    NM, you're getting in lots of pool time this weekend! Here, have a Snickerdoodle with me. Then we'll share some Christmas Cheer! You gave me goose bumps when you told Dara to put lil Logan in her momma's arm and she will see magic. BE SURE AND HAVE A CAMERA READY DORK. Love the baby room. I think they all should have their own personal bounce house, where getting hurt is just NOT an option...totally safe!

    Morning goils, quick pop-in cause I'm going out for a run. Yep it's 50 degrees here so of course DH is golfing. I worked out yesterday for the first time since???? March maybe??? Lifted a few light weights and I'm not even sore. Feeling good. Boob almost completely closed up now, just 1 tiny little open area left. Got Nora's Xmas shopping all done yesterday without ever leaving the house. Found her some boots and snowpants which was no easy feat since she wears a size 3 shoe and snow boots don't start till size 5. Found these hoove looking things just for walking babies. Nora's mommy made her an extra large baby jail yesterday that included her room so she could get a few things done and when she peeked in on her she had crawled up in the baby swing and was just swinging back and forth laughing. She took a video...super cute!

    Nancy, don't worry, your energy will start to return. I finished rads 16 days ago and I'm really starting to feel like my old self. I'm not having that sluggish feeling in the afternoons anymore... Next week you'll notice the fog lifting. Pictures are great! Jackson is a doll.

    Dara, have fun with Logan.

    Lori, crossing my fingers. Good pics, your granddaughter is so cute and has such pretty hair!

    Julie, enjoy getting waited on.

    NM, love the new baby lounge, perfect for when I'm missing my girl and I get tired of watching the tenders bring me drinks. Have a good Sunday with Sadie.

    Cami, I hope you had a good Thanksgiving too!...

    Gotta go, love you girls!

    Good morning, Loungettes!Oh Dark Hundred and all is melting, and going to get colder as the day goes on, so says the weather guesser.At least the sun will be shining.

    Goldie--not getting to stay home until Jan?That seems like a long time, guess I'm just a homebody at heart.

    Oh boy that Snickerdoodle drink sounds YUMMY!!!!

    Sweet looking family!

    I always forgive getting bumped into the pool, gives me an excuse to visit the swim up bar, one of my fav places in here!

    Genny--So Nora has a deluxe baby jail, complete with swing, how cute!Personally, I think baby jails, when used properly, are a great thing.Baby is safe, Mom gets to cook or do things that require a certain amount of concentration to prevent disasters and injury (I'm thinking of burned dinners or burned hands and arms).And baby learns to amuse him or herself a little.I can just picture Nora swinging away!

    Morning, Julie!

    GG (Genny's Girl), you know we want to see the video of Nora playing on her swing! Glad you found her boots. My grand daughter does have beautiful hair, color is gorgeous and it's so soft. But most of the time it's hanging in her face and she looks like a rag-a-muffin.

    Good morning Julie, how are you feeling???

    NM, the pool is not bad at all, cuz the temp is just perfect for us. I'll meet ya at the swim up bar for more Snickerdoodles. Sounds like cold, wet and sunny. Have a good day at work.

    Well, not too many to respond to, ain't nobody around! Sad  Makes me sad. Well, today I get the call. Happy Monkey Day!

    Morning girls, quick pop-in, gotta get ready for work. Dogs are crazy11 DH took em to the park to run already but when they got home Moose decide it was time to play chase the cat...sounds like a herd of buffalo in here. I ran 5 miles yesterday, took me forever and I could hardly walk last night but I'm feeling ok today. Feels good to be coming back. It got up to 60, DH golfed 36 holes!

    NM, you are right, I sit in baby jail with her when Im there ad play with her, otherwise you are just chasing her around. I think I'm a homebody too, vacations are ok but unless i can take the pets I'm usually anxious to get home.

    Lori, I'll get that video up on my facebook page when I get a minute.

    Hi Nancy.

    Oh and a bit of bad news, Molly's 10 yr old goldendoodle was dx with terminal CA of the spleen. They removed a fist size tumor from her stomach and took the spleen last week and got the path report yesterday. Sweetheart of a dog and her DH's best friend. Damn FURB!

    Gotta run, maybe see ya all tonight.

    Shame on me for being MIA but been busy putting up some xmas decos.  And my cleaning lady has her 3 yoa doggie at the vet and might have to put her down today.  So she couldn't come clean for me.  I don't her not to worry and I'd say prayers to doggie heaven that Pookie comes thru.  So I had to do some straightening up around the house.

    Dara - funny u n Cyn wif da meatloaf...LOL.   I too love my DD's backyard and pool, wish I lived a little closer sometimes.

    Nancy - Finally got a time for my tx on Mon the 8, it's 10:15, which means I should be done like about 2pm.  When you kno when you're arriving let me kno.  Got most of my Scentsy.  2 warmers on B/O.  But tried one scent and jes love it, it lingers for a few days...amazing.  Wonderful pics of your family.

    Lowee - glad ur turkey and all the trimmings was delish.  The money cards go the older kids, 3 of em.  LOL no, boots just a gag gift.  Thanks for splaining the splints, cudn't wrap my mind around it.  DOTD was sounding good til I saw the sweet potatoes....can't imagine that being good...LOL.  Any word on your tests results?  And those are pretty good pics of you g'kids.  Can't always b bootiful for the candid shots.

    NM - Eggzackery - who wants all the stress this time of year.  I will have to hit a store here or in St George for my DH.  I drew his name and he is diff to shop for.  He gave me something I cud buy from ACE.  I bought and told him they were sold out.  He went and asked and they had plenty just not unpacked yet.  So he gets one and brings it home dangit.  Making him return the one I bought, serve him right, j/k just can't surprise him.  Love the idea of a nursery in the htl for all our babies. 

    Mary - No regrets ok, for not doing the race.  u did the turkey dash, am pwoud of Mary for doing that.  At 1st I cudn't understand the carpal then u mentioned being a hairdresser for 40 years...n yup, that cud definately be all or part of it.  Hope you find some relief.  I imagine sleeping with the splints not so comfy?  Cutie-patootie pic of Nora and story about the crawling up in the swing, so precious....waaa I want my Madison.  Sad Sad FURB about Molly's pooche.  How do you explain such things to kids...idk!

    Dara - glad you are there for your Logan.  These memories will live in your heart forever.  U cwack me up with your dreams LOL. 

    Hi Cami - how you doing lately?

    Lara - good to see you, still in tryptophan fog? 

    Hi Aly - sorry I missed cocktails last night.  boohiss on me!

    Good snowy, sleety ayem Loungettes!2 inches of sleet and snow, very yucky this ayem.Gonna sit tight here at home until the road is sanded, that's for sure.Sadie's already gone back to bed!

    Goldie--I wish the jacuzzi was on my deck this ayem, the sleet falling is so pretty sparkling in the porch light and street lights.Just a tad cold to stand out and watch, though.TM s in triple digits, yuck.Praying for clean scans.Love the Gorilla Fart!

    Julie--you snuck into my house and took a pic of Sadie!

    Oh, my Goodness.There is a business selling bullet proof plates to put in school children's back packs.Then the children are taught to put the back pack up in front of their face if there is a shooter in the school.What has this world come to?They also sell bullet proof plates to put in lap top cases and tablet cases.I mean, really.

    Mema--so sorry to hear about your cleaning lady's fur baby.Praying for a good outcome.Some people are just so hard to shop for, aren't they?

    Cammy--I pulled out my likker basket the other day and discovered that mostly I have empty bottles!Not sure why they didn't make it to the return for deposit pile before, but now I've got lots of room for restocking!

    Hello everyone sorry I have been out. I started back to work so I have stayed a little latter then I was supposed to too. I was bad. But I am so far behind. And I needed to get my office reorganized since I hadnt been there since July. It was a mess an I had to get rid of an RT right when I got back first thing. It was ugly.

    Mema I am so glad you like your Scentsy stuff. I have some things on back order too. Let me know if you have any problems. I believe your backorders should be in next week. My flight arrives in Vegas at 1035 on Monday and we are staying at the Luxor, My brother is going with me so we can both get our CEUs and I dont have to travel alone. Maybe we can meet for lunch or something. Let me know.

    Hi Genny, Lora, Lori, Julie, Nana Dora, PRN, NM, Cami, 4sew hope Im not forgeting anyone. I love you all!

    Oh a friend of mines mom just got diagnosed with tripple negative breast cancer they told her that it was stage one and that the tumor was small. Talked about doing a lumpy but they want to do chemo first. Why would they do that first if the tumor is small? Just wondering.

    Morning DahhhhLinks!!

    Sad to say the doggie, Pookie, didn't make it.  Vet said she had Addison's disease.  I looked it up, pretty scary. 

    Cami - thank you mese tinks mese soul is pretty cool too, only not as cool as yours! Meds can really mess ya up right?  I am proud of you for hanging in there even with the blur se.  I pray for you all the time...you and that precious Joey.  How's the practicing coming, his recital coming up soon?

    NM - It is frightening what we have to do to protect even our elementary children.  I can understand the metal detectors in high schools in certain areas, but how to protect our young without forever scarring or making them paranoid, I just don't kno.

    Nancy - Back to work, oh my, not too soon?  Physically and stress-wise you OK?  I got my b/o yesterday, was very busy but will open today.  I will pm you my cell so we can coordinate Monday. Woo Hoo, face time!   Sorry to hear about your friends mom but wish I could offer explanation on why chemo before, perhaps one of the other breasties could chime in?  Love the pics especially the wine glass, LOL, and cept not sure what they are....candle forms?

    Juliet - eat the chocolate AND rest, jes let it go!

    To all my other breasties....hope n pray you are all ok.

    Lubslubs to all!!

    Hi girls,

    I have been so busy with helping with Logan. I wish I could take the time and write my usual novel to you all. I have read and am praying for all of my girls.

    Lori, darling, I am sorry about the tumor markers. I had to google the term to understand more about it. You are always in my prayers girl. Keep on keeping on.

    Cam, sorry about the blurred vision. Maybe you can call your dr and report this side effect and he/she can find a better RX to replace the one causing the issues?

    I miss you all very much, have so much to say. Logan has been crying quite a bit over the past few days, my heart goes out to my DD. She is doing a fabulous job with him. She wants to do everything herself, I help when she lets me but usually helping with housework or caring for her puppy. She is rocking the mommy thing and I could not be more proud of her.

    Drink up girls, have some for me as mese been slacking in dat department.

    cheers and lots of love to all.

    Sin-saralee,

    Dara Diverse, friend, daughter, sister, Mom and Nana ♥

    k Work is kickin my butt, I worked until 2 today but then went and got my hair done and went shopping, I guess life is kicking my butt. I just have so much to do and now the lady that came and did the deep cleaning for me had some kind of life changing thing happen and cant clean anymore. So Im looking for someone again. I was so cold all day my fingers were even blue and then I got real hot and just exhausted and kinda started to freak out. Is that common with Tamoxifen? I was better after I layed down and relaxed but I was just on over load.

    Memaw Im looking forward to Monday :)

    Good Morning, Loungettes!Warming up today, so they say.Already 35 degrees, higher than yesterday ayem.Another winter storm over the weekend.Sigh.

    Collett--Going back to work can be a good thing, but it can be stressful, too.Sounds like your first days back were very busy!Hate the ugly stuff.Nice looking candies!

    Julie--taking it easy, believe me.The roads aren't bad right now.

    Mema--So sorry for Pookie and Pookie's Mom.At least with our pets we can end the discomfort and suffering.

    Dara--having a new baby is a busy time!

    Collett--pretty normal for someone overdoing too soon after rads.Remember, getting rads is like having surgery every day, it takes time to recover, and you are just getting to the point where recovery is starting.Give yourself a break and some time.

    Julie, how did you sneak into NM's house and get that picture of Sadie?

    LDB, sawry you cleaning lady couldn't  make it, but I'm sure things weren't too bad for ya, and I hope her fur baby will be ok. And you got some decos up. Booooo on no Maddy. Guess I didn't notice the sweet taters in da dwink eeder. Me no thinks I wuld like that. Oh darn, just saw that Pookie didn't make it. So sad and I'm so sorry.

    Oh Cami, I can't imagaine how awful it is to have blurred vision. Altho without me glasses, things are pretty blurry. Did they say it was a SE from one of your new meds? There must be other choices? Joey must be getting excited for Christmas. Yes, dat Suzi goil has a good soul and like she said, so do you. But I tinks we all do for dat matter!

    NM, bullet proof plates for our children? Indeed....what has this world come to? Glad your roads aren't too bad, but you always hang back until things clear up.

    Nancy, things sound to be going so good with your "hopefully" new soon to be DIL. I mean you are making candy and drinking wine together! How long have they been together? Sorry about the issues you are having, if they are related to the Tammy, there are other things that you can switch to. You must be one of those peeps that gets every imaginable SE there is....hugs to you.

    Nana? Is that going to be your name for Logan? So nice to hear how proud you are of your DD, but very sorry that Lil Logan is crying so much. I hope he is ok, and it settles soon. As a mom you feel so helpless if you can't calm your baby. We miss you too.

    Lala, traffic court? Wussup wif dat? Indeed it sounds like you have a lot on your plate dear. I wish you all the best and your friend too.

    Thanks all for being there for me. It just scares me so, and has me an emotional wreck. I just don't know how to deal with it. Hardest part, I don't hurt or anything. I wish I could put it in the back of my mind and be NORMAL!!! If I start to think about it at all, I start to cry.

    LDB, I am here in Vegas until Sunday, just don't know iffin I can find time to hook up wif ya, and I know you have to be out this way on Monday. I think we are gonna go ahead with this deal, so we may be out this way once a month. I'll catch you soon my pretty! And thanks to everyone's kind words about mese grand kids. I don't really feel like they are mine, mostly cuz we only see them once a year, and it's only for a couple of hours for only a couple of days. Happy HUMP Day! NOPE, it's THIRSTY THURSDAY!

    Dara - sounds like DD is doing a damn fine job.  And you Nana, are so incredible too.  That you help out when she needs it.  Y do you think Logan is crying so much lately?  When does he go to pediatrician?
    Nancy - c I thot tooo soon for you to go back to work.  You are going to be exhausted so try not to do other errands after work, jes go home and rest up.

    NM - We've had rain last 2 days, makes the air smell so nice.  Low's have been about 40o but we will get some freezing temps sometime this winter, am sure.  Too bad there are only 2 states, I think, that allow people to die at their will.  I know Oregon is one of them.  I have a DNR but heard recently that ER docs don't even check or if they do, they still try to keep ya alive. 

    Lara - you've got a plateful.  Sending prayers and BIG HUGZ to you and your friend. 

    Lowee - boohoo we can't connect this week.  But we'll for sure meet up ifin your deal goes through.  And I know how hard this tm thing is and wondering where it's at, if it's spread more, etc.  But I kno you are strong and  you will continue to push it to the back of your mind.  No good comes from the stress, so find things to occupy your mind.  And find LAUGHTER everyday!  We are here for you, don't ever forget that.  (((Lowee)))

    Gotta things to do....lubslubslubslubslubs, prayers and positive healing energy out for all my breasties!
