Funky Friday Roll CAll

Where are all the early birds???? 
Yeah it is Friday and I actually have a decent and calm weekend, shaping up. Today I have clients back to back all morning so I am gonna be busy but that is good. Then I am heading out to the Green Dragon with my home girl.,,can't wait to see her. Tonight not sure. Been traveling on weekends alot lately so it will be a nice break. 

My client is doing well being d/c today. She is on to her new life.

Hope you all have a good friday and stay dry.

Hi PA!

The kids arrive today!  We will have fun in the house for the next five days!  I still have the kitchen to clean.  I have to work too.  I just hope I beat them to the house!  Olga's tonight for live Jazz.

I have let myself go.  I don't know why. 

It sounds like your support group is growing - I can't think of a better place to bring up your last comment about 'letting yourself go' - it always helps to talk those things out so maybe you can do that in support group? I know I've had times like that when I feel that way but can't figure out why...all part of the process I guess.

Have fun with the kids - maybe that'll bring you out of it!

Hi,

No, I don't feel comfortable being too candid in my support group.  Yes, I have said that I needed to get back on track but I think, as a leader, I need to find my support elsewhere.  There are boundries I need to follow as a leader.  No, I am honest to a "T" but cautious as to how much of me I reveal.  That's just me.

Just my own opinion on my take as a support group leader. I think to be honest about our own faults and struggles help members of our groups see we are human and not above the struggles.

From my own experience I had a break down unplanned at a support group meeting and the feedback was above amazing. The main thing I heard was that it made us seem human because at times they tend to see us at the perfect people of this surgery. Which is not true.

Good Mornring All. We are hanging out at home today. One of my friends is coming to visit at lunchtime but that's all we have planned! I am looking forward to it. Amelia decided we needed to be up at 6 this morning. My Mom called a little after 11 to get me know they made it to Alaska safe and sound - 9 1/2 hours on a plane - yuck! Today they are going to the North Pole. Anyone that knows my Mom knows she is a Santa freak so this is going to be a HUGE thing for her. I expect the first box of purchases to be shipped home today lol

That is so neat that they are taking this trip. I hope they have fun and take lots of pics

When my Mom was going through chemo my Dad told her to plan any trip she wanted, she picked Alaska. They are doing a week on land, going between 4 different resorts, then a week on a cruise. Oh and not to worry about the pics, they got there around 9pm (local time) last night and I am sure she already has 200 pictures! lol

It is not just Friday but a Friday the 13th.  This shall be a good day.  I am one week from VSG surgery.  I feel great probably too good if that is possible.  I am going to  take the day for adventure.  Allow the day to move me as it wants to.  Visit some family and friends, relax, live life for today. 

This early bird got in at 2:30 this morning and woke up at 6:45, just in time for work.  I am not as young as I used to be... .LOL.. bring on the coffee! . We didn't end up at karaoke.  We went to Pig Pen, where I had spent my birthday.  The karaoke there was lame, but the dancing was pretty cool.  I went with a long-time friend of mine and a few of his friends.  It was pretty fun!


I'm working til 3:30--going over to the drug store on  my lunch to pick up the paper Rx for one of Siehara's meds to send to the campmeds place.. I keep forgetting. 

After work, taking a much needed NAP

Tonight I am going to head either to the karaoke place I went to after my reunion or out dancing with my old neighbor.  I am pretty sure it is going to be the dancing place. 

Saturday morning is synagogue, followed by a wedding in Philly Sat night... I decided not to drive into the city.  I'll ride in with David and Sarah.  That way I won't be the one driving and I can sleep or at least relax in the car so I am not completely exhausted Sunday morning when it's time to go pick up Siehara from camp!!!!

Yes, I am trying to get in every last moment as a single, child-free woman.  I'll sleep Sunday.. lol
