Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow

OK the site seems to be working on Treasures to Scrap so you can click it now. I've only the two LO's there at present as I've been busy with other things.
What a weird life I'm leading. LOL Jim went to work on Wed. on the crossing in Wellington and because of the heat he wanted to go back later when the track cooled down to check the welds he made. So about 11PM we went back there checked the signals and went for breakfast......lol 12AM at Penny's Diner. Coming home we were up another hour or so. In the AM after showers we headed for Oklahoma City. He needed to check with Camping World for something and since we were there we went on to Tinker Air Force Base. Real cool I've missed going to Air Force bases. Don't know if it's the uniforms or what. They have a couple of Navy units there so Jim was in his glory talking to a few of the Navy guys. I like it because I can buy Navy things there too..like shirts,,,, stickers etc. Our base in Kentucky is mostly Army so I rarely find any Navy things. We had lunch and shopped at the Commissary and the BX. I lucked out as the BX had a Bamboo Wacom and I have wanted one for quite a while. So I figured instead of mail order I'd pick it up. Oh boy I can add it to the things I have to have and never use. LOL Well I figure one of these days my brain fog will lift then watch out. You never know, I'd rather think that than that my brain has stagnated for good.

Hey good news I got on the scale this AM and I'm down 5 lbs. I thought as much as all my tight clothes are a lot looser than they were. I always say I'm to short for my weight as it makes me feel better. Truth is I'm 5'8" I guess large boned, yeah right! But I've been over 200 lbs highest 212 in 2005 all this since I started thyroid and diabetes meds in 99. The byetta made me hate the thought of food and even sick at times so I switched to Janumet and whoopie it works for me. I don't think it affects the eating but it's not supposed to make you gain like the other meds. My levels are normal...even if I cheat, too. I don't know if my stomach shrank or not as on Byetta which was supposed to make you loose...a side effect.. never did on me. I didn't eat and didn't loose. Just hated the thought of food. LOL Now I'm finding I don't hate food, I just don't care about it. I can't eat much at all. No more cravings either. Even Chocolate. OMG I eat cuz I have too. I have had cookies and candy here for 10 weeks now...that never happened in my life. I'll grab two or three and only eat one...what's with that. Anyway my pants kept feeling as if they were falling yesterday so this AM I got on the scale and almost passed out I was 195...Yipee ki yea MF. Sorry couldn't help it. But 195 I've been trying to get under 200 for so long I have to yell.

Now if I can get out of pain I can walk and firm up a bit. I am dreading the next Dr. visit as I know I've got to talk to him about this. It is constant now with no reprieve. I think I see hip replacement in the near future and I'm not looking forward to that. Hospitals and I do not mix. I keep telling myself that once I loose weight I'll be OK. But I think I'm kidding myself. I think besides being Cancer the Crab I'm part Ostrich. Is that a sign? Must be.
