I'm glad October is over....

Post by howfunisthat » Mon Nov 02, 2009 2:50 pm

October was a mess! I started the month with a week of thinking about food. I was tired of thinking about it and tired of battling it. So I didn't....but I didn't see it as an awful event...just a week of a break. After that I was back to green days & then friends of ours lost their son after a long battle with a horrible disease (Battens Disease - http://www.bdsra.org/). Then even before the memorial service, I had an awful Gallbladder attack & ended up at the ER. I had surgery on Wednesday which was unfortunately long & more extensive than they had planned. I'm finally able to sit and write and I'm THRILLED to be on the road to recovery. So...I'm still here...I'm not going anywhere...but I think I'm starting over on November and letting October be a distant memory. Who cares what color the days were - I'm gallbladder free and happy to be on the finished side of surgery!

I hope your Novembers are the best ever....

While my October was nowhere near as bad as yours, I'll echo the sentiment. After a perfect September for both Shovelglove and No-S, I had two red days for each in October. I want to do better this month, though I already have one red day on Shovelglove!
Shovel glove? Isn't that the size of prophylactic I use?
