It's almost "Turkey Day"

We don't have a lot of news to share. We are trying to stay warm. The kids are keeping us busy with their activities and birthday parties. Nolan had three this weekend. He had so much fun. 

Is it too early to wish for a snow day? I think it is the cold weather making me think about it. Maybe it will happen before December. It's so fun to have a surprise day at home with the kids. 

Weightloss update:  I started limiting my carbs last week and I've lost 6 pounds. My doctor said I had to eliminate the carbs as much as possible. The first few days are horrible, but I'm doing okay now and I'm not having a ton of cravings anymore.

In an earlier post I said I had an upcoming surgery. On December 3 I am having a hysterectomy and bladder suspension. Apparently, my uterus is falling and pressing on my bladder. This causes some issues that will only get worse if we don't fix it. John and I had decided that our family is complete so this isn't a sad thing for us. If we need to add to our family we will just add a four legged friend down the road (after ours are gone of course).

Take care.
Karen

Congratulations on the 6 pounds! That is awesome!!! You need to email me and tell me more. I want to hear more about your surgery too.

I am also dreaming of snow days already. I love watching it snow all day while I lounge around in my pajamas. :)
