Trop Storm Barry Check in!



Recommended Posts

Anyone else riding out Barry? For most of us in the south we’ve done this many many times now. Post Op Day 5, only house in our neighborhood with power, hoping to hold onto it! So if you’re getting hit by Barry too, let us know you’re alright!

Oh my gosh...If I were further south in TX or LA, I'm so focused on my sugar free or 'sugar grams greatly reduced' popsicles, I might be tempted to rent a generator to protect my 'stash' ;)

All kidding aside, I've been through typhoons before, one of which had winds that were in the Hurricane Harvey realm so I understand. Our gulf coast areas here in the South have become experts at preparing (as much as one can) for these things.

Those of us further north of the gulf...worry over everyone each time though....

Still have power. Enjoying a few strained sips of the gumbo we cooked for the kids. My in-laws were frying fish, chicken and everything under the sun when we checked on them earlier it was rough to smell. Our horses (labradors) are enjoying all this unlimited time inside. But kids & ourselves are a little stir crazy genes the trip over to the in-laws earlier.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
