quick ten things

because I am in a time crunch but really not ready to dive into the work stuff just yet...

1.  I am getting my first unfill today.  I have been ignoring a lot of symptoms that I really shouldn't have been.  Truth is, I am scared to death to gain any weight back. 

2.  Maybe with some more calories I will be able to run better, not get worn out as quickly. Just in time for my last long run (13.1miles) before route 66!!

3.  Today is the deposition because of crazy lady at work.  I am glad I have so much going on because I don't have time to dwell on it much.

4.  Next week I will be traveling around on a project for work!  A whole week out of the office.  Best part is I will be working in Tulsa Thursday and Friday.  Thursday is my birthday so I will be home for that.  Not that I celebrate it or anything but still.

5.  Not a lot of trick or treat monsters last night.  We used  have so many more.  I think people do the church thing more.  I only stayed out until 8:30 because I hate when the packs of teenagers come up, it just makes me and my dogs nervous.

6.  Leftover candy was sent to work with Dennis.  Of course with the way food makes me feel (reflux) chocolate doesn't even sound good.

7.  Route 66 half/marathon November 18!! 

8.  I can't believe the holidays are so close!!  Not that we will be able to do much with the whole dental surgery thing but wow, time flies.

9.  Need to figure out where and when I can do the early voting thing since I will be gone next week.  Not that it really matters so much, my ideals are completely opposite of the majority opinion in my crimson red state.

10.  Hope all of you guys in the east coast are safe and sound!!

UPDATE-------

Doctor Atkins took .5 cc from my band.  I made him promise that if my weight got above 115 he would give me another fill.  At home I had been at 112.2 for ever but it was to the point that I thought something was up with my scale.  I weighed at the doctor's office and I was 111.6.  He said that I probably wasn't having reflux, it was probably just my food moving so slow through my band that it was jut sitting there.  Either way, he said he suspected I was too tight for awhile but was doing a good job at finding easy band food (if that makes any sense)

There is a nutrition supplement store in the same complex as his clinic, he wanted me to walk over with him and talk to the guy to come up with some kind of supplements that will help me with endurance during running.  I got a couple of things.  I hope to be able to run tonight and give it a try, I really don't want to try it out for the first time on a 13 mile run.  My side is kind of sore where the fluid was removed.  I never have any problems after a fill so I'm not sure what is up with that.

Doctor Atkins also said he was going to see if he can find a port that is more low profile than the one I have.  Mine sticks out pretty far when I lay down.  Not sure I want to go through the whole process though.  I will try and take some pictures an show you what I mean.
