Well, it has been a beautiful week here in Greensboro and Winston Salem, great weather (compared to Seattle:-D), great food and good business. Thank you North Carolina! Back home today, I miss my DH, my son and my fuzzy family members too!

Funny you ask, North Carolina was great, I loved everywhere we went, but unfortunately I found out that or of my credit card purchases resulted in a scam of my credit card and a fraudulent purchase two days after I was home. Luckily the transaction was rejected and I received the fraud text and have since canceled the card. They tried to buy $350 of stuff at a drug store. But otherwise NC was great!

Hopefully you were able to enjoy some of our great barbeque while you were here in NC! I have found that in addition to being a good source of Protein, if done properly it is also very tender and 'band friendly' so long as you chew like you are supposed to! Glad you enjoyed being in our state and I am sorry for the one scumbag who tarnished your trip!

Thanks! I didn't get to eat any bar-b-que this time, but I did get have one of my southern favorites, grits! You just don't find grits in restaurants in the Pacific Northwest. So far the credit card thing has been mostly painless, I am chalking it up to "stuff happens"

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
