    Way to go Lady K!

    You'll only be nervous up until you start school. You'll be fine once you begin.

    I've put aside money to buy you and Klingon coffee, so don't let me down. I expect to meet you guys out there one these days. I need to add your names to my list of TTR members that I've met. :biggrin_255:

    I feel you guys on the weather. After that cluster fudge in NYC with the last snow, they've suspended deliveries for a while.

    Gah, grounded sucks.

    I know how you feel! We're snowed in Montville, Connecticut. Picked up a preload in Montville, CT bound for north of Buffalo, NY. Thankfully my trainer's stepmom lives only a few miles away from where we parked the truck for the night. So she came and picked us up to stay at her place last night. Looks like we'll be here all day and another night as well.

    Hi Lady K! I just wanted to tell you how much I have enjoyed reading about you and your husbands journey!
    My husband just started driving for Boyd Brothers. We talk about me someday joining him on the road! We have 2 kids at home age 8 and 6 so it will be a "few" years!! LOL!!
    I also had RNY, it will be 10 years ago in April.

    SWEET!! Yeah my daughter (our one and only) is 26, married and is expecting her first - so she is old enough for us not to be in town all the time. Maybe you can have a 'summer camp' for the kids and go on a ride along for a couple weeks... see if its something you would enjoy doing. Klingon on and I would take vacations where we would just pick a direction - not destination - and just go :)

    Congrats on the RNY - our was in April of 2009 - so we are coming up on our 2 year surgiversary :D we definately would NOT be doing this is we hadn't of had the surgery. The straw that tipped us over the edge is both of us being diagnosed as diabetics. Now - BS are completely normal!! He no longer needs any asthma meds, heart meds, etc. and the same goes for me!!

    PS: in my avatar - those are his old pants we are both standing in... and they are even a bit loose (Woo Hoo) together we have lost about 350#!! Now the goal is to KEEP it off! (easier said than done at times)
