Twilight 2 Posted July 3, 2008 Welcome & Congrats! I'm very familiar with Mountain View. Our son stationed there, lives at Moffett. Also, DH's brother lives there. Been there many times. Wow Phyl, My brother used to be at Moffett. Michael and I went out when I was getting my degree to do my multicultural experience. I spent two weeks there with them. It was really a nice area but wouldn't want to live there. Too many people for this Montana girl. Nice base though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twilight 2 Posted July 3, 2008 Had a great day all. Karri, I'm thinking of you. If the past is any indication I would be in the shower about now quivering and praying. I hope you are doing really well right now. I'm wishing you all the best and you will be in my prayers all day tomorrow. I'm sure it will all be awesome. Thanks everyone for the nice comments on my new pic and those of you who checked out my website. Jeff has told me he thinks I should add a before/during page with all my pics but I just don't know if I can put it out there for everyone to see. I don't know. Showing you guys is one thing but showing everyone is another....you guys are family. I'm going to spend some time tomorrow adding new pages to my site. I'm learning. I'm still not doing things right, but we'll see. I walked first thing this morning. Had a great food day. Breakfast was dry kashi. lunch was 1/2 of a taco salad wrap. dinner, wasn't really hungry, had 1/2 an Aidells' pineapple bacon sausage, 1/2 cup of salad. A couple of coctails with Jeff tonight. Plenty of liquid no matter what else happened. I say it's been great. On my walk this morning....about 4 miles....I ran about 5 or 6 times. None were long runs...maybe 100 yards tops each time, but I ran. I was pretty excited about that. Didn't nap this afternoon either so that's a step too. Today I got a phone call from another teacher friend of mine who is thinking about getting banded. She tells me that our insurance company has started covering banding now. Frizzle Frazzle!!! So mine was on borrowed money and now I've quit work so will be dropped in a month from insurance so Jeff's won't be covered either if I convince him to do it. How crazy is that??? Frizzle Frazzle fluffernooger!!!!! Okay....tired and the coctails have gotten to me. I'll see you ladies in the morning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phyllser 3 Posted July 3, 2008 Wow Phyl, My brother used to be at Moffett. Michael and I went out when I was getting my degree to do my multicultural experience. I spent two weeks there with them. It was really a nice area but wouldn't want to live there. Too many people for this Montana girl. Nice base though. Yeah, they don't like it much either, but Chris has a good job and it's NOT D.C., so they're coping. Navy's been trying to get him to D.C. for YEARS! Oldest GD adapted too well...I think she's a "Valley Girl" now. She's in to Coach, Juicy, etc. Fortunately has a good job teaching toddler classes, doing birthday parties at a gymnastics studio to finance her newly acquired high classed tastes! Well... I looked for a Smiley to jazz up my post but my Smileys disappeared from my toolbar again!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mango24 1 Posted July 3, 2008 Peaches, sorry about your Mom. I just got back from the hospital. My Mom had to go in. Her leg has been swollen. It's a blood clot an it's also infected (cellutitus). She's 77. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kirajh 0 Posted July 3, 2008 I had a bunch of quotes here last night, but the storm knocked out the DSL. Now, let's see if i can remember them. Peaches - Sorry to hear about your mother. Mine is the same age. She'll be 87 in August. She still lives by herself down in Fla. but she really shouldn't. Steph - I think I got this right. I've been eying those qsiago cheese and spinach sausages at Sam's for quite while. Glad to hear they are good. Gonna have to get some now. It's such a big package and not so cheap, that I've been afraid to try them for fear I didn't like them. I checked out your web site but didn't see any pics. Gonna have to go back and see them. I do like the new picture though. Cute and Sassy. Going home this evening. Grandson's latest is "you're mean. I'm telling my mom." GD is sick. Mom took her to the dr's this morning. Probaqbly her ears again. Tomorrow is our community's 4th parade. Everyone turns out for it. Haven't been in aq couple years due to bad knee and hips and my depression. Can't wait to to see people I haven't seen in a while and see if they notice the weight loss. I aqlso need to get bqck to my pedaling. and working out. Yesterday, we went to the zoo and I walked around quite a bit awnd I've taken the baby out in her stroller, but that's it for exersize for me these past few days. Karri - My thoughts and prayers are with you this morning. Praying for great surgery and super results and fast healing. Gotta get back in those running shoes soon. Probably won't be back till after we get home so.....HAVE A GOOD DAY. TTYL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Twilight 2 Posted July 3, 2008 Good Morning Ladies!!!! Hope you all had a great night sleep. I'm tired this morning but it's probably nothing a nice brisk walk wouldn't cure. Going to wait until little quack is finished with breakfast and then head out for a bit. Peaches, I'm so sorry about your mom. I know all the stuff about her having a long life and all doesn't help the frustration and the worry. I'm thinking of you and wishing you all the best. I may have missed it, but what is the prognosis? I know she is having a hard time getting around because of the blockages but that's all I remember you telling us. Karri, I'm thinking of you. I'll keep you in my thoughts all day. Can't wait until Janet tells us you're out of surgery and doing fine. Kari, I am still working on the site so there may be times when it's crazy and the pics aren't there. I'm getting ready to do a lapband page and we'll see what I decide to put on there. Who knows how adventurous I'll get. I hope you enjoyed the grandbabies, even though they can be snippy sometimes they will remember these times forever. I can't imagine anyone not noticing your weight loss so after the parade you will be flying high! I'm glad you are feeling great enough to get out and go this year. What an amazing nsv. Feel great about that! Okay....gotta run. Busy day planned. I'll talk to you all later. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

peaches9 3 Posted July 3, 2008 So sorry to hear that, Candice. It's got to be her decision. My Mom just turned 86. She had 4X Bypass 5 years ago (in Buffalo), on Valentine's Day! It was a very tough recovery period including about a month in a rehab center. Fortunately, one where my youngest sister works, so she got really good care, lots of attention. My uncle (Dear old Uncle Ed) came close to getting tossed out on his ear more than once, but even he survived. Very difficult surgery at that age. Love on her & see that she's kept comfortable & happy. Nothing more you can do. Thanks for your LOVE and Care Phyl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
