Sil, I hope your DH heals quickly! My DH had knee surgery several years ago, and it took some time to recover. I'm sure surgeries have advanced since then...
Dad is scheduled for surgery in September. :rolleyes: Our family doctor doesn't see how he can last that long, and he's going to make a stink about it and see if we can move the date up. We were in emergency again last night with Dad. :( He still hasn't been able to eat and drink without throwing up.

Laurie, I insisted on our children taking baseball as an after-school activity. :lol: They're both EXCELLENT players as a result... phew!! :D
Enjoy your dinner this evening with DH, and good luck tomorrow with your presentation!
And yes! We want to see your bracelet!!

SoCal, don't feel that you have to be OP to hang out here. You're not the only one not doing well, hon, and we love your company. :grouphug:

Jodi, it was the team sport thing. :yes: The only thing I was half-decent at was track and field. I actually ran a mile or so every day for about ten years.
Too bad about the kids getting competitive, huh? It's worse with the boys. The girls (depending on the group) can be quite nurturing. ;)

RNMom, how are earth do you ride a sand dune?! :?: How bizarre! You know, the emergency staff here is so incredibly kind. I'm trying to figure out why... is because there's a fast turn-over with patients? Is there less stress? A different kind of stress?

Ellis September seems like a long way off if he is having so much trouble. Hang in there!

Laurie Your charm bracelet sounds lovely!

2BFIT1 Your patients sound like my in-laws. They are only in their mid 60s, but have mistreated their bodies, so are walking messes!

I am sitting here eating a Mocha Ricotta when what I really want to do is eat everything in the house! :dizzy: I am not hungry at all, just have the munchies. I refuse to give in!!! I only have 2 more days of Phase 1 and the only cheating I have done was wine with my dinner last night. The scale better reward me in the friggin' morning is all I have to say. :lol:

My husband is home from work earlier than anticipated, so I am going to go hang out and watch a movie.

"Yak" at you all in the morning.
