What's on your (PHOTO) Friday Menu?
Good Morning! Happy Fri-yay! It sounds like you?ll have a nice weekend. I have an appointment for blood work tomorrow morning and then not much else. It is alarming to realize just how often this stuff happens. The insurance adjuster came by and got us the quote we need to start contacting repair places. He did warn us that most places are not taking cars until about a month out. I am going to see if one of the places we work with at the dealership can take it but it's about 30 mins from where we live so I don't know if towing it that far would work with them and insurance.
Today is my 9 year surgiversary, I am going to take some time over the weekend to 1.) acknowledge how far I've come and 2.) determine where I want to be. I've got probably about 15-20 pounds I'd like to drop but haven't wanted to make the changes, mostly the little bites here and there not planned for. Thank you all for being here and supporting one another, it's truly priceless.
QOTD: We had usually a main meat dish, a vegetable, and a starch or something like spaghetti. I remember things like sloppy Joe's and SOS, both I did not like. We always had milk to drink.
TSS: 9 years

Happy surgiversary! Yea, I'm kind of the same. I'm currently 10 lbs overweight and would love to be back in a normal BMI range again, but I know how hard it is to lose weight when you're within 10-20 lbs of your goal. Tons of work for an excruciatingly slow loss. I'm always asking myself if it's worth it, or if I'm OK just staying where I'm at. I'm of two minds on this question...

Oh wow, that's am amazing comparison picture! Happy surgiversary to you. Look at the difference years can make. It's good to take the time to review the past, present, and future. You've come so far!
That's some nasty damage from the hit and run. Looks like your car shops are similar to ours. I have a September 11th drop off for repairs from the semi truck damage last month. They said all the reputable shops are backlogged. Fingers crossed your connections can get you in.
