Beanie!!!! Your new avatar is GREAT! That was your Christmas gift from Vines, right? I am mailing my Secret Santa gift tomorrow, so can't wait until my person gets it!

Ira, talk about irony...really! Keep after them!

Betty, (((hugs))). Thank you so much. I have 2 weeks and 2 days until I get a couple of weeks off. Hopefully, I can make it until then. My teacher friends have all volunteered to do part of my work, take some of my students, and even my kids have hugged me, told me how sorry they are, and have been extra cooperative! I don't expect that to last forever. I'll try to vent less, but I do appreciate the willingness you have to listen and absorb it.

Lisa, I told my 8 year old daughter the truth about it all, also. She is able to take that stuff in pretty well. I understand why you did it, and she gave you such a gift with her honesty. Remember how much you are going to want that in the teen years!

Beanie, before I close, I want to say thanks for the solid advice. I have not allowed myself to turn to food for comfort (for DD). I have spent more close time with her, more snuggling, those kinds of things. She is more interested in comforting me! She is a sweet little spirit, feels things so deeply. Thankfully, we have a very close family, and everyone rallies for the other.

To all, a restful goodnight, Cindy

Eileen, Thank you!! Thank you, Thank you !!

I got a letter today that states that my Insurance approved a dietary consult. Did I just jump through another hoop? This is moving alot faster than I anticipated, I just need to stay grounded and focused. Can ya all help me with that?

The picture that Eileen posted was taken last summer at Disneyland. Lewis decided to hide so, you don't get to see my little monkey. Tomorrow, is Lew's 6th birthday, I'm just about finished with party preparations and last minute details. I promise not to forget my digital on Sunday and you all will get to meet Mr. Lew.

I gotta run... it's been a long day:)

Welcome back Beanie & Cindy we missed you!

Eileen - I loved your DD's room - the perfect princess room!

Sorry I have not been around much this week. It's ironic... sometimes I have nothing to do all week and then a week hits and BAM! I have soo much going on I can't remember my name! Today was fun and a perfect New York holiday moment...I had a business luncheon at the Waldorf Astoria....nothing says Christmas like the Waldorf! Fun part was that it is Nascar week in NY and all the cars are out in front, Jimmie Johnson and Brian France were at my luncheon - pretty cool. Tomorrow I have to travel to Wisconsin and come back Friday night so I won't be around much this week...

I hope everyone has a great rest of the week and I will check back with you all on Saturday when I get home...

Hello Everyone! I hope that you all had a great Thanksgiving!!! I am trying to relax this evening before I return to work tomorrow as my first day back at work after being banded! I am feeling pretty good, but am just nervous as to how an entire day of teaching will go! Wish me luck! Have a great night!

Hmmm. Perhaps we should start putting the year in our Chat name..... I was thinking our current November Chat had magically re-appeared.... :]

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
