Introduction to My BLOG

Hi Everyone,
Well I have been on a Journey for a while now and thought it would be a good idea to BLOG all that is going on in the life of Debra Nightengale (Debbie).
I am living in a nice 2 bedroom duplex on what use to be Base Housing for Offutt AFB. I feel very safe and at home here. I have had a few challenges, but with Heavenly Fathers help I have come through it still smiling.
I have missed my Friends and Family in Wisconsin, not to mention the beautiful place I called home. I think and dream of Wisconsin often. I look forward to the opportunity to visit and take a vacation at one of the lakes there.
I am currently working in the Pediatric clinic at
Offutt AFB.
I was working 5 days and week, it was just too much for me. So now
I work 4 days a week. I am still working 38 to 40 hrs. but for some reason it is a lot
easier for me to do. I guess I really need that break in the middle of the week.
One of the reasons I have decided to start a blog was to keep everyone updated
on my Bariactric Surgery. I had my pre-op today, and will be having
the surgery on the 30th of Jan. 1 week from today.
I have decided to do this due to the medical conditions I suffer from which limits my mobility and quality of life. This will allow me to have less pain and thus be
able to become more mobile. Hopefully this time next year I will be ready to start
cross country skiing. I have always wanted to.
I will be keeping Family and Friends up to date on my progress, maybe even with
photos. By the way, I asked if I could have a video tape of the procedure. They
said yes. I am looking forward to viewing it.
It is nice to be here with the majority of my Grandchildren around. Jared, Joshua, and their baby brother to be are in AZ. I just don't have enough grandsons
so I need to make sure I count them. They are my Grand babies too.
My Dog Jenni is well, getting grayer every day but still young at heart. I also now have a cat, her name is Abagail Nightengale. She is a well behaved cat and sweet too.
Well I hope you will come back soon, I will try to post at the very least once a month, hopefully more often.
Take care and love to all, You are all in my prayers.
BIG HUGS, DEBBIE
