Anyone? Am I The Only One In April?

[brokenwings 98]

I guess being and ER nurse is why i am not nervous. Or maybe its cause i dont have an actual date yet. I am just way excited. Cant wait. But i do admit i do sometimes think oh I wont be able to have this again etc. But you know thats ok if i cant. I can find something else to love like hmmm clothes shopping. LOL i have been finding myself looking at things like halloween costumes (its my bday) to find something cute not a tent this time

Deb i think you need to call your doc and tell them you NEED to get your date set in April because your online support group is insisting. Ya know... your under a ton of "peer" pressure and you cant' handle the stress

Think it will work?

LOL Scopio i wish that would work. But he wants the insurance to approve it first and i do understand that. Being in the Medical field i see how if they schedualed a bunch of surgerys and they didnt get approved or didnt happen then they would lose alot of money. But i promise my 6 mos is over on march 22 and i am going to start bugging the insurance company on the 24.. lol They will get sick of me.

well maybe we need to expand to April/May Shedders

Can you tell I'm getting excited?

[brokenwings 98]

lol we could be the Springers! .. i mean we are springing into a new life and april and may are both spring months

I like Springers!

How much time is everyone getting off of work? I am an NICU RN and my co-worker got off 6 weeks for the band.... Which I would love.

[brokenwings 98]

That or spingsters.... I am not taking anytime off that i can keep from taking. Cause i really hope in a year and half i will need time off for a Tummy Tuck. So what i am going to do is work up to the day of my surgery and then not to back till the next week. I can work 3 days before and not go back for a week and maybe take a day or 2 off is all. I will go back to triage which I did last year with a broken shoulder and arm in a sling.. LOL I am a bit of a work acholic though.

[scorpiolady 83]

Springers! Love that!

I'm a week off. Not sure about the heavy lifting. I think you might want to be careful about that part of your jobs. I stand all day and get shoulder pain, but no heavy lifting! I'm not sure I would do with 6 weeks off.

So we can go with Springers?

I'm only taking off a week. Hope that is plenty caz I'm a hairdresser! Lol! Glad to see we have some new springers!

[GLove 44]

I'm retired (yea) so I have no worries about work!!

[scorpiolady 83]

I own a very small salon in Central Phoenix. Yep, another hair stylist!

So any objections to starting a group called Springers? I'd be happy to create it, just want to check with everyone about the name.

Let me know!

my blog post from yesterday

Date Night

I have a date tonight. Nothing too exciting, someone I've seen before. Almost a year ago and things between us just faded away. I'm looking forward to catching up but really don't expect much more than that. However! I do enjoy dressing up sometimes. Getting my "cute" on in my own casual way. I'm not into heels or

bling

but I do like to look good. So this desire had me in the store today looking for something new to wear. XL or Plus 1? What a choice!! But that's my reality right now. I'm a big girl and it sucks! Really sucks. I did find a blouse and a pair of jeans but as I was trying them on I made a promise to myself that today will be the very last time I buy a size 18! EVER! I don't' care if it takes me 6 months to go down one size I'm NOT BUYING FAT JEANS AGAIN. Did everyone hear me? More importantly....... did I listen? yes yes yes!

[GLove 44]

Springers is good with me! Hope your date was fun and I'm sure you looked great. I know all too well about "the promise". I retired last July and made the same promise. Not buying anymore clothes unless it's a smaller size.

[Tahneesamson 41]

Im a hairdresser too! What is it about us hairdresser?! Lol!

[scorpiolady 83]

Maybe all the years of slamming down food between clients has caught up with us?

[smmrsue 56]

Or in between patients.

I think I need the six weeks off to build good habits and get into a routine. I'm worried if I don't have them well established I will be more apt to fail.
