Waiting!!!!

I haven't posted here in a couple of days put there isn't really much news right not since everything is on hold and I'm waiting! Waiting for the insurance to HOPEFULLY approve the surgery and waiting to see if I've been accepted into graduate school! I'm so worried about everything that I can't sleep very well the last few weeks :(. I love sleep need 8 hours or I'm a cranky cranky person :( and yet I've on been getting about 4 to 5 hours of sleep a night even on weekends! Ahhhh! I tell myself everything will work out in the end and to have faith, but sometimes its hard to believe that maybe this time things will work just the way I plan them too.

On to better things I leave to San Antonio, TX on Tuesday!!! It's my yearly trip to my beautiful city that I hope to move back to one day! And for the first time in 3 years I'll be staying for 7 whole days!!! My sister and her friend are coming down with me since they both just turned 21 and want to hang with the pros for a couple days and see what partying is really about lol! Kidding....not really...sort of. I have no free time to relax I am literally booked every day and I think I overbooked some days! Its very hard when you have so many friends living in one place you can't really just see some of them or the others get their feelings hurt, I learned that lesson the hard way from the first visit. The most exciting thing is spending time with my 5 closest friends, we went through some tough times together! College was a big wake up call to a lot of us who moved far away from our parents. We grew up very quickly and learned to lean on each other in order to survive. Like I tell them often, which I know the get tired of hearing :), I would not have made it without them, they were my shoulder to cry, the people that made me laugh until i cried, they are my family and without them in my life on a daily basis I feel a lil empty :(. I love those girls! I better stop watery eyes, I have to save it for the tearful goodbyes and see you soons!

FIESTA!!!! Yup that's why I decided next week for my trip...How do I explain fiesta? San Antonio literally shuts down the city to party for one whole week...I'm not kidding most businesses, especially in the downtown area, close at noon all week! They close the streets down and party party party!!! Food SO BAD FOR YOU but oh so good! Chicken on a stick!!!!!! AHHH Booze, booze and more booze! Beer, MARGARITAS, hurricanes, Sangria, wine, and anything else you can think of is sold at every other booth in the city! I'm so excited! And I know my sister will love it! I will make a San Antonian of her you wait and see! (I'll post another day about my plan to force all my family to move at least one hour from San Antonio so I dont miss anyone! :) )

Well I'll stop my rambling now. According to the doctor's office I should have an answer from the insurance by the time I get back from my trip. And that should also be around the same time that I get either approved or denied from Graduate School! Its going to be an emotional end of the month, regardless if the news is good or bad, or both. Wish me luck!

Psych Evaluation

Just came back from my psych evaluation and I was really nervous...for no reason. The Dr. was great he was really nice and just asked me questions about my life, how its going, and what changes do I have to make for myself. It was good to talk to someone who isn't judging me, plus he told me that I don't look anywhere near as heavy as I am...boost of confidence :). He actually recommend a book for me...but for my Graduate course work lol. He said he read it in college as a business major and thought I would benefit from it...Nice guy :).

I'm a little irritated though...He asked me when my surgery is I said I don't know he asked well you've been approved through the insurance right I said no. He seemed surprised that I didn't know anything about a timeline he said that he usually sees patients that are about to do that surgery within a month or so. My primary doctor asked me the same thing said that if she was clearing me for surgery it must be any time soon....:( I just wish I knew. Ah well UGI tomorrow then they submit with the insurance and I have to get on the Doctor's diet....EWWW :)

Changes!

Bare with me this is my first post and hopefully not my last! I have so many things going on in my life right now that I feel if I don't put them down I might go Coo Coo! So this is really for...me :) I've been an avid reader of blogs for a year or so and thought maybe now is the time to start my own.

Let me start off my introducing myself...Hola Cindy here! I currently live in Southern California and no I don't love it :( Don't get me wrong its a beautiful area and most probably feel really lucky to be living here, but not me. I am and will always be a TEXAN!! Born and raised! Because of this and that I found myself moving to California to be closer to family and get my life in ORDER!

THINGS ARE FINALLY CHANGING! I am in the process of submitting for lap band surgery and applying for Graduate School all at the same time. If things work out I might actually be starting school and getting the surgery days/weeks apart. Which is STRESSFUL! But, I'm tired of not living my life. I feel like I've been sitting in front of the TV these past 3 years watching people live their lives while I watch and mine is just passing me by. I finally decided that this was the year for change!

So here I go posting my ups and downs (hopefully more ups) I have my psych evaluation tomorrow and then my UGI on Thursday...then the doctor submitts to the insurance company....MY BIGGEST FEAR! :( Oh well "Que Sera...Sera" Also I'm finishing up my essays by Wednesday ::CROSSING FINGERS:: and I WILL submitt my application for graduate school by friday!!! AAHHHH!!
