    First off, I had messaged with Kathy yesterday. The "runner" they found was 1mm x 20mm. And she may have to do rads, her kids are having a hard time with this happening again so soon. She says to send a big thank you (again) for all of our thoughts and prayers. She will be home tomorrow. Also, her other DD, had a 5 year old lab who dug it's way under the fence and was hit by a car and killed. On a better note, her Molly is doing better. So please continue to pray for her and her family.

    Cami, I am trying to keep calm. It is what it is and nothing I can do will change that, right? So I am looking for my big girl panties!

    Red, I am so sorry for the scare, but thank the good Lord that your DD is A-OK. We can drink to that! As for the menopause and hot flashes, mine was brought on by chemo, but you haven't had that, have you. You just got done with lumpectomy. Are you on any hormone blockers, that will surely do it! I have ended all treatments, most recently the Arimidex, and still have just as many hot flashes. So I say, get used to it! It's one of the lovely gifts from the RB. LOL about your eye and the stwaw. I NEVER wear long sleeves, if it's cold out, I wear a blazer or sweater, something that can easily be removed and then I pull out my fan that I keep in purse.

    Alyson, we knew you and Chrissy (and I think there were others) would hab a goot time. As for habin a party, is there a time when we DON'T party? Welcome home.

    Oh my Elizabeth Dahling, your DD getting her hair caught in the fan. I have got mine sucked in to a hair dryer before. I keep fans everywhere! The folding kind and electric ones. I even keep a folding one over at my neighbors. Electric fans, one next to my bed, one next to my chair in the living room and one on my desk for work.

    NM, you got that right about the pill for the pill for the pill! I forgot to mention in my message to you, that I recently got off the Arimidex and Lipitor. But I see my cholesterhol is elevated, so I started that back up. Didn't even look at my thyroid results, will do that later.

    I had messaged NM with my blood work results, and she answered me, so that is what I am referring to with her.

    LOL Julie........what bridge???

    ED, did you see the new chicken coop?

    Chickens are gits. The guinea fowl are worse. They do not lay in the winter due to the decreased amount of sunlight. At least the bloody cockerel does not go off at 4am.

    Chrissy Thanks for the pics---I love to see beautiful smiles on u'r beautiful faces--u all are great.

    Great pics gals, funny--and I bet there really isn't a bridge in that picture.

    Lori I'm so glad u talked to NM, we are so lucky to have our own medical team here and wonderfully good too.  ((Lori))) and u talked to Kt nd she'll be home? Crazy stuff going on and I'm sure she anxious to be home for her DD and the kids too. This is all FURB to me==U ladies all amaze me--nuff said.

    Now Chevy that DOTD is very healthy and maybe can help u'r UTI so get a straw and drink up. Oh u could leave the vodka out--no no that would be a sin.

    NM I'm glad u can relax a little today with a 2nd cup of coffee--and honestly that DOTD sounds great to me. I'm going to try that Beerita soon, of course I can just mix beer with the juice but I don't know the exact amount to make it taste right, plus it's easier, so I'm not going to start on my anti-b until I have it this weekend.

    Lara I'm watching Ghost Town right now.

    Oh I had my first call this morning before my coffee and I email the info with a little message that even if there's a mistake don't even tell me cuz I did it with no coffee.

    Oh Hot flashes when I was working and it snowed, I'd get a hot flash and go outside with no coat (those days I didn't catch thing easily) and put snow all over me--felt great Just a thought

    Good morning, Loungettes!I'm sitting here feeling sorry for myself 'cause I have to work today.Got an admission and 4 visits to do, so not a bad day, but I really, really wanted the whole weekend off, so now I feel selfish for being grumpy about working.Sigh.I'll keep reminding myself of the extra $$ I'm getting for vacay, and I'll get through it!


    Bridge?What bridge?Where bridge?No see bridge!


    Goldie--chitty news for Wahine's DD.And for Wahine.And about the DD's lab.At least Molly is doing better, that's a good thing.Don't get too bothered by the cholesterol numbers,recent research is showing that decreasing the cholesterol numbers don't make any difference to heart attack rates or survival.People with high cholesterol who exercise are better off than people with low cholesterol that don't exercise, they've found.


    Good Morning, Lord, it's me again.Please don't let me be grumpy with anyone at work today just 'cause I'm tired and wanted a day off.Help me remember I've got tomorrow off.Now, about Wahine's family:could You have a talk with their guardian angels?At least one of them seems to be dropping the ball, so to speak.More FURB for one DD.The other DD losing her furbaby.Please get Wahine home safely, no excitement, no drama.And thank You for Molly getting better!I really do appreciate that part, but why are You picking on Wahine's family?I'm asking You to stop picking on her family now, pretty please?With sugar on top?


    BBBBBernie--Seems a tad windy at Co. Donegal!I can't keep the birthdays straight, either.I figure if I can keep sort of straight on the names I'm doing good!Non-sleep phase, huh?Soundsvery not-fun.{{{bernie}}}}Um, I'm not sure I understand "gits", although I can tell form the context that it's not good!LOL, no sitter!


    Chrissy--Nice pic!So glad you are having fun!


    Cammy--I'm with you on the coffee!There is no morning, afternoon, or any time at all without coffee!BTW, I'm on cup #2 for this ayem.And I rarely wear a coat, I'd rather feel the cold than feel like I'm roasting in an oven!


    ORLA--hard functioning in the dopomax world?Sad to hear that, but is it helping the pain?


    RedRH--sounds like you had a couple of really great nurses, I'm a so glad!


    Cookie Sugarplum's DOTD is Grumpy Fixer


    2 oz Bourbon


    1 oz Lime Juice


    Cola


    Ginger Ale


    Directions


    Pack an old-fashioned glass with ice. Add old grand dad bourbon, lime juice and top with ginger ale. Serve with a sip stick, no garnish.

    Bernie, I often wonder if I will EVER get a full nights sleep. Some are better than others, but never a complete night without waking up. Your windy winters are my spring, although mid week we had wind at 30, with gusts at 50. LOL @ the bloody cockerel! I know you have a goat or goats, do you use their milk?

    Chrissy and Aly, you look most beautiful and so so happy! There is just something special about a breasties meet! I mean look at all of thoses smiles!

    cami, I have stepped outside during the winter, with a hot flash, but did not rub snow on me. I have also fogged up the windows in our truck, more than once. And YeS, Julie and NM are a blessing to us for sure.

    Lara, if you're not ready for work, why even apply? Especially if you are managing financially without working. What does your DH do?

    That was sweet of you Red to thank your nurses. I always found them so much more helpful during treatments, than the docs.

    Love it Julie (the elf). Here is the one Mrs Vino did, that I was telling about.

    Edited to add for Chrissy. See, bigger is better. Also see below!!!!

    Red, are you up to going back to work? I don't think you said, if you had drains or not. What do you do?

    Well shoot NM, for having to work. Can you turn it down? Altho I don't think you would, as you would put the patients before yourself. And good way to look at it with the OT and more spending money. On the Lipitor, I heard something on the news in regards to it and helping to BC away! So maybe being on it isn't such a bad thing. Sweet prayer for Kat and yourself. You know, with all that is happening with her family, I had forgotten how sick SHE was! And I hope she is feeling better. I think your Grumpy Fixer would work better without the lime, coke and ginger ale!!!

    Chrissy, more photos! LOVE the veiw you had from the Penthouse! I only wish you would take up the space and make them bigger, the bigger the picture, the more I can enjoy them. Talk about being selfish!!!

    Alright, what is up with everyone and why are you not here? I don't think i farted or offended anyone. Cami, did you fart? Altho farts would at least bring de Dorkster back. Kat is traveling today, and I know will want to be with her DD and Molly ASAP.

    You can find me by the pewl!

    Lori those elves are really full of mischief and of course everyone find the bad elves, that what we do. Who is tht lying whoa good butt--Oh well I can dream--Is u'r weather OK now? We are colder  winter tis the season.

    NM I like the DOTD'S name I wonder why--Of course u will work, but I'm sorry u'r scheduled to, OT will make u'r vaycay even better. And Thank you for u'r prayers, I say them alone too cuz they are perfect, I very seldom say a regulated prayer, I just talk my prayers, same thing, cuz there re too mny things to pray about.

    I can't believe Red u are going back to work alreay. Wow u'r something.

    OK shower time, takes me a while
