Happy Thanksgiving girls -

Hugs

Good evening everyone!
I just finished watching Dancing with the Stars. Love watching Marie Osmond and seeing her brother. It just reminds me of a time when the world seemed so much safer and kinder.
Cheri -- I'm sorry the onc rescheduled your appointment. I hate that you have to go all week now worrying and wondering about the lump. The strange thing is that if I find a lump, I usually go back to my breast surgeon.
Vickie -- what class are you taking? I don't remember you saying. I hope you are feeling better and I'm sorry about your daughter and the sadness she must be feeling. Just a few more days and you will be sitting by the pool or the beach together.
Gina -- how did Mr. Fluffy survive the new doo?
Cy -- you amaze me the way you keep working through chemo and surgery for port replacement and infections.
Tracey -- Happy Thanksgiving! Stay strong. I'm so happy to hear that you have found your perfect niche in the workforce. You really sound like you love your job now and such enthusiasm.
Nicki -- I don't seem to see much of you anymore. I guess you are busy with work.
Liz, BinVA, WildJan-- hello to you!
Amy -- are you going to post pics of the new pups Buck and Bonsai? I love your animal pictures.
Angel, Sherloc -- hi, hope you had a wonderful day.
Naniam -- please check in and let us know how you are doing. I know that its hard dealing with family sometimes and we are here to support you and you can vent to us when you need too.
Well, going to head to bed. Please continue to remember Ravencaine and her family in your prayers.
Hugs from A to Z.

Well that sucks, Cheri just handg in there I'm sure it's just scar tissue but I know it would be nice to get the docs opion on it over with.
Jazz good to see you!
Liz is it double crochect off the black around the squares? I want to get mine boardered and sent off to the gals.
Happy Thanksgiving to all tha Canadian gals!
No mail here today either as it's Columbus day.
Wasn't Brenda going to meet one of the other gals today? Hope they got to get together.
Can you gals on the East Coast send some of that warmth back to the West Coast. It's down right chilly out here!
There was a least some sunshine here today. Sure made it easier to go back to work were I could watch the sunshine instead of it rain. I guess I shouldn't complain, it's all that liquid sunshine that makes Washington the Evergreen State!

Hello Circle Family! I haven't read back beyond this page, so I have no idea what's happening around the Circle. I will read back and catch up though.
I hope everyone is ok and doing well and happy. I've been terribly busy and things are a bit more difficult to manage lately.
As I stated in my last post, I received my Lupron injection last week and my leg and hip hurt for a couple of days and I had the nausea and vomiting for two days and my hot flashes have returned with a vengence and the night sweats and I am so tired from it all I slept for hours on Saturday and to top it all off, I keep having bouts of anxiety attacks and crying.
Sunday was the worst, I started an argument with DH and we both ended up crying and it was a huge mess, I kept begging him not to leave me because I'm a little crazy right now and I know it's hard to put up with me, but if I didn't have him I would go nuts and let me tell you sisters and Peter, I am not this way, ever, ever - I felt like I was sitting outside myself watching some pathetic creature laying prone on the floor in a puddle of tears and snot beseeching this man to stay - I swear I wrote this scenario in a short story when I was in school, LOL - but guess what, it was me and I am ok now, at least for this time right now, we will see how the next hour goes.
I did call the dr. and asked why wasn't the effexor working and he said because I just started taking it and it takes a bit to build up and since I've a had a sudden drop in my estrogen level, things are going to take a while to catch up to each other and it may be a couple of weeks, but to hang in there. I said "o.k." hung up the phone a cried.
I told my boss what was happening and she is so cool, she said do what you have to do, take breaks, walk around, I always get my work done and then some, so no worries there. But man, oh man, let me tell you, THIS FLIPPING SUCKS!
There's nothing like losing your mind while folks watch and point, LOL!!
This too shall pass, right?
Hugs and more hugs to you all. I think about you all and I say to myself, damn, the things we have to go through how lucky we are that we have our Circle.

Amy, that's sad about Sedgysmom; I'll have to go read.
Bren, now pushing the window button - that sounds like something I would do! I have to be careful about what I wish for, like not working. Many years ago for my 40th birthday, I wanted a boob job and a tummy tuck - well, I got them, all right, just for my 50th birthday. Oh well, I wouldn't have met my friends here if I hadn't got that wish.
Tracey, hope you had a nice thanksgiving.
Shel, did you celebrate thanksgiving too?
Cheryl, first day back and you already put in OT?
Jas, I like DWTS too.
The onc rescheduled Cheri's appt?
It's beautiful outside right now but rain is supposed to be here tomorrow night.
Everyone sleep well.
Margaret

Nickie - I opened up this page and saw your post. Oh no, not another bc sister. I didn't know Sedgymom but I can't bare to hear of anyone else dying.
Wishing everyone a peaceful night and God's
Love and hugs,

Yep anytime I'm gone I wind up doing OT to try a fix the things that someone else tried to do. Just wish some people would look at the notes I give them and follow them it would all be so much easier.
Z hang in there anytime you start a med it take time for it to get into your system.
I started my day off in the clinic getting my INR checked hoping to get off the Lovenox shots again. Got the call back they are up high enough so no more shots again! Yipee!
Think I'm going to go rest and crochet for a while

Hi Cy,
I'm the "other" Brenda in VA that was going to meet Brenda in NC for lunch after her doctors appt today. Something came up on my end and I couldn't get down to NC today. BUT, the good news is, I'll be down in her area in another week or two and we're going to get together then. I can't wait!
I met another gal from BCO in August, who is from northern VA, and was vacationing about half an hour from where I live. We've become great friends. I'm so blessed to have met her.
It will be wonderful to meet a Circle Girl in person.
Brenda in VA

Oh that is so sad about Sedgymom! She is a tripleneg girl from Australia.
This is one tough month for our sisters isn't it????
Tracey- I am glad to see you! You made me hungry, I wish I could go down to my kitchen and have some thanksgiving leftovers myself right now! Happy Thanksgiving!Happy Thanksgiving to you too Shel!
Z, I am so sorry you are having it so rough. My sis had to go on Lupron for fibroids and it was miserable.
Cy you better be taking care of yourself!!!
Mr. Fluffy is not fluffy anymore. He really got a close shave. She went OVERBOARD with him! I feel like I need to buy him a sweater. He must be freezing- even if it is hot as blazes out today.
he looks so skinny too!
Well, our hair can grow in together!!!
((hugs to all)))

zazzette ............ my ovaries just refuse to shut down ......... i'm on tamox and 'lupron' (aka zoladex) ........... but labs come back as menopausal ...... WTF????? i get a heavy period about every 2 weeks, between times i have hotflashes that could fry an egg, i'm emotional, i'm moody, i'm unsure of myself, my memory is shot to hell, i have insomnia, i have horrible nightmares, then i just bawl like a moron, i avoid intelligent conversations because i feel stupid (which i know i'm not), i'm bloated and just gross then the next week i'm dehydrated and 'svelt', i barely function as a logical human being half the time but i pull it off pretty well at work (lotsa effort somedays)...till i hop in my jeep and cry all the way home after work ......... NEVER EVER EVER have i ever shyed away from anything related to my job, while i'm still confident in my competency, i routinely find myself needing to 'regroup' before i forge ahead because i doubt myself (often unfairly) ............ oh and the irrational behaviours with your man????????? well girl i've been doing it forever! (in reverse lol)
makes me and my onc and my internal medicine guys totally convinced that all my hormonal, girly parts need to go AND FAST!!!!!!! i've had numerous docs comment that my ovaries are completely out of control and have been for decades (gotta love estrogen) my labs horrify my docs ......... apparently i have ovaries from hell! THEY (my ovaries) REFUSE TO GIVE UP! man i can't wait to be free of the buggers .......... i'm so tired of being me lol!
even if i become some 'flat affect' shell of a woman i'll be happier than this raging, unpredictable weak emotional person that i've despised for most of my adult life .......... i'm betting "earl" will be relieved too lol .......... although i can't help thinking if he'd spent 20 minutes on his precious internet researching something other than motorcycles or airplanes he might have a friggin clue lol! that is a whole separate entity that i've moved on from .......... no more wonderin, just over and done with "yay me"
either way ............. doesn't matter, i just know i can't really truly live as a single mom/career woman with this hormonal BS much longer ............ it is taking it's toll on my physical and mental health daily.
oh lord .......... what an awful rant ........... i'm at an awful crossroad right now and i'm sorry to subject you guys to this, but NOBODY i know gets it, nor have any of them tried to get a handle on the "whole' picture through this whole process ........... at least my mom buys every pink ribbon trinket in sight to compensate (but won't talk about it) ........... everybody else is just WAY tired of me (aka 'it's over, you have hair) .......... but that's ok, as i get to know myself and my illness i get pretty tired of them too lol!
thanks for listening (or ignoring) ........... obviously i had some baggage and there just isn't anybody else ......... one more 'box' unpacked tonight ..........thank gosh i seldom post eh?

Evening friends. Hope everyone had a grand day. Mine was busier than usual. Daughter wrecked her van today. No one hurt but the van is totaled. Not a good thing when you have 4 kidlets to transport. Hope it doesn't take to long to fix.
Hubby and I went to see 3:10 to Yuma tonight. Excellent movie.
Was hoping to see an update from Cheri. Where is that girl?
Bren, glad Tim made it home safe and sound.
Amy, how did the puppies do at the vets?
sleep well Nicki
Hey Tracey, good to see you. Happy Thanksgiving
And to you Shel
falling asleep on the keys. I'll catch up tomorrow. Hi and sweet dreams to all.

What in the world is happening to this thread? Last post was 7 hours ago???
What is going on??????????????????????
0 -
Z, hugs to you. Take it one day at a time.
G, I'm having a hard time reading about another sister losing her battle. It's a good thing you are having a heat wave or the former Mr. Fluffy would be mighty unhappy now.
Shel, hugs to you too. I can't imagine what the hormonal issues are like.
Marsha, I was just going to ask about Cheri. Any idea why she was banned?

Well good morning ladies
i want to explain my post yesterday. The plans are to move but it is going to take a while and the longer i stay here the chances of me getting worse are great. so i thought maybe i could vacation with someone around augusta ga incase i needed to go to my doctor wh o is there.

Thanks for the update Marsha. Sign me,,confused!0

Banned???? what the heck for? Amy I'm joining you in the confused tent. Cheri has never been anything but supportive and helpful on these boards. This is ridiculous.

Good morning campers! Wow, hard to believe its the middle of October already. Summer seems to be hanging on in these parts. We're still in the upper 80's to low 90's.
I'm keeping good wishes and happy thoughts for those with appointments today.
Have a wonderful day.

What?? Cheri got banned??? What the heck for? I'm trying hard to remember what on earth could have prompted that and I cannot think of anything she even did wrong! Cheri has been THE most loyal person on this thread who didn't jump ship while the changeover was taking place. This is how her loyalty is repaid? I don't get it. I'm going to go ponder this. BBL to catch up ... maybe after Cheri is back. If she even wants to come back now. Sigh, I'm going into the confused tent with the others.
Hi Jasmine and everyone else.

HUH? I'm joining the other girls in the confused tent.
Tracey - was that a yes or a no?
Morning all - it started off cool here but is going to be in the 80's later. I've been for my walk, knocked my head off on the garage door (yes I ducked - just not enough) and now I'm sitting here with a glass of water and catching up with my friends.

Oh another thing. I don't know about anyone else but I don't appreciate being asked for money in this thread. Especially after hearing Cheri is gone and part of the request for money states and I quote "But, your support, both financial and by being here, is incredibly valued by us. We couldn't be here without your help.".
I guess that doesn't apply to Cheri.

off to the doctor see you later

Angel,I am with you and Liz in the confused tent today.
Liz...sorry abt your head cause I know that hurts.
I remember sedgymum and reading her posts;so sorry to read that today.
Wow, so quiet here--I have been away and there seems to be less people here. I think that I have caught up and wish everyone a good afternoon.

I got my port out yesterday, everything went well - yipeee. I must have still been a bit dosey last night though, because apparently I was in the chat room last night, but I cannot remember being there LOL.
Hope everyone from A-Z is doing well.
Hugs to all
