Morning all,

Well this weekend I finally got DH to install the shelves and rods into the closet in my basement bedroom. I helped him and then Hannah and I went through the pile of clothes DH had brought from our CT house and then all the other closets int he house. The result was 8 bags of clothes to be donated and 3 bags of garbage. I realized that there is no reason to hold onto clothes that are 15+ years old that I hope to get back into someday, because if I ever get back to that size I'll be shopping for the latest cute items and not wearing those 80's fashions!

As a result I over did it and must have pulled something on my left side. One of my laprascopic incisions started bleeding a little bit and I was having some pain and running a fever. I stayed in bed yesterday but my fever kept rising and when it got to 100.8 I called the doctor. The doctor on call told me to take some ibuprofen and drink lots of water. Even after that my fever stayed up, but I rested and slept and thankfully my fever broke and I'm feeling a bit better, but boy have I learned my lesson and will continue to take it easy.

good morning Diana, Lori, Jamie & Tap

I woke up on the cranky side this morning. I think I'm ready for my vacation, which starts the 30th of this month. We talked about driving to Reno but with the price of gas the way it is we might just go to the beach for a couple of days instead. I would rather go to Reno

I was back to 171.6 this morning Today starts week 6 for me. My goal this week is to be in the 160's.

I was cleaning out my car yesterday before going to Jen's and something made me look at my license plates. The tabs expired in March We took the Aspire, which we should be driving these days anyways. Elmo is good on gas, but the Aspire is even better. I have to remember to stop by the license place and renew them today.

DWTS is on tonight

have a great Monday ... all around

Peeking in....

Tap- Take it easy this week and heal up.

Hi to Jamie and Lori!

Bonnie- I bet that lb will fall off tomorrow and take more with it! Your kicking butt!

I have this huge pimple above my upper lip, I look in the mirror and it says "HELLO DIANA!!!" Uggg I hate that.

Where is Pam? Did she go on Vacation or something?

Good morning!

Tap, I'm sorry you had to learn that lesson the hard way and very glad the fever broke. Please take it easy!

I'm a tad bit under the weather myself. Last week, my allergies were just horrible and yesterday I woke up with a headache and just feeling very blah. Even a little activity makes me tired. It's not bad enough to stay home, though, so off to work for me!

Bonnie, I'm surprised you didn't get a renewal reminder in the mail. I got our tags online. I filled my tank on Saturday, and it cost me nearly $60. With DH working in Tacoma, he has to fill up every four days or so. No wonder I had to get a job!

We get so many renewals in the mail (too many vehicles ) that we may have overlooked it. I would do it online but since I need them NOW I'm going to the little licensing place down the street from work. I don't like having the car sitting in the driveway undriveable due to expired license tabs. I can't believe I drove the entire month of April and the first week of May without getting caught

Good morning.....

I'm busy again since I have to go home for lunch to get W his lunch and then I have to leave at 1:45 to get to my appt on time.......

My scale was down to 219 this morning........I am so happy....I'm seriously eating a lot of food and the scale keeps going down and my sugars are staying steady between 4.6 and 6.2 (86-111).......I'm just loving the LC foods this time....I'm eating tons of frozen raspberries and fresh strawberries, fried cabbage, yogourt, oopsie rolls with fried eggs or burger patties, delux cheese-its made in the microwave, almonds, pistatios, cashews, I even made a whooshie pie yesterday ( hamburger pie that is )...oh...so many very tasty treats....oh and quite a bit of fish....W is on a health kick too which is really helping...I think we had fish 4 nights last week...ocean perch, pickerel and breaded sole (13 carbs per piece... )....what else....hmmm....lots of V8 to get more veggies in oh and Campbell's cream of mushroom soup-at-hand ( 10 carbs and 6 fibre so 4 net carbs.... )....12 lbs gone and more to come....

I'm sorry to be so rude lately with the lack of personals but honestly I'm barely hanging on....I just squeeked my taxes in on the 2nd last day and now I have forms to fill out for medical leave for W which I've barely started and we have to renew our mortgage at the end of the month and the bank hasn't even contacted us yet......we are thinking of going with an on line bank but I haven't had time to research them yet........

Well I called the Drs office, going to wait for the nurse to call me back and see if I can get in. 2 1/2 weeks of this is enough for me thank you very much! Hopefully I can get in today! Crossing my fingers.

Most of the gang here at work went golfing.... lucky them to get out of the office for the day, it's going to hit the mid/upper 70's. Casey has a game tonight and I hope I can Stand for 1 1/2 hours

My XM preview on the car ended Saturday, I totally forgot to subscribe! So I just did a month until we get all of the bills caught up, plus Fallbabies . c om just came up for renewal and the monthly webhosting. I do not like months like this, but it was expected after our trip of blowing money.

Anyway.....
Back to your regularly scheduled posting.....

Lunch today is a Taco Salad with Ranch dressing (Taco seasoned hamburger, mixed salad greens, shredded cheddar cheese, tomato)

Dinner is going to be Roast Beef - I put it in the crock pot this morning. Probably with Homemade Cole Slaw and green beans.

well so much for my fever breaking. I took my temp at 1:45 and it was 100.8 So I called the doctor's office back. Of course my Dr is on vacation and the on call one doesn't think this has anything to do with my surgery. I understand that it would be hard for another Dr to figure out what could be wrong but it is weird he doesn't want to see me. I told the nurse that I want to come in if I still have a fever and abdominal discomfort tomorrow.

Tap- sometimes you have to insist! Good for you... hope you get in tomorrow and start to feel better!

Bonnie- I love Taco Salads!! Hm... I have burger, seasoning, lettuce, tomatos, sour cream.... I think I see a taco salad in my future. I know Ken and Casey would love Tacos!

No call back from my Dr. They said he has been in L & D all day and they need to run my chart by him.... Why? Just have me come in and he can see me in less then 10 minutes! I am so selfish!

Good Morning....

No movement on the scale, that's ok... I know it will move. The Drs office called in another prescription, I pretty much argued with the nurse letting her know I have tried every cream, witch hazel wipe, supository... at times I can not WALK! This all started after my surgery just not bad, I could tolerate it. She tells me to call my Family Dr! I am like what? she will just tell me to go somewhere else! I figured my Gyno would have some clue since he worked on and around the area! Anyway... TMI I am sure... sorry all. Needed to vent.

I have a practise with the girls tonight, we lost another game. The girls have no idea of what to do, so I am going to get them out on the field and explain to each one their position, then I will send some balls out there way and see if they heard me. So wish me luck!

Mia got sick at 4AM in front of my side of the bed. Poor thing, thought she was in trouble. I rubbed her head and told her it was ok... I cleaned up the mess and climbed back in bed...
