Kym's Jewelry

My friend Kym makes the most beautiful jewelry.
Last weekend we went over to her house and spent the afternoon with her, her wonderful hubby Rob and their 2 kids. We had alot of fun. We went to eat at the Blue Ocean before the race too. It was our last time for there for a while. Kym and I are both having the gastric bypass surgery. Her surgery is April 27th. We met on the forum the doctors office provides for us and have gone thru quite a bit of this process together.

Anyway.. back to the jewelry.... a few weeks before she made me a really neat bracelet. Then we went to AC Moore together and I picked out some beads and she took them home and made them into the coolest set. (See the seahorse picture? That's the set.) Then last weekend while we watched the race she made me another awesome set to wear with my formal dress on the cruise. How cool is that?????

THANK YOU KYM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Full but fun day

Been a super busy few days.
yesterday i had my nutrition and info class. Was supposed to last 2 hours.. lasted 3.
Was very helpful. Today I had my session with the diatition, Emily. She's really nice and very helpful with preplanning for our cruise. I go on my liquid diet tomorrow. So made a late evening run to walmart. Bought some protein bars and protein drinks. We'll see how they go tomorrow :)

Today was great, after the session with Emily, I met up with my Sister in Law and 3 of her kids, Father in Law and 2 of his friends grandkids and we all went off to the Riverbanks Zoo. Most of us had a great time, unfortunately JR got sick and his Mom had to come get him. I think we spent 7 hours there. Then went to eat and home for a bit before they all hit the road again.

how many more...

Wow.. how many more appointments can they squeeze into a few weeks?
It seems like every day I'm not working they have something scheduled for me.
But hey.. that's OK. :)

Now I have a nutrition class this coming Tuesday.
And my SIL is coming with 3 of the 4 kids Wednesday and we're going to the zoo.
I love the zoo!!!!!!! This will be fun.

Even more tests scheduled...

Today I got a few calls.. my next tests are on April 15th.... Cardo.
They'll do an ultrasound of my legs and do an EKG.

Lynn also called. I'll call her back tomorrow.

Hopefully I'll get my packet with everything scheduled tomorrow.
Then I'll know for sure what's when. And can rest easy that nothing is scheduled the week of our cruise.
