Ok, now that I took the plunge, there is no stopping me I guess! I just wanted to add some things. We have been living in Florida full-time since Sept. 09. We bought the house in Feb. 08 but went back and forth from Long Island, NY to Ormond Beach Fl., for 18 months. All of my family, with the exception of my dad, still live on Long Island. This was the hardest decision I have ever made. To move away from my mother, sister and most of all, my two daughters. We asked both girls to come down with us but at this time they have chosen to stay in NY. My weight has been all over the place during this period as you can imagine!
Anyway, this past week we had my dad, my sister and her family and then Steves friend and his family staying with us. What a week! I cry when no one is here than I cry when I have a full house! OMG! what a week! Everyone is gone now and its just Steve, me and Brutus (my little boy puppy, you'll meet him later). So quiet. We have one week of normalcy than my girlfriend and her hubs will be arriving next Sunday for 4 days. Once they leave, I have two weeks before leaving for Mexico for my Band!
I am thankful that this round of company came pre-band. Once I get the band, I will have 3 weeks before I fly to NY to go wedding dress shopping with my oldest daughter. I hope I am passed the pain stage at that point but I am looking forward to spending time with just me and my girls. My daughter who is getting married is 23 and my younger daughter is 19 and is a college student.
Ok, thats all for today, I promise.

You'll be fine by your trip! Sounds like it will be a lot of fun! You'll just need to do a little planning for meals, but that's no biggie. You can find the menus for most NYC restaurants on www.menupages.com and plan what to order in advance. :)
I am honored that you are my first follower! Thank you! Thank you for the menu link...will definitely come in handy!
Hi there, Jacquie :)
I saw your comment on my blog and came right over. Such an exciting time for you - and a great idea choosing to being banded in Mexico.. there are a few girls I read that have had the surgery there but one that really sticks out (she's JUST gorgeous!!...do you read My Banditas blog? I know she was banded there?...) Got to find the address for you .. brb...
Okay, her address is: http://mybandita.blogspot.com/ It might help you some with different bits of info :)
Anyway, congrats on your decision and thanks so much for checking into my blog.... I'm honored. You only have a month now until the big day AND so much happening in between. At least it will keep your mind busy lol. Have fun over the next few weeks with all your visitors and look forward to more posts.
