Wow, has it been that long since updating my blog. Shame on me, I need to get better at posting. Let's see what is new since the last post. I am working quite a bit more these days. I am traveling more right now. I spent a week in Sacramento and a week in Oakland. Heading down to Southern California the second week in May.
I had an echogram done recently and it appears my ejection fraction is up to 40ish percent. I had a fraction of 10% last May and 20% in last November. This is good news and I am hoping to get off some medication in May.
My weight is doing good I am over 14o pounds down since being sick in May. I am now 214 and hanging in there. I have had good success with my Vertical Gastrectomy. I am very pleased and blessed I was able to get the surgery.
Tammy and I was able to run away the other weekend. We went to Eureka and stayed the weekend and walked on the beach and just spent some good quality husband and wife time together. We will have to do that at least twice a year just for our sanity.
Kids are doing good starting to see the end of school for the summer. There excited and not so excited. We really need to find a camp or something for them to attend to get away.
Later for now.

Changes
From this day forward I will be making normal entries. I will give a WLS updated every Tuesday. That will be on the week mark since surgery.
I weighed in at 297.2 this morning. I have been doing pretty good. I am eating fine (well small amounts) and drinking my water. I am trying to get my water in more then food.
Tammy is off to some Honey Bee Festival with Pampered Chef. I am so proud of her and what she is accomplishing in Pampered Chef. I am a little antsy in the pantsy right now. I am bored at home and ready to go back to work. Once my wounds heal I will think about going back. I am going to go ride with Dad tomorrow to get out and see how things go.
Take care for now.

Today was very interesting. As usual it started at 0515 this morning. Dragged my butt out of bed and got around. I kissed my wife good bye and went to work. Had a good day and took a lot of calls. Then at 1130 the weekly staff meeting took place and I had to stay on the phones. The meeting turned out to be quite lengthy and I am glad I was not in this one. The group got an ass chewing over the BTI training that was held on a Saturday. Appearently, there were some that went to HR complaining that we did not get paid for the mandatory training. My manager felt like she was stabbed in the back for her people not communicating there feelings about the training.
How do I feel about this. I can go both ways on it. Yes I wanted to be paid for it, but they did pay for the course and lunch. It turns out they are going to pay us 5 hours after all.
Well the best part of today is my dear sweet wife. After 2 or 3 months of letting her hair grow she got it cut. She wanted it to grow long in the back and instead it grew puffy on top and the side. She asked me what I thought of her hair and for once in 10 years I told her what I felt. I told her it looked like a mop. Well that did not hurt her but she said fine help me find a hair style. So after searching the web for hair styles we found Hairdos Main Frame and HAIR STYLES CATALOG. I actually sat down with her and we seach hundreds of photos and narrowed it down to two styles. So I e-mailed them to myself at work and printed them out and asked some women at work which they liked. So unanamously we chose one. After work I took her to get her hair trimmed.
I figured after lossing 40 Ibs and continuing to lose weight and looking better by the day. I wanted her to pamper herself. The haircut looked great and when we got home we colored her hair. She wanted to lighten it, so I helped and we lightened it. I told her to go down and make an appointment to get her nails done. She asked if she get her eye brows done also. I said why not, so she went down and made an appointment to get her nails done and then she had her eye brows plucked.
I tell you what she is one hot women. I am one very lucky man to have her as my wife. I may not say it enough but she is the best.
Well it is almost 2100 and time to get off.
