What the ##@@$$$????? What gives??????

Chewed up shoes for my monthly surgery anniversary today? 4/5/2013 I am officially 6 years and 2 months post RNY and this is my gift????? Chewed up shoes? YIKES! I just turned my back to press my pants and this is what I get?????? WHAT GIVES ##@@$$**!!!!!

No thanks to 3 little furry imps .... yes the other shoe suffered the same fate by Pierretta who is in the far corner and not captured in the picture .... when caught this is the look I got....

big eyes that melted my heart .... WHAT GIVES????? and lets not talk about spraying stuff with the bitter apple spray they sell in the pet store because guess what? THEY.LOVE.IT ... it is like sour patch candy for them ... OMG .. .we need an intervention here ... just noticed the CHEWED UP legs of my kitchen table ... COME ON GUYS ... give the old lady a break!!!!! after all this is my SURGIVERSARY!!!!! and again I am rocking spring ... this time with my awesome finds from Consignment Originals in Orange, CT .... I AM LOVING FRIDAY ... and YUP .... I AM WEARING MY CHEWEY SHOES .... before tossing them at day's end that is.... they are RUINED!

This goofy thread is my entry in my digital empowerment journal 'A Picture a Day Keeps the Pounds and the Inches Away.. I can see it, I can feel it' .... on my walk away from morbid one day at a time... one choice at a time ... looking forward to an awesome weekend ... on tomorrow I will participate in a Zumba-thon benefit for the MS Foundation and on Sunday I will participate in an awesome 90 minute BOKWA demo ... along with mega fun things including home improvement projects along the way.... tonight I will have some awesome time finishing up my corner wall in the basement while I rack my brains to do something with this piece that scared the daylights out of me that I found down in the unfinished basement of our huge new OLD house .... three floors of awesome space ...french doors and hardwood floors and a huge basement just for us ... I am loving it....

I am going to attempt to do something with this .... I thought it was a coffin once I removed stuff that was blocking it and cleaned around it ... YIKES ... but my friend says it is a cistern ... so I am going to uncisternize it and make it a sitting something something ... I am going to paint it first ... then maybe make a cushion to go over it... who knows .... until we put in the drop ceiling and the raised floor I am going to have some fun... 

Creative IDEAS are welcome ... what can I do with this???

Your shoes made me laugh, my dogs chew up everything, if you want it safe put it away.  Everyday they ruin something new, today was the woodwork in the picture window.  Dogs are fun.  lol  I am trying to will myself well today to get up and celebrate my surgery anniversary today or as I like to call it my re-birthday.  Eight years today, and still at my goal.

WOOT!!!! CONGRATS on your 8 year surgery anniversary ... 8 years and at goal that is just AWESOME!!! I am determined to be at goal or below goal when I get to my 8 year mark too ....

My six year checkup is this coming Tuesday and I am strutting in there a whooping 5 pounds less than last year's visit ...I dropped some weight without even trying fretting over my sister .... Dogs are indeed fun but my three need an INTERVENTION LOL ... OMG they DESTROYED the wicker linen basket ... I think they believe they are woodchucks... 

I went to Washington DC for a little vacation for my anniversary.  I went to get my nails done Friday morning, came home and told my boyfriend lets go now, he looked at me like I was nuts.  He said you just got out of your deathbed from the flu and now you want to drive to DC.  I said yes.  lol  And we did.

See.

Wow, those are really beautiful pictures!  You have a real talent for photography.  I always love your swan photos too. 

Thanks, I now have puppies so all my swan photography went to the dogs.  lol

LOL.  I love the doggie pictures too as I am an animal lover!  Beautiful dogs!  I bet they are a mess! 

It was funny this morning, my boyfriends mom was like why on earth did we get two dogs again, they are just nuts together.  I love it, but its not my house they are ruining so I guess that's the difference.

Congratulations to both you lovely ladies on your surgiversarys. I hope I can be at l that far out too. You are both inspirations!

Baring anything out of your control you will be right there too Karen ... I have no doubt about it.... IMO we can  have fun with it and rock it mindful always of why we got here in the first place ..I am totally determined to take care of this awesome life saving decision I made over 6 years ago .... I am definitely not going back if I can help it ...  Sistas on the journey!!!!
