Weekend WLS Express
Happy Saturday morning! Hope this finds everyone healthy-and COOL! I went by my mom's, to feed her dog, yesterday, and spent some pool time, but as I was floating, the float was BARELY moving-no breeze-NADA-no ripples in the water-NADA-miserable...crap...forced me to get out the noodles and actually....like...move...like...exercise...like burn calories...and then I noticed some weeds at poolside, so off I go to pull those...look, there's a monkey!...I hope I remembered to feed the dog...
Was a rough, emotional week around here, but it what it is, and I try to be a person who doesn't dwell on things she can't change (or people). I'm good at "giving it to God", but bad at not trying to "take some of it BACK"..it's like I think HE has too much to do already, to be worrying about my crap...
Richard and Corbin are gone, until next Friday, to Galveston (well, Surfside Beach-close enough). My family is up to 16 out of 32 condos, I think,on a time share thing, this year. My older brother has the majority of them. His kids call him "Slum Lord Daddy"..nice slums! Chris went to Lubbock, with friends, for the weekend. I'm going to Irving, sometime later, and spend some time with Charlene. I haven't done that in a long, long time. I think it will make us both feel better...
Hope everyone gets some well deserved rest, this weekend..well, except KARLA--she doesn't EVER rest..lol...
DON--hoping to see some "after" pics of your home renov projects

We Can Do Hard Things
OH mobile version is working this morning.
Slept a little late this morning, felt good not having to be up earlier for anything.
I did get in the pool again last night and did some exercise. I think I missed on day last week. Scales still hanging in the middle of my goal range so I should not complain but would really prefer lower range of goal.
No plans for the day but I am sure we will find some way to go spend some money.
Have a great day!

Well...lemme see...looks like it's SUNDAY afternoon now..a little after noon...
I had a GREAT visit with CHARLENE yesterday, at her apt, in Irving. TRACEY went with me, and it was like old times-the 3 "Sistahs" laughing/interrupting/talking over each other. Of course we talked about all of y'all..about everyone we ever knew..about how much we miss everyone...wondering where everyone is nowadays..wondering if everyone is missing the group support as much as we are missing it...I did not get back to my house until 01:00...Yes, my family, that was 01:00...WAY past GiGi's traditional gown:thirty....but..it was SOOOO worth it..and, to think...I almost talked myself out of going...
Today I'm starting back to working on weeding out my closet...at least that is what I am SUPPOSED to be doing...errr...RIGHT NOW...TRACEY is doing hers, at her house, while I do mine, at my house, and our reward, is we are going to find a class to learn to make a quilt top or something out of our race tee shirts (that take up a lot of room in the aforementioned closets)...I'm pretty sure T is making better headway than I am, seeing how I am sitting on the flat part of my butt again, right now...
Okay..feeling guilty...getting back to work...
Have a great, great day !!!!

We Can Do Hard Things
Hey you! When are you guys going to make it out to the Dallas side? LOL We need to plan another dinner or something. I am missing all my "girls" and guys too. Now that I am not working I have more time on my hands to think about you guys. Not that I ever stopped but now I think about how much I miss you all instead of being so darn busy. Yes this is JennD you see on here. What brought me back was a conversation I had with a friend just a few days ago. She isn't part of the old group and I didn't even know she had WLS. Well I suspected but it wasn't talked about because she isn't a friend friend more of an acquaintance. I met her years ago when I worked at Progressive and met back up with her and other Progressive peeps a few years ago for dinner. Apparently it was at the dinner (post my WLS) that she started thinking about WLS. She approached me on Facebook to tell me what an inspiration I was then and now in regards to her successful weight loss. Yes it made me tear up. She also mentioned OH and that got me thinking about signing on and seeing what is going on over here. You know I am very active on Facebook and now that I can spend some time at the computer I thought I would drop in. So HI!!!! Maybe I will hang around. Of course that means I will have to update my profile but I will get to that eventually.
