well another day closer to my consult on monday. they are sayin my surgery will probly be in september now but thats okay it's still fairly quick.
it's hot and sticky outside and i can't breath when it's like that so i am inside i think for the rest of the day.nest summer i intend to enjoy it and not hide from it.in the first thing i will do is go to six flaggs with hubby and kids.
i am trying to talk my mom into having surgery with me...her life would be greatly improved i think.she had gastric bypass 17 years ago(the old stomach stapling kind) and it worked for a while but it stopped and she gained all her weight back and more....she gets depressed and i tell her well hop on board and we will start our new lives together. i think thats all for now. one more day and monday night i will have news and will have a date by the 25th or so.
july 11,2005
