    Loving Fun Friday!

    I'd say the biggest decisions of your life, were not your career, your marital status, or your home... they were choosing to love as often as you have.

    And that's a lot,
    The Universe

    Here is to a very loving Friday to all modsters visiting!

    Waves, it is great to see you here. Sorry I haven't been on again. Been up since 3:30 so I could get a bit of relax time in.

    BB, have a wonderful time tonight! Very fun nails! Happy Belated Birthday!

    PP, that is hysterical! My niece would go nuts too! I find ebay and craigslist great places to catch tickets for concerts, shows, sporting events etc. How is Beth doing? I miss seeing her here!

    Ducky, can I just say- WOW!! you are doing great. I know we all start freaking a bit when blood studies are off and it is the next round. I hope all goes well with your tests. I think the biggest giggle and the best thing that kept me doing a bunch of AF days in there when I first started figuring out the program was getting up in the morning and the whites of my eyes were gleaming bright no hung over wiped out tired eyes and dry skin. It was totally vain, but there it is, it helped spur me on in an evening to talk myself into the tea! Then the tea became the habit.

    Beaches, always glad you stop in over here, I seem to not have the time to run around the whole site these days.

    Marcie, you can do this! I am sorry you had such a bad hangover this week, just a reminder we are all works in progress!

    Trixie, that is so nice that your friend is moderating too! Makes it much easier to catch up with them and not overindulge!

    Yes, E . . . where are you! Hope you are feeling much better!

    Sammy's hope you are doing well too, busy is good especially when you run the place! Gets you through the winter! Tornado? Everything OK?

    Work, work work, FUN projects but a lot of hours! Been up since 3:30 to relax my head and read the papers, not todays yet!

    Happy, loving Friday to all!
    Mary

    Mary, I have no idea how you do it. Don't I remember something about you slowing down, lol? Thanks for the encouragement. I am tired but feel great today after being af three of last four nights with one slip in between. Off for the blood tests in a bit. I will find out next week and if they are off I will just have to deal I guess.

    Hope everyone has a great day!

      Ugh, just got back from the lab and will probably have to repeat part of the test. My endo told me not to fast for bloodwork next time because he thought that the fasting might have elevated my bilirubin. (I can only hope that is it.) My primary gives me a script for the normal bloodwork (thyroid, liver panel) plus lipids but does not say anything about fasting. I get to the lab and they tell me I should have fasted. So I went ahead and let them draw since the endo had told me not to, knowing I'll probably be sent back for another lipid profile. That is not stressful in and of itself; I guess I am really just stressed worrying about the liver panel. I am trying to stay calm and tell myself that it is what it is...

      OK, enough venting.

      WHERE IS EVERYONE?

        Yeah Mary...what happened to slowing it down a bit?

        Ducky I am sure everything will be just fine. You have been so successful with your mods.

        Everything is good here in my neck of the woods. We have great weather today in the 70s and sun is shining. I am going to pick up the Hannah Montana tickets today. I am actually really looking forward to going! Maybe I'll by a concert shirt like in my youth.
        Sometimes I wonder...."Why is that frisbee getting bigger?"...and then it hits me.

          good morning!

          Hi there Ducky, sorry to hear about all the lab work, and having to go back for lipids!!?? Sometimes doctors worry me..............

          Mary And precious pinot, good to see you here this AM, you sound well..............

          Still battling w/ moderating, AF stuff, plan on drinking moderately this weekend, and going AF on Monday through the remainder of the week, as I go to Las Vegas on Thurs for 3 days, much easier to travel sober, so if I get a head start Sun-Wed, then it should go easier................am even contemplating going to some AA meetings this weekend

          Love to you all and to everyone to follow...............best of luck whatever your goals this weekend, may pop in later if I have time

          MA:h

            Thanks guys. The good news is that my doc's office called and she prefers non fasting tests because she feels the data is more valid. Once I hear next week I will feel better. I have been doing better but only recently. When I read that 3 or more drinks per day can cause liver damage in women I panicked because I have been having more than that for years, the way I measure my drinks. Plus, I have taken a couple of meds not great for the liver. It's the old question of how honest to be with your doc. I hope I won't have to be too honest.

            Sure is awfully quiet.

            Cowgal, never hurts to check out a meeting. AA is not for me but one of my best friends has really done well there. She was sober for a year last fall!

              glad

              Ducky, glad you don't have to have more labs done!! Hope your liver is fine, mine was VERY SURPRISINGLY all normal (and I had been drinking heavily for a while before they were tested) ................That was a miracle, but I have been told the liver is a very resilliant organ and it can regenerate quite remarkably well...............I'll say a little prayer for your liver tonight

              Yeah, I have tried AA sooooooooooooo may times, just going to take what I feel I can relate to tonight and possibly stay AF for a few days, it will be WONDERFUL to travel sober (done it many times both ways, and it is definitely ALOT less expensive sober!! )

              We'll see,
              Love and hugs,

              MA:h

                Have a great trip Cowgal! Thanks for the prayer. I think my liver needs it. The scary thing (I read WAY too MUCH) is that some people can drink ridiculous amounts with no damage and others can have damage just with moderate or slightly immoderate drinking. Even if my results are good I want to remember this anxiety and use it to keep my drinking in check.:thanks:

                  helps

                  That helps for me, I know it was a stroke of luck and don't take the normal results for granted...............may be getting worse now that I am getting worse w/ the drinking, not eating well, that makes it worse I have heard ..............when I drink as I have been lately, I do not eat healthily...................hope it all goes well for you, I am not drinking any more today, and WILL make the 8PM AA meeting, it will be good for me!!

                  Love ya!!:h

                          Hi Everyone!
                          Ducky, I've learned so much about liver damage after being diagnosed with hepatitis. I know people who've had the virus for over 30 years and have very little damage then others who've only had it half as long and much worse damage. Same as damage from drinking, I guess each of our bodies handle it differently.

                          I saw a job posting today for an awesome job, I really want to apply, but I wish it was a couple months in the future. I'm trying to work on certifications for my job and it would help immensely to get a new job if I had some of this done already! I'm going to think about it this weekend and make up my mind.

                          Good job for going to a meeting Cowgirl, if it is what it takes for you to be sober then do it!

                          Hope you feel better soon Trixie.

                          PP - Weather sounds wonderful, I'm happy at least it made it above zero today!

                          Mary, you sound as busy as I feel!

                          Have a great Friday night everyone!
                          Marcie
