I don't like when I get crazy dreams from medication. I hope you were able to get some rest.

Thanks! Glad I took it well before bedtime since it had a massive half-life for me. I was not functional this morning. And had a marathon dream about a snake that kept repeatedly attacking me to the point of smashing through glass like a massive, reptilian missile. Sometimes it's fun to have dreams and sometimes, not so much. :)

Yikes, that sounds horrible in my opinion.

When I started melatonin, I use to have crazy vivid dreams. I kinda liked it. I no longer get those. Hopefully, you can get settled in with the new medication and those dreams will subside.

The Galapagos trip would be wonderful. When you say it is booked do you mean it is not available because it is full?

I assume the license had an old pre-WLS picture on it. Mine does and it doesn't really even look like me! A wonderful NSV for both of us!

Yep, he came back and told me the initial date I asked for was booked. I asked him about additional dates with my requirements for the rest of the year and he just came back and said nothing in December. I'm working with another operator now whose website breaks down the trips by cabin type so I can see whether the one I need is booked rather than having to ask someone to do that for me.

I now have a tentative hold on an eastern islands itinerary in December. Waiting for final confirmation...and I'm excited! If I go, it would be on the Mary Anne Galapagos and I like quirky, unique trips and ships.

And yes, old pictures on both my license and Zoom/work stuff. I haven't been called out on my license or name badge yet but absolutely have with Zoom since the background photo pops up until I get the video turned on, at which point it's like an instant transformation moment, especially for those I haven't seen in a while. I can tell some are trying to find ways to approach bringing it up and others just toss caution to the wind these days and boggle. Those tend to be mentors rather than clients, though!

when I was a couple years out, one of the teens who checked people into my gym accused me of not being me. They had a picture of me in their database from when I weighed well over 300 lbs, and at the time I weighed in the 130s. I had to show him my drivers license to prove it was me. That's when I decided I'd better have them take a new photo....

Pre WLS I had a Colorado license; moved to AZ and had and AZ license, when I hit goal I was back in CO and had to get my new license. DMV flagged it for not being me because it was so far off my last CO license. I had to do an interview and provide multiple non photographic proof. It was delightful and awesome:-)

Haven't asked about my license yet but I did ask to retake my work photo. They said it was against policy unless I lost my badge. Guess who's losing her badge soon? Least they'll be following policy...

Good morning all. I can tell it's spring, because instead of the sun rising behind a wall, now it's in the middle of my window. It's like having a sun dial.

It's supposed to hit 60 degrees today, so I'm going to do some yard work for the first time. Yay!

QOTD. Unless I have a deadline, I'm happier if I don't set a specific goal, and just try to do as much as I can. I often don't do what I thought I would, but if I get a bunch of other things accomplished, I'm good.

I'm thinking of doing AHAW next week. Who wants to join me?
