Good Morning, Dear Friends! I love the smell of the wood stove on chilly mornings. It is FINALLY rainy here in SW Oregon. This explains why I just wanted to stay in bed & sleep this morning, as this always happens to me when we have a good rain. Also my joints are really stiff & sore, but not too bad considering I haven't taken my AM pain pills yet. We probably won't go out to church today, but will watch a bible study on DVD. I can't believe my last weigh-in on here was OCT 4th! At least my weight is the same, though I gained then lost 2 lbs in the interim. There was a mess-up at my Dr's office & they said the prescription for the pain pills I've been taking for like a year now suddenly needs to be physically picked up from their office as a hard copy, then taken to my pharmacy for refills. When I questioned her the office gal even said this was a new change. So I ripped her a new one (a VERY rare thing for me to do), because we had made the 60 mile round trip to the city at least twice in the last week, so could have easily picked up the prescription ourselves & got the meds, IF their office had let us know about this change. I called our DD at work & told her of the problem, & she picked up the prescription yesterday AM & dropped it off at our pharmacy in a nearby little town before coming here. She says the pharmacy gal told her that I was mis-informed by the Dr's office, & they only need a fax from the Dr's for the prescription to be refilled! So they gave DD my pain meds, plus another med I had ordered. Tomorrow I'm going to be chatting with my Dr's Office Manager about getting their act together! I'm very happy to say that Thursday was my first day back at the YMCA for pool therapy. It was GREAT! I was quite sore Thursday evening, & had slight trouble sleeping that night, but felt great Friday & yesterday. Now I can get back to some serious weight loss. I've decided that on my YMCA days I'll just eat a good healthy breakfast, but just an apple or something very light for lunch, then our regular low carb-low fat dinner. I think this will really help me to lose weight a little faster than I have been, which is way too slow. I'm so excited that I only need to lose 39.6 lbs more to have my left hip replacement, & don't want to keep dragging along. I need to reach my goal weight & have the surgery, then continue with my healthy eating lifestyle til I reach my ultimate goal weight of around 150 to 170 lbs. I totally can't believe I'm almost there! Thanking the Lord for being right there with me all the way, I could NOT have done this by myself! Wishing all my FS Buddies a lovely, happy & blessed Sunday, ((((HUGS)))) GLAMMER
