They're not supposed to reveal their (uh, rabbits, yeah, that's it, rabbits) either...but ... Another YouTube flashback. A girl can have no secrets in this crazy technology age :biggrin:.

It is after 1am, I'm exhausted, so why am I awake??? ARGHH. I want to sleep. Go to sleep. Lovely sleep.

Until then I will catch up on some of the PJTP activities:

That is so sweet for him to bring you coffee.< /div>

Yep. Somedays he drives me to madness, and then he does something like that. It's the small things that win me over - no bling or dinners out - coffee in bed or the cat litter scooped or something small like that and it's all good!

* construction crew here, demo'ing the master bath - why on earth do folks put wall to wall mirrors all over the place????

Construction crew? Men like Mike Holmes - all muscle-y and cute???

The worst is the mirrors with black or gold 'marble-ing'..

re: mirrors - If I looked like you, I'd have wall to wall to ceiling mirrors everywhere.

Yes indeed-y!

i have turned into a bit of a germaphob due to DH's obsession w/it. god forbid if we're out and i cross my leg and the bottom of my shoe grazes him......now that i think about it, that's probably the maddest he'll ever get w/me.

We all have our breaking point...

Golly. I am my grandmother.

Dusting is not in my vocabulary! You must have had a wonderfully clean grandmother's house to visit!

re- public bathrooms; i worm my way around using my elbows & feet......then sqirt purel in my hand.

i know it's not good to use those items too much - but after an oprah show that said the sinks in public bathrooms had more cooties than the toilet - yeah, grossed out.

BLECH! Almost enough to turn one's stomach to think about it!

I'd last seen him in April, and I've dropped 27 lbs since then, but I wanted more. There's that over-achiever in my personality again -

If I can't get my weight down far enough and get off the diabetes meds, my band doc suggested I consider a bypass :):eek::eek::eek:

Great weight loss achievement! Don't start worrying about other procedures now. Just focus on living the bandster life- which of course is very easy for me to say and next to impossible to do recently!

BB......wierd noise in the yard!!!

So...what was it??

Tomorrow I have my physical and that is the last thing I need to submit my application to the state of NC to be approved to become a foster parent. I cannot believe I am almost at the end of the process!

How wonderful!!

I slept til 10 this AM and yesterday and today both, had awakened with a sore throat, still sore. I'm thinking I'm coming down with something and that's why I'm having problems. Scared now to even try the tea. I don't want to start retching again. :biggrin:

This does not sound good; get it checked out!

heartfire-I hope you feel better. Hopefully you will get over whatever it is before it hits you. ***spraying everything down just in case your cooties are strong like Tap's*** :)

:smile::lol::wub:

Have I become the Typhoid Mary of PJTP???

I always open the RR door at work with my upper arm (by leaning into it). We've just transitioned into an *almost* touch-free RR; the soap is definitely less harsh than what we had before!

When the automatic taps and hand dryers work, it's wonderful!

Hope you're not getting the flu!

My thought.

If you are lonely, go into room with mirrors on all 4 walls. Then, you are no longer alone and BEST part - none of those other beotches look better'n you... :biggrin:

ARe you kidding??? They would haunt me - ever seen the 360 irror on 'What Not To Wear?? I'd freak out!

I keep telling myself that I can give them the best that I can offer while they are here and hope that that will impact their lives for the better, even when they move on.

Exactly!!

Thanks. I hope so too. And please, spray as much as yo Not so worried about H1N1 except that my DD is 3 and that's one of the age groups (under 5) that "they" are worried about.

PJTP: I can't keep anything down for long as of yet. In the last 5 hours or so it's only been 3 times but I'm barely sipping any Water too. Just taking it easy.

Little nervous about what's going on. I hurt. Band, stomach, port, all hurt. Trying not to scare myself. I'm also running fevers off and on with the chills. At this point, as bad as it sounds, I'm hoping for a flu bug vs the alternative which is band problems.

Keep us posted; try to rest as stress just makes everything worse!

Do you suppose I can get some sleep now???

Tap,

I've been trying to get the damned sheep smashed into my laptop so I can send them to you. They are not acting like sheep - there's no following the crowd. Darn. Hey, I know, I'll send you clip art sheep. Then you can count until your crusty little eyes close.

Not sleeping sucks! I hope you get back to bed soon. Hope the pink eye leaves you soon too.

I was telling my gf that the teachers wrote in cursive expecting the kids to be able to read it. She too was perplexed! Are you teaching your DS?

:smile:

Nite all :biggrin:

I did teach DS how to write in cursive. I felt that he needed to know it.

Thanks. I hope so too. And please, spray as much as you want. I don't want to infect anyone!! :biggrin:

lol

Me too! Not so worried about H1N1 except that my DD is 3 and that's one of the age groups (under 5) that "they" are worried about.

I'll be praying for you both.

LOL!!!

Good job, Suzy! I :wub: multi-quote!

me too!

'Night!

PJTP: I can't keep anything down for long as of yet. In the last 5 hours or so it's only been 3 times but I'm barely sipping any Water too. Just taking it easy. The fam is all over at the other house so I'm here by myself. Slept for over an hour this evening. That was nice. Kind of sucks to miss our last night together but I don't want to share my cooties either!

Little nervous about what's going on. I hurt. Band, stomach, port, all hurt. Trying not to scare myself. I'm also running fevers off and on with the chills. At this point, as bad as it sounds, I'm hoping for a flu bug vs the alternative which is band problems.

I'm shutting down soon and probably won't be back on til late weekend. Hope y'all have a great weekend!

'Night!

Take care of yourself. Don't wait too long to try to be seen by a doctor.

It is after 1am, I'm exhausted, so why am I awake??? ARGHH. I want to sleep. Go to sleep. Lovely sleep.

Okay, this is NOT from personal experience...If you are lonely, go into room with mirrors on all 4 walls. Then, you are no longer alone and BEST part - none of those other beotches look better'n you... :biggrin:

HA! I love this! :biggrin:

Construction crew? Men like Mike Holmes - all muscle-y and cute???

ooooh....Lu, take pics! take pics!!!!

Dusting is not in my vocabulary! You must have had a wonderfully clean grandmother's house to visit!

Yes...and the clucking noises and guilt for being a kid came along with it. "Don't get dirty I just vacuumed!" was her line...But, grandma, I'm 4...I play in mud all day and hate baths...what do you want?

So...what was it??

Yeah, Kat - WHAT WAS IT????

ARe you kidding??? They would haunt me - ever seen the 360 irror on 'What Not To Wear?? I'd freak out!

I'd love to go in that mirror w/some things I wear - just to really see. But, yeah, I'd be sweating the whole time in there.

* my general contractor is cute, but after working on our previous home & current one - i know him like a brother now.

now the english granite installer is quite charming - probably the accent.

it's the - demo, wait on plumber. plumbers done, wait on electrician, wait on doors, wait on shutters, wait - wait & then boom it all gets thrown in at once.

jan 1 is expected date we'll see. i'm shopping online for furniture - DH wants my wish list & then he'll "adjust" i'm sure.

* michelle, hope your feeling better this AM!

* suzy, i hadn't heard of the jewelry designs you mention - but that's not surprising as i barely wear any these days.

* 360 mirror NO way - i want to slap that woman sometimes.

But he isn't our brother, so pics please!

I'd prefer total chaos for a short time then prolonged chaos...

* 360 mirror NO way - i want to slap that woman sometimes.

Slap her? Why? I would never go in the mirror room...I don't need to see the confirmation of my age, body and wardrobe catastrophes...

Because I responded within the quotes, it wants more words. Here they are....

      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.
