Tap-those look exactly like I pictured. How cute! I couldn't ever put that on a wall though. I remember seeing something similar in my grandmother's bathroom when I was little.

Grandmothers walls...yes, exactly. In my case, my grandfathers bathroom walls...for 50+years. They're part of my history, but I just cannot see putting them up.

Oh my, that's just as awful as I suspected. :laugh:

Trust me, the owls are worse. The owls with painted clocks on their bellies are much worse. And then there are the bright blue birds....oh my.

is it wrong that i love those fish?

very cute; better than the HUGE wooden spoons i got from my great aunt.

Tell you what Lu, unless my teenage nephews express a desire to have the fish (HIGHLY unlikely), I will arrange to send them to you once my Aunt dies. (By then I hope to have met you, and have an address, otherwise I'm not sure what UPS would do with a package addressed to "Lulu in Texas a tiny little lady who lives on a big ranch with her husband, loves dogs, loves to cook, loves wine and who doesn't have children")

Omg, we had those too when I was a kid! :biggrin:

But you could make a rustic cookbook holder from them. I know this. I know it because I did. :cursing::laugh: (Hey, at 13 years of age, I thought it was fine craftsmanship).

PJTP:My baby is growing into a little man before my eyes! It is like it happened overnight! We were in Sam's tonight. I thought he had a smudge on his chin. It was hair!!!! He already has a sprinkle of hair on his upper lip, but now thick hair on his chin!!!!! He is 12!!! I can't take this! I need a drink (or 8)!

I cannot imagine going through this with a girl. I am already losing my mind with this! Not that I had that much to begin with.:w00t:

HI! We're in Sacramento at my mom's. Had a good trip up.

~Ebony, I like the idea of filing a grievance. It's much deserved.

~Beth, I just don't know what to say or how to help w/DH. Do you own a sledgehammer, per chance? :w00t:

~Tap, so sorry about the eye. I've had pink eye. It's not fun on it's own. Can't imagine that combined with a sty. Hope you feel better soon. And trust me, be glad it's not BOTH eyes!!!

I'm also really sorry about the fish! The wooden spoon/fork on the other hand? I'd probably take! I remember those from my childhood too!

~Pooly, glad you passed. Nice fake-out w/the pysch! :wink:

~Slim, awwwwwww! And so it begins! How bittersweet! He's still your baby but growing up!

~Lu, it's not wrong to love the fish! Where would you put them? Curious minds want to know.

~G4E, so glad you found a chance to post! Miss you!

~PJTP: woke up this AM with a sick kid! Figures! She's seems to have a mild cold so we're forging ahead with the trip. Here's hoping it doesn't get worse!

Okay, need to re-join the family! Have a great night y'all!

Sorry, I meant girls and periods. It's a very defining moment. I don't think a li'l peach fuzz on his upper lip which is only visible in the correct light at the right angle means anything *she says as she backs quickly out of the room*

I knew what you meant. My brain just made the leap from there all on its own.:frown:

PJTP: Pink fish with pink bubbles make me gag :w00t:

:wink::lol::w00t:

TPG---try wrapping it in foil with garlic and butter---then bake it...it might be really good!!!

LMAO

:eek::lol::blink:

Morning everyone! How is everyone doing today? I am hoping to go back to sleep here in a few.

Heartfire-glad that you made it safely. Have fun!

Well, I didn't go back to sleep. Instead, I went and spent money at Wally World. It was really nice to not have to worry about being run over by all of the people that are there during the day on Saturdays. I am now relaxing with my morning cup of joe with bacon cooking in the oven (DS is already up asking what is for breakfast).

I hope that everyone has a wonderful day!

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.
