Anyone watch Survivor? One of the tribes is called "Manono", which is my late aunts name, from Hawaii. We pronounce it MAH-NO-NO, but they pronounce it MAH-NA-NO....weird! ANYWAY learned a new word from one of the contestants, can't wait to use it, as my DH does this ALL the time, but not on purpose! The word of the day is.....neologisms. Now, lets all get steampigged!

Yay Beans, so happy for good news! Glad the weather didn't mess things up for ya!
Karen, will be thinking about you tomorrow and being small and quiet!
WaWa, what are you doing on Monday, can't remember...
Luv all the funny posts!
Mema, you ain't the only person to forget stuff like that. A friends DH had to go for blood work, didn't fast, actually had a huge breakfast at Denny's, well duh, his cholesterol numbers were
off the charts, doctors wanted to put him in the hospital, etc. Til they figured out he didn't fast... The joys of modern medicine!
Well, got caught up, but gonna try and sleep some! Cheers all.0 -
Morning babes. Congrats Beans, brilliant news. I'm a bit behind with all the news. Have brain fog at the moment.
My friend has gone back home now, all well.
Hi Wahine, hope you are enjoying the time with your parents.
Calva met the goats yesterday, she ran away.
Big hugs to all

Good morning, Loungettes! Woke up to a landscape covered in snow. But the sun is supposed to come out today, so it will all probably melt away and we'll go back to mud season again.Here's the view out my bedroom window:

DorKable--I had plans to plant a bunch of bulbs last fall but it never happened. I've got to do better this fall. Got to decide where I want them and get the ground prepped this summer. In short, I need a plan. If I have a plan I get things done. If not, things don't get done. I love seeing the early spring flowers popping up, got to get some out there for me to find next spring! I always have trouble adapting to the time change. I am such a creature of habit! Since I only have to get up at a certain time 2 or maybe 3 days a week I guess it really isn't a big problem, just annoying.
Mrs. Vino--watch out girlie, we're coming to get you! Gonna throw you into the pool!

Karen--I hear you about the pre-appointment anxiety. I've got an onc appointment next month and am starting to get anxious about that. Popcorn sounds good, but I put way too much butter and salt on it to be good for me! No excuse needed for a glass of wine in my book! Gonna see if I can find you on Facebook. Did you know you can post pics from Fb to the boards here? And of course we'll go with you tomorrow! Is the UFO all fueled up? And does it have a full tank of gas, too?

Wahine--sounds like an itinerary--Karen today, you Monday. Where else can weeeeeeeee go?

DorKable--What a cute widdle guy! Why can't we keep him in a bottle behind the bar? We can bring him out to fixes up any of our laptops or computers or to dunk in our dwinks!
Scuby--Modern medicine would like us to think it is so fool proof, yet we can totally mess them up with something as simple as drinking a cup of coffee or eating before a blood test. Not looking so God-like now, is Mr Modern Medicine?
Bernie--glad you had a good visit with your friend, and understand the brain fog thing. Have a cup of coffee or tea and use it as an excuse to have a quiet morning!

Princess Glitter Sizzle's DOTD is the Irsh Spring--Happy St. Paddy's Day!
1 oz Irish Whiskey
1/2 oz Peach Brandy
1 tsp Cherry
1 slice Orange
1 oz Orange Juice
1 oz Sweet and Sour MixDirections
Pour all ingredients (except orange slice and cherry) into a collins glass over ice cubes. Garnish with the slice of orange, add the cherry on top, and serve.0 -
What a neat St. Pat's day dwink, NM! The IRISH SPRING sounds ono! Usually we have Irish Coffee in the ayem, then green beer in the pee-em (food coloring). Cwacked da hail up reading "Is the UFO all fueled up? And does it have a full tank of gas, too? " LOL. Yuppers, gotta have our priorities in order....fill da UFO up wid da likker foist!!! That pic from your br is BEEUTIFUL!!! Such a pretty view to wake up to! Our tulips are blooming, as well as tulip trees, red bud trees......the daffodils and bradford pear trees are winding down and losing blossoms. Can't wait for the Cherry Trees to bloom...we have a nice one, plus downtown the spring is surrounded with Cherry Trees that were given to our city from Japan. I love spring!!!!
Scoobie, on MonKey Dey I have the steroid caudal epidural (in spine), so have to go to hospital and the whole nine yards. Should get a deep restful sleep during the procedure. At least its not soigury, and it SHOULD help my back immensely. What date to you go to the Caymans? I am woiking on 3 trips right now, and it gets SO funcusing!! As I work on the May and June trips, I am reminded of the one next week! AND need to get my clothes figured out. My DD found out they have large lockers at the Amsterdam airport, soooooo maybe I can take a regular carry-on and leave there while we "do" the city....otherwise I was going to try to practice using a backpack! Hope the weather is good that day so we can do the canal tour, etc.
Bernie....ohhhh nooooo, did the cutie patootie baby goats scare big Calva??? Soooo funny....I am taking it as Calva just ran away from THEM, but didn't totally run away. What a BIG baby!!! LOL.
Thirstey Thirst-Dey....gonna see if the Tenders have fixed enough of our Irish Spring DOTD's. Sounds yummmmmmmy!!!! Need some energy so I can get the house cleaned up to have parents over tonight....but have to help my dad with some garage stuff today, too.
Anyone wanna get "steampigged" wid mese??? Dwink up, drunks! LOL....hugsssssssssss,
K de D

Oooo, I can't wait to start on my white fat! Would that be the other "white" meat?
DorK, my daffies, hyacinths and grape hyacinths are already blooming here, and we are up for a storm Sun/Mon. Higher elevations to expect up 2' of snow and we are at an elevation that is up in the air. So we could get hammered, or we might only get 5" or 6".
Karen, are you expecting any of this weather? I see you had some cop porn, hope it was yummy like you wine. Foy shore, we shall all be there wif you at your onc appt. Praying for nuttin but good news today.
Dinka Dear, loved the Cowowado! Soytenly, we will be in Bama on Monday, but I vote we just have a full weekend blowout, for those that want to come and hang out early. I for one am up to it, NOT looking forward to the snow.
DorK, shame on you making fun of the Geekster, you SEE where Stella gets it from, yes? And poor Mole Boy and his ho sister.......LMAO!
Kathy, I watch Survivor, but haven't watched this weeks episode. But I can't not wait for that little stuck up flamer to go home. I am so sick of watching him roll his head and run his tongue around his lips.................Arrggghhhhh!
Oh dear Bernie, I can just picture that big ole puppy of yours, running from the baby goats. That had to be precious.
NM, sorrr...................y, but that white chit looks chitty and I am NOT looking forward to seeing more. But I may end up with a similar picture like the Daffy you posted! What yummy early morning, early Patty's Day dwink. Tank Ewe berry muchly! And look how healthy it is.
Beanie Baby, how long are you going to be on the coast? Sure hope you can hab a relaxing day, stress free day.
Stella, I'm beginning to wonder if you weren't just pulling our leg, about the tat. Wouldn't surprise me!
Got this from a friend, thought I would share. I thought it was funny.

I didn't drink during chemo becuase it didn't taste good... but back on chardonay! Fun to find this group!!! I too asked my ONC if it caused my cancer... he said no..... I find a good cosmo fun as well as sangria!
0 -
Back from my onc appt.... I do really like my onc...he listens and he hears what I have to say......He says I'm doing good....I brought up late/long term side effects of chemo and we talked about that..Told him that I'. way better than when on AI's but not back to the preBC me.....he said you've seen all the right people...only option would be to see neurologist...but everything will come out normal....I function...just not to the level before Dx....that is one reason I only work 3 days/week..also mentioned seeing sleep specialist...and he is in favor of doing whatever it takes to sleep...says that even trouble sleeping one night/week can affect functioning......talked about BHRT and he said you are NOT taking estrogen or progesterone...and I said I know that but we talked about DHEA, testosterone and DIM....he's not too crazy about DHEA as he says it can convert to estrogen.....he's okay wiht testosterone and DIM and estrogen cremes...he says its all about doses and with the estrogen cremes, 2 days/week won't affect estrogen levels but any more will....the BHRT doc I saw said every day for 2 weeks, then twice week.....We talked about sleep (or lack of), cognitive, memory etc.....Had a couple pimple type marks on prophy side that he noticed and then something on BC side that he thought might be a bruise and he took note of that, but was not overly concerned (and I snoticed in the shower this morning)...said let him know if it did not go away.....I do get the pimples every now and again...and I do scratch because there are days that I could just claw my skin out...Labs were drawn...if all is okay they get mailed to me...if a problem they call in a couple days....Onc again said if I want to give tamox or AI's a try again....and I said NOT at all....so he will con't to keep an eye on me every 6 months....Oh he also ordered a bone density as my last one was in Nov 2009....got in for tomorrow!!! So now its just wait for labs....a little nervous as last time one of tumor markers was up a bit (though still WNL)...first time that is ever happened...so hoping its back down to where it always is....this was the first vatiation in numbers....
Need to go work on tax stuff so DH can get started ...only have a month left till they are due!!!

Bernie, Calva and the goats are adorable!
Hello and welcome mlm. I don't think any of us that did chemo, drank during that time! It was hard enough to eat.....LOL. But hey, once chemo is done...........throw em back girl!
Karen, glad all went fairly well with your appt. Hoping for good news on your blood work as well. Do you really expect to be the same as you were before BC? I don't ever feel like I will be there again, at least not in this life time. So now I'm wondering.........how about the rest of you gals? Are my expectations too low?
0 -
Lori, will you post that on FB? I want to share it, too funny! And I also hope that idiot gets voted off Survivor, ASAP!!
Welcome mim445!
Congrats Karen on a good visit, know you were stressing about it! And glad you said NO to the AI's!!! Yeh you!! And I will go ahead and drink to good test results, cause dey is gonna be jus fine!!

Suwpwise!!! Lori in de house!!! Woo Hoo!
and to answer your question Mrs. Lori, there is a song they sing at church called "I will never be the same again." It is about being changed by knowing Christ, I know, but every time they sing it, I can't cause I cry, because I will never ever ever be the same again.

(swimming fast after Mrs. V, catching up to her, dragging her out of the pool and sitting her down at the bar for a BIG dwinky, of MY favorite Wild Turkey Honey)
Whoo, I needed a good dunking to cool me off! The patient rep I talked to a couple weeks ago about the ER doc's "damned cancer patients always overreacting" comment said she call me by March 5th. I have not gotten a call from her and it's 7 PM. I am not happy. At all. I just hope they don't think that I'm going to drop it and go away, because I am not. NM is now getting very, very angry, and I know people. Time to start doing things in writing.
Pants, can I have another big glass of anything potent? Put it on Mrs. Vino's tab. I'll be on a floaty in the pool.

NM, oh don't I know that you will not and should not let that SOB get away with that slanderous comment. He should lose his license simply because he lacks the number one thing a doctor needs to have and that is passion. And you go goil, round up yer own people and go git him. Here, Pants jest brought you a double Wild Toykey Honey and he bwought mese one too. *CLINK*, gulp gulp gulp. So, I lmao when I saw the pic you posted of the bwoken down UFO. what de f**k is wrong with AAA, dey need to step it up for the new generation of transportation. I tink wese can all sign a petition for dem to be required to soyvice UFO. Hail, yeah!
Hi Allie and Lori. So nice to see you goils here. Lori, I wish you could come and partay more at night. Ya see, I know dat we do not want to be in front of a computer at night cuz we do dat all dey long. So what I do is jest virtually put myself in de lounge and talk to you goils while portending mese not typing. So no more excuses. Dat goes for you too Allie. Ya see, I am being meanly tonight. Dat because mese mad at de assHoles in India that have been doing sum underwriting for us lately. I am going to miss a new construction purchase deal that was supposed to close tomorree because of de stepid people from India. Mese hates dem. And mese wants to tell dem off. But mese has to bite my tongue (fingers). So sawry dat I am taking out my frustrations on yese goils.
I am tinking of making a new rule about attendence at de lounge. If you wants to be a member, you has to be a regular. utterwise, yese jest a visitor. Sound good? WESE so tired of yese that come in and say dey be back tomorree den come back in 2.3 months. sawry, mese is being wickedest on dis thirst-dey. and dat IS, because mese thirsty and irritated. So mese comes home and hollar at me DD who is visitng while on spwing break. Den mese call DH and hollar at him. Den I come here and hollar at some of yese, I sawry. Speaking of, gotta find Katwinkalulu's comment where she used de S word. Den she deny it. Oh, I am not meself here but mese gonna find it and copy/paste her text. And dat is why? Because mese must be right, all de time. I am nebber ebber wrong. I am not DorK. I am Stellla hacking de Dork's page. She a biotch on dis day so mese locked her in de closet. She screaming to git out but mese has my ipod and dont hear a ting! hehehehehe!

LOL Dork, Yessssssss show me dat post I did, so mese will beweive youse! Excuse (see I kin use a diff'rent woid) the lg type, BUT I gotta type fast. We have severe thunderstorms, and just now the hail started...ohhhhhh it is hitting LOUD. Had my parents over for dinner, and had to take them home asap as soon as we were thru eating, as we got 2 phone calls about the severe storms being right over us, and the lightning was horrid. OH I hope de hail does not damage stuff but it is hitting de house HARD, and de thunder is LOUD.
Alli, I loved your posts and was gonna comment, but now I foiget.
Lori, For me, it wasn't bc as much as aging, the past 4 yrs, so I know I will never be like I was 4 yrs ago, but I was one of the "lucky" ones....just got butchered and had boobs taken out, but at least did not have to have chemo, and tx, etc. SO I don't really go back to the before bc days, but b4 the gaining weight and aging days!
Oops, better go and unplug the puter. You all stay safe. Talk to ya latah. Hugsssss, K

Kathy, I just went into de HTL chapel and said a special prayer for your safety. And I hope that you do not have any damage. I am going to switch over to internet explorer and find your post where you said you were sorry. That is because I jest know I am right. Ahhhh, to be perfect is gloriousness!!
Seriously though, pleeeeeese check in once the storm passes. Be safe. Lub you berry much, Kathy.

There are some very nice, kind and considerate people in this world!!!! I have a favorite and special Brighton bracelet that I wear everyday...but the clasp is known to come undone....well that happened today...except I didn't know I was missing it till I went to take it off at dinner......Talk about being majorly upset....so I try to retrace my steps....had been at Costco earlier in the day........well lo and behold the bracelet fell off put things in the car....I was in an end spot....Some kind person put my bracelet on the little island next to the parking spot....its missing 3 charms from the side that came undown, but the bracelet was there waiting for me....Thank you to the kind person who did this....
Goldie....yes, I do have hopes (or should I say I did) of being the person I was before BC....yes I know BC or any health challenge changes us, but I'm talking about functioning level....my onc was somewhat concerned and said most people get over chemo brain within 18 months, but he knows that I'm not most people!!!!! But I think I am still mouring the loss of me.....I had neuropsych testing done last spring and it was WNL....I knew it would be...but I still can't perform at the level I used to....I know that I'm 6 years older...but this has been going on since Dx.....I'm better than when on AI's.....to look at me, people say look at how much you can do and you do, but its not at the level I did before....and I'm only working 3 days/week....and one of the reasons I don't work full-time, is that I can't do it anymore....I'm 55 (going on 56 in 6 weeks or so) ....I should not be struggling like I do at this age!!!!
If you want to find me on fb, I go by my full name, but I have tight controls....so if you can't find me, let me know and I'll friend you.....Going to go take Mischa for a walk shortly....
