Aww Michelle! That's exciting!! Your lil' girl is now a WOMAN!!!!!

I'll tell ya now, I need a bed! I don't fit on couches.

Just had someone I don't talk to, knew them from church over a decade ago... but they're a friend on FB... pm me and ask if I have leftover pain meds, her husband is in pain blah blah. How random is that..

Just dropped Carson off at my parent's, back to cleaning, and then we're doing grocery shopping tonight.

Meant to tell you, I found pretzel M&M's, and I have to say I was not impressed...I like the chocolate pretzel 1pt bars sold at WW meetings much better...leaving for KC in the morning...Janie, I thought we might be going through STL, but it doesn't look like it...I'd love to do another Cubs-Cards game there, we did it years ago and it was fun...be good, stay cool!!!

Enjoy your trip Mae!!

Good morning!!

Wish I could have slept longer, been up a while, watching Crazy Heart and doing some piddly things.

Going to a retirement party later this afternoon.

My check engine light came on again the other night. I hope it is nothing.

Judy, I hope things are okay with you.

Have you painted your babys room pink yet Haydee?

Michelle, you have soo many 'firsts' to look forward to........... One of my friends has twin girls, they just turned 17 and only one is learning to drive, her husband was complaining about why he has to teach her, why can't she. She finally said because I have to take the girls to the OB-GYN soon for the first time. She said he doesn't complains now!!

Laura, how many weeks are you? I know you are due on Valentines day, let me think this through, you are 6 weeks less than Haydee so 10 weeks?

Oh well, off for some more piddling, I am also going to put some paperweights on ebay today.

That movie has gotten great reviews Pamela!!

It was one of the best movies I've seen in a LONNNGGGG time! We laughed, we cried and at the end we needed to sit there for a minute just to process it. It had a great soundtrack too, lots from Uh Huh Her (alice from L words band).

loved it!

Good morning, Violets..

Had another good night last night. I'm weaning from the percocet ever so slightly. Sometimes I take the two and sometimes, just one. I have therapy at 1 today so will take 2 just before I leave to help with that pain. I'm walking without the walker around the house and Bob is setting up the bench for me to take a shower today.. wooo hooooo! Sponge baths are ok, but not like the real thing. I see the doc tomorrow and the dressing will come off. Hard to believe it's been almost 2 weeks already!

Off to shower and get dressed for the day.

Everyone make it a good one!

Help! I don't know how to handle this, I don't DO drama!!!!

So Leslie's old gf, the one who was around for years, I befriended her on FB like months ago.. she doesn't get in the net apparently so never accepted. They broke up and like lets say 3 weeks ago, she accepted the friendship. Doh. So Leslie actually wrote some crap on my FB about you befriended that skank blah blah... I deleted her post, no thank you on the drama. I later explained to Les that I befriended her a while back when they were still together, its not a big deal.

I've been waiting a little bit to unfriend her where she won't notice so it won't be like a confrontation thing.. and this week she's been posting all over my stuff (to piss Les off I am sure of it), and it's working. So I don't know how to just.. unfriend her without her goin nuts (she's a bit crazy), but meanwhile it's getting Les worked up to see her posting on my FB. I told Les yesterday let it go, and I told her I just didn't know how to unfriend her yet, and her answer of course is "F-- HER!". Yeah but I don't do drama.

Should I just unfriend her and act oblivious??

I'm always polite, lol. Send her a message and just say that for the sake of having drama free family life you'll have to unfriend her. Wish her luck and that's it. She can't go nutso on you if you're honest and polite.

I had to do that with my cousins ex wife. They didn't tell anyone they were separated, having issues ect and I friended her. and then of course big blow up happens and she's commenting on all my stuff so my cousin could see it and I just had to tell her bye!

Jane, no we haven't painted the room yet. We are thinking a very very light lavender. With pale yellow accents. Oh and remember how I wanted a fancy crib and juan had said no? Well last week we were over at my moms and she announced that she wanted to buy the baby her nursery set. When she asked me to come look at the website so I could pick it out it was the same baby furniture website I had been looking at. So I'm getting my fancy crib, yay. Nooo we're not spoiled at all...

Oh my gosh it was so hot yesterday. We went to a BBQ for a cousins birthday and I was dying! I wanted to get in the pool but there was tons of little kids playing rough and splashing all around. I was scared that someone might accidentally kick me so I stayed out. I just kept drinking cold ice Water all afternoon.

Oh and the baby's name is going to be Sophia. Just don't say it on Facebook. We are keeping it a surprise for our families.

So juan came home on Friday with a piece of cake. And I asked him if it was all for me and he said no, its for Sophia. Ha ha ha. I told him, it started all ready?

Oh and I have a question too. My mother in law became friends with a lady a few months ago and I can't stand the lady. She is now at ALL of our family functions. At my mother in laws all the time for dinner, ect. I can't stand her. I feel like she is so fake. But my mother in law likes her. The lady is loud and abrasive and I think my MIL likes that because she is shy. So anyways juan said just ignore her. But I can't! She's always in my face too! Do I tell my MIL something or do like juan says and ignore her???

Ohh Haydee I love that name!! It's one I liked, but it's his parent's best dog ever's name, so I couldn't re-use it lol!!

Sophia Lara, so pretty... what's the middle name?

And I would ignore the lady.. If your MIL likes her.

We had our family cookout yesterday and the Water in the pool is already gross. Normally by Mid-August the water is so warm it's like a bath and not refreshing. It's already there, we've been in 100's for weeks now. BLECH. We pulled the table & umbrella by the pool to give it shade.. helped a little in one small area.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
