I got up this morning and walked before my kids got up, I sure didn't want to but I made myself...lol. It was COLD!!!!!!

<p>If he really wants to be with you and loves you then he needs to dump the other girl, plain and simple. If it were me I'd tell him to call me when he's single and then we could talk about it. Good luck</p>

I still have 22 days left but I'm getting really nervous and scared. I had to do an online educational thing today and that really got me freaking out a bit. I mean it's all stuff I have already read about or heard, but it's really starting to sink in that this really is going to happen. I'm thinking too much about the actual surgery and stuff and that is really what's got me so scared. If I just don't dwell on it I think I'll be okay, but I can't stop thinking about it. ARG! Can I just go ahead and get put to sleep now and wake up on the 30th after my surgery so I don't have to think about it anymore? lol

Oh that was just a fluke, she had been to several games before that...lol.

Oh no they are not going to kick some Cowboy ass! I guess I forgot to mention...DH and I are hardcore Cowboy fans, and they are going to the superbowl!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The Giants don't have a chance!

My biggest hobby is scrapbooking, I love it. I make scrapbooks and pages for extra spending money. IT's fun and a good creative outlet for me. I also paint and draw, I always wanted to be an art teacher, once my kids are in school I plan on going back to school and finish my degree so I can teach. Basically all of my free time is devoted to scrapbooking these days, I'm backed up and i'm trying to get motivated so I can take some time off when I have surgery, I've been thinking about taking some time off from doing stuff for other people and doing it for fun for a while. Anyways, that's really all I do...lol. I'm a nerd I know...lol.

Hey ya'll! I'm Amber, I'm 26 and I'm from Louisiana. I'll be banded on Jan. 30th. I've been married for 7 years to my DH John, we have two kids, they're 4 and 2 and I'm a stay at home mom. That's about it, I'm not all that interesting...lol.

Good Luck ya'll!

<p>My DH knows my weight, it really doesn't bother me that much, usually I make him weigh before I tell him my weight though...lol.</p>

Congratulations, glad you're doing good!

Thanks ya'll!

Oh, now this is something to look forward to. How come they don't talk about THIS in the seminar and videos? lol

The only major surgery I've ever had was a c-section and I went through this same thing when I was going to do that, I knew two weeks before that I was going to have it and I stressed about it until the night before, I was really calm and really relaxed that night and throughout the next day. I'm hoping that I'll be the same way with this, I'll do my freaking out over the next few weeks and be calm and collected the day of. One can only hope! Thanks for the all the encouragement ya'll, I've really needed it today.

Congratulations and I'm glad you doing so well, thank you for sharing your experience! Hope you have a speedy recovery!

I got bored while my son was napping so I played with it some more, no blinking and nothing bright...lol. I actually like this one better than the other ones

Somebody else made this one but I'll work on a couple more if this one is too feminine, I thought it was cute! If you want to use it just save it on your computer and upload it to photobucket or whatever online service you use for that kind of stuff :eek:

I'll work on it tonight! I got an email about them today so I went ahead and deleted those others, sorry about that!

Jim, glad you're home and feeling good. Can't wait to hear more about it!

Congrats! I'm glad you're feeling good!

I use Paint.net. But I'm having some problems with it tonight, it keeps stalling on me and locking up my computer so I'm going to try again tomorrow.

LOL, that's how I'm doing the one I'm working on right now, with the s at the end of New Years. That's been bugging me too! :eek:

Absolutely, anybody can use it! :eek:

I don't have a pre-op diet, I do have to do liquids the day before surgery but I don't think I have anything other than that. I go to the dietician on the 15th and I guess they'll tell me then if I have to do anything other than that.

You can never have too much clothes or shoes

My doctor told me that I can plan to stay the night but if things go smoothly with my surgery and afterward that I may end up going home that day.
