What's New THURSDAY?

Finally - It's Friday. What's new with you? Annette  My mistake - it is only THURSDAY!!

well you made me go look at the calendar....it is really Thursday , but you knew that didnt you? lol 

Jan - OH NO!! I honestly thought it was Friday. I am so embarrassed. That messes up my entire day.  Annette

 I am fighting with cookies! Not the food type but the computer variety. Bakery cookies I understand but these computer thingies are driving me nuts.  In a few minutes I go for my 18 months lab work. The changes are still amazing after all this time. Simple activites such as running up and down steps still surprise me. Before WLS I couldn't walk up our stairs without panting, sweating and gasping for air. Tom had to carry my purse because the extra weight made my knees scream with pain. Now I can zip up and down with no problems. Getting dressed was torture. I always wondered if I could still get the outfit over my ever widening hips. Today I wonder if my pants will stay up or fall down.  No putting this off any longer. It is time to get jabbed.  Annette

that is what i am going to be doing this morning too, lab work. thought i had better get it done while i was thinking about it. I havent had it done six months ago like i was suppoe to so hope all is good. I feel good but sometimes that can be deceiving.  It has been pouring rain since yesterday afternoon. Im not sure how much but all the lakes down here are still completly full from the flooding we had about 2 weeks ago. This may start the flooding all over again. They were warning the people that got flooded last time to not go back and start working on their homes yet since the lakes were still so full and a lot of rain like what is predicted for last night and for the next 3 days will do it all again.  really dont know what today will be like , i guess we could go over and start ripping up the carpets out of the house we bought to rent out. We have quite a bit of work to do there.  Mainly TLC , i think we will put down laminate flooring, we can get seconds at a discount store for only 79cents a sq foot , cant beat that.  Anyway with it raining dont know what else we can do .

Well gee Annette. You pulled one of my tricks. I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who gets confused by the days. They all seem to run into each other after awaile. I didn't have a very spectacular day yesterday. Same old same old. Work, attending irritating meetings for work, and then home. My friend and I were supposed to go to dinner, but he had to cancel. We will try for Friday evening.  I teach again tonight so it will be another long day. I do hope to spend some more time with LP. That makes these extra work hours worth it. Have a great day!

Man Annette, You scared me telling me it was Friday!!!!! I had to think twice. I wish I didnthave to go into work today the birds are singing and I want to go to the beach and veg!!!!! But no I have to work from 12- to 8 today. Oh well life goes on, well off to get ready to work. Carla 

Good Morning Annette and everyone........ Annette .............you had me worried for a minute. I knew I felt rested when I woke up but I didn't think I slept a whole extra day!! I know exactly what you are talking about walking the stairs, getting dressed , still hoping clothes will fit.......I could have written that part of your post. Stairs are a breeze now and I too worry is my pants will stay up or fall down!!  WLS is the best!!Good luck with your labs today....I am sure they will be just fine. I will say a little prayer too. Jan C......good luck on your labs today too!! A little prayer headed your way! Aime.....I am so glad you have been able to spend more time with LP.....what a blessing! Judy G..........you be carefull on that motorcycle....hang on tight and wear a helmet!!! I am saying a prayer for you that you have a safe drive to and from Ohio. Have a great time but don't forget to come back to us!! Don't forget to tell Rick I said hello!! I will be waiting to see those pics!! As for me .....I have plenty of things I need to finish up for my job and packing to do for my trip to Iowa. I was going to leave later this afternoon but I don't think I will be leaving until very early tomorrow morning.  Nic was so thrilled with all the responses he got for his birthday on his Caring Bridge site. Many thanks to those that sent notes and good thoughts and wishes for him!! That is about it for me today...need to get working on things. Have a beautiful day everyone! Hugs, connie d

HAHA - wishful thinking! Good morning Annette and Friends! Same stuff - different day GRRR. The concert in the park last night was so nice, classical pieces by Sousa, Bernstein and several others.  Even better was the company, our over 50 group from church.  George and I stopped at Subway and picked up a sandwich for him and salad for me for our picnic dinner.  Most of the others had picnic dinners too.  Some brought wine, cheese, chips, cookies, etc. to share.  If we hadn't been going right from work, I'd have brought something too.  wouldn't you know, the only rain in the entire New Orleans area was directly over the concert in the park.  Wet dinner, wet feet, wet jeans - YUK, but still we had fun. Today I'm leaving work early, I have a work related errand to take care of, and going home right after.  I've put in enough extra time this week.  They'd better not say a word. Speaking of work - gotta get back to it. Have a great day. Debbie
