Things that make you go....huhhh?

:faint: What a day...Got up, brought my cherubs to their respective schools (3 of them) ...Picked up my "walking buddies" and went to the mall to walk:clap2: We walked 3 miles:faint: ...Left the mall to go to my pre-op testing appointment..Had an EKG, chest xray and the dreaded....BLOOD work...You see, I have a phobia, NEEDLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:omg: :omg: :omg: How funny and ironic is that!!!!:cry One of the things I despise the most:cry is going to keep me healthy.... So, now you know HOW MUCH the lap-band means to me... How corny is that? So, after my NIGHTMARE was over I went shopping!!!! YEAH!!!!!! I got a new MP3 player (my daughter has "misplaced" my other one somewhere in her black hole she calls it her Bedroom but you gotta wonder...:cry )... and a couple pairs of "stretchy" pants ( I usually don't use these but the MD said to due to comfort and slippage) and a sweater!!! Shopping ALWAYS makes me feel better!!! So, now I'm typing this, to then type my minutes and then of to my PTO meeting...So, needless to say it's been a VERY hectic day...:faint: ..Wait, and that's not all, we are expecting snow..Can you believe it? I had LOVED this winter until now!!! I don't like snow!!!!! Don't say it...I picked the wrong part of the country to be in (New England) ...but, then again, I hear it's not as bad as getting snow in Malibu, CA???:cry What's up with that? :scared: :eek:

needles are SO minor--just look away--and think of it as a PINCH--which is all it really is! you'll be fine!! take a deep breath at the time--and relax--it will be easier!

best of luck!!
