Hi Wedy & Awaterlily,

Thanks for your support! I actually went to the doctor yesterday and he was pleased with my progress! I have lost 14lbs since 9/10 and he up graded me to eat some soft foods! Whoohoo!!!! I had 3ozs. of mashed potatoes and 4ozs. of a fat free/sugar free yogurt! It was so good to eat something! So as of now I have officially lost 45lbs. since mid July(I was on a high protein liquid diet for 2 months prior to surgery and lost the other 30 some pounds). I go back to the doctor in a month and I return back to work on Oct. 1. So things are going well, thank God... Thanks for asking and keep the faith Wendy, your time will come for your love to be with you. Just take 1 day at a time and try to talk to him everyday if you can, that helps. And Awaterlily, your baby is absolutely gorgeous! You are so blessed to have a little angel!

Take care now,

~Deb

Wow Deb. 45 lbs. I am so happy for you. In another week, you will be back to work. That is really great. Continued success!!! Thanks for the good thoughts too Deb. Even though I am sad we are still apart, I am glad for the extra time. I too would like to lose some weight before I see him again.

Awaterlily, your daughter is so precious!! What a beauty!! We have a little orchard by us, and one day we picked some peaches and made peach pie. It was fun. I love apple pie too. I am glad you are enjoying this end of summer weather. It is such a nice time of year (except for the allergies), but I am really enjoying the sunshine. Maybe we will plan some day trips too. I think my sister wants to go to one of those corn mazes next week. I just hope the temp. haven't climbed back up by that time!!

Take care everyone!!

Wendy

Deb - thats awesome! Glad to hear all is going well. Keep us posted with your progress.

Wendy - I haven't had a peach pie in forever. Sounds wonderful. BTW..have you ever checked out www.allrecipes.com? I love cooking/baking and I love that website for finding new recipes and inspiration. I have so many apples even baking pies won't put a dent in my supply. LOL I guess I'll be baking lots of yummies for friends ;-)

Thanks for the compliments on our daughter! I wish you all could hear her laughing spells...it's so darn cute!

cheers

Hi Everyone,

Just had to write something because we were back down at the bottom again and we need to be at the top!!

So, how is everyone doing?

Deb, another week down. How is everything?

Awaterlily, how did the apple pies come out? I bet they were delicious. Oh, and I know what you mean about little ones laughter. There is just something about it that makes you smile from ear to ear!!!

Well, Take care everyone.

Oh Deb, so sorry you have to return to work on Monday. I am so glad everything continues to go well for you though. I am fine, thanks for asking.

I live 20 min. from Valley Forge, PA. It is a great location. Only 60 min. from Philadelphia in one direction and 60 min to Hershey (yum chocolate) in the other.

What college did you attend in PA?

Oh, you are in a great location! Hershey's! Yum! I went to Slippery Rock Univ., 45 min. north of Pittsburgh, so that's all the way on the western side of PA. No where near you... But I love PA. I hope to take Resul one weekend to Amish country, Lancaster area this fall. It's so beautiful there and he loves farmland and animals. Have a good day Wendy!

Yes, I know of Slippery Rock. My sister, mother and niece and I went to Pittsburg over the Labor day weekend. I love Pittsburg!! The view from the incline is amazing!!!

I only live 30 min. from Lancaster. When you and Resul visit the area drop me a line, maybe we could meet for lunch.

Talk to you later,

Wendy

Isn't the incline great! I love Pittsburgh too! I still have a few good friends that live out there. I need to take a trip out and see them soon... Sounds great! If we ever go out that way I will contact you prior! Thanks Wendy! Have a good week!

Hi Everyone!!!

Sorry I didn't get a chance until now to post here since I have been busy working too much as of lately and being in the retail business and all I will not get a chance to even breathe until the end of January!!!

Well my husband Coskun is finally home now and working on getting his old job back at the bank, he definitely needs to start working soon! He also got his driver's permit as soon as he got back from Turkey and is now busy working on getting his license so that he can buy his car as soon as possible!

Anyway I will try to come here whenever possible to say hello to everyone and hope everyone is doing well. Good Luck to all those still waiting for their visa process.

Best wishes and take care everyone,

Mina

Good to hear from you. Glad Coskun is home safely and starting to get back into his routine here in the US. I know this is a busy time for you. Thanks for saying "hi".

Take Care,

Wendy
