Dazed--You are too much today! If anyone never tells you this, I appreciate the quick wit you possess and your ability to turn a frown into a smile.
Rottzilla--Today's word of the day (this week's subject is HOW TO GET FIRED) is flippant. I'm assigning this new vocabulary word to you to use in a sentence to replace the word patient. I believe the bloody fingers you now have are proof positive that you understand this concept!
Pam--I really miss you too! You never know when I'm going to need another trip, and the Motor City is as good a place to go as any.
I'm SO proud of you for taking this first step to say the words that you want to say and eventually hear. Putting aside pride for the sake of love is a wonderful gift, and nobody does it better than you. I'm blessed to have you as an example of how to heal through all the hurts.
Thank you for your encouraging words. Post D7 weight was getting me down. Because of my height, a few extra pounds isn't as noticeable. However, I'm on a mission to get healthy, happy and slim!
A couple years ago, a lady in a dressing room told me to embrace my matronly and curvaceous figure. I was depressed for days! Because I still saw myself as tall and thin, not otherwise!
I read somewhere that for every 5 lbs of fat we carry, the body has to generate 1 mile of blood vessels to support it. A mile! Holy cow! That's awful. I didn't notice it because I work out. But I'm going to feel much better when I'm not lugging around the interstate system anymore. And it sure will be nice to fit back into some old favorite clothes again.
I have a message into our MC about heading back into C by myself--with the hopes of my dearest Mr. Wonderful joining me soon. I'm ready to love him again, and I'm anxious to see what sort of flavor that takes on when he actually commits to this process.
Hugs to you, your H and 3 boys. Any more booby sightings?
Come squat here until your landlord returns....
Hugs and squeezes,
Betsey
