Topic: RE: Tuesday June 9th --- Share and Care!
Going to vent! But just a little. Work sucked again today. I ended up blowing up at a co-worker (not something I normally do) becaue she was complaining, whining and generally being miserable about the amount of work she had to do because the doctor didn't call. She decided that all we do on the day shift is nothing but leave stuff for her to do. She made me so angry. I let her have it then went directly to my director of nursing and confessed. The DON said it was about time I stood up to my co-worker. I guess I've been kinda meek when it comes to crap like this. At least I've got the support of the DON. Probably not the best way for me to handle the co-worker tho. Oh well, tomorrow is another day.
Scale is stuck. Going to the dietician Friday. Maybe she can help me out. I bet the work stress is having something to do with the stuck scale and slight gain.
I hope everyone else is having a better week than me. Thanks for listening.
Love ya, Deb

I sort of have a vent.... forgive me because I have been up since yesterday morning and now am dealing with my 2 yr old and the 4 yr old home care baby and they are all up in each others faces and driving ME nuts.
Yes, my surgery is next Monday.... however, NO, I am not anxious, I am not excited, I am not having a 2 (or 1) week freak... It's as much to me as a doctor's appointment at this point. I don't have anything I really want to talk about, no, I didn't do anything to "prepare"..... etc., etc., etc.
Since I am a revision and have been living the RNY life for the past 7 years, to me this is NOT a big deal. Also, as I have said, I am NOT taking weeks (plural) off from work. I can't. I get NO paid time off and if I don't work my mortgage doesn't get paid.
I have had 5 open surgeries previously (gallbladder, RNY, plastics and 2 c-sections) and KNOW I bounce back quickly.
That all being said, yes, I will miss dumping. I like the feedback in knowing I will feel like crap if I eat something I shouldn't.
Ok, that's my vent. Thanks for listening... I will now go take another ativan and see if I can chill

Good Morning!
I'm a little pressed for time this morning but I at least wanted to wish you all the best day!
Anyone have any great news? Something they need to vent about?

Topic: RE: Round 2 --- Coming to and end!
I have contacted my people to see who wants to participate next quarter and I think it will be the most fun cause those who are participating are really interested in doing their part! (not that there aren't a few good ones who are opting out for the summer) I will assign new pals at the end of the month.
Anyone who needs to contact me can do so here or email me at [email protected]
Hope you all have a great summer!
