I really need *****fest this week!

The night sweats are killing me!  For the past 2 weeks, I wake up soaked--I change clothes and still rise all wet and sweaty! Then, I am ******g exhausted all damn day and need naps.

My mother's demands are working my last good nerve!  If I don't sell her pants on eBay before Christmas vacation, she won't go with us! Really, so the **** what!!!!!!

Popcorn causes bloating and reactive hypoglycemia for me---I am really outdone now!  I just purchased my Disneyland annual pass holder popcorn bucket for $15 with $1 refills all summer.  YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!! No more popcorn?????  This was my last fave snack........and I don't know anything about moderation with disney popcorn!!

I love meat, I really do!!!  I am the Carnivore Diva!!!  I don't miss the veggies or most of the carbs but if I eat another flimflam flarnit meatball I might lose it!

GOSH, I feel better already!

" If I don't sell her pants on eBay before Christmas vacation, she won't go with us!"

I had to laugh at this (and not at your expense) cuz your Mom's logic is kind of funny, unless she is a pants manufacturer seamstress. Does she have enough pairs of pants that it is going to bank roll her portion of the vacation?  

Now if she is a tailor/seamstress, I get it, then you DO have to sell them because it is her income stream....

Xmas is a LONG way away....

Also, if your mom is causing you stress now, do you really want to go on vacation with her?  vacation is about reducing stress.

But, I feel a lot like that about my mom too..especially with weird unlogical demands that do not meet the level of importance as their consequence...

Skinny Scientist,

She's got plenty to wear--I purchased some new ones for her!  And, I pay for the vacation so go figure!

She is great to vacation with but this is what she does when she wants her way!  And let's not forget, she wants the cash from the eBay sales!

Love her but she is getting on my nerves!

Ewwww night sweats. Have you tried a pillow chilling mat? I've heard good things about them but never tried.

Sparklekitty,

Yep, tried the pillow...didn't know there was a mat.  I will have to look into that.  Thanks.

I'm off my liquids now so I'm a happy camper.

Also not having issue with my acid/gerd. Should be off all meds here in a couple weeks also.

Ok- here is the *****ing

DH's truck needs a new transmission. Its going to be 3K

but it is paid for so I should just deal with it.

also- im really tired today- don't know why

That is expensive.. 3K is a lot to come up wiht in general on short notice. I dont know if it is normal transmission cost or not.

But, that bill alone would wipe out my petty cash in the safety deposit box.

And I already have tremendous credit card debt, so I would be crying...

yeah it sucks but if he wants to drive it - we need to pay for it.

plus the dude we bought it from said it was rebuilt- must have been rebuilt by someone that does crappy work....

If it was rebuilt within a year you may have a transferable warranty on the work.  At the very least the guy who did a substandard job should give you guys a real deal now ...

just a few *****es to share-

• folks that hijack your story and turn it into " all about them"
• Post ops that come on so grateful and philosophical...and then disappear
• the menu posts that totally divert from menus into posting about/sharing/exchanging other topics
• whining about spouses!  Really?  This is a bariatric forum
• the many folks that just do not get that they MUST educate themselves before proceeding with surgery.  Then come here and ask vets questions that they should have asked their surgeon prior to their particular procedure choice
