Sunday WLS Express
I have a Freedom Climb at our church's climbing tower today. I said I'd go about 9, but it may be 10 before I get there since Ben is home. He has to head back to College Station. The climb doesnt start until church is out at noon. They do dinner on the grounds. At least we have good weather. I'll be pooped when I get home at 5 or so.
Have Good day!

Good morning, KARLA and all!
I slept in, until 07:00 today, and it felt GOOD-even almost slept all the way thru, from 23:00, last night..I DO love my sleep !
Had a GREAT day yesterday..VIVIAN and I went to Austin, to attend their support group. They knew I was going, but we were going to surprise NINA, with VIV coming (they haven't seen each other in yrs)...well WE were the ones surprised, cuz N was out of town, and NOT there..lol..well, serves us right, for trying to be sneaky!! We had wonderful time of SUPPORT anyway. I met a new friend, named PATTI, who is 3 yrs out, and is now a competing wt lifter and personal trainer. I also got to see MICHAEL (Liquidman), and CORINA (remember her? Gorgeous girl, who first joined OH when she 14-had a band-is now 19 and has a sleeve). Of course, the ever fabulous JENNIFER was there, to lead the group and had a very inspirational program about "Motivation", with lots of conversation/feedback. It was well worth the 3 hrs, each way. there and back, and it's the first time VIV and I ever got to have one:one conversation and I absolutely, totally enjoyed it!! She is a remarkable lady-talking/listening to her will make the miles just FLY by!!!
Remember I said I was kinda outlining some thoughts about being a 10 year post op, so I could share them today? Well..guess what dorkfish left them on her work computer, and her last day of work was Friday??? The thoughts are still rambling around in my head (lots of room there)...I'll gather some again, and still get them posted..maybe by tomorrow..so much has happened the past 10 yrs...
Birthday party for 8 yr old friend this afternoon...REALLY hoping nobody dares me to jump on the jumphouse...I really have a problem passing on a well placed dare...
Hope everyone gets a chance to be with people they love today..and gets a chance to "regroup"..be kind to yourself today..YOU are very special to me

Awe....thank you for those kind words about me Gina. It is very touching and THANK YOU for inviting me to go to the meeting with you. I really enjoyed it and meeting Michael and Patty and seeing Cornina and Jennifer again. It was a BEAUTIFUL day and it was wonderful getting to know Gina better. This week I will be heading back that direction on thursday for the Teen Challenge banquet on thursday night and then friday my son, myself and his GF are planning on going to Sea World. SO I have a busy week on the horizon too. Happy Surgiversary Gina. Hope you have many many many more very successful years to inspire us. Geezzz that sounds like your dying. LOL Glad you well and looking great. Anyway I've been up since 3:30 baking things for our church cafe for this morning. Sundays are ALWAYS busy for me. Speaking of church.....I need to get off here and get heading that direction to make coffee. Everyone have a fabulous day and enjoy our cooler weather while it lasts.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CAN NOT CHANGE; COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS THAT I CAN; AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!! THIS IS MY DAILY PRAYER.

Today is my "Friday" at work! Since I'm going out of town tomorrow the dog gets a bath and is going to spend a couple of days with "doggy mama".
Found a place in Athens that makes a fairly good cup of coffee!! Not the real deal but it is a fix. Brought an extra one home and now wish I had brought two.
Never, and I mean NEVER, trust a fart!!
We were busy yesterday- ran tons of errands, walked some for exercise, went out for supper. So today will be more relaxed.
Hope everyone has a great day today!
