Okay, I am finally back on...My computer is still not working perfectly, the disk driver needs replaced, but I can live without that until my class is over. I just have to make sure I take it back before my warrenty is over. But I need it tonight to get started on class. I really, REALLY missed you all, you don't know what it has been like without you all!

Okay, Candice, I sold my mega quilter and frame, so I get to buy my SIL's Sweet 16. I am sending her the $$ that I sold mine for and will make payments for the next 10 years. She seems to be fine with the fact that some months I won't be able to pay.

School is horrid right now, I broke down and cried during class today. I just don't get what they are teaching. I know it is just because I am over tired, but I feel like such and idiot. I can't make sense of what they are saying.

Phyl, take care of yourself!!

Janet, sounds like you are busy working out, and funerals, bleck.

Candice, I was told that if you garggle with vinegar your vocal cords would be better?

Denise??? what is up with the job?

Linda, how is retirement?

Well, I have to go download all my class stuff and get started, I am already a day behind for my internet class, TTFN

YOu are not a dunce, it will all make sense... have a study group with a few of your classmates for clarification.

Morning Ladies,

Candice, thanks for the kind words. I am meeting with the prof after school today to figure out what I don't have figured out. Yep, I bit the bullet. I kind of put the 'fleece' out there, and put my mega quilter up for sale. If it didn't seel, then I wasn't getting my SIL. However, it sold instantly, so here I am. My SIL seems to be happy that I won't be paying here very much each month, so I'll just go with the flow.

Man, I sure didn't realize how much 'dowloading' you have to do to start over. After the internet, then I had to load Microsoft Office, then my printer, then Adobe. I justg hope I got it all done. I haven't go to bed before 11 pm everynight and I am sure beat. I am 'skipping' lunch today so I can work on homework. That will get me a bit closer. But I sure would like to know who thought it would be a good idea to paint in the middle of everytrhing. The color for the living room just rocks. Now I need to ppick out the color for my bedroom. I think I found a nice one.

Anyway, I better get going. Denise...any word?

Morning ladies,

I had an ephyphany last night....I can't do this additional class and be sane. So am checking into a four day class that will give me the same credits as this 6 week class. The new class is on archeology of plains indians. I have an email into the program coordinator to see if I can change. At this point I don't even care if I don't get a refund. Last night after my other class I needed to watch 4 hours of video and then do an additional 2 hours of other work. Plus a bunch of assignments due on Sunday, all for a 2 credit class. Guess what there are just not enough hours in a day. I am normally not a quitter, but I can't deal with this right now.

Well class today and then only tomorrow left, yeah!

You gotta know your limits, Karla. It's gotta feel like a load lifted. You will get your masters one way or another, so no need to kill yoursElf in the process.

MOrning Ldies; oooh I am just getting on under the wire!! WOke up this a.m with a phone call from my GF Jan ( the one with Brst Cancer) had a nice long chat... she is in between Chemo and her Radiation starting... and I am going to go see her Sat evening when the Welsh friends leave.

I have to take them to the airport anyways around 6 p.m., so instead of coming home... I'll just carry on south for about another Hour and be at Janice's house... Will stay for a couple days.. then be back home intime for gigs on the long weekend.

She (JANICE) is sounding stronger than she has the last couple of phone calls... and I feel so bad that I never got there all winter when she was going thru the worst of it. This is good....

Another mutual friend of ours was 5 yrs cancer free, it came back just recently and she had to have a mastectomy this time... so there's 2 very close to home... God, ladies count your blessings today and everyday. Life is short.... LOVE YOU ALL & DONT EVER FORGET IT!!!

now gotta gfo cll my MOM

      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.
