2009-04-29T11:57:00.001-07:00

I am looking into gastric bypass surgery. I have gone to my first orientation through kaiser for the surgery and I am now working on my 10 percent weight loss before my next appointment. I am down 8 lbs! Ya!

I am updating on my gastric bypass through you tube. So don't expect to see much through here on gastric bypass.

Ramblings of Birthday Gifts

2009-03-12T08:46:00.000-07:00

My husband listened to me! He actually listened! This is what I wanted for so long, for him to pick me a birthday present because he actually listened to me tell him something I liked, and he remembered and he bought it for me!

On Sunday night we were talking about a book store in Oakland called DeLauer's. I told him that if I could I would go and buy one of every harlequin book they had, they are my favorite and I have only read a few that they carry. He said"how much would that cost" "about 40$" was my reply. Then I fell asleep.

Fast forward to Tuesday and I am picking him up at the bus stop. He has a little paper bag in has and I say "Whats that" "Just some candy is his reply" so OK, candy, keep it, I don't need it. Fast forward after dinner that night. I went up to him and was talking to him, he said something I didn't like so I walked away. He then starts calling me "Boo, come back, Boo, come back" and I replied "No" so he came to me with that same little bag in his hand and handed me a card "Awww thanks, but you forgot to sign it!" then he hands me the bag of candy! My thought: great candy, so you want me to be fatter! I look in the bag and I think wow this doesn't look like candy... I pull it out and it is none other then one of the many harlequin romances that I wanted to purchase from DeLauer's!

What a sweet guy! He actually listened!

Ramblings of Baby Gender Guessing

2009-03-11T14:30:00.000-07:00

My best friend is having a baby, I don't think I have mentioned that yet. She is 22 weeks, due July 12th 2009! Yay! I cant wait!

Well on to my story, from the very beginning of the pregnancy almost as soon as I found out I have been telling her that this baby was a boy, I felt it with every fiber of my being. Saying that God spoke to me and told me could be going a teensy bit to far, But hey maybe that's why I felt so strongly of it. I think I even went so far as to say things like "Don't even worry about buying girl stuff cause its gonna be a boy" and "If it is a girl, well its not, but if it was I'd kiss you feet..Maybe not"

Anyways, to make a long story short, I was RIGHT! It is a boy! I cant wait to meet him! Yay!

So congrats Mandi and Kenny on your little boy Nathan Eugene! Thanks for putting up with all my "girl bashing" and for giving me the best birthday present ever, and I promise I wont kidnap Bebo, just sniff him a few times (ahhhh baby smell)!

Ramblings of 23rd Birthdays

2009-03-08T18:25:00.000-07:00

Today is my 23rd birthday, So:

Happy birthday to me, Happy birthday to me, Happy birthday dear meeeeee, Happy birthday to me!

OK, now that is over with:

As I think back to all my birthdays I cant really remember any being totally memorable or spectacular. I know I got great gifts and almost always had party's when I was a teeny little girl. However nothing stands out to me as the best or the greatest.

I got an awesome gift from Kevin, We had the sweetest little kitten show up in our yard, she has been with us 12 days and he said that we could keep her. We still have to wait 18 more days for her owner to come and claim her, after that though shes ours. She needs a name, 4 letters and starts with an "L" I like "Leah" and "Lucy". Let me know what you all think.

We did have company last night, there was Mandi (Bebo in the tummy) and Kenny. Sharon and Heather, and mom, dad and Jeff. We ate cheeseburgers and macaroni salad. snacked on veggies chips and dip. Dessert was cake. We played the wii almost all night. We had lots of fun.

Ramblings of Motivated Mom's(MM)

2009-03-03T09:16:00.000-08:00

I know what most of you are probably thinking. What the heck is motivated moms and why is this "non-mom" talking about it.

Motivated moms is a calendar/ chore list of sorts. (According to their website:Motivated moms is a printable chore planning system to help you have a clean and organized home and still have time for yourself!) It makes chores fun! Yeah Chores fun? Well i have fun doing it, and its great for a list oriented person like, well, me. I find that having a list sitting in front of me with things that I need to check off when i am done somehow liberating. Like when I do my list completely, i then get to enjoy the rest of my day and not worry about something not getting done because it always comes up again!

So try motivated moms and see for yourself!

Ramblings of Jon and Kate Plus 8

2009-03-02T08:37:00.000-08:00

I really like this show.

I don't feel that they are selling their Kids privacy any more then the Duggar's or the Rolloff's are, so I don't know why there are no people blogging on that. Some of the kids may be over dramatic and animated, but I can vividly remember being the same way, and I only had one brother and a sister who didn't live with me.

I like Kate and Jon, yes sometimes I think she is a little bit of a control freak, I also think she needs to be that way or life would be total chaos for them. I agree that a lot of times Kate is a little hard on Jon. However I also can see the beauty of their relationship and I think they complement each other.

I read another blogger's recap of the show, it greatly irritates me. I have found numerous things she has added in that wernt actually in the show. Honestly If you are going to blog about a show state it corectly, the last thing I want to do is rewatch a show because things were falsly added.

I dont know what happened between Kate and Jodi, and Kate and Beth, nor do I honestly care. what happened is between them and truthfully not the publics buisness!

Ramblings of Church

2009-03-01T20:34:00.000-08:00

Church was wonderful today! I love church, something I never thought I would say. I still believe in evolution to a degree, but I also believe there is a God and he is wonderful and great!

I have a new found love of christian music, and a bunch of other things.

At church I feel a little "over-dressed", not many people at the church I go to dress to the 9's as I do. I was taught growing up that you always were to look your best for GOD, and Jesus, a lot of people don't though. I wonder if this is because they do not have the clothing to do so. I wouldn't feel comfortable going to church in jeans and a t-shirt though. I have to be wearing a dress.

I have and will continue to be looking for dresses at the thrift stores in the area.

On my offering envelope I write "All I can give, is better then nothing at all"
