Ticker Love!

Today is a good day!
I spent the morning yesterday with my dear friend Kathy (who dutifully transported me and stayed with me on my surgery day back in July). Summer just was a blur for me and apparently everyone else.... I was bad about staying in touch with the people that mean the most to me, namely Ms. Kathy. Now, I need to also say that I have been forbidden from coming to her house until her kitchen remodel was complete (4.5 months later I am still not allowed in....) I have actually forgotten what her house looks like on the inside! Kathy came over and picked me up to go and do our annual "buying pumpkins and mums" run! She walked in the kitchen and just started screaming!!! Screaming "Holy @$%#!!!" over and over and grabbing me and hugging me all the time screaming! It was the BEST!!!!! I was over the moon for that kind of reaction! She made my day, week, month! I love her! I actually have talked to her many times on the phone since my surgery, but just not seen her in person. I was actually concerned because I thought that the 15 pounds that I have lost since my surgery wouldn't be enough to even notice. I guess I was wrong! I got all the cheering and rah-rahs that I could ever want.
Here's to all the great girl-friends to pump you up and let you know when you are doing a great job. I am going to pay it forward and make sure to make all my friends know how great they are on the inside and outside!!
