Hay Marion,

I thought you were going to sleep, Lady?? I have a Bracelet for my diabetes. Do they recommend you get one. Do you need it for Travel on airlines? I never thought of it. I will have a hunk of silicone in my belly. :scared2:They might think we have swollowed plastic explosives:lol: !!! They have the latest machines in Boston, as Logan is an International Airport, for security:ohmy: Wow!! Have you traveled by air since banding?

I Google Earth-ed Lake Macquarie, it came up with Mannering Park. WOW what a beautiful area you live at. Is the Lake fresh or salt Water? How big is the lake? Do you live on the water front? Is it heavily built up or remote? Nosey aren't I? It looks magnificent!!!! I'm fasinated with Australia. I'm a great armchair traveler:smile2:

Well it was mentioned(about the bracelet) on a Aussie group I was on and I thought it wouldn`t hurt to have one , and have my blood group on also pretty good in case of an accident..:tongue2:

Here are some piccy`s of Lake maquarie 5 mins drive from us we walk and ride there its a beutiful large lake ..

We live closer to the coast and have a view of the ocean (not Water front ) we live on a hill..

I found Jewels!!! WOW. How many Kilometers away is the ocean? Absolutely Beautiful.:biggrin: We are about 30 Miles (35 minutes drive) to the Atlantic Ocean. New England is quite lovely with 6 very small States (9 hrs. north to south) and maybe (6 hrs. east to west) tiny compared to Australian states or provinces. New York is about a 4 hr. drive. We have 4 distinct seasons.

We are just coming into our summer months. Today was our 1st warm days (I don't knnow the temp conversion

80 F maybe 25-27 C??)

I had a follow-up with gastric surgeon today in Boston. He was happy with with my 15 lb. loss (7 kilos?) Much happier with my blood sugar improvement. It would be great to get off insulin eventually. June 15th is my last pre-op Visit and Testing. Can't tell I'm counting down the days:smile: ? I'm figuring out how much Protein Powder to order for shakes, Soups etc. enough for 2 week pre & 3 weeks post-op. Have great day!!

that's an awesome shot!! GREAT to see your house! LOVE the internet!!!

Hi Marion,

I can see your house from here!!! Google is soooo neat. I ordered a lot of Protein powders on line last night. I looked at a few places yesturday and they just didn't have much variety. I have enough stuff to hold me until my deliveries.

Yesturday we broke a heat record from 1888 with a temp of 96 F = 36 C. I almost fainted. We never get those temps here in New England. This morning it dropped to 55 F = 13 C. (I found a conversion site) Yaa! Us Yanks and Aussies speak the same language but, diverged with Money, Measurement, Area,

Temperatures and Weights.

We have a 3 day holiday this weekend. It's our Memorial Day we celibrate our lost service men and women with parades, barbies with friends and family. It's kind of the unofficial opening of Summer:cool2:!!

Over the weekend I found some good sites for medi alert bracelets and found a couple I liked. I'm just going to get a reasonably priced stainless steel Bracelet.

How's the weather down under Marion. The unusual heat wave finally broke over the weekend. Normal temps and sunny dry days, just refreshing clean blue skys.
