Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here



Recommended Posts

That is all we want Haydee---for YOU to be happy. There are as many different types of relationships in this world as there are people, and everyone has to work with what works for them. Isn't it one of our Violets whose DH leaves every Christmas to avoid the commercial chaos----and that works for them, where it would not for me.....we are all finding our own ways each and every day, and we only want you to be happy!! I was not meaning you should have a baby---no no no!!! Spend some time enjoying yourself. That is not to say babies and kids cannot be enjoyed, but they are forever----even with ours grown and gone, they are still our kids, we worry over them everyday, and it is a personal battle at the ages they are to still not always put them first....something Rick and I are working on----like I say --relationships remain a work in progress at all times!!

I seriously did not mean to sound as though I was passing judgement.

Pamela---you can also do a close measurement with a dollar bill--it is 6"----will give you a pretty good idea.....

Anybody want a brother---mine is making me mad and I am gonna give him away!

BRAVA!!!! Haydee~ I am proud of you, and proud to call you friend.

As for babies...ya'll could come spend a day at my job...best damn birth control ever. They all start out cute, cuddly, etc. Then one day, they are in middle school, sucking the life out of you...draining you for...um, well, you get the idea. Don't get me wrong, I love other people's babies. I can't wait for Laura and Haydee to have one (and any other violet who still wants one).

xoxoxoxoxo

House is clean and I am gonna go relax!

Piehole report is hard today.

B: 1/2 California skillet (eggs, mushrooms, onions, spinach, avocado, cheese, sour cream) on top of hash browns which I didn't eat (maybe 2 bites got mixed in...but I really tried NOT to eat any.

Pam - my most favorite favorite Breakfast is from a local restaurant here and it's in a skillet. I has :

one flour tortilla

mashed black Beans

chorizo

2 over easy eggs

cheese

and everything is smothered in pork green chili.

OMG, that is heaven on a plate. I can eat the whole thing except the tortilla.

Kat - I know green chile is everywhere in New Mexico but here it's so hard to find. Very few restaurants have it and I like it on everything!

Jumping up and down and waving my hand.... I want another baby!!!! oh wait.... make that grandbaby! I can send those home when I've lost my patience.

Haydee... I'd much rather hear about good things between you and Juan, than about big poops... ewwwwwwww:lol:

Ethan has been sleeping since he got here. It's a really quiet day here. I got him some new toys for when he wakes up. It's 78 so I'm guessing I'll be able to get in the pool in a little bit.

I had ONE bite of a chicken finger for lunch, caused a big blockage and scene.. ran into TGIFriday barfing (it made the nausea happen).. so came out, decided to just eat green bean fries.. apparently not any better, the chicken made me unhappy off the get go.. so we were leaving and I made Russell pull over, I barfed in my mouth and his car is clean (for once) so no bottles for me to spit into.. doh. So technically I don't think I get to count lunch since it all came up!!!!

I recommended a friend (who is desperate for a job at the moment, and it's hard to find work in this city lately) for a job here.. she interviewed yesterday, and they told me today they are going to go with another girl. I feel horrible, and stuck in the middle!! She keeps texting me, saying she's so excited, and hope everything went well, have I heard anything etc. I just got news they passed on her, I don't know what to tell her.. they won't call and let her know she's not hired--they just never call her back, but I don't want her to stop looking thinking she's got the job here, and.. boo. I wish I hadn't been in the middle of this, but I don't know why they passed on her.. the job they need filled is an easy job we just keep getting temps who quit or call in sick every day.. she would actually show up, she needs the money.

Isn't it weird how sometimes it can be a quick PB...and I can often eat after. Then other times, it is a full blown puke session. The other night w/ the game hens (OMG they looked beautiful) 2-3 bites and i puked for a long time.

Trying to talk Susanne into seeing Step Brother later. There are no good movies out now...that we haven't seen anyway. Swing Vote doesn't come out here til tomorrow...maybe we'll wait!

chicken is the devil. I'm not a huge fan of it to begin with (don't like dry meat, and it has no flavor), but I'm more and more convinced it's just plain evil.

I loooooovvveee chicken. I would eat it every day if I could. I've never ever had a problem with it, even the really dry kind.

Laura - Sorry about your friend. I would just tell her the truth. Tell her they hired someone else and you have no clue why. She'll understand...

Gosh, Laura -- why won't they call her back?!? That's SO unprofessional!! ...not to mention downright rude! Hmmmph!

Haydee - I'm glad you and Juan are working things out....as long as it's what you want! Sounds like you both learned a lot. You deserve the very best, just don't forget it! I've been meaning to ask you...how's your sister doing with her weight loss? How's she liking her band?

      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.
