    Oh and hey, today was DonnaKF's bi-lat MRI. Some of us know they are no fun and at the least, emotionally draining. Well wishes and only good results!

    Well, cheers to Donna then! It's scotch for me tonight as I worked the late shift and Avery is staying at my aunt's house and that means I can drown my sorrows...

    On an up note, I have a job interview Tuesday afternoon (I SO frickin' hope I get it as it's "normal" hours), and another job I applied for might still be open and I'll find out more about that one on Tuesday, too. Karma - I only hope what I'm putting out comes back to me positively! All I want is a decent paying 9-5, M-F job! Why are they so hard to come by?

    Again, cheers to all you lovely ladies!

    Yep, had the MRI yesterday. Spent over an hour in the tube. (it was my first MRI).

    Won't know anything for a couple of days, but I appreciate the well wishes, and I really expect it to indicate NED.

    Janis - like I mentioned before, I've never stained anything other than clothing, so I need all the tips I can get! Anything else you'd like to share is appreciated, and maybe you DO need to get your butt down here with a paintbrush!

    Hope everyone has a great day! I'll keep you ABREAST on my MRI results. (couldn't resist)

    Cheers,
    Donna

    Janis, Praying that you get a great job offer. It's so nice to have regular hours when you have a little one at home. Bet she's growing in leaps and bounds!

    UGH! Snow again!!!!! Luckily, my commute to work today didn't take too much longer than normal as I go against the flow most of the way. For most, though, traffic this morning was a nightmare. We were told rain, not snow!

    Anyway, I'm enjoying some wine as Avery crashed out early this evening. My aunt (a two time BC survivor, and she had thyroid cancer, too!) sent some cute summer outfits and I started bawling because my aunt really doesn't have any extra money and she sent things anyway! I feel so blessed that I have Avery in my life and that she's so damn adorable! I guess good thing DO come to those who wait.

    My mom is currently in PHX visiting said aunt and totally enjoying the weather out there. I must say it's very tempting to just pick up and move to a warmer climate. If I don't get a new, better paying, job soon I just might do that!

    Cheers! Here's to Spring returning - very soon!

    Donna, unless you're having better weather there than here I'm staying here. But, if I ever get a normal job with normal hours and paid Monday holidays I'll certainly drive out there for a long weekend! How fun!!!

    Janis- I'll be in Chicago 4/20-22 the snow best be gone by then. I froze last yr at the Cards/Cubs game and hoping to look a lil cuter this yr.
    BTW- what is is normal job or work hrs, I have never, since I've been 12, had weekends off. I guess that what sucks about your family being in the restaurant biz!
    Donna- left you a VM, call when you can.
    MB, check is coming this week. I wish it was at least July!
    Vickie- I am sure hoping you are on the Pinkstock list, bring Nathan, we'd have a great time.
    Amy and CY are either of you going to PS in Aug?

    Hey sistas ~

    My MRI indicates NED in either breast! WooHoo! I didn't actually think it would show anything (I didn't have the gut feeling of dread like I did when originally dx).

    Now I can relax and know that my last 2 mammos, which both indicated increases in microcalcs, but labeled "probably benign" actually ARE benign.

    Now I don't have to dread Friday the 13th!

    And on that news, I'd like to buy a round of drinks for everyone!!

    Cheers,
    Donna

    What we drink...
    In a number of carefully controlled trials,
    scientists have demonstrated
    that if we drink 1 liter of water each day, at the
    end of the year we would
    have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli
    (E. coli) bacteria found
    in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo
    of Poop.

    However, we do not run that risk when drinking
    wine (or rum, whiskey,
    beer or other liquor) because alcohol has to go
    through a purification
    process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting.

    Remember:
    Water = Poop
    Wine = Health

    Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk
    stupid, than to drink
    water and be full of shit.

    There's no need to thank me for this valuable
    information; I'm doing it
    as a public service.
