Freaking out
Thank you all very much Im feeling better for now. Gained 4.1 lbs that was upsetting but over all my doc assured me that it should all work up fine and they will give me something as soon as they can to stop me from having a panic attack.. Nothing like running down the hall with your Iv bottle and your booty flopping from side to side looking for the exit.

I am glad she used her Friend of the family shows she is still a down to earth girl. And Rob is so sweet furnishing a home for her that was awesome right down to the kind of bed she wanted. He is hot

Ghosts...
I hear you On the Witch Craft Estella Back in Jan or around there I had vacumed our living room completely so I know there was nothing on the floor. The same day my husband went to vacume when I got home there was handful of hair sitting on the counter and he comes in and tells me where did I get that from? I tell him it was not there nor did I bring it in from outside. It was not my hair nor anyone's hair within my house hold. I called my mom ASAP and asked her what she thought since she believes in Brujera (witchcraft) so she comes over and looks at it and says someone is trying to put a spell on us so she picks up a newspaper takes it outside and burns it. Next I have to go get candles light them and put holy water through out the house. I also have on each door to my home Ojos de venow (deer eyes) not actually but thats what they are called. To this day I do not know where it came from or how it got in the house and was in a place that you could see it. I do believe in things like that but I know the Good Lord is stronger and does protect us from that kind of evil.

Rabbits?
I do not have any expetise in this area of raising then sending off to the butcher But we bought 1/2 of a home grown steer 2 weeks ago and I half to say the it was the best meat I ever tasted. My BIL raises Goats from time to time then he butchers them himself. My kids like goat but I am not to much on it.. Anyway there are several people here that raise Cows, goats & Chickens then in the fall they go off to market or the butcher. They even sell them here and it works out great for them cause you knew exactly what is going into them. I have come to terms with it over the years.

Children - I'm going to pull my hair out.
LOL. The good thing is it was one of those disposable razors but all these years he has never touched it always in the same spot.

Children - I'm going to pull my hair out.
When I went to pick up my son 7 yr old from his Grandmas yesterday She had a surprise for me. She says what happend to Chalio's eyebrows I told her nothing why? She says look at them, so I did. Both his eyebrows had been shaved. Now I kept my calm cause I thought it was my SIL since she is always trying new things on my kids. Anyway when I asked him what happened he could not remember, Yeah his own eyebrows and he forgot. Getting home we sat down and I had him tell me the truth, seems when he went to wash up in the morning he saw my razor there in the shower I had just used it that morning and he said that his eyebrows had to much hair so he decided to thin them out. I will have to post a picture later but thin they are not Crooked they are and loopsided too.

The count down begins I go for my pre op appt today at 1:30 and the hosp is suppose to call and go over the plans and time for my Gall bladder Sugery. I have been sick to my stomach for the last 3 days. Hurts to sit (sorry) Anyway I have drank enough Baby Percy to stop up an elephant and it's still not working. I also have stomach cramps not to mention the feeling of wanting to run and hide. I know I have to have this done but I hate above anything the whole pre op procedure, does that make sense. I could just cry now I am feel so sick to my stomach about the whole thing. I know when I look back and read this it's going to be funny that I even had these feelings. Wish me luck I am going to try and keep myself busy so I do not have to think about it. I planted snapdragons and Russian Sage around the border of our yard yesterday just to keep me busy. I figured if the panic Attack does not do me in the the allergies will. sorry to be so glum but I guess my body is going into panic mode

Antibiotic?

Permanent Make-up
Wow - You go girl I had wanted to do that but my sister talked me out of it. Said it would not look right I have always wanted to do by upper lids since my eyes to me are to huge. Maybe I will start checking around for a reputable place and price then when I reach goal give myself a present. Great Idea

My port is hurting...
I am sorry to hear that Estella, Can it flip back by itself?? Hope it gets better for you.

Antibiotic?
I have been on different medications and have not had any problems with my pouch but you might ask your Doc what will work for you and if it comes in liquid form. Ouch Poisin Ivy how did that happen??? If you do not mind me asking.

RNY...why I chose the band.
I feel that with any Surgery there is a risk that something is not going to go right but through out this past year I have been following the stories of some RNYers that have had the misfortune that all went wrong and they are just surviving day to day some have even passed on. My heart goes out to them because like your sister you just never know. I knew when I went in that the band was my choice and if it came down to RNY that was not an option. I hope your sister is doing alot better.
