health, happiness, family, friends and ferrets ....WOOT ... living and loving ... it certainly feels good...
Remembering me ... the same woman in a smaller frame ... seasoned by good and bad experiences and still learning new things each day ... I am a work in progress....
My before keeping me grounded in today ... one day at a time ... one step at a time ... I do not want to go back to 5 co-morbidities and limited mobility .. it is not about looks I CHOSE to look AWESOME at 327 pounds and today maintaining at a total loss of 203 pounds less than that I CHOOSE to look and feel awesome too....
These awesome words were shared with me and I choose to live by them "don't carry your mistakes around with you. Instead, place them under your feet and use them as stepping stones....
Thanks for allowing me to share.... WISHING A LOVELY WEEKEND TO ALL!!!!

Thank you Sue ... I pretty much posted and ran and got into all kinds of mischief LOL ... left with 8 ferrets at home and now there is an addition .... my DD and I just placed her in the pen and said nothing to my DH ... this morning he was wondering how come our dark ferret was on a leash but in the pen also ... my DD had to finally tell him that there was a new furry baby in the ferret circus ... I don't know how he missed it the new addition Pandora is an itty bitty teeny thing ... and we all fell in love with her... Now I am thinking I am the little old lady who lived in a shoe LOL...
Nell the critters got an awesome check up ... I bought them back home ... then I went to Zumba ... came home all sweaty and took a shower and DD whisked me off to lunch at a restaurant in Orange ... then I asked her to run me up the street to Petco to pick up a large bag of liter for the guys ... next I know DD hands me a warm itty bitty little fuzzie bundle ... oh why oh why? I could not resist ... and now Pandora #9 came home .... she is adorably sweet... so yesterday I was tied up .. with a new family addition...
Love the nails, they look really professional!! ;-)
