I know it's long shot but if anyone is interested. I am doing a grand opening of a local tattoo shop (crestwood IL) and we will be doing free piercings. I can get a card with the promotion if anyone is interested. Here is a copy of the flyer, but you would need an original. I have a few and can get more if anyone wants one. ~Mandy

Sonia, when you get ready for the piercing, it will be my pleasure to do it at no charge for you. Think of it as my way of rewarding you for all the hard work. Since your inlaws are coming on sat can you sneek away for a little while on sunday? I have a sitter if needed for sunday, even though I will be tired I can make it to Panera. Everyone let me know when you want to do this. ~Mandy

Sweet Violet had PM me and was going to come down on Sat with me. I will let her know that plans have changed. Also I am not sure I can make it. I am at my brother's trying to help him pack to move. They are closing on their house Aug 1st. I am suppose to go home today however.... Last night's strom cause their basement to flood twice (no damage caught it in time) and then at 2 in the morning we found a tree in their swimming pool (was struck by lighting). When it rains it pours......

I am staying to help them today but between helping them and needing to get things done at my place I am not sure I will be able to make it.

Sorry.

Mandy good luck with your surgery.

Hope everyone is doing well.

Here is what I understand from responses for a gathering this weekend.

Sonia ~ could not make it Sat or Sunday

Mandy ~ I am hoping you can still make Sun, I know you said you will be really tired but I hope you can make it.

Lala ~ can you make it this Sunday.

I will call Sweet Violet tomorrow. We talked yesterday but she had to hang up before I could confirm anything with her.

So Sunday at 1 pm Panera in Oakbrook, does this sound okay?

1pm, I will be there. I worked 10 hours yesterday after only a few hours sleep, then I went and picked up my Harry Potter last night, I was pretty far back in line so I didn't get to the register until after 1am. I came home and colapsed into a puddle across the foot of my bed. I am up showered and heading back to work, another 10 or so hours. I will get some sleep tonight and be there tomorrow. ~Mandy

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
