Gracey

Fanny - I didn't even recognize you! You look faboo! And I subscribe to the Suze Orman thought of respecting money to bring it to you. I'm (paper) cluttery in my home unfortunately but my purse is organized!!! I can't stand for things not to be in their proper place. At a luncheon one time, I took a friend's wallet while the convo was continuing and put her money in order. She didn't even blink! (Yeah I was treasurer of our sorority for 2 years!) Girl, what do you have against a wallet + purse?!? :scared2: Brandy - I saw pics of you on facebook. I had no idea you were so small! Good job! re: work food - I found out this week that I'm moving floors (long story). I so hope that they aren't bringing in food kind of folks!!!

"Heads up, chin to the left." That's awesome! As I used to say, I want all the mens looking at ME! har har. We're "detailed oriented" - your ex sounds OCD!

You don't keep your currency in your wallet by denom? :w00t: How do you know how much you have? Guess you haven't worked in a cash dept anywhere!!!! Mine are in denom order, facing the same way, and "conditioned" meaning straightened out and unfolded. Virgo power! I concur! In my surgery month thread, I used to add the URL for the LBT abbreviations!

you know you love me!!! :smile2:

What's the BL thread? OK seriously....I am the biggest Excel lover ever but keying currency into a spreadsheet is beyond OCD!!! speaking of OCD!!! No omen - you're just clumsy as hell like I am!!! Good luck and think positively!

OMG - I am at 8.3 cc's in a 10 cc band. wth!

To figure out my fill, do the math in my profile (I can't see it right now!). I got 2.3 cc's yesterday. The only med I can't go to liquids with is Effexor. I have a crusher so I definitely need to break it out. I guess I don't understand how I will ever get to food if I can't even get down a doggone pill. Interesting hypothesis on the throat. That would affect my stomach? My surgeon won't hear that I'm too tight. I made him take out last time b/c I couldn't even keep down water and I threw up/PB'd for 12 straight hours. Happy!

That sounds so funny when it's not in context! I have no idea if I'm at my sweet spot; I was being facetious with the large volume of food the day of my fill. This morning I dry heaved in the shower after having taken 2 Tylenol like a dumb ass. I tried 5-6 bites of mashed potatoes at lunch-pb'd. Yeah clearly I don't learn, huh? I'm pretty miserable today. Today was the first day that I briefly thought that I wished I'd had a GB. (I don't know of a doc in Atl that does sleeves but there might be.) It feels like I'm doomed to a liquid/bulimic diet. Aww poor thing! I was going to say "bless her heart" in the heartfelt way but realize it doesn't translate well b/w regions! That's an awesome, non-food and non-monetary bribe!!!

I forgot to tell y'all that I had a 2.3 cc fill today so I only had 1/2 of a pizza, 2 liter of Mtn Dew, and large shake. I think I'm at my sweet spot!!! Lol

SNOW!?! WTH? We were whining this weekend b/c it's got down to the 40's! Wait, I've got it, Tap is Mrs. Claus with all her baking!!! That's so great!!! Did Kat's horse ointment idea help? Ugh, I'm so sorry. I had lunch with a bunch of gf's this weekend. One is an architect. She said that her firm has gone from 52 workers to 25 and that they no longer match their 401K and are now paying for their own insurance. Craziness. I'm such a dork - I didn't realize that "oh-dark-thirty" was a national phrase; i thought it was regional. Do you also say that you'll have to get up at the "butt crack of dawn"? What about "noon thirty." BBG - your daughter is SO cute!!! Thanks for posting her victory pics! OK that is beyond weird! PJTP - I had the most fun thing happen today. My surgeon had to come look for me b/c they were waiting on me! They were actually running ahead of time. Victory is miiiiiine!!! :biggrin: My weekend was so busy.....well, for me! A gf came in from NY. We had lunch with 3 other girlfriends, then went to the High Museum to see the Chinese Terra Cotta exhibit (very interesting tho very small pieces) with a friend and her hubby, and then snacks/drinks. (Mmm, margaritas!) My friend went to the King Tut exhibit (I'd already seen it in Memphis) and then we went for facials. My face is as smooth as a baby's butt! Ha.

That was so fun! Ha - don't you know she's mortified - so fun! :bored: Hysterical!!! I cry all the time, unfortunately. I even cry at fricken Grey's Anatomy - annoying!!! Ahh that picture brings back memories! In 1993, I broke both ankles stepping into a storm drain. I had a cast on the left leg and a boot on the right for 6 weeks. Then the boot came off and went on the left for another 4. Thank God I was a 12 then and not a 26!!!! When I say I feel for ya, Lulu, know I've been there and am sympathizing!!! I was always scared of animals until I lived with a roommate that had 2 dogs. I'm much more comfortable around animals now. I'm with ya on heights tho. I could walk the rope bridge at Lookout Mountain and now, I cannot imagine! :eek: Bad Tippity. Stop talking about baked goods, dangit!!!

My doc says liquids for 48 hours. :w00t: Glou, girl, I have said almost the exact same words!!! I've been budgeting for my current employer for 7 years. A guy that had just begun budgeting would argue me down after having just asked me a question. I got to the point where I wouldn't answer the phone when he called. If he wanted to ask me a question, he had to do so over email. And yes, Plain, this is the Stalker! Priceless!!! I thought we weren't going to to discuss our P.I. business?!? :smile2:

With ya, Gone. Been eating PB M&M's all day-gah!

::sneaking over to the couch quietly:: I agree - gotta be crispy! A friend from NY (but raised southern) is coming into town this weekend. She would die laughing about BaconFest but alas we will be at the High Museum seeing China's Terracotta Army. Home | High Museum of Art Atlanta PJTP that people have created the ugliest cakes!!! I saw this link posted on FB. Cake Wrecks: Seasonal Non Sequiturs

Of course not, Brandy. he knowwsssss those people!

I'm working from home today and so I thought I'd use my "lunch" hour to post on here! :tt1: Other than I'd be starving by 8, no! I had that a couple weeks ago for 10 days. I got so sick of it that I went to the gp (on a Wed). "Your BP is up." (140/90) Uh yeah I've had a headache for 10. fricken. days! I got a shot and a script. I had an appt with my LB surgeon on Friday and my BP was already down to 124/76! :w00t: and yes I am a nerd and keep my BP, pulse, weight, and last cycle in my bberry! How long have y'all been together? Sorry! I thought that was a sweater! See I so don't get that BS. Why can't judges see that crap and send the bills to the appropriate person? Really about y'all's coffee addictions makes me really miss caffeine, damn you alllllll!!! :ohmy: Not missing carbs? What craziness are you speaking? OK I live here and hadn't heard about "BaconFest"!!! Wait, i wanted someone to do mine; I'm not looking to do someone else's financials!!!! Working from home every Wed rocks!!!!! I did find out yesterday that I may be reporting to a new VP who doesn't do the whole flex schedule and/or work from home thing so that would suck if it gets taken away. But dangit, I have a job and am thankful for it! Truly!

Ewwwwwwwwww - why do you waste perfectly good brain space coming up with these gross speedo images? You really just wanna get skinny so you can parade around in butt floss - admit it! Newfies are SO cute. Way too big for me to handle, I think, but gorgeous.

What industry do you work in where you still have to wear pumps!?! Yukkers! The visual of a bullie in a life jacket is SO cute. Pls take a pic for us!!! Um, Tap, dear.....all that cold weather has warped your brain!!! GAH!!!!!!! I didn't know you volunteered at the ASPCA - that's awesome! SUCKAH!!!!!! All this time, I thought you were married! Oopsers While I am not commenting on SMS's lovelife, I did wanna say that if your thought makes you "really old and old fashioned" then I'm right there wichya! Y'all know I'm single. I would so love to be able to hand over the finances to someone but I really don't know that I could give up control being the finance nerd that I am!

1. I thought we decided this was a PG-free thread. Shh! 2. If it's a vit D def, I need to get out in the sun more and get a light and and..... You and me both, bg! I don't think I've ironed since I've lived in this house (2 years) unless I ironed a bedskirt when I first moved in! Welcome back and good job!! :scared2: 1. At a former company, we used to have mental lists about who did and didn't wash their hands after pottying. We brought food all the time and ya didn't eat the non-washer's food! 2. That morkie is SO cute!!! Hope DH gives in! Isn't that what pantyliners are for? wink...j/k Get out of my head!

4 hours - woohoo!!!! Now on DHC - XXXtreme weight loss.

The Discovery Health Channel. She's still SO big up top, dude! Now twins just had augmentation from an A to a D. Boy aren't they going to be surprised! At 30, they still dress exactly the same.

OH MY GOSH! I am watching a show about a woman getting a breast reduction from a 38II to an E!!!

:crying: Amen!!!

He changes socks 2-3x/day? WHY??? What's keylogger for tho? Mac - uh, very positive affirmations there!

Thanks. That actually was my first thought but it was a blood clot on the left side of her brain caused by the medication she was taking that they're treating with blood thinner. The doctors had her up and walking around the bed this morning. The neurologist will be back in later today to run more tests (speech, memory, motor skills) and hopefully she will be moved into a regular room by the end of the day. Thank God they found it early. Thanks! I'm not sure where she's from originally. She's late 30's if that means anything. She's 5'6"-5'7" and a little darker than medium complexion and just sweet as can be. I kept saying, "please don't take her away from her 2 boys (and her hubby)." Ha, you sound SO guilty!!! Hmm, I too have been quite a good friend of chocolate lately. Seems like I like it more than it likes me! Love this emoticon! (((((CC))))) very sorry you're hurting as an empty nester. I know you'll get over it eventually but you can definitely think it sucks now! Ugh, fire ants have moved into my front yard with an abandon. Where does one buy fire ant killer - some place like Lowe's? The communication comment made me laugh. It's way too long of a story for here but communication does not seem to be my employer's strong suit...nor any of its departments. :ohmy:
