Glad I work and study, less time to think about much anything and be a nervous wreck!!


Praying for everyone!

Lov'ya all!

Congrats!! that's half of the waiting done...with it being Friday, maybe you'll hear back today without having to wait through the weekend. (Sabrenia can tell you what that was like for her--she didn't know she had already been approved and had to wait out a holiday weekend for the answer!).

Got stuff crossed for you!

YES and I can not wait. I wish we all could have met and took a group picture before surgery but I am planning on getting us a picture after surgery (1 year post) and then putting all of our before pictures sxs. It will be a site to see!!

hey girls...

i'm lurking... just trying to settle down and b.r.e.a.t.h.e... i'm not doing anything until i find out what insurance i'm stuck with.

THANK YOU... THANK YOU... for the positive energy. I know my time is coming. I KNOW IT. I just need to stay upbeat. Next week will be better. A fresh start even.

Hubby surprised me with tickets for the Bears game in Chicago, so we're off for a getaway... I'm excited and I'm not letting anything ruin it.

I'll check in again on Sunday!

much love girls... and crossed everything for everyone on pins and needles!!!
