Morning all...

I am off to synagogue and then to Liz's for a day of support and time spent with great friends. 

After Liz's back home where I need to do some laundry for Siehara and do some serious packing of her camp stuff.  I found a big duffel bag at Walmart last night, so now I really feel ready to get this packing underway.

Later tonight.. like LATER around 10:30-11, Bron will get here.  He has to wor****il 9:00 ish.. he works at the mall, though, so it's not always 9 when he gets out.  We are going to watch a movie until I no doubt fall asleep in the middle of it.

Tomorrow, my only plans are to relax here with him, pick up the Caines from the airport and maybe go to the pool.

Good Morning Pam & PA;

Today's plans are so exciting - not....

I'm completing my essay for graduate school, the deadline is here.  I have to do it if I want to start this September of this year. 

I am sitting here comtemplating if had I still been overweight would I have wanted to go further than a Bachelors degree.  Probably not.  When I was heavy I knew I was not noticed in the company by senior management.  Now there are doors opening and the sky is the limit.  My age might get in the way, I can't do anything about that.  My health and appearance although I'd like to say never will again hold me back, however, I've yo-yo'ed enough to know never to say never about gaining weight back.  I know as long as I give it my best and follow the rules I have a shot at "never" gaining weight back :-)  So much for my ramblings this morning.  I'm procastinating and keep thinking of everything I could be doing today.  I could come to Liz's and hang out with a great bunch of friends, I could go to NJ to my favorite farmers market and some other outdoor markets.  Alas I have to get back to my boring life of writing......

Hope you all have a great day of support, cooking, seeing Liz, and snuggling with beautiful Mia!

Good morning Pammy - glad to know that you didn't break anything yesterday and made it to work relatively unscathed! :)  Still talking about our JAUNT the other day!  so freaking fun! :)

Getting myself up and ready to start the day - I do not have to work this morning - so I may just hang low in the health center until I decide if I want to go to services or not.  I may make an appearance just to see what unit is leading services this morning.  I want to get out early as I need to make a stop on the way to Liz's - it seems as though my memory card is full - and NO Lisa - I am NOT at home to upload them all to my computer - I don't want them all on my Laptop as it techniquely belongs to the school disctrict of Philadelphia - and they don't need to see all my pictures! :)  I have checked several stores here in the camp area - to no avail - I am hoping Easton has some regular stores that I can find a memory card to purchase PRIOR to the class this afternoon.

Then, of course, LIZ'S!!!!  Can't wait to hug and kiss Liz and of course - Amelia too! :)  I have been really looking forward to this!  I am NOT dragging Larry along - I don't want to worry about what time I need to get back to camp for him. Tonight, both of my girls are in the camp production of Annie.  I was supposed to be heading back into Philly for a night with friends, however, the darn kids take priority - for a change! :)

I hope to see so many of you this afternoon!  Everyone else - have a GREAT Saturday! :)

Good morning all. Sounds like a fun day at Liz's today. Pls take lots of pics to share.

I'm in a crappy mood for some reason even tho the weather is awesome and I'm sitting outside enjoying it. House is still in disarray and am hoping my nephew and his friend get over to move the china cabinet today so I can put my house back together.

Am going to a support mtg this morning at Brinton Lake - most of the post ops are from the Crozer program but like Barix they welcome anyone. I need some new ideas or direction - have gotten complacent with my weight loss and exercise and I know both are big red lights so I need some guidance and motivation.

Other than that no big plans for the weekend other than trying to get out of this funk.

Good Morning PA Friends!

Pam, we will miss seeing your smiling face! I guess we will have to deal with Steffi on our own! LOL!!

Today, Dee and I are going to Liz's for much needed support and friendship. This week has been VERY tough for me. Dad is doing better but there were some difficult times which has made me emotionally drained. I have to say that G-d works in mysterious ways. Dee and I went to Target last night and we ran into Shilpa. She and I talked for a bit which I really needed. Then Lisa FB'd me which I also needed. I have met some AMAZING friends and it is definitely an added plus to having this surgery and losing the weight that I have!

After Liz's I need to get some work done. Working on a music curriculum for the district is a daunting task, but I can do it! I have been teaching for 13 years and I know what works and what doesn't! I must admit that I am flattered that I was chosen, my supervisor must know that I know what I am doing!! I am working with some great people who also know what to do. No slackers!!!

Tomorrow, more work and keeping cool in the AC!
Have a great weekend!

Thoughts and hugs to you and your family about dad.

And of COURSE your supervisor knows that you know what you are doing!  That's a no brainer!
Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses.

Was wonderful meeting you all today at Liz's house.  But I learned very quickly, it is all about Steffi!
