Thanks for all the positive responses about my latest pix. And yes, people tell my daughter she looks like me all the time.
Aries & UM... I loved your pictures! Too cute!
I was watching tv with Jay tonight and a commercial with Kirstie Alley came on. He said something about how much she had weighed before she started the Jenny Craig thing. At the next set of commercials, I asked him what he thought I weighed (a very dangerous question). He hesitated and said he'd never ask me that, I reminded him he didn't ask, I asked him. Well, he very sweetly guessed around 200. So, I told him I hadn't planned on telling him until he outweighed me, but that I currently weigh 245 and that I started at 330. Not sure why I felt compelled to tell him... just did. May somehow be related to the text message I sent him yesterday.
It said "Jay... had great day yesterday w/relatives I haven't seen in months.
Their comments made me realize just how much I've changed in how I ACT. I'm still a work in progress, but I am now living my life instead of merely existing. You've had a profound affect on me & I want you to know how much I appreciate all you've done. You've helped me in so many ways... given me encouragement, introduced me to new friends. & been a friend. Thank you..."
His response was "Ur very welcum...stay the course and dont giv up til u reach ur main goal..evryday is 1 step closer 2 that goal.im proud of u"
Tonight, as he sent me home to "patch things up with my daughter" he told me he's going to be there with me to the end. Sigh...
(DD19 and I had a bit of an argument and I left the house and showed up at his apartment to vent and cool off)
Really tired and need to go to bed, but I need to ask my Peeps for some prayers... my youngest brother, the fireman, had a basal cell carcinoma removed from his head a couple of days ago (everything is fine now, just a nasty sore/scar). At the same time, he had an MRI because he'd been having headaches, thought it was sinuses, etc. A previous cat scan showed "something", so they did the MRI... He has a fluid-filled cyst (not a tumor), on (not in) his brain, behind his right eye that is THE SIZE OF AN EGG! No wonder the poor boy has had headaches! He's supposed to call a neurosurgeon to see what they can do about it. Anyway, I would appreciate any prayers you could send his way...
Nighty night...
