Hi Jewels,

I'm so sorry I can't keep up with everyone's lives. I was just sitting here for a minute, I have to clean the house my daughters in laws are coming in tonight and I have to work my work at home job today too. I was thinking of everyone and Dana, and BLAM Dana wrote in. I'm so sorry that your father passed, that was wonderful you was able to take care of him and glad the cruise is still on. I have been so worried about you. Take care Lil Warrior and keep hanging in there.

 I have been so busy working the 2 jobs and studying for the new job. I have not been a CSR for 6 years, and learning all the soft ware. I think my work at home job is just a blessing and I really love it. Still learning it. THey give us 2 wks to learn our job. After that I guess were fired. I have been so stressed because they changed to a new software program, I was trained on the old one and I have not been able to work hrs this week, it's my first week of training and I have been locked out of the program. I have been so frustrated, yesterday was the frist day I could get in and actually work and have all the programs working. I really have to work on my wrap time. I want to study again today but I have to clean and go to the doctor and get my biospy results from my Gastroscopy. I'm ok, just i'm hiental hernia and gasteritis. The house is not that messy I just want it to look really good for Brandy when her guest get here. I used to be a horrible clean freak. I'm also just getting over a bad virus that I had. I thought I would die, sick and can't rest, have to work and study. Somehow I'm getting thru it. I want this work at home job to work out so I can eventually quit at kmart. Oh well we will see. I hope every one is well and your lives are in better order than mine.

Lots of Hugs, Sherry

HI Jewels Happy Saturday,

I made it to my walk today. I was kinda sad because my family was busy and I had to go by myself. Both of my sisters are having problems with thier knees and could not walk. So I did not take any pictures there. I did have a lot of fun just socializing and mostly walking. It was a 3 mile walk instead of 5. I did the 3 miles with ease. They gave me a metal and the black scarf. I have not been on in a week, because I was working at my job at kmart and then training for my work at home job as CSR. I passed all my training and will start that job soon. I'm off for the next 4 days so I will be on talking soon. I hope everyone's walk went great.

 Take care, Sherry

Hi Jewels,

I have not finished reading the post, so glad i'm not so far behind. I finally put on a picture showing off my new hair and chemo curls. I have been so busy doing the training for that on line job. It seems to be on the up and up. Tomorrow I go back to Kmart too.

D1  Thanks for letting me know the toe nails grow back. I do remember you telling me about your toenails falling off. It was so wierd my toe nails were fine until around the end of August, one of them is still black, i'm waiting for that to come off. You are right, when my other toe nail came off, there was no pain. I was so grateful for that. You are right FU breast cancer  and taxotere. My FU is Forget you BC.  I also hope you get things worked out in your personal life, don't give up, sending positive vibes your way.{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{  HUG  }}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Oh about that guy I like well he was flattered about the letter and called me, it's going slower than I hoped. He lives 45 min from me. Today we had lunch, and I thought we got along real well, he took a picture of me, poor guy. I guess we will have to wait and see, he is shy and i'm shy, I don't know. I'm hoping something will come out of this.

Big Hugs to everyone. Sherry

Hi JJ's,

How is every Jewel today?  As for me I have toe nail woes. I been meaning to mention this but kept forgetting. The day after my dd wedding my 2 big toe nails turned black. The 1 one the right turned yellow and white will soon. That one just came off. The one of the left is still black, just not sure what is is going to do. I have to say I have to join the jewels with the missing toe nails. I'm so glad it's gone, it was so ugly. Has anyone's missing toe nails started growing back yet?  I'm was just wondering. Darn Taxotere, Oh well.

KathyL  Glad surgery went well and you are healing I hope this surgery takes. I have half of my right breast left and my nipple refuses to come out. It is in and I don't think it's coming out. I have been told to wear sports bras, that's not helping either. I have just excepted it. I see the kids are keeping you busy with swim classes. Enjoy your kids while they are young, they grow up so fast. I'm glad you got to go and hear Robin Roberts speak, she seems like a really nice person. 

I just seem to be hot to trot since I got out of treatment. A man I have a crush on the other day gave me a big kiss on the mouth and a hug, 3 times. I thought maybe he is sending me a message. So being the coward that I am I wrote him a letter and asking him out. I have known him for a couple of years and he is just a few years older than me. So heres hoping, I just thought I did not have a chance with him, But you never know, I was not this hot to trot before cancer. Maybe it's a good sign.

Carol  Fish sounds so good, I think I'm have fish tonight too. Thanks for telling me about Jennifer. I hope she gets well soon, my  older sister is having her knee replaced next week.

Cathy  I'm like Carol don't know how to play bridge but could devower the food, have fun.

Joan  That's great you got to do your cancer walk and Lucy also did her part and walked too. Pretty cool. I love your hair.

So far all the jewels i have seen with their new hair it all looks great. I'm going to post a picture soon of my new hair.

Kimberly  I hope and pray your twin sister does not BC. I'm be praying for you and her. You are a busy lady with the grapes and school and meeting, where do you find the time to excersize?

Julie  I hope you are having better luck with getting your house on the market. Take care I know you are also a busy lady.

Hi Everyone,

just putting a few more post up, since I was too tired to finish last night.

Norma  Please give Julie a hug for me and Julie please give Norma a hug for me too. That's so great for you 2.

Carol  You are right we all have been so blessed to meet each other on line. Last year we all were bewildered and confused and somehow we all comforted each other and educated each other. Now look at us, we all are marathon walkers and taking better care of ourselves and I really think maybe enjoying life maybe more. Maybe somehow this is a path that we must take. We all met the devil head on and beat the devil. Sorry about your friends mom, big hugs to her {{{{{{Hugs}}}}}}}  Oh how is dear dog doing? 

paula  How is ds new job going?  Glad your port is going bye bye.

Kris  Yeah the port is gone!

Jenn  When is your knee surgery?  Hoping soon you will be a happy pink jewel. God Bless.

LG  Good one about the sopranos wedding, it was funny. I'm glad your MUGA numbers are good.

I was so happy to hear that Wendy and Therese and Norma are well. I wish we could hear form Dana and Vettegal and the others. Wishing you positive vibes.

Carol and Kimberly  I'm glad your ports are also going bye bye.

Therese  2 walks in one year. you go girl, sending lots of energy your way. The lucheon sounded like fun.

I'm also happy everyones test and scans are having great results. D1  Glad your Brca test were all neg. My daughter is from Jewish decent, maybe one day she should have that test done. Yes, this new job thing has put me in overtime stress. I think these last 2 wks have been hell for me, and I'm been trying to heal. It has been worse than child birth. Good one.

Cathy  It sounds like it was a wonderful cation. Now ds is playing football and keeping you very busy.

Hi JJ's,

I have spent 3 days on and off catching up with all of you. I have to say we are a busy bunch. I'm sorry I missed so much I have pages of notes and it feels good to know what is going on again, it makes me feel like i'm in the loop again. Still trying to sort out the new job thing. The stupid phone co finally turned on the dang phone today. They are slower than snails. I just want to do a few shout outs because I'm too tired to sort out my notes right now. I'm walking everyday up to 2 miles now. My right side gets a little sore. I going to push further tomorrow. The newly weds are great and ordered me a shuttefly book of the wedding. I was so touched and couldn't believe how beautiful all the pictures were. They bought the rights to their wedding pictures and have them on CD's and they can make the shutterfly books. So nice.  OMG  I laughed so hard at all the Dick comments, it's been very intertaining.

D1  I'm so relieved your sister is going to be ok. I hope you and your sisters have the best time in the Bahamas. Big Hugs to you. I'm glad so far your BRCA test are neg.

PAlady  I'm going to order a calender too. That is such a cool project, I know you are proud of yourself. You raised 10K and I love your chemo curls. My hair is very wavy, I guess that's chemo curls too. I have more body thatn I did before and it looks maybe thicker.

Paula  Great news for you and Hubby, you both can been threw so much this year. I really loved the thugging pics, I really think you both pulled it off.

SIS Kimberly  thank you for keeping the jewels updated for me and posting my site. I'm sorry about your friend, that is what worries me about my daughter being a teacher. Anyone could say anything about you and people believe it. I don't know where you get your energy, thank you for sending me lots of energy, maybe that's why I'm walking 2 miles already. I think that is really great you are teaching a class about writing and feelings, sounds great. Keep up the good work. Good luck on the weight loss you are doing good. I'm going to weigh myself on Monday and see how much more I have lost. Thanks for the idea of gells, now I will be able to go gellin. Thanks for the hint of chemical free mosqitoes spray. Darn those pests. Jealous of your fall weather, the 90's. It's been in the 40 and 50's and 60's here. Today was a hot one, it made it to the 60's, almost needed my mosqitoes spray. Enjoy that CA Sun.

Carol  I cried thru your 3 day jouney. So touched my picture made your photo album. I know you are sore hope you feel better soon, sending you lots of hugs and energy. I was so touched that your husband gave you that necklace, what a sentiment, he is a keeper. Enjoy your cation to Arizone for Thanksgiving. I know the first mammo after treatment is a bit eerie. Son swap?? I know I missed a lot. Glad you are hooking up with your war buddies LOL.  I was cracking up when you said I need a Get out of medical issues free card. That is so good, I'm starting to feel I have been delt one. I hope your friends baby and Steph is going good. I know I spelt his name wrong sorry. I"m glad freckle was B-9, oh my friends lump was also B-9. Carol congrats on raising all that money I know it was worth all your aches and pains.

KathyL  Sorry nipple surgery did not take, I forgot when are you having it again. Or did you just have it. Talking about chemo brain, my chemo brain is working in over time tonight. I look it up again. I'm hope your sister is healing from her gall bladder surgery wow we both had same surgery that week. I really need to take better notes. Sorry get well soon Kathy.

I love all my jewel friends, but I GTG Sherry {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{ Hugs }}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Hi Sister Jewels,

I just got home from the hospital. I went to the doctors on Tuesday and he called the hosp and had me admitted so I had to go to the hosp. The next time I went for a ultra sound and a Hida scan. Not sure how to spell it. It showed that my gall bladder was not working anymore it was producing a thick muddy sludge.  I got it out and i'm sore but ok. I know if I had not had the surgery when I did I would of died. I was in so much pain and agony. I had the Laproscopic surgery so my healing time will be shorter. They just built the new surgery wing and every patient has a big nice private room and nice big bathroom with a shower. I felt like I was in a hotel room. Very nice. If you got to be laid up in a hosp for 4 days it might has well be a nice one. I promise soon I will get caught up on the yacking. I need some healing time, just writing to tell you all I"M ALIVE. I have to heal quit I have my cancer walk Oct. 18th. I hope everyone is well and I promise to catch up soon.

Hugs, Sherry
