I'm home, busy day. Had a looooooooong night, so was exhausted for working today. Got a call from my DIL last night that a car had rolled (as in accident rolled) off the hiway, through the fence and was on it's side in the alfalfa field. Of course the inlaws are with Rick in TX. So......got to deal with all that fun stuff, cops, and firefighters, and it was cold, so I come home wired to no end, could not sleep.< /strong>

Good thing is, we sold all the cattle here, so there was no need to restring fence in the middle of the night. Which I have had to do when they were gone before like this. I swear they put the word out, this is like the 4th time this has happened when they were in TX, and I was here to deal with it. Last time, the sherriffs deputy put me off and there was no police report---that time the cargo straps on a load of 18" pipe broke, and the pipe come through the fence into the field. So then the info the guy give me was false, so when my FIL come home, there was no contacting the guy to fix the fence, and then he waited til I was gone, and drove a big truck into the field to use the crane to pick up the pipe and broke irrigation lines. My FIL was majorly pissed off at me over how I let it slide. So this time, I told the cop in no uncertain terms I wanted a report filed so insurance could be dealt with. He complied.....but the guy went to the hospital to be checked out, then I think he was headed to jail.

So....left me in a daze at work all day!

Job is still good, the computer guys they hired, are totally worthless, they left last week, did not get the computers set up correctly, now if someone else closes a page or pulls up a page, it changes on ALL of them. AND they took our programming disc with them! Letting the office manager deal with that. It is inconvenient as hell tho, because we are basically all 3 trying to work off of one computer so we do not screw up something in progress of someone elses.

I am doing good with my fill, my eating is back to "normal", meaning I am eating all foods again, but back to the little quantities!!! I am down 5-6 pounds since my fill. Not going as fast as I would like, but within range.

Jane----OMG!!! After 3+ years, and I had no idea that ANYTHING was off topic in here!!! Banks, nipple shields, vacation, spouses, cars, babies, whether Laura is in labor (!), EVERYTHING is our topic!!!!

Judy so glad you are home, and come home to what is hopefully good news with your son. I look forward to seeing your pics, I miss going over. But don't miss having family in the military at this point.

I have to run to the store, so will check in later tonight.

Miss all of you, and checking in through the day----even IF I had a computer, there is simply not enough time!

BB in awhile!!

Morning gals

up and drinking coffee. I had the best cup of seafood chowder last night, I'm sure it was not low fat like the Soups i make, but boy was it good, and the seafood was so tender it melted in my mouth

Judy can't wait to see pics

Kat - it seems strange that you are working, but glad it is going well.... :(

I found out last night they extended unemployment to 59weeks and gave a $30 raise... so after taxes i would only be getting $100 a week less than i make with no over time. It is a struggle now but i'm getting regular child support, which i wasn't when i was on unemployment last time, so i could survive.

what is wrong with people???? i'm sitting here typing and watching the news... they found that poor 8 year old CA girl in a suitcase in an irrigation ditch? WTF? These poor innocent children - my heart hurts for the families, i would not be able to go on if anythinghappened to y children.

anyway... have a good day, going to get dressed and out of here

Morning!

I'm going in to the post office this morning to pick up a certified letter. I got one of those notices in my mailbox and all it says is that it's for "Parrish" and from "Attorneys"! Aaack! The only thing I can think of is that awhile back my aunt asked for my SS# because (I guess) I was named in my other aunt's will!! Now, I've got about 25 cousins on that side of my family and I was not particularly close to this aunt but she was childless and apparently pretty wealthy. <shrug> So I'm making a bee-line over there this morning! I hope I'm not getting sued by someone!!

Jenn - that's good news about the unemployment. When do you think you might find out about whether or not they will open a new office?

Kat - How's Kinsey doing in her new school? I bet she misses you fiercely.

Hey Girls~

Slept poorly...on the couch! Had a row w/ Sus and didn't feel like making it better before bed, lol. We already made up this morning...and now we both feel stupid for wasting time; since she will be gone next week. We don't fight well...or long. Usually like 10 min and one of us caves w/ apologies. I hate conflict...and drama. We are both quick w/ apologies and conversation, and don't let things fester. Anyway...neck is sore, but all is well now!

We have 3 more days! So excited! Sorry to keep going on and on about it...but spring break is HUGE if you are a teacher (or a student I'd guess...or a parent too). Anywho...I am excited!

Have a great day! I made a fill apt. for April 23, and just realized as I am typing this, I need to change it today...man, I was looking at the wrong calendar and the 23 will not work! Oh well...a fill is coming soon. I am ready to join the ranks.

xoxoxo

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
