how about drinking?

Jules, sorry about the nausea...hope that is just temporary. But you look like you are enjoying "working" with Pants and Jocks..lol. Far as I know, no one going naked down our slide....but then again I can't monitor it ALL the time...what happens at HTL stays at HTL!!!
Junie I wonder if they have that yeungling(sp?) beer at the Tunica casinos? DH was ecstatic that they had Guinness in Vegas....free other than tipping the waitress. Can't beat that! Of course, one thing nice at OUR lounge is that our drinks are always free, and Pants and Jocks can't accept tips...how neat is that! Anyway, I know they will have lots of cold ML for you,and many other things. I wish Hollywood had kept that cappuccino machine they had on the casino floor (for free)...at least they still have the free coke dispenser. Sometimes you just want something to drink without waiting for a waitress.
Good morning everyone! Pants and Jocks have set out Bloody Marys and Mimosas....plenty for all!

Good Morning,
That is one welcome Mimosa. Thanks Guys, and thank you Kathy.
Thinking of you Hunky. I hope that you are starting to come back with us. We are so thinking of you, praying for you, talking to you and hoping for you. Hit that morphine pump once for us will you, it'll be a little while until the next beer. You are so brave. I've had so much of the other stuff going on that I elected to stay flat. It is kind of convenient. (Don't worry, I won't abandon all the clothes to come down the slide naked although no gurantees on the bottoms once I hit the pool.)
Real nice to meet you Jules. This is the best place that there is to visit away from home. These ladies are the best in the world, I am always amazed at the gracious welcome that I receive.
CAZ, Cooper and I have been working very hard on our communications on the ground. He is so happy to have his Mommy with him. I have friends with an indoor near by that I can ship to which is very helpful because I can get on and we can walk and circle, do laterals, etc. Then the off days we can play our games at home. Right now I am selfishly allowing my pain levels to dictatae how much that we do day to day.
Oh Lori what a beautiful dress and a beautiful ring. I have to sympathise. I'd gotten my weight all the way down to 132 and then had chemo on Thursday. Within 5 days I'd gained 2 lbs. from the awful decadron, aranesp, aredia and Doxil. I don't lose any hair from the Doxil. BC I had long beautiful hair that disappeared 17 days after my first Taxotere.. When we went to oral meds 8 mths later it grew back all nice and thick. We colored it and let her grow. 2 yrs later= more chemo and there goes the hair. I now keep it as short as I can in field mouse brown shot with grey. It's easy to care for and not that bad to look at- I miss the hair of my teens but guess that we can't be that way forever.
Thanks Ladies for giving me so many laughs and so much hope. I'd better have another Mimosa, I'm getting too serious here.

Welcome Jules, to the most wonderful lounge in the world! Too bad you are feeling icky tho. Hope you feeling well real soon. I posted the link of our Hot Tatties Lounge below, Jock and Pants included!
Carol, I too was one that never spent alot on hair or make up. My hair was down to the middle of my back, wavy and strawberry/golden blonde. And now it is just so curly, and at a very weird stage, about 4" long, and tight tight curls. I absolutely hate it. I hate the way I look period. So, I thought this make over thing might help me feel better about myself. At the very least, I am looking forward to getting it highlighted. I don't want to color it, cuz I don't want to deal with roots. I did not know about Rolfs, other than seeing on channel 3 news in the mornings on Monday. I didn't know where to go, so I chose them. Plus I want to look nice for my wedding in Oct. Hope you had fun at the brewpub!
Kathy, thanks for the drinks. I'll have the mimosa, could you have Pants bring it out to the Banana Hammock for me please. You're a doll, thanks.
I can hardly wait for Hunky to feel better, I am sure she will be putting someone on that slide! I just hope it's not me!
We miss you Hunky, and hope you are doing well. Gentle hugs!

Jules, are you still doing chemo? Is that what is making you nauseous? Do they give you Amend to take for 3 days? Did you get a chance to check out the link of HTL and see out Tattie Tenders?
Hey Kathy, I see you lurking around!

Hi Lori, I just can't get enough mimosas this morning (j/k)! Jules, check out the link Lori added (4 posts up)....she put all our pics in one place...now you can see this shangrila we created (it was a joint effort to come up with ideas!). Hope this link will stay here so we can check it out when needed. Well, got to go babysit the grandkids!
Cheers everyone,
Kathy

Jules, you got it right! And, "HTL" stands for our "Hot Tatties Lounge". Hope the new meds will help....and soon....can't have wine withdrawals on top of everything else. Take the meds, and then relax at HTL and get totally spoiled by "our guys"!

Sending hugs to HunkyD hoping she can check in with us soon--in the meantime, I'll be happy to drink her share of drinks!!
Wahine--we'll just have to ask for that beer that I can't pronounce, let alone spell!!!
Jules--welcome!!!! Ahhhhh. Jamaica, mon! Was that the Buffet's bar in Montego Bay? We drove by a couple of times but didn't stop--I'll have to tell hubby what he missed! We stayed at a resort between Montego Bay and Negril this past Feb. Did go to Rick's Cafe in Negril--first time I'd ever seen tables and chairs in a swimming pool! No nudies there--too many family groups! We loved Jamaica and plan to return.
Big hugggsssss to all!!!

I want to go back but not on a cruise.. I want to stay in Jamaica the whole time..I'm not bringing the drinks around tonight...too busy having one for myself....here, I will pass them around...ENJOY LADIES!!!....jules

Jules, so glad you are enjoying the lounge, we sure do! It is a great place to escape to. If you have anything to ad to our lounge, Pants & Jocks are real good at getting things done, and the builders are "oh so fast". Our most recent addition was a little casino/gambling area, and get this, atm machine with unlimited "free" monies! Glad the boys spoiled you and that you are feeling better too! Don't work too hard!
Kathy, hope you are having fun with the grand babies. I only get to see mine a couple times a year, they live in CA. Anyways, about the link to HTL, you can copy and save it somewhere to have, or.....we could start a new thread, and have it up in the topic, with a note here to go to the new thread. Maybe title it "how about drinking 2". Thoughts ladies?
Junie, you must share with everyone now, not nice to be stingy ya know! JK. (sp stingy, doesn't look right. Could someone please help my chemo fried brain). As for asking for "the beer I can't pronounce", how do think I felt when I ordered my "Duck Farts"!
Hunky, we miss you, hope you are doing ok.
Maybe just a quick hello so we know all is good. Bellying up to the pool bar and stealing a drink from Junie!
Luv ya girls
Lori

I think Jock and Pants were busy all night, decorating HTL for junie's BIRTHDAY PARTY! Happy Birthday junie!!! Boy, they did a great job. Everything looks so festive, and all the tables laid out with all that yummy food (and they said they took out all the calories!)...and drinks all set up at the bar. Just have to come in and grab one (the drinks ladies, the drinks...lol). There sure are lots of buckets filled with ice and Miller Lites. Oh,oh...is that a huge birthday cake I see by the pool??? Looks big enough for one of the guys to jump out of (hmmm....) ...oh I can tell this will be a FUN party! Come on everyone...let's party!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUNIE! 0 -
I don't see anyone....is everyone hiding behind palm trees, cabanas, etc. in order to jump out and yell "Surprise" when junie shows up? Oops Lori, you need to find a better hiding place....I just saw you peeking out from beneath the drink table.....PARTY TIME!!!

Girls, I'm alive. Wow, what a surgery. I love birthday parties. I am not out ot the hospital yet but can almost see the waterslides and birthday cakes now. More later....HunkyD
0 -
Oh HunkyD, Thanks soooo much for letting us know you are okay!!! I can only imagine how rough that surgery is, so please take it really, really slow for awhile. Don't even try to make it to junie's birthday party...we will be thinking of you, and might even print out a large pic of your avatar to pretend you are there too! Let your DH (and anyone else that offers) just spoil you totally...you will need lots of help for awhile. Best wishes for a very smooth recovery, and join us back at the bar when you are able to. Meanwhile, we will just have to take up the slack and drink for you!
Hugs,
Kathy

Hunky: welcome back, girl. I hope you are home soon.
Junie: Happy Birthday!! I'll join you for a toast as Pants and Jocks hoist you on their shoulders and parade you around the pool. Be careful, those shoulders look slippery.
Lori: I bet your hair is gorgeous, but just different than you are used to. I'm so excited for you. A wedding in Hawaii must be a dream. Keep us posted.
Stormy: I would imagine Cooper is as excited to have you around again as you are to be back in the saddle. Riding a good horse is the closest thing to sprouting wings as you can get.
Jules: I'll join you in that glass of wine. I've been crazy for Italian white wines as the weather gets hot. I'm glad your nausea is under control. Birthday cake for all.

Guess I better find a new hiding spot before Junie gets here. Decorations are fabulous, Junie will love it!
As Pants & Jocks jumps out of that huge, "calorie free", cake, we all raise our glasses and shout. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY JUNIE"
Ok Jules, you can get tipsy now!
Caz, my hair in not gorgeous in my eyes, but it is hair! Wedding is in Oct, so little ways away.
Ooops, there goes Junie and the boys in the pool!
Jumping in with them.
Hunky, So So So glad to see you. Hurry and can't get well, we miss you so much. But yes, take it slow and easy girl.

OMG- I am so glad to see this thread alive and well. You guys rock!
Long time since I've been here, but Casinogirl and I are thinking and trying to make plans for pinkstock 09- we met and have been traveling buds since pinksock 07- Anybody here thinking about going. I am sorry I missed it last year.
You make some close friends that know exactly "what you mean" The more drinkers, the merrier. Nothing like sitting around a campfire, singing and drinking.
Only about a month to decide, but we are trying to make it happen again.
