We recently had my husband's 14 year old brother come and stay with us for a week (a yearly tradition) and we did a lot of fun activities including canoeing, rented a yurt at the beach and went down the Rogue on a jet boat. It was all a lot of fun. Here is a picture of KC, Me and Jim in the front row on the jet boat.

Here is another picture taken last night. We had a little bbq/dinner party at the bed and Breakfast where I work. The girl in the middle has been our help for the summer but is leaving next week so she can have her baby, and the girl on the right is the girl that has helped out in the garden for the past 4 or 5 summers. Every year the owners of the B&B try to take us out for lunch or do something special for their help. We played a fun game called Bacchi (spelling?) out on the lawn.

Here is a picture of a yurt. They are putting them in almost all campgrounds to rent. I think they are pretty nifty. They sleep 5 and have nice padded mattresses. They also come with a heater, plug ins and a fold down futon inside. There are 2 local yurt manufacturers.

All I can keep saying is WOW WOW WOW. T-girl, you are darling! You look so tiny in that boat, and your new avatar was worth waiting for. Seriously big congrads to you. You're glowing. Hey, pregnancies come in threes, and there are two other Band babies on the way... why are you glowing?? HAHAH, JUST KIDDING.

And those furry bellies are darling, too. Nothing like a puppy! And thanks for telling me what a yurt is. Daddy, I want a Yurt. BUY ME A YURT, NOW!

Here is a picture of my brother and I. He had just graduated in June and we all went to a local park for some family pictures.

Aren't yurts the coolest... If you do a search for Oregon yurts you will get one of the manufacturer websites. They actually make them to live in too!!! I really really wanted to put one on our grants pass property at one point. The problem is the financing since it isn't like the traditional house but who knows??? Maybe someday... I've seen them fixed up magnificently.

Thanks for all your cute sweet comments. About the time I think about getting off of birth control and little ones, my husband does something absolutely childish and I rethink the prospects of children with him...LOL.

What do you know??? I have found two more to add to the collection. This one is the bed and Breakfast that I work at. I've been there 7 or 8 years. They are finally closing this October but I'll still remain as their regular housekeeper.

OOPS... Actually this is a view from one of the rooms overlooking the lovely McKenzie river. The next pic will be the front of the bed and breakfast

I love all the pictures.

If your waiting for your hubby to stop doing childish things before you have kids,

you can forget every having kids. I've been married 21 years, have 2 children,

1 super grandchild. My hubby is still the biggest baby I know, and don't look for him to change. lolol

        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
