*** PHREAKING PHILLIES PHRIDAY roll call!!!!!! ***

Wow, Nicole, that is just awful about your sister and niece.  I can imagine how those calls create such emotional upheaval in your life.  Those kind of calls are not easy to just forget.  I hope they can find some peace in their life.

Hugs and prayers coming to you and your family.

Is there someone local you can contact to get involved? Maybe professionals? Law enforcement? If there are suicidal threats, can you call a local crisis line?   Not sure what else you can do.. I'm so sorry you and your family are going through this.

   WHOA! I don't even know what else to say. That's not right. Your sister totally dumped on you and when your night is supposed to wind down...you can't really do anything (sounds like they don't live nearby)...the potential guilt she placed on you should something go wrong...omg...it's not right.

Feeling super bad for you right now. wow. 

Oh Nicole, you and your family will be in my thoughts.  What a way to end your day.

Hope today and your weekend is much better.

Nicole,
Thoughts and prayers going out for your niece.

HOW ABOUT THOSE PHILLIES!!!  What a great game.  It is still a long shot, but at least they have a shot!

It seems I am eating less and less every day.  Dr. Boorse has ordered an upper GI series for Tuesday with an office visit after.  I am living on protein shakes, vitamins and soup.  And if I eat the soup too fast that gets stuck!  I hope I don't have a stricture.

The store is SUPER busy, I AM NOT COMPLAINING, but I am wiped out every day.  It is a lot of work tagging all the new stuff coming in, and now keeping up with the markdowns.  I am thinking ahead to when I can hire some help, but I can't do it yet. 

In spite of the fact that I am not eating much, I seem to be in a stall for the past week or two.  I guess I was due for that.  But I am so happy to have lost as much as I have, 72 lbs.  I am shopping in my closet for things that haven't fit for so long! 

Tonight hubby and I have a date to go out for soup and then to Kohls, we got a 30% off coupon this week.  Then home to catch the end of the Yankee game. 

Hope everyone has a GREAT day!

Peace,
Deb 

Deb, Siehara and I can come over and help you out (strictly volunteer hours), if you need some help.  We can give you a few hours each wee****il you can afford to pay someone.  Heck, I'd be a willing volunteer to be a PT employee when you are ready..

Lisa, that is so nice of you!  It's not unmanageable for me yet, but I'll keep you in mind!  Please stop in and visit when you can!

Hey all!!!

Busy morning for me.  I'm meeting a friend/former co-worker for breakfast, then having a bone scan.  (My family doc wants one for a baseline since my mom has osteoporosis and I'm malabsorptive from wls.  Deductible has been met, so sure I'll have the test.)  I also need to run a couple of errands and put laundry away.

Spent most of yesterday with a friend who altered some clothes for me.  I picked up a 2 suits at the Goodwill outlet that will be perfect for interviews, but 1 jacket was a bit too big.  She also gave me a couple of pairs of shoes since I realized that some of my shoes are now too big.

Have a great day, all!!!  Peace and strength to all!!!

 You know, with the shoes...my size isn't less, but the width sure is! Ballet flats don't look like duck feet anymore. I've HATED round toe flats since forever and this season, I've got my first pair and they don't look laughable any more.
