    Post surgery truth

    I would say that realisticly with children those ages that you will need help at least 4 - 5 days. I was shopping at day 4 at the grocery and could barely push the cart..... children are very demanding and you need to get better in the beginning....no sense in messing things up when you have fought this crazy weight loss fight to get to this point. Just being realistic....it hurts....give yourself the proper time to be OK. Good Luck, nancy

    American Idol

    That's my first reaction when Ace sang "Father Figure"....... I called up all my sisters, sister-in-laws, and friends and told them - Ace could be my daddy......Golly - he was HOT that night. Since then I have to admit Chris has blown Ace away. But then lately I have really gotten into Bucky and see him as a future Kid Rock of sorts....he has it. As for the girls I picked out the McPhee girl from the auditions - but I really believe it is a BOY's year this year. All the boys blow all the girls away. Love the show. Nancy

    Doing the same thing.....I am recently trying to exercise (God Forbid) and hoping that will help jump start me into losing again without a fill (I have only had one so far).

    Music - Whats your flavor?

    KID ROCK!!!!!! The only band for me......... oh that's right - I like Nickleback Sarah McGlaughlin Allison Krause and all the old classic rock from the 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's I love Yanni and I love Native American Flute Music - that is so soothing. Music is very special to me and I love reading lyrics.

    FOR ADULTS ONLY (x rated)

    I've got that same comment regarding the (backside being smaller) from the DH in recent days. LOL. Funny - the things he thinks of that I would never think he would think of. After 22 years.....it's still amazing.

    Friday Fun Thread ~ Weird Fears

    I'm with you Dianechef on the no dangling the feet over the edge when sleeping....I get that same strange feeling. My list would go on forever......(oh my Goodness!!!) afraid of - rats coming up the sewers and biting you in the behind while on the toilet. (I once saw something about that in New York - some silly show I watched). ANY (and I repeat) ANY Scary Movie, story, etc......That's right - I have never seen them.....and I try to not pay attention to the commercials - cause they are sometimes too much for me. The Boogy Man - that unknown monster that is out there going to get you......don't know what it looks like - but I'm afraid of it......(I know - that's crazy) Universal Studios - scared the heck out of me......after freaking out on every ride all day - my girlfriend could not believe me. I wouldn't go in the Hitchcock Exhibit and when she wanted me to go see Beetlejuice Show there I told her no - I was already too freaked out from KING KONG and all the other crap - JAWS, etc. and she said "what the heck is wrong with Beetlejuice" and I told her they had monsters - and she smacked my arm laughing telling me Beetlejuice was a comedy - geez - i didn't know - I of course had steered clear of anything that even looked scary since I was a 7 or 8 year old......I could just not hang with the stuff.....I could never stop my imagination after the movie was over. I'm afraid of mean people. I have had so many fears over time - I once wrote this poem to perform one night because of my terrible fear of performing...... I have... I have built up fears fear of flight fear of failure fear of fights. I have tried to surround myself With safety... No steps No stones No stars.... in my eyes. I have found my fortress crumbling Breaking from within My self the Hammer My past the Haunt My needs the Heart that passes through the fear. Stumbles without... Safety to find my very soul. Fears have been closely tied with my weight struggle. I am sure many of you have had these same fears.... I always think stupid stuff - like - am I going to get stuck in this elevator if I go on it? Will that Big Truck lose it's cargo onto my head if I pass it? If I hold my grandchild (newborn) I think I am surely going to drop her and than I think - how silly - why did I think that? Am I just warning myself to be on gaurd and to pay attention so I won't drop her. How nuts?????? Fears have at times crippled me and driven me at different times. Do you know what I mean? I think fear is good in some ways it makes us know that we are alive and that we are truly minute energies in this vast array of existence that we share with so many many life forces. That being said - I could do without it sometimes...... like when my heart is racing cause I have been permanently scarred from watching such things in my childhood as The movie "The Birds" (my older male cousin watched it one night while he was babysitting us - I don't think I've ever gotten over it). The dreaded memory......DARK SHADOWS - Barnabas, Angelique, The Werewolf......this is where I lost all touch with reality....I was so sure the vampire bat was going to come and get me. That's why everyone who knows me tells me I am a scaredy cat....cause I am. Sorry for rambling - you just touched on a real subject for me....FEARS - especially irrational ones......yep - I know them well. Nancy

    Cross your fingers, eyes, and toes

    Gee - Penni - I am so hoping you get called. (I didn't get picked for the ABC show I tried for - but that's ok - I TOLD THOSE PEOPLE I COULD NOT SNOWSKI CAUSE I HAVE BAD KNEES) What did I expect. I am so keeping you in my thoughts. I sure hope they see what a good choice you would be. You already have an instant following. Nancy
  14. Nykee - I will be praying for you woman.....sounds like you need a hug and someone to pay attention to the struggle you are fighting. Please take care - nancy

    What Do You Do to Feel Sexy????

    I play teasing fun games with hubby. I let him catch me changing in the hall. I give him short little glimpses. I catch him off gaurd with crazy little things that I say in the middle of other normal conversations. I am constantly showing him love, playing with him, building up his self confidence....letting him think he is conquering the mountain all the while. It has worked now for 22 years...I think we have a great time being in love.
