Judy, you and I have complete opposite tastes it seems.

Which is precisely why I married the Bobster and not you. Oh wait.. the Bobster and I are completely opposite in just about everything. hmmmmm well, it must work.. we've been together for 43.5 years now. Sorry Laura.. I saw him long before I saw you.

When I was in high school and video stores were newer things....(a long time ago!!) My dad would always tell me to bring home Debbie does Dallas. One year for Christmas, my uncle got my Dad's name in the gift exchange and rented, yep, Debbie does Dallas for the Christmas party. They made Dad watch it. Never heard him say that again!!

Let's see, my favorites:

1. Hoosiers -- all-time, watch every year!! (Have I mentioned I'm originally from Indiana and it was filmed partly in my hometown with several hometown stars!!)

Top Gun

Dirty Dancing

My Fair Lady

Back to the Future

101 Dalmations (cartoon version)

Die Hard

Sabrina (w/ Harrison Ford)

hate the Saw series!, scary movies

Had to take the girl cat to the vet today -- throwing up every time she eats. So now we are back, she got an antibiotic and an anti-nausea shot, blood work and he wants her back soon for a teeth cleaning (bad inflammation). And the bill was only $193. (sarcasm) Yikes!! And now, to boot, the boy cat (her brother) is hissing at her because she doesn't smell right to him. We were gone less than 2 hours. Geez, what a day!

You guys all have great movies. Not one for blood and guts so for me those are out, but I love a sad sappy love story!! My favorite sad movie is My Life with Michael Keaton.

Brad Pitt, in a River Runs Through It!!!!!!! YYYUUUUMMMMM!!!!!!

I am not too much of a repeat movie watcher.

Well I have spent all my savings on getting caught up. I hope October really kicks. So far not a happy start!!

I have no emergency fund, no window fund, no secret stash fund. Although I did find 50 I got for my trip in June that I forgot to spend, so I am saving it for my next trip. So I guess my trip fund has 50!

Okay enough whining!!

Got your postcard today Michelle, love it, Cindy was not very nice, always had that sugary sweet disposition, but it hides her real self!!

Good evening, Violets..

Just a quick post. 5 hours with Ethan and 1 with Grady are a little too much for an old lady. I'm going to take my next book Icy Sparks to bed and read till I fall asleep. Finished the Guernsey book today.. really liked it.

Off early tomorrow to spend the day shopping. Everyone have a good evening. sleep well.

You said it right didn't Pamela?

I am reading Billie Letts Made in the USA. Very good. I read another book by her Shoot the Moon (I think) really liked that too. Anyone read any others of hers?

Sorry I got on here so late. I remember you TeachLady from my posts several months ago. I'm a little west of Traverse City. My surgery was at Munson through Grand Traverse Surgery. And Brad Pitt....say no more! I was drooling over him in Thelma & Louise!!!! He doesn't have that long hair anymore, though. :thumbup: Yes, Monty Python & Princess Bride! I think my "list" could go on and on!

I had been a few months since a fill, and got a whopping 1/4 cc fill, and you would not believe the difference! A tiny 1/4 cc, and I can tell a big difference. I'm at 6 1/2 cc of a 10cc band, so my Dr didn't want to push it too far. I'm glad he didn't put any more in! I've had a lot of crap going on lately, and have been rushing & eating around my band. My husband was diagnosed with a rare cancer back in Feb, so we've been going through surgeries and chemo. Not to drag on about that, but its really changed everything in our family. My Dr is understanding and didn't scold me for misbehaving! I just hope I didn't damage my band....I dont think I did...I dont have pain or anything.

It's a Wonderful Life

Forrest Gump

Big Chill

Out of Africa

Meet the Robinsons

Shawshank Redemption

Dirty Dancing

Can you tell I've seen mostly Disney movies over the past 10 years... these are so dated! LOL! I can -- & do! -- cry at cartoon movies! What a sap.

I don't do scary/gory movies... I couldn't go in the basement for a month after I saw "Blair Witch Project" -- which was located & filmed in a little town right by here... shiver!

Pamela -- have a great time at DL & kiss Minnie (it is gay days, after all!) for me!!

      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.
