I need help of some sort.
Today I was going to blog about actually getting off my arse and going for a walk, but instead I'm back to my usual problem if Miss Molly (the border collie) pulling palings off the back and side fences where there happens to be other dogs. This would not normally be a problem if I didn't have Master Humphrey the Alaskan Malamute who of course doesn't like small dogs and will go into the other properties causing God knows what problems.
You may remember some time ago the neighbour on the left had a Jack Russell. I say had as some how after palings were removed by Miss Molly, said neighbours dog ended up dead in our back yard!
I don't know how to fix this problem of her pulling off the palings. Its doing my head in and once Daz gets home he will be less than impressed once again. I thought about running the clear plastic along the fences like they place around trees to stop the wild life ruining the trees but Daz says it won't work. Anyone else have any thoughts on what I can do?
Follow me on my journey to good health and a successful road to a family born from embryo adoption............

hypnotherapy
I was thinking today about undertaking hypnotherapy for weight loss. Has anyone done this in the past or know of anyone who has done it? I called today to check the price and number of sessions required which was $95 (goes for about an hour) and takes about 3 sessions, done once a week or every second week depending on the person and then only if you fell like you need it. Of course they said it was highly effective, but that's something I would expect them to say. Couldn't imagine them saying, 'oh yeah come along and give us money but don't expect any changes'. I guess I won't know if it will work unless I give it a go.

The crapola you see
You know I was preparing for diner tonight when I heard on the TV a new 'detox' diet.
Lose a dress size in 2 days! How can that be good advertising. There really should be something stopping that type of advertising. You even get to try it for FREE for 21 days!

God I'm bored
I'm so bored I'm now playing Uno online with Facebook for God's sake.
Isn't it funny that when I think I will start exercising by going for a walk, it rains!
Does anyone know if you can walk the 10km for the Melbourne Marathon??

Update on hubby
So as it turns out after seeing the cardiologist, Daz does have this Wolff-Parkinson White Syndrome which means that he will have to see the man that I will be calling the 'heart electrician' cause I don't know what else to call him...........
Apparently they can do some sort of day procedure to fix the problem, when this happens he will be out of action for 6-8 weeks, me is freaking a little since he is now self employed so that means no funds! f course we are going to leave this little condition away from our government adoption agency. No need to alarm them................ If this little day procedure doesn't work it will be a matter of cracking the chest open to fix it. I'm just going to assume until proven wrong that it will be the day procedure that fixes the problem.
Now onto issue number 2. Gallstones. It appears that Daz has 10 5mm stones which means he has to have his gallbladder out. But wait for it, not until his heart op. I didn't go to the doctors appointment but Daz tells me the doctor was speaking to him as if he was dying. He is a little worried now. It also appears that it is a certainty that he will have more gallstone attacks and has been advised by the doctor to inform his work that if they see him changing to the colour of yellow to call an ambulance!
Lucky we are in the ambulance that's for sure but we do not have private health insurance. The doctor seems to think that even though we do not have private health insurance that we will get through the waiting list for the heart procedure very quickly but our next appointment isn't until the 7th of September.
I'm just so worried that if I cook the wrong food or he eats something at work he might end up in all that pain again. However the doctor said that if he has the attack again they may have no option but to remove his gallbladder first.
On the high side, I got a job, I start on the 31st of August, however its not the job I want. I have another 2 weeks to get the job I want but that seems unlikely since the job applications closed 2 weeks ago and they haven't sort listed yet! That's government jobs for you.

The results
Well this seems to have turned into Dazza's blog doesn't it? But I guess he does effect my life so its not so bad to blog about him.
It turns out he does have Wolff-Parkinson's White syndrome, we have another appointment with the doctor I will call the 'heart electrician' to tell us our options for having this extra abnormal pathway in the heart treated on the 7th of September so will update after this appointment on the treatment, in the mean time he just has to carry on as per normal, what ever that is. LOL
Ultrasound was this morning for gallstones, as it turns out again, another yes, he has a very large one which the tech told him to take it easy on the fried and fatty foods because its large enough to KILL him. Nice........ so we are off to the doctors on Friday night to find out the next course for this one as well.
Back to me, I'm still not working, went for a temp role yesterday part time, but we have to weight and see. On a good note I joined 'The Biggest Loser Online' last week in a moment of weakness, haven't been following it but have gone from 92.7 to 90.8 in the week. Don't know how that happened but I guess not frying anything since Dazza's attack is making a difference maybe.
