$34,000 for the hospital??! WOWZA! That's incredible!

So glad you're improving every day, Judy!!

The kids start school on Monday, so this past week has been *very* busy, fitting in dr's app'ts and shopping and soccer practices and end-of-summer pool parties & sleepovers... phew!

Otherwise, not much to report... tomorrow will be spent prepping for Monday... getting school clothes cleaned & organized, getting school supplies organized, making lunches, setting alarm clocks... yay! Then Monday is "the most, wonderful time... of the year!" sing along!

SO MUCH house cleaning to do on Monday, + work... ay yai yai!

Each day brings us closer to PS!! I can't wait!!

Good afternoon, Violets..

PamELa.. glad to hear the good news about Susanne's mom. Prayer and purple power are an unbeatable combination!!

I haven't been to church for 5 weeks!!! But this is my last week of leisure. I will go to church next Sunday and then that week starts all of my rehearsals once again.

I made some cinnamon frosted zucchini bars today and did a load of laundry. Now to settle in on the couch and watch the Tigers hopefully beat Cleveland.

Everyone have a great day!

Just got home from buying a ton of back to school clothes. I had to get rid of 2 bags of clothes and 3 bras just to have enough room in the closet and be able to "sneak" 'em in so Susanne doesn't find 'em...wish me luck.

Okay off for my Iron, I did sleep well last night.

Was hoping to get some errands done this morning before the iron, that is like four or five hours, so I will just get to the bank and one store. Oh well.

Michelle, that was nice of your editor to give you such wonderful positive feedback!! I hope she never takes you for granted!! What is up with your FIL?

Judy, it sounds like you have really turned that corner!!

Pamela, when do kids start back for you? That is so great that Suzanne's Mom came through so well. There was no cancer?

Haydee, how far did you get on Sophia's room? That must be so fun for both you and Laura to pick out furniture and do a new room!! I am jealous!!

Speaking of you Laura, the dentist, really? Wow!! They start em young don't they!! I bet he is not afraid though as he grows up!

Alright here I go.

We got as far as pulling everything out, laying a plastic sheeting on the carpet and taping the edges. Then we had to get ready to head out to my moms for dinner.

Hope your appt goes fast for you!

Pam, great news about your MIL. So happy that everything turned out well! Are the kids back today there too? I expected massive traffic this morning but I made it to work super fast this morning.

I feel so blah today. I left in a huff this morning and it put me in a bad mood. Just overly hormonal right now. The dispute was over a glass of water!

I hate mondays! I'm planning on going home and crawling into my bed with a piece of cake and a glass of milk!

Hey Haydee, did you get your cake???

I can't believe tomorrow starts a new work week! It seems like this one just ended! Oh that is right, it did!!

Has anybody taken melatonin to help them sleep? Good stuff, works well for me most times when I take it. I only take it about one time a week because I don't want to get too used to it, then it won't work.

I am rambling, off to check my weird phone bill, seems really high to me.

I did get my cake! Came home, cut me a big piece and went to my rrom to mope, lol. But I was feeling better by the time juan came home so all is well again...

I feel like if I popped over night. For two days I've had bad ligament pains around my back waist area and this morning I was getting dressed and my bump is jutting out. It doesn't like like a blob of fat anymore! Yay! Lol...

I'm ready to tackle today. I'm feeling much better!

Morning ladies~

7th and 11th grade!!!! WTH??? When did that happen? I thought they were little guys. Well, I guess I've known you for a long time now. I always trip out on how old my friends kids are getting. I met my friends twins when they were 1.5 yrs old...now they are 9 in the 4th grade! Tell 'em congrats and have a great year!

The kids come Monday! Whether we are ready or not...they come. I met about 6 yesterday of my new 6th graders. They are so cute when they are wide eyed and nervous. It is when that wears off that it changes!

This is my day:

5am: alarm...:sad::blink::ohmy:

6:30: get gas:mad:

7am: primary doc...get to face the "fat music" and splain why the f*&k I am still fat!:mad2::):lol:

7:30: work for a bit:thumbdown: (back in classroom)

9am: pedi and wax:smile2:

11am: getting the 'do done:biggrin::angry:

2:45 gyno:thumbdown::(:ohmy:

5pm: Board mtg for my HOA:confused:

On the plus side, Susanne comes home today and I sure miss her pretty face! I like her here, this house is too big by myself!

Jane, my mom used to take meletonin and she liked it. Have a great work week! hang in there...vacay is soon!!!

Haydee, hope the cake was good...sounded perfect!

Judy, hope you get some pool time today!

It is 93 degrees NOW, which is our LOW! Today's high is 117!!! Wowser!

Well, gotta run and put my face on!

      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.
