You can carry on a lap top. You just need to put it out on the security scan thingy. If you bring your laptop, can I pop on and check my Walden email?

Being an elderly person, I remember the tune vividly. It is from the musical Bye Bye Birdie and it is sung by Ann Margaret. Loved the movie with Paul Lynde and Janet Leigh... Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh the good old days...

Bye Bye Birdie (1963)

I wish! I MUST check emails at least every 48 hours, as per my Walden contract. Other than checking emails (students will know I am gone), no work, no puters, only fun!!!

I wonder if the site will crash w/out all the violet posts???

Jenn,

I would like to make a suggestion to you. When you get to your gate, let one of the clerks at the desk know that you have an intense fear of flying...and any suggestions or assistance they can provide would be very welcome. They are trained to help in such instances and might be very helpful to you... might switch your seat to the front part of the plane so they can keep an eye on you, check on you frequently, provide you with all the booze you need, etc.... LOL

Are you planning to take any medication to help calm your nerves?

Oh, and yes, you can get into serious trouble for drinking too much if

it causes a disturbance to other passengers. So....please be careful about drinking...and especially don't do so if you're going to take any medication as well. I don't want to have to bail you out of jail!!!

Remember Lunasa?? It happened to her! Please be careful.

Terry

thank you for that suggestion. I only plan on taking anti nausea stuff, anything for nerves would probably land me in jail or in the hospital, they might think I'm dying.

As for drink, I'm a happy drunk, give me a movie, a drink and some headphones, and i'm good to go. Maybe my ipod and a drink, but nothing that I can't function, My flights are not horribly long, 5 hr travel with 1 hr layover so I'll need to get myself to another plane.

Maybe a drink in the airport so I actually get on the plane would be nice. Only kidding, I'll be there, but no jail... PROMISE

No, Pam... I don't think the site will crash w/us gone... I think that it will run FASTER! But then when we return and post all our pics... THEN it will crash! :(

Terry... great advice to Jenn re: the flying. Jen... try as little alcohol as possible... you just never know... have you guys ever seen that "reality" show on some cable station (tlc??) about airports & all the craziness that goes on?? It's a hoot to watch on a rainy day... haven't seen it in AGES... maybe it's not even on any more... I can't remember what it was called... but it seemed like every time I caught it, there was some alcohol-induced incident that = someone not boarding or being hauled off to airport jail or some such thing... one time a guy had his "invisible" wife w/him... too funny!!

Good afternoon, Violets...

Just back from Walmart and got my Water shoes. I picked up a few shirts on sale too. And of course had to have a Michigan shirt to wear when we're tubing. Got some new comfy sandals to wear and I have most everything packed in my carry on. I'm bringing two skorts and a pair of capris, tops, undies and pjs. Of course a bathing suit goes in there too. Any other clothes items you can think of that I forgot??

I made a list of all the other stuff I need.... camera, meds, sungalsses, cell phone Crystal light...

This is gonna be one heck of a weekend!!!

      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.
