Good morning KAREN and all! Not much different in my corner of the world. Work load is full/family is healthy/I am blessed (I have to repeat that to myself over and over, like a chant, sometimes!)

I finally invested in an umbrella (red-with Mickey and Minnie on it), ao all this rain will probably STOP now!

Tonight we are having a dinner to celebrate my mom's 75th birthday. Her bday is actually tomorrow, but she's leaving for her annual GAlveston vacation in the morning-priorities, ya know! She is so UN-75. She still works-drives from Burlseon to Dallas every day, to work in Acct Payable for Sewell Cadillac. This is the "work stock" I come from. I'll never get to retire. They'll just find me dried up inmy car someday...probably on the phone...

Hope everyone has a special day. Continued prayers for those in need.

I LOVE Y'ALL AND THERE'S NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT!

LOL - more likely to see your fingers on the texting boards instead nowadays !!  lol   But I know what you mean !! 
  • Pease check out Dr. Connie Stapleton's Website. A lot of good information on there for all WLS patients regardless of the surgery you chose.  Good luck to all and I'm here for you if you want to send me an email.  I'll answer it as soon as possible.

Good morning! I'm going to sing "Walking on Sunshine" today to ward off the rain. lol.

Today I'm seeing a new foot doctor-same practice but my doctor left. I could have followed him-and I might still- but I decided since its been a year and I"m still in pain, that I'm going to get a second opinion. I should have done this a while back. Hopefully he'll have some ideas for me, because this pain is just insane.

I'm tired of this humid weather! 88 percent right now outside. It reminds me of growing up south of Houston.

I hope everyone has a great day today!!!

Alissa, I look forward to hearing how that goes.  I wanted to let you know my dr. gave me a "aircast" plantar fascia brace about 1.5 months ago...when he first gave it to me, I looked at it and thought that there was no way that would help!  But it really helped more than anything we've tried lately.  Might be something to try if you are still dealing with PF.  I just looked online and you can buy it for $37....I paid $120 through the dr.  yuck!

Anyway, here's the webaddress where I found it:  foot-supports/

I wi**** were just plantars pain- that I have orthopedics for. Unfortunatley I have to have another surgery because the screws they put in my 2 bones- well one has sunk down below the bone and is sticking in a nerve everytime I take a step. He is going to remove all 4 screws just to be safe because the others could move too. It's a simpler surgery and I will only have to miss 2 days or so of work and he said that plus some injections after should relieve the pain. Uuuuhgghhhh! I don't want more surgery but if it will help then I guess that's what I'll do.

Good morning!  I have the day "off" today...am planning on exercising and then going to Lowe's and Walmart when Ben decides to get up.  Today is one of his 2 days off this week.  I'm sure I still have 2-3 hours before that happens.  We're going to make me a new headboard today...an upholstered one.  I mowed for him yesterday so he has to help me today.

Gina...got a funny pic of you in your car at 80 still working!

Prayers for all who need them.

For all you Dallas area folks...welcome to the world of constant humidity like the coastal/East TX/Houston area ALWAYS has!

Have a great Thursday!

Karla

I was born in Stinkadena, and I've lived in Houston off and on several times since then... I don't mind the weather there but the family didn't like living in the 'big' city... LOL
