Ohhh, don't worry we will make sure there is plenty left for you.

:smile2:

Doubtful. There'll be too much celebrating on one side and drowning of sorrows on the other. Nuthin' will be left. :tongue2:

Steve - if you're getting one frozen margarita, could you as easily say "two" please? :tongue2:

Might as well make that a pitcher! :smile2:

OK. Stop playing yourself. Have you noticed that everyone in showing fellowship and trying NOT to go negative? But YOU keep trying to piss in our drinks. Enough is enough.

I'm glad that you were joking but today has been very emotional for me. See, Obama represents so much where I am from. Not only is he intelligent and dignified but he is symbolic of how far we have come as a nation.

I am just tired of people disrespecting this man and he has not even had a chance to prove himself and that's not right.

I just feel like he is being sooo disrespected; I am taking it personal.

Sorry Beth if I am testy.

But....I come from a people that were bought and sold and this means so much. Please try to show a little more compassion for your fellow Americans that have a connection with this candidate on so many other levels that have nothing to do with politics.

I understand, and thank you for forgiving me (you forgive me, right? :))

If you've noticed, I've backed off today. It is done. It is not the result I had hoped for, but I won't dog it (no pun). I was just playing on the drink thing and didn't mean to upset you.

Enjoy your victory. I hope you're right. I'm just scared for our nation right now, and I can swear to you that it didn't matter to me who got in. The fear is the same. :)

Also, for what it's worth, I unsubscribed from all the other political threads I was on but this one. I really don't want to hear it anymore or participate. I'm tired. At least the ads and calls are over with, but dang if they haven't started with the CHRISTMAS commercials today!!! lol

Thanks, April. And I think there's one other liberal who can tolerate me. Maybe I'm foolin' myself. :)

And wow, yeah, big difference from mastiff to scottie! Like 200 pounds! lol Not a lap dog, for sure!

I'm drinking now. Second one. May try to make it three before bedtime. Won't be able to do it for much longer. :)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
