Wednesday has been very, very good to me!

I love Wednesdays. I used to hate Wednesday. When I first divorced, every Wednesday my boys would go to their dad's house. It was so hard for me. I was lonely and didn't know what to do with the time alone. So, after a while, I decided that Wednesday would be my day to do whatever I wanted to do. I could get my nails done, go out with friends for a cocktail, rent a movie. Wednesday was my day. Now, 6 years after my divorce and 3 years into my second marriage, Wednesday is still a great day, it's date night for my husband and me. Every Wednesday, we get home from work, and go to our favorite bar/grill. We have dinner and cocktails, catch up with our friends and just be a couple without talking about what the kids need from us. It's just a really nice night. So.....happy Wednesday everyone, and thanks for all of your support!

That's awesome! That would make me love Wednesdays, too! For me, it's just the day of the week that is blocking the last half of the week which is blocking the weekend. :) Don't hate 'em, don't love 'em, they're just there. I like your thinking much better!

:) My day was Friday. They are all grown now and I had a baby with my second husband (now 8). I still remember fab fridays...at first i was lonely and sad when my girls left to visit their dad but being a single grown-up without responsibility quickly gained charm. Happy Wednesday!

Hi Tess! Thank you so much for stopping by my blog because it brought me to yours! We are twins, born a few days apart (I'm Jan. 20) separated by at birth!

I was married for 18 years to a man who had many issues, we had 2 beautiful daughters, divorced, I was always waiting for Jerry Springer's peeps to call me to be a guest on his show, gained and lost and gained a lot of weight, met and married the love of my life and I am now waiting to be banded in Mexico on 3/24! I only hope the facility is a little nicer than the one in your dream! OMG, I am so happy I found you little sister! lol.

Ok, I'm breathing now. You will get a date, believe me. It will happen. So many others who have the insurance cover it seen to have to jump through hoops but ultimately get it covered.

The fact that I did't have to jump through hoops because I am self pay is the only good thing about self pay! My BMI was too low for BCBS to cover the surgery. They actually told me to gain 70 lbs. WTF? Anyway, after researching it to death, with the love and support of my hubs, we decided I would go to MX to get it done. It is costing me $7,000 with is $10,000 less than what it would have cost me here with self-pay. I am so happy with my decision and have already set up my after-care here in Florida.

My Mexican surgeon even has an annual Bandster Bash in August. I'm not sure if I will be going this year but plan to next year! Anyway, keep looking forward and you will get a date. I'm older than you so its only fair that I go first.
