I hope you don't mind because this is off topic in regard to the pretrip report but I just had to share my progress!

I went to physical therapy today and got a "WOW!" from my therapist. I pushed myself so hard last week, and was so motivated to not be in pain during this session, and I did it! My pt said it's patients like me who make his job easy. I am so proud of myself! I'm approved to drive, am getting more range of motion in my knee, and as soon as my Y membership kicks in again (the 15th) I can get on a bike!!!!

I'm like this dude -

Except less yellow and round.

 

[Skybabyy]

Omgosh, also off topic~

Tarzanskat -I love the Y -I become a member every summer!! I can't wait to do all their classes again. They just offer so much more than other gyms! Pilates, kickboxing, zumba... fun stuff

I bet! What is your major if you don't mind me asking? Also, do you feel comfortable giving your first name? I like to address people by their first names. If not, then no worries.

I love it SO much already here. Everyone seems so nice and friendly, I just feel so encouraged!!!

If I may.....you'll find a lot of wonderful people on the Dis boards, mostly in the trip reports=TR or PTR sections. There are also a lot of....let's say....not so nice people on the boards. People who like to be mean and nasty to those who are here to truly have a good time and share or gain information.
I'm certainly not trying to burst your bubble about the boards, I just wanted to warn you so you are prepared for it incase it does happen. I'm pretty sure you'll be fine, but you'll notice there are some people who are just plain nasty and have nothing better to do than to be mean to others. But then again I'm sure that's the case with just about anything on the net these days. Saddly.

On the bright side, on the TR's and PTR's you'll find some amazing and wonderful people. A lot of us have been sharing and writing about our trips, and lives for years and have even gone on trips together!
And many meet up on trips and have what are called Dis meets. You'll find there is such a beautiful little community that happens here (in the PTR's and TR's), many of these wonderful people I've become friends/family with
I'm sure you'll fit right in. Hang out, read lots of trip reports and comment as much or as little as you like.

Your welcome banners are so pretty!! Omgosh!! *_*

Oooh thank you. There are sites where you can get the ticker/banners and there are lots of things you can get off of photobucket (which is where you upload your pictures to put on the Dis boards) to add to your signature. When we have some time together, I'll walk you through it and help you figure out how to make yours pretty too.

I hope you don't mind because this is off topic in regard to the pretrip report but I just had to share my progress!

By all means!! Share away!! I love that you feel you can come here and share.

This is outstanding news!!! You have every reason to be proud of yourself!! Shoot! I'm proud of you!! Way to go, Kat!! I bet you were beyond thrilled when you got through it!!

I'm like this dude -

Except less yellow and round.

Yes, I truly hope less yellow, cause then I'd be sending your butt back to the doctor! "My, my Ms. TK, I think you are looking a little jaundice today."

Again, way to go, girl!! I'm so happy to hear things are moving along so nicely, I'm sure you are too.


I won't be on here for a few days, I'll check back in with y'all probably Sunday evening or Monday to tell you why.
Also, I might have some fun news to share with y'all about the trip. Also, I'm so tired I can barely see straight, so if my writing is all out of wack I apologize.

Much love and blessing to each and every one of you.

Yay for 3 months!

 

[TarzansKat]

I'm three month dancin'!!!!

 

[KatMark]

three months.

 

[Poolrat]

3 months...well almost for me.

 

[Skybabyy]

Okay, so funny story: I started replying to this in one of my labs because I was all done with my material for the day and then my computer went on lockdown because it thought I was cheating on my lab work!! LOL If only my studies were Disney... <3

I study Psychology and Bible! Majoring in Psych with no major idea of what to do with it rotfl, and double minoring in Youth and Family Ministries and Bible. (I go to a religious university where this is normal/possible! Hahah )

My name is Deborah, but most call me Deb, Debbie, Debs/Debbles, Foxie, or Sky!! It's super nice to meet you. Thank you for being so kind!!

I will definitely take your warning about the mean people seriously. I feel like there will always be people who find their fun in spoiling a good thing. I hope I don't have to come into too much contact with that... But you never know what you'll find on the internet.

I think it's so amazing to meet people and create new friendships in a healthy and safe environment. Disney meet ups sound like a dream!! Omgosh... SO COOL!

To be honest, I never really was a computer person until a couple years ago when I got really sick, and since then I have been so blessed to meet wonderful friends through shared hobbies of singing and acting! It's so cool to say you have friends from around the world! I can't wait to make some Disney friends too!! <333

Your new shirts are adorable! Love the colors!

Wouldn't that be fun!!

Oh wow!! Ambitious! Good for you!! I've wanted to go back to school for a while now, but I just don't think it can happen any time soon. I've wanted to go back to do soo many things, but my true hearts desire is to be a Christian counselor. Well, a counselor not just Christian.

My name is Deborah, but most call me Deb, Debbie, Debs/Debbles, Foxie, or Sky!! It's super nice to meet you. Thank you for being so kind!!

Hi Debbie!

I will definitely take your warning about the mean people seriously. I feel like there will always be people who find their fun in spoiling a good thing. I hope I don't have to come into too much contact with that... But you never know what you'll find on the internet.

I think it's so amazing to meet people and create new friendships in a healthy and safe environment. Disney meet ups sound like a dream!! Omgosh... SO COOL!

I actually got to meet up with a friend I met from the Disboards this last week!! I'll post more about that later.

To be honest, I never really was a computer person until a couple years ago when I got really sick, and since then I have been so blessed to meet wonderful friends through shared hobbies of singing and acting! It's so cool to say you have friends from around the world! I can't wait to make some Disney friends too!! <333

Oh gosh, I hope everything is okay now. It's great you were able to take something that was meant by the enemy for bad and allow God to turn it into something wonderful. He's so good to us that way. Singing and acting!! You are a truly well rounded girl!!
I do have friends from all over!! The Dis boards have been a true life line for me, especially all the good friends I've made through it.
I'm glad you stopped into my PTR to start your journey of making wonderful friends here. You certainly got a friend in me. See what I did there? "I always say there's nothing like a good joke.
....and that was nothing like a good joke." Okay, I'll stop, y'all don't have to leave.

Your new shirts are adorable! Love the colors!

Thank you Mary Ellen!! My first one's, I love the colors too!

As some of you know, my mom was diagnosed with breast and lung cancer back in Oct. of 2011. She's been doing treatment and doing well, or so we thought.

We found out today the cancer (I never say "her cancer," it's like you are owning it when you say it's yours or someone else's-I won't give into saying it's my mom's cancer-ever) has come back and come back with a vengeance. It's all through out her body now, in her bones, and I think now in her left lung (they removed her right upper lobe last year).
Needless to say, since I'm at home, I'll be taking her to all her appts., they want to start radiation right away so it will be every day of me driving 25 mins. out of my way to get her to bring her all the way back into town to then drive her downtown another 20 mins away.
It's exhausting just thinking about it, and yes I realize it makes me sound like a selfish bee for saying it, but that is what I'm up against. (I think you all know a bit about my mom's and my history by reading the report at the start)
Well, that and a mother who is in so much pain she has to be on morphine 24/7, needless to say I won't be concentrating on exercise or much of anything else for a while. Just my momma, bless her heart, and her health.

Everyone I know on FB (that's on here) have all been so wonderful to lift us up in prayer, I can't thank you enough. I can sure use a few more to get through this, I realize what we're up against, I'm not hiding my head in the sand on that one.
It's hard to watch someone who you love (and drives you totally crazy) going through pain and suffering.

My mom has taught me being tough is all in the mind, everything can be delt with so long as you have the right mindset, probably why I've been able to get through this weight loss (and many other things) journey like I have.

If you think of us, keep us lifted up. I don't want to be derailed on my weight loss journey now, but I know I'll do what I have to help my mom. I suppose the weight can.....well, wait. Yes, I know, bad timing for humor. But sometimes, humor is all you have left.

My love to you all.

I posted in FB and I will repeat here. Your momma is in my prayers, I send you my love and strength and

It's appreciated more than you could possibly know, Ms. Kat.

 

[zanzibar138]

Sorry to hear about your Mum. You've done so well with your weight loss, you can probably afford to take it easy with that for a while to take of her. I'll be thinking of you and your family

 

[Poolrat]

Camille,
Thinking about you and your mom. Truly bad news, but like you said you both are tough and sending you prayers and support to get through every day.

 

[TarzansKat]

God bless you. I will think of you often, and keep you, your mom, and your family in my prayers.
