Banders #6

[lisacaron 5,075]

Hi Everyone, been MIA a bit catching up on the crazy life here! Weather has got me nutso, pups were sick...Ken and I have a new WLS Dr. now and I had to have some testing done...work...kids...all the fun stuff you know

Glad to see everyone is doing well, Happy "belated" Birthday @@☠carolinagirl☠ Celebrate every day!!!

As for the negative ninny's out there...UGH is all I can say. Some people just feel the need to be negative and to have their voice heard as if they are making a difference or saving the world.

Really, these people need to get a grip and get a life. Come back when you have some experience in both area's and then lets talk I bet their tune changes quite a bit.

Hi All, Sorry I've been MIA as well. Happy belated birthday to my friend @☠carolinagirl☠. Hope you all have a wonderful turkey day. Remember friends we're not on diets....if you want it then have it but have it in moderation. You can always have more later.

10 days away from my trip to Disney. Getting excited!!

Jim, I keep forgetting to ask you, do you still keep in touch with Missy? I miss her. I learned a real from her and enjoyed her thoughts.

Hi everyone. The weather sucks in Boston. Rain all morning, then around 3, sleet and now rain again. I am about 10 miles south of the city. Western MA has snow, ugh!

I hope everyone has a super great Thanksgiving. I will try. My sons will be there but are not talking to each other right now. I hope it changes. We are all going to my brother and SIL's. My 2 nephews in-laws are coming too which will be very nice. First holiday that no 'parents' will be there. In July my SIL's 97 year old father died and 30 days later my 96 year old mother died.

Have a great long weekend everyone.

Hi there -- ran away for the holiday and had to leave a day early to get ahead of a major snowstorm. Over a foot at home, eek. Having a lot of joint pain and happy to find Voltaren over the counter here in Canada. My co-pay in the US is $40 so normally I'm stingy with it. Pain, travel, stress and cold weather have made it difficult for me to eat. Enjoyed a Cappuccino and a cookie this afternoon after not being able to eat my lunch. Husband and son always happy to help with that problem. goimg to a jazz club tonight and will try some steak or other dense Protein. Nice to be away from home, eldercare issues, work, etc. Hope every one had a nice thanksgiving. Like all of you here, I'm grateful for this site and our mutual support -- and I'm grateful for this Banders thread where I don't have to defend my choice or read a lot of nonsense. It works for me -- that's what matters.
