Milestones
Apr. 9th, 2008 10:23 amOkay, there's at least two other things (other than
dotgirl's Birthday) about today that are important.
It is
aquatwo's Birthday (and he's celebrating low-key by just chillin' from what I heard)
It is
khristle's BANDAVERSARRY! Exactly one year ago today she paid a strange man to stick a twistie-tie in her belly so she'd feel fuller! The lap Band Surgery has changed our lives :)
Oh, and ANOTHER great thing about today! My body has finally decided to get off that fenc-post between size 52 and 50... too small for a 52, too big for a 50... and I am now wearing my SIZE 50 PANTS!
Before my lap band Surgery last year (March 18th? I didn't keep track) I was in a size 62 and looking to move up in to a size 64 pants. Now I'm just *1 size* away from being able to buy brand new pants off the rack at most any retail outlet! What I'm really looking forward to is next year when i can fit in to a size 42... there's MILES and MILES of Size 42 pants at every thrift store! I'll finally be able to buy those cool Parachute pants from the early 90's and have them look like PARACHUTE PANTS instead of SPANDEX!

Date: 2008-04-10 06:14 am (UTC)I would also like to add that today is/was also mine and Todd's (original) anniversary. This marks 19 years of wedded bliss... with a 2 year break that some forget about. He actually insists on celebrating this as our anniversary. But hey, I got dinner out of it. It's all good :)

Date: 2008-04-10 06:14 pm (UTC)Let's see... I think the breakdown goes something like this:
Married in April 9, 1989, split Oct. 21, 1995, divorced in June of 1997, back together Oct. 21, 1997 (creepy, I know!), married Dec. 10, 1998.
We're a strange couple :)
