Recommended Posts

Green: Awesome. You name your coats. How about your frocks? Or do you seldome wear frocks? Like me.

Drewslou: Thanks! Appreciate your genorosity! Bet you wouldn't mind if we decided to truck some home with us. We could put a nice layer of Coors Lite on the bottom.

I hardly ever wear dresses or get dressed up. I would rather have elective surgery than get dressed up and this is why I rarely agree to go to weddings. I end up feeling like a cowboy in drag.:)

Green: The only time I dress up is when I have to go to a function w/ my DH. And even then I don't wear dresses. When I worked I preferred pants and jackets to skirts of any kind. Now if I could just figure out a way to get rid of a purse! Purses are fun though, skirts are an encumbrance.

Does Green wear cowboy boots? You could fit right in here in Texas. Except you'd have to leave Norton at home. He'd shed his fur here. The coat, not the cat. You can bring the cat. He'll shed his fur too, but no so's you'd notice.

I usually wear black pants or jeans in the winter. In the summer I always wear black or white capris. I wear flat soled shoes, usually a walking shoe or sandal, or ankle high boots. I am fond of colourful foot wear. The ankle boots are Tomato red and my other boots look like the kind that wrestlers wear. I have two black leather vests, one is quilted leather. In the summer I wear a lot of baggy linen stuff, usually white. This is because it gets very damn hot and humid up here.

But no, no cowboy boots although many years ago I used to have a pair in lavender leather! They were pretty cute.

Come on out to Colorado! We have plenty of snow to go around!

We never get snow (Dallas)!! IF we do it melts the next 1-2days- It is rarely below 50 here until Feb!! We have one-two months of cold (below 50) if we are lucky. Its always easier to enjoy if you dont HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT!

I miss the Marlboro man, come to think of it.

Yeah, he was quite a hunk, wasn't he? Died of lung cancer, appropriately enough, but still a shame.

I have pink (mauve, actally) Justin ropers. You gotta have jeans and cowboy boots here so you can go boot scootin'!

But I like to get all girlified once in a while. Not often, though - just once in a while.

Green: Good song, "Boot Scootin' Boogie"

Do you ever at least wear jeans? They're my uniform.

Oh, I wear jeans all the time. I have black ones and blue ones. Green loves jeans but they have to be tapered in at the ankle. Flared ones make me look like a colonial lampshade from the rear end!:(

Not to change the subject or anything... lol... but we are supposed to get more snow on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. They are saying this will be a huge storm like our blizzard right before Xmas. High temps will be below zero for a few days it sounds like. I heard a prediction of 3 feet this morning! Ack! I am so moving to AZ for the winter I think. Snow birds have the right idea!

That's pretty distressing, I'm supposed to fly in on Sunday.:(

Maybe I'll ask Dr. K if he can just freeze me instead of using the general anesthetic.

Drewslou: Don't feel too bad, we're supposed to get some ice. Sometimes a heavy coating of ice can wreak more havoc than a 3 ft. snowfall. I feel sorry for you all who have gotten snowed in and are tired of it though. This has been a freaky winter. Temps are in the 60s here today. Lots of sunshine. I'm not complaining.

DrewsLou,

Maybe all you people in Colorado could wave that storm our way. I live in Montana and we haven't had squat for snow. It is 52F today and I am dyin'. I think Mother Nature is having a hot flash :)

      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.
