Hi Ladies....
Am trying to get myself out the door and do some cycling. May try skiing tomorrow. I want to snooze, but I know the problem is not enough good exercise recently. Hoping I don't get too wet, but at least not icy.
Hmmmmm.....is that the wind I hear outside?? O well.
Fun thing was that I talked to my friend who gave me the ballet ticket for my birthday. She is a dancer so knows the inside scoop. Was fun learning all that.
Anyway....off I go. At least my dinner tonight will be well-earned. Plus, I may even see some signs of spring. - Claire

AStorm and Wahine - I was wondering if I could beg, borrow, or steal some KILZ to touch up the canvass of my life - ha ha ha! Wouldn't that be nice to just white out some of the cruddy parts???
Here's to ya, as I snort my aerosol cheez whiz and guzzle more dog beers!

Beans, I loved your fighting felines but what on earth is that black creature? Too funny. Speaking of funny, just this morning, I was looking for bulbs for my night lights and saw the Kilz in my cabinet and thought of Wahine. I may go and paint myself and enjoy the fumes too.
I confess to snorting the fumes of white-out, that may explain alot about me. Cheers girls.

Beanie, love the fighting pussies as that wonderful saleslady on "Are you Being Served" always talks about.
Kathy, you are also going to take up stain glass painting? Hey is it just me or do Kathy and Clair have enough energy to power the USA? Wow!
Dorothy - really white out? That tiny little bottle is there really anything to smell?
I love that painting our the bad parts in life!!! Actually that would make a terrific ad campaigne for KiLZ. or how ever it is spelled..... I need about a cement mixer full, please!

You all are so funny! Beans, good idea about using KILZ to touch up the canvas of your life, and Dorothy to paint yourself with it! And now sending over a cement mixer full of Kilz for Stanzie! It really did work well and I have already covered it up with a new painting....I started this morning and am about 3/4 way through with it and it already looks better than the one we did in the "class". Go figure! Big prob at the townhouse though...thought I had the matching wall paint and went around spackling up all the nail holes (from my mom's gazillion paintings!) today. THEN after smoothing, went around and touched up the paint everywhere....and it DOESN'T match!!!! Sh!t!!!! I am going to dwown my sorrows at the fukitol fountain! Have no idea what I had before that matched, so will have to try to find a paint chip that matches and go from there. We were going to make sure the huge jacuzzi worked well, and found out the hot water heater is only working half way, so that needs replacing too. And I had taken towels over and bubble bath......aarrgghhhhhhhhhhhhh. Trying to get this all perfect to rent, but then our condo renter has not pd her rent yet, which was due on the 1st. Aarrgghhhhh again!!!
Stanzie, I love learning new things.....not that I really have the time or energy for it, but it does get my adrenaline going. I get the groupon and the livingsocial deals, and they are so good that I am signed up for lots of stuff right now! Dance lessons, horseback riding, etc. I can do the stained glass classes a bit later on. I think it is 4, 3-hr classes, and you do make something, but prob not too involved. I want to learn to etch glass too.....ahhhhhhh too much to do and too little time!
Speaking of time....it is THAT time again....Happy Hour! Seagrams/Diet Coke in my hand and now heading over to the casino and see if I can find Junie. HD where are you hiding???? Come out, come out,wherever you are! Hope everyone is doing good tonight......

Stanzie, white out smells so good, I just take one little sniff each time I use it. I did give it up when pregnant but have fallen off the wagon. I also love the smell of exhaust fumes in a car (except diesel, ewwww). I hope you are feeling better today. It just sucks about your friend, I would have wanted to slap her until her face looks like a slapped ass.
Wahine, Stanzie is right, you and Claire have so much energy, I wish I could find some. I napped for three hours today, had a tubby in my hot tub and now waiting for DH to get home from work. In the meantime, I will join Kathy at the casino.

Good evening, Loungettes! I just woke up from a very nice nap. Got up late after drugging myself into oblivion last night, only got up then (almost 8 am) because Sadie needed to go out.
Ran into town and visited with a friend in the hospital after emergency surgery. He's doing very well and will be going home tomorrow, a full day earlier than anticipated.
Dragged myself home, sat down with a blanket, Sadie and a book and that was it until about 5 pm. Woke up to a dark house.
Still tired, planning to hit the hay early. Plan for tomorrow is church, go check on my friend and take Sadie to the dog park, and get myself moving and outside for a while. When I visited my Mom recently I got her to dig out my Dad's snowshoes.
We've got ice covered crap right now, but more snow coming, so I'm hoping to learn to snowshoe so Sadie and I can go roaming around the woods in back of the house. Well, I'm getting sleeping again, going to head for bed pretty soon. Thanks for all the support, shoulders and crying towels, not to mention potent drinks and Pant's ministrations have been a huge help!
Time for one of these:
and some of this

White out, sharpies...mmmmm! Kathy, all you need to etch glass with is some good acid (HF)...come see me, I can help you out! LMAO and ROF! I will join you all for happy hour. Wow...Dorothy, hope she deserved that spankin! LOL! Or is that just what they call a "chapped a$$"?

NM, I am so glad to see you at the lounge and weally really veallly loved the pics you brought with you.
Kath, not a bitch slap, that was an fn bitch slap lol. Forgive my crudeness, I hope I do not offend anyone.
Praying for all you girls. And as promised, I am reposting a pic of the HTL Chapel. I can't find the pics were Lori reupholstered the p.u's I mean PEWS. For those of you who don't remember our chapel (too drunk) or those who are new, here it is. I also carry the same chapel in the truck of my car along with my nifty air compressor that hooks to my lighter. Life is good. God is good. Let's pray!
Before remodel. And the outside.
And the outside, after the remodel. And look, Pants' sister got married there but it was hush hush as they did not want the paparazzi flying over. I am going to head there now. DH is mad at me with good reason.
HD, Acid?? as in four-way blotter? Ok, I will take a trip with you. Good to see you. Off we go, I think I can fly, let's try!!
Cheerz, beers and get those tits up. Peace and love to my gals here. ♥ Rounds for eberyone!

Dorothy, I am laughing to hard to reply. I will let our dear Beans tell you about the HF acid. She is the real chemist on board. It's not what you think....darn!!!! Sounds fun though!
P.S. Is pants sister with child, and why is her new husband on the phone? HD

Wahine.....I can't believe the paint fiasco. Well, at least you will have good coverage!
I took both a nap and hot bath after my ride, so feel mellow and wonderful. Don't have to cook much for dinner either.
They put up the high wind warnings, so quite breezy out there. As in it's worse than when I was out there, and I had to hang onto my handlebars for dear life. I actually had to stop one time as just too much headwind. Much better upper body exercise than usual.
Perfect timing as didn't feel any rain drops until loading my bicycle, but quite rainy on the way back. Weather on the Puget Sound is almost Bryonic at the moment.
I didn't see anything unusual about the butt pic. Mine looks like that at least once a week when I am out in the cold weather.
Will do wine in a couple...... And I think watching some historic ballet performances on Youtube. - Claire

HD, Pants' sister is with child and their Dad is reallly mad, he is talking to Pant'es FIL and trying to keep the hitmen away. I am scared. I don't like this acid thing. Remind me not to do it again??
Claire, I just decided that you crazy. You are aDICKed to biking and could have been hurt out dere in those trade winds. I do want some of that energy and I think you could spare some. Gosh, had I known you were out there like that, I woulda send someone to make you face look like your smacked ass! You know I love ya!
Beans, do tell about your acid "trips". I am so curious. Ok, good night, off with dh to watch the movie Forty Year Old Virgin and later will make him pretend he is one lmao. I owe him cuz I been naughty. It is Jack's fault though.
Where are you other girls, partying without us, how ruuuuuuude!! Nighty night gals. HD, hope you come bock.

Hi ladies I see I missed the big party last night as you were all chatty but nothing tonight and here I am on my pink leapord bar stool crying in my rye and diet. I went out tonight with DH for an awards dinnerr for the fire chief in our town I walk into the hall and his wife comes up to me and says I'm so sorry how are you well damn damn damn here come the tears not what I wanted . I just wanted to go and have a normal night and some drinks and some fun and my stupid emotions wouldnt piss off for one night. I got miyself together and had some fun but sheeesh why cant I control things. My niece wants me to go out dancing with her tonight lol she is 27 and I am thinking no, just not into it I used to love going out dancing when did I get so old. I would rather stay at home and just have some drinks with DH. The wind here tonight is INSANE its gusting up to 120km an hour. The whole roof of the car wash in our little town blew off....the whole darn roof came right off took out some power lines and landed right in the middle of the road thank god no one was hurt but how crazy is that. The town I live in is only about 2000 people we are about 5 min away from Lethbridge 100,000 people so kind of have the best of both worlds living here. Ok well Im rambling now lol hope your all having a great night not thinking about BC for a night and that is the reason noone is in the lounge tonight. I think I am going to go have another drink and pretend too
Love to you all and {{{{HUG}}}} to anyone in need of one

Sorry you cried, maybe you should have gone out on the town with your niece, you are NOT old. I will come and get you, seems the tenders are all here giving massages and using cumcumbers on our breast friend's crying eyes. Oh, I see you now. Oh, sorry I was sitting on your stool last night and I hope that you dont mine that I am having a replica made for me. You will know mine from yours are I am having the letters JD, for jack/diet on my leopard cushion and I see your letters, RD for Rye n diet. Jocks, brings us someJD and a double of RD.

Chrissy - LOL, so that's what happened to the t.p.
Beanie - I LOVES DOSE KITTIES! I like the Kilz idea. If it comes in an aerosol that would be even better... or paint balls cuz sometimes I'd like to paint over things at a distance...
Bad day. I've been really busy all week - Thursday was a 14 hour workday and Friday was 12, then went out to dinner with DH and crashed as soon as I got home. Found out today that my neighbor (the one with recurrence) lost her battle this week. We weren't close but she left behind a family and it is just so sad. I tried to take a nap but DH woke me up to ask if it was ok if he went out with a friend. GRRRR. Now I'm awake and feeling awful. I surfed until I found the Sex in the City movie (1st one, not the stupid 2nd one) but I missed the shower scene. Sorry to be such a bummer. I feel like Debbie Downer.

Oh Gail. I am so sorry about your neighbor.
Dorothy....yes, I am addicted to exercise. I really feel like crap if I don't get enough. So I go out and do things like cycle in a gale to make sure I am OK. Have to admit, it was a trifle scary at times today. Fortunately, I didn't accept the invite from a group of cyclists to join them at Red Hook Brewery. I never would have made it back/or I would have needed a ride back and missed a third of my ride.
Hoping that there is finally snow in the mountains by tomorrow. If so, I am hitting the x-country trails.
Gave an old colleague of mine instructions on "how to milk V-day" via Facebook. Actually, I am thrilled that he is so happy in his second marriage.
Feel amazing after my ride, dinner, and some good red wine. Church in the AM. - Claire

Well hot damn all......my internet has given me a right pain for the last 36 hours but finally,.....yes I say finally, I think I've got it under controll once more! Now, who's in the lounge? Dotty, yes I see you half in and half out of the hammock in the corner, yup, Stanzie is here and Kymn oh and yes I think I see Beans just peaking around the corner of the bar..........Oh Beans!!!! did you fall down....again?........HD and Claire, are you in here? Astorm.......awh! sorry to hear about your neighbour..........are you feeling any better? can I give you a big gentle ((((HUG)))))? NM, have you got those guns lined up? Hope you got enough sleep to keep you going! Kathy.....awh! don't you just hate it when you think you've got things all tied up only to find that in trying to short cut you end up having to do more to fix the fix up......GRRRRR! I think we need a cheer up so lets try this DOTD.
Ingredients: 5 oz. Frozen Strawberries
1 Vanilla ice cream
1 oz. creme de cacao (dark)
1 oz. brandyDirections: blend ingredients until smooth, pour into stemmed glass, top with sweetened whipped cream and garnish with chocolate curls I call this the Strawberry Cheer UP!!!!! TITZ UP ALL!!!!!

Hi Chrissy,good evening, nice to see ya, how are ya doing? Is it any cooler down under? I hope it has cooled down for you. I am going to have your the Strawberry Cheer up, a shot and maybe eat the rest of the icecream right from the tub. Let's drink. xo
0 -
Hi ya Dotty! Yup, it's definately cooler down under......thank you very much! It's just grand! The rest of the week is supposed to be in the low to mid eighties which is just loverly especially when there is a gentle cool breeze with it...........sigh!.......This is my sort of weather. If no-one else joins us Dotty, we can have all the left over strawberries and ice cream to our selves! mmm....mmmm....mmmmmm! xo

Oh yummmmm.....that Strawberry Cheer Up is delish! Thanks for the recipe Chrissy and Pants made it up purrfectly! Think I will also saunter over to the Sunday Brunch Buffet and indulge in all the goodies, then hang around the mimosa fountain too. Happy Sunday everyone!
Gail,I am so sorry to hear about your neighbor losing the battle. That is so sad. That part of bc seems to get swept under the rug, as we mostly just hear about "breaking news" and tx and "cures". That is a sobering reality of the disease. I do hope her family is doing okay. What a rough work week you had!
Kymn, Gentle (((hugs))) for you....so sorry the tears just seem to have a life of their own. It will get better though. You are more at the beginning of this journey, and several of us are "on the other side" of dx and tx. I remember how emotional I was at first but then realized it was because I knew the PS I had was either going to kill me or leave me very deformed. When I got a PS I trusted, right b4 surgery, it made all the difference in the world. Even though I did the bilat mast and recon, mine was caught very early, so I decided to believe my drs who told me I wouldn't have a recurrence. Either that or I am in DeNile with Dorothy. Regardless, if it weren't for the HTL and you wonderful girlz, I prob wouldn't even be at bc.org anymore. It just feels to me like bc is in my past right now...and I am hoping that is correct! And also, you are much younger than I am and that makes a big difference too. For me the implants actually were an improvement...LOL. But don't be too hard on yourself; when you need to cry just let it come out. Others can just deal with it! It won't always be like this.
Oh shoot, I know I was going to respond to what everyone said, well that was my intent anyway. But when I start writing soooooo long then I forget what I was going to say. I do love all your posts and read them and sometimes laugh, smile, cry.....but by the time I am typing, I can't recall everything. Sheesh! Hoping for a nice Sunday for all! I did finish that painting last night (over the bad painting), and it turned out cute and whimsical. I like things I can finish quickly! I even framed it. Now to go out and look at new hot water heaters and try to find a paint match for the townhouse. Busy day, but weather is GAWGEOUS!!!!!
Hugs and Mugs (of beer),
Kathy

Have a great day girls

Kathy, I hope you are able to correct the paint color issue and get the hot water heater up and running. I reckon you are going to install it yourself? You go girl.
I am going to sneak out while DH is busy and try to find him something for V-day. He is not easy to buy for. He has been such an ace throughout my bc journey. He messages my girls, he has helped change drains, wrap me like a mummy and the biggie....he still finds me sexy despite the lack of nipples and with very ugly scars on my girls. He can be a pain but I just love him and want to show him my appreciation with a great yet inexpensive gift.
Chrissy,glad you weather has improved. We are going up to the 60's this week, yeeee haw, time to find my bikini. Well perhaps my open toe shoes. Speaking of, I have to buy knee-high stockings when I am out. Mine dry rotted on me and what a pain it is using rubber bands to keep them up. I keep forgetting to pick them up when I go out. Wanna join me in shopping, it is cool here and you will like the mall I am going to. Join me, we will camouflage our beers in sippy cups and no one will know.
Astorm, also sorry to hear about your neighbor's end to her battle. May God bless her family at this awful time. Cancer sucks, I mean really sucks. I hope you are able to take some time for yourself and relax today.
Well off I go, I like to beat the crowds, otherwise I feel like beating them to a pulp, I hate crowds. There are times when I hate people as remiinded when I got back to work.
To all, enjoy the day. Peace and comfort be with all you girls. You are the breastest friends a girl could ax for ♥

LMAO at your post Dorothy! Yeah, I would love to join you in shopping, with our sippy cups of beer.....that would be a riot! NO....I am not that talented, nor am I that strong....will have the new water heater installed. Soooo funny about the knee-hi's....yes I do hope you remember to buy some today!
Charge! CaChink!

Well, so much to catch up on now that my mind is cleared of the multiple drugs I took Friday and Saturday! I see I double posted a pic wthout ever realizing it, missed great pics before that, and all sorts of goings on!
The new computer came and I got just about what I paid for--nothing usefull. Gave up trying to get it to work, going to either dump it and get this old workhorses keyboard fixed up, upgrade some programs and go forward from here.
Friend of mine had emergency surgery Thursday morning for a bowel obstruction caused by scar tissue from a prior, botched stomach surgery, but he's gone home this am.
Love the DOTD, and, amazingly, I think i have everything on hand in the house to make one! Of course, I've got to stop eating everything I can find and get some water into me before I gain back everything I've worked so hard to lose the last few months.
Plan for today is to take Sadie out to the dog park for a good run around, stop and check on my friend as his wife can't get this evening off work to stay home with him, a long leisurely shower then check out the Cherry Mead I found at the Health Food store. If I like it I'm going to have to try to figure out how to make some.
Here's to a sunny day!

Good morning ladies, thank you kathy for your words of encouragment I know your right that this stage will subside and I definetly have more stronger days than not now and that is encouraging. I think once I meet my oncoligist and have all the information and get on the path i need to travel i will feel a bit more in control. Its almost too easy to pretend this isnt happening right now because I dont look or feel sick you know. Still have my lovely hair lol still have my boobs except for the scar on my right one I just look the same. I really really really dont want to go through this whaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Dorothy your chair looks beautiful Good thing you put those initials on it though cause I would be non too impressed if that cute baretender gave me a jack and diet what on earth is in that stuff lol. I love reading your posts you are too funny and it always puts a smile on my face.
the wind is still blowing here but not as bad as yesterday and most of the snow has now melted its actually above 0 whooo hooooo spring is on the way. during radiation are you allowed to sit in the sun or do you have to stay covered up?.
