TIME TO CIRCLE THE WAGONS GIRLS
Comments

Good Morning Everyone: No snow, but Winter has arrived in this end of the circle. Im near the campfire, but Im in my wigwam this morning. Its much warmer here. I peaking out right now and looking at the Forest which surrounds us. The trees are naked. The leaves are gone. Its a cloudy, cold day.
Im in a much better mood this morning. Have a wee bit of a headache - now it couldnt be the wine I had last night could it?
Week-ends here in the circle are quiet. Seems like we all are off, busy doing this or doing that. Today, Im staying home and will be working on making Christmas presents. Im not as crabby today - thak goodness. I have aleady called the pharmacy and Im picking up my Lexapro at 9am!!
Laura: Is your biopsy Monday? What time. Your hospital is gonna be so surprised when they see all the ladies from the wagon circle there to support you. So just remember - if you get scared - we are just a thought away.
DebC: Saw the recipe for the cookies, they sounds great. I told my husband I thought maybe the 2 of us could make Ginger Bread cookies. Design them and give them as gifts. Are Ginger Bread cookies hard to make?
Too early for me to think about breakfast. Just gonna sit here near the campfire and enjoy my coffee. Will be looking for the sound of leaves crackling - that will tell me when some of you are waking up. So many leaves on the ground its a carpet of beauty. But even bare foot - you will hear the crackling sound.

Hey it's winter here too! LOL My biopsy is Monday at 11:00. I wish I would have thought to ask if my surgeon, Dr. Witkowski could have done it. I guess a Radiologist will do it.

Good Morning Girls. It's chilly here on the western front this morning.
Colleen, hope your walk with Jake was grand.
Lynn, Have a great weekend with your kids.
Susan, Yehaw!!!! I say lose the ovaries if you aren't going to have more kids. Those suckers create way to many problems. It's an easy surgery. Just make a cushy pillow your friend for several days.
Can I have a star?
Vicki, Holiday? I didn't get no stinkin holiday!
Hi Karen
NS, hugs to you hon. I hate it when they say they don't know. I hate it more when they say "Wait". You can have my share of the ice cream tonight.
Great pic Laura
Lisa, they should be....$53 GEESH
Nicki, hugs to you too. My uneducated guess would be a carb high.
As for the tests. I don't know the "normal" Not on the lab sheets. They are bone markers for osteoporosis. Doc will just watch the trends. Baseline was 6 months ago, second round was last week. So here goes. I would greatly appreciate and love you forever if you could tell me what the #'s mean.
According to originals done last april all 3 are low...but they didn't put in range so I don't know what that means.
from April
Bone Specific Alkaline Phosphatase (BSAP) 19
Urine N-Telopeptide (NTX) 13
Creatinine 18
from November
BSAP-11.7
NTX 12
Creatinine 29 oops edited cause I can't read and type at the same time.
Second results are from a different lab. My bone doc is two hours away so I had them done locally 3 weeks before my appt. Stupid lab sent them out, just to the wrong doctor. I'm still playing phone tag with bone doc.
Anywhos at my appt on tuesday she said they are looking for the #'s to go down. So heres my questions.
1) If they were below normal range to begin with why should they go lower?
2)Should I be worried about the NTX going up?
She also said the results wouldn't change treatment for now. That decision will be made next April after more labs and another DEXA. She also ordered a gazillion other tests and got X-Ray of spine this time around. She is testing for multiple myeloma AGAIN??? Why if it was negative the first time around? And for Celiac Disease, which I am sure I don't have. I know she is just covering all the bases and I am thankful I have a thorough doc but this is making me nuts.
I am 100% convinced this was caused by Tamox but I can't get a single doc to accept that. UGH!!!
I see the little hunched over ladies and think "O Dear, That could be me in 10 years".....and that scares the HELL out of me.
The venting tent is a grand place. It has a rock wall that we can throw things at, a canvas wall to splatter paint on, and two parchment walls for writing novels like this one.
One more gripe.....Damn insurance company did not cover my Ambien this month. GRRRRRRRRR I hate insurance companies.
Liz, only have the two oldest, 4 & 6. I am tired. Thanks in advance if you can find anything. I guess I could just be a patient patient but that is so not in me.
Was I ever 100%? I don't remember.
Cheryl, good luck with the map...I am in Sonora, California
Shel, sending you my superwoman cape to ward off the new attitude. Don't worry, the Aliens will return your true daughter in a few years.
Hugs, and Strength to you
And of course hugs and sparkles to all who need them and even if you think you don't.
Have a great day.0 -
Morning girls,
Its cold here in Middle America. Im going wigwam shopping today since the wagon is way too cold for my old bones. I thought the cooler weather would be great for the few hot flashes I still have but nope I still hate it. My sis-in-law is at the in-laws this weekend so Im actually free to do whatever I want today. Im thinking not a darn thing! LOL. Theres going to be a family meeting tomorrow to decide what the next step for the in-laws will be. Cant go as Im hosting a baby shower so that gets me out of that one also. I did arrange home health care to come in 3x a week for 60 days. Thats a big help.
DebC , Ive seen bag balm at WalMart. Ill have to check it out. My skin gets really dry now.
Laura, Im a lobular girl too. Ill be ready to ride out and will be in the waiting room during you bx. Prayers for B9 results.
Shel, I remember my kid at 13. As Sher said, the Aliens will return her eventually. Things do get better. Just not what you need right now. Hope the hottie is around today.
Sher, I am not a patient patient! Ill do some checking and if I find out anything Ill let you know. I cant imagine keeping up with a 4 and 6 year old nowdays. Youre a good grammie.
Nickii, glad you called in the script. Good luck on the Christmas presents. I havent even thought of Christmas yet.
Ladies, Im trying a new recipe today. Well have pork chili with Spanish rice, tortillas and cinnamon crunchies for dessert. Ive never made any of this so it could be a disaster. Oh well, McDs is right down the road.
Hope everyone has a great day. Ill check in later.
Hugs

JEWEL LYRICS
"Hands"
If I could tell the world just one thing
It would be that we're all OK
And not to worry 'cause worry is wasteful
And useless in times like these
I won't be made useless
I won't be idle with despair
I will gather myself around my faith
For light does the darkness most fear
My hands are small, I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken
Poverty stole your golden shoes
It didn't steal your laughter
And heartache came to visit me
But I knew it wasn't ever after
We'll fight, not out of spite
For someone must stand up for what's right
'Cause where there's a man who has no voice
There ours shall go singing
My hands are small I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
I am never broken
In the end only kindness matters
In the end only kindness matters
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
I will get down on my knees, and I will pray
My hands are small I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken
My hands are small I know
But they're not yours, they are my own
But they're not yours, they are my own
And I am never broken
We are never broken
We are God's eyes
God's hands
God's mind
We are God's eyes
God's hands
God's heart
We are God's eyes
God's hands
God's eyes
We are God's hands
We are God's hands
Love you ladies

Hi Everyone
Cold and dreary up here in Canada .... a good day to sit around the campfire! Hope everyone is well and warm.
Laura.. you will be in my thoughts and prayers Monday. Keep us posted. Sorry if I missed one of your posts ... what is the background on the biopsy Monday?
Been attempting to "create" our map. Now if I could learn to post pictures we would be all set
Have a great evening everyone
CherylG0 -
Hey Shel...big hugs to you...what did you do with the hottie neighbor...wear him out?!? Throwing you a life vest to keep that beautiful head of yours above water.
NS...glad to see you peeking out...are you feeling better? You are so needed here but rest in the center if that's what you need.
Cheryl...I will try to find the directions for posting pictures.
Liz...bag balm is wonderful stuff!
Shirley...sending you a hug.
Susan...all will be well...saying prayers for it to be so.
Laura...B9B9 chant for Monday...and we will be with you with the chocolate fountain (and maybe some brandy or wine to calm the nerves).
Nicki...I love reading your posts...you put me right with you with your beautiful writing...maybe you should write my novel...won't be quite so pretty though.
Deb...doing any better with the "moving beyond"...it's hard...I know.
RobinTN...where are you...hope all is well...I know that weekends are tough so hang out in the center where there is lots of love and support for you.
Cheryl...it started out a beautiful day here today, blue sky...really mild temps then got gray and rainy and supposed to only be in the 40's tommorow...yeech...longing for my daughter in sunny Florida.
I posted the song by Jewel earlier at my daughters request...she reminded me of the song and I have always loved it. She wanted everyone to know that if she could tell us one thing it would be that we would all be ok. That poverty (bc) stole our golden shoes but not our laughter...that we will fight and she will pray for us all with her small hands. She's a doll...I love her so...crying again...geez...someone pull me out...I think I'm in the same water as Shel.
Love ya all
Vickie0 -
Hey Vicky-
Let's skip the life vest...I've got a big old rubber raft! That way we can ALL fit
I have no real reason to be blue, but...here I am feeling sad. What is this mood swing crap?
I love that song too.
Hang in there girlfriends...we can get through it together.
Deb C.0 -
Oh Deb a rubber raft sounds perfect...wait...how about a yacht!!! Thats what we need... a cruise for us all to the Bahama's.
Been blue all day and don't know why other than messed up homones...or actually...no hormones at all.
But...on a lighter note...I spent money today that I'm feeling a bit guilty about. I bought tickets for me and Nathaniel to go see the Moscow Russian Ballet perform the Nutcracker at the State Theater in Ithaca next Sunday at 3. I am sooooo excited!!! I always dreamed of being a ballerina when I was younger...I was totally obsessed with the idea. I had the music, books, outfits and my grandmother always put ballerinas on all my birthday cakes for years!!! Not sure if I could handle ballroom dancing at this stage in life but going to see this can at least make me dream!
Hanging in there...barely.0 -
hi Girls, Thanks for taking care of me! The food has been great!
Laura the picture just MADE MY DAY! Thank you for posting it! I will be saying extra prayers for you on Monday morning. I learned a trick for going to these core bx's. I put an ice pack in my bra and numb the area when I drive over and by the time they stick in the needle to "numb" it- I am already numb and don't feel the needle!
Shirley, my friend has Celiac disease. I hope you don't have it, but if you do it is managable- at least for my friend.
I just want to say that without the circle I would not know what to do. You all just understand everything so well. You just Get It! I know I shouldn't be sulking this long-- but I have had five years of 'scares' and 'tests' and 'near misses' and for each one I have had to fight either doctor's offices or insurance companies or both. It would be nice if we could walk in and they say X is wrong take Y and you will be all better. But I guess we aren't 5 anymore going to the pediatrician.
My water is safe now by the way- safe because there is so much chlorine in it that nothing can live! I am now a permanent bottled water drinker and so is my cat. Do any of you know anything about the difference between a clear plastic bottle verses an opaque one? Does one have carcinogens? I remember reading that somewhere and I can't remember where.
I think I am ready to do my rounds tonight. My horse needs some exercise and I haven't been doing my share around the circle. So let me see what's cookin in the cook tent and then I will sign on for night watch.
Sleep well!
Love you,
G0 -
Good Morning Everyone! Well I was successful with 2 things. I got my Lexapro ($40.00) copay - which is bad, then then not so bad compared to the cost of it without insurance. And oh my aching body. Exercised yesterday - for the first time in months. If I do it everyday, its gonna cut down on my computer time. Took an hour yesterday
But yesterdays gone and its a new day. Gonna exercise again today and will worry about tomorrow - well - tomorrow.
Chilly and cold this morning. Smells like Fall but still reminds us that Winter is just around the corner. Have been listening to the new and our dear friends who live i Wisconsin sure got their fair share of snow. 15 inches I think.
So despite how old you are, do any of you still makes snow angels? I do - I just love it. But when Im done, there is one fat angel on the ground. Once it snows this end of the circle, I think we should make a huge snowman. As big as the Paul Bunyon statue near Fargo. Only lets make him a snow woman!
Yesterday, down the street, a neighbor go one of those outdoor wood burning stoves. He was burning all of his leaves! Wow, it was wonderful I forgot homw nice the smell of burning leaves is this time of year. I thought it was illegal cause of the environment, but here you can burn them if they are contained. Might do that next year. We just filled 8 backs (about 20 pounds each) of leaves to be picked up by our garbage men.
Laura: Ok, Monday I will go around the campfire and wake everyone up early. We will be with ya during the biopsy. A core biopsy under ultrasound is similiar to one under mammosite. They use a very sophisticated piece of equipment. My radiologist did mine. I call him my radiologist lol - he followed me in the begining. I had 2 core biopsies dont by him. So Im sure your in good hands.
Your poster was great. Just what we needed to cheer NS up a bit.
Shirley: Oh I wish I could help. Just read the results. Its a foreign language to me I wish one of our dear sisters "Jorf" was here. She is a nurse practioner specializes in this stuff.
Vickie: Great song and great lyrics. Im with DebC. Feeling blue - now whats up with this! Has to be the change of Seasons. And change in daylight savings time. I mean, right now its get dark at almost 4:3-. There is just not enough Sunshine. Today is gonna be a repeat of yesterday. Good for you buying those ballet tickets! I am just like you though, I want to bad to go shopping today and get a couple of new outfits. Its seems with all of my medical bills and stuff, I dont have much money left for me! And I hate that. We work so hard everyday, and should be able to treat ourselve to something special once in a while.
NS: yep we hear ya. Nothing has been simple with this disease and its treatment.
So I pulled all my flowers (annuals) but left my Snap Dragons. I bought a bunch of them this past Spring cause I like to make the flower talk. Well gosh darn, they grew to be huge and believe it or not, even with the frost we have had, they are still blooming! Unbelievably strong plant. Im sure once we have a "hard frost" they will go away. It actually sort of looks funny having blooming flowers at this time of year.
I finished my first Christmas present. It is quite detailed. Its a snowman with a fence, with a base on the bottom around his belly. Have a Cardinal sitting on top of the fence. Made a mail box and have presents sitting inside. havent decided what I gonna put in the fence area. But its done and looks pretty good. Onto my new project. Gonna be similar to the snowman only this one is gonna be a ginger bread boy..
Anyways, time to go - its Sunday - I think I need an early morning nap. Have a great day everyone.
Nanium: where are you? Havent heard from you in a while.

hmmm....looks like it was a quiet evening and is a quiet morning here in our lovely circle. Hope all our circle girls are under their covers...warm and cozy...dreaming sweet happy dreams. Cold and gray at this end of the circle, making homemade cinammon rolls, have the fireplace going, coffee is on and can whip up some omelets and homefries when everyone wakes up.
Enclosing my front porch this morning (with help of a friend)...my front porch isn't very big so it will be a pretty easy job...I painted all the plywood yesterday and he's putting in two really big windows on each side. Bought blue icicle lights that I'm going to hang around it when we're done. The neighbors all laugh at me for putting up all my lights so eary and then I laugh at them when they are out there in the snow up to their knee's putting theirs up!! I have LOTS of lights...I love to decorate for Christmas. Thanksgiving afternoon we put up our tree and decorate inside...it's all so very beautiful. Nathaniel is a funny kid...loves the presents but is more excited about decorating than anything else. He still believes in Santa (he's 7) and it's such a fun wonderful thing...hope it last a couple more years.
Geez...yacking about Christmas and it isn't even Thanksgiving yet. I've invited several family member to come to Thanksgiving but no takers. It's hard with my daughter and SIL in Florida. I thought about going down there but the plane tickets were 558.00 each!!! OUCH. Thinking I may call the Salvation Army and "host" a family or an elderly couple to my home for the day.
I think our larger than life snowmomen should have one boob...with a pink scarf and pink M&M eyes and mouth (if we can keep Cheryl away cuz she'll eat them) LOL. Snow angels...not me...I hibernate. Just can't tolerate the cold no matter how warm I dress.
NS...sulk all you want...wish we were all five again without a care in the world. Hope that today is a brighter day for you...know how much you are loved here.
Ok...enough babbling...off to get my house picked up, cuddle Nathaniel and get ready to start the porch.
Thinking of you all
Hugs
Vickie0 -
Odark30, the grands are fighting already. Rained all day yesterday and they have cabin fever. Grammies house is small and boring. I think it's gonna be a long day.
Vicki, lovely song. I still believe in Santa. I'm with you on the cold. Wish I lived in Hawaii. Take pics of the work in progress. Can I go to the Ballet with you?
Cheryl, I seem to be hopeless in the picture posting area as well. Always have to send them to someone else for posting.
NS, I don't have Celiac Disease. Nor do I have Multiple Myeloma. They are just two of the gazillion things that cause Osteoporosis and since no one will accept mine was caused by tamox the doc just keeps doing the stupid tests. One day I will run out of blood and they will have to consider my theory.
Nicki, thanks anywhos. Liz found some info for me. Still have questions but will wait to connect with doc about them.
I heard last night that you just figured out who I am. Made me smile. I thought I was infamous.
For those that don't know. I am sherloc from the chat room.
I love snapdragons.
ladies you are making me feel ummmmmmmm lazy?
I'm not even in Thanksgiving mode yet.
Off to beat the grands senseless. heehhehe just kidding. One more day till mommy comes. Have a grand day.0 -
Sherloc: your too funny. Yes, I went on the chat Friday and it was great talking with everyone. Thats when Liz told me who you were. Its funny, cause we have known each other for along time. Im glad liz got you some information about your blood tests. Next time - ask for copies!
Vickie: Hard not to talk about Christmas. Thanks Giving is just around the corner. We always decorate the day after.
Well - I exercised again this morning. Now thats day 2! Its a start. And, I finially do believe, I am not gonna get my husbands cold. Its been over a week - he's pretty much over it himself.
Ok - gotta go. Need a Sunday Paper and then want to watch football all day.
See ya in the morning
Nicki0 -
I am here vicki thanks for asking.I have had the strangest thing happen to me.I got a giant boil on the inside of my left leg last week and I mean giant.It would not drain so I took antibiotics showed it to my onc the works.he thought it would get better.We the gaint one has divided into 5 smaller ones which have since ruptured and drained and are feeling better.Now the strange part.My heel had been hurting also and all I could find on it was a rough spot so i put lotion on it.Well thursday evening I got up to walk and it felt like water swashing around inside my foot.When I looked it it had formed a huge boil on the side of my heal.I have never heard of a boil on the heel.So i got out my sterile instruments,popped a whole in it and it wouldnt drain so i stood up and put pressure on it and man did it drain,i took scissors and cut the dead skin away so now I have a raw sport which I keep a bandage on.My doc thinks its an autoimmunie disorder like my system is so worn down from the chemo it cant fight off anything even a skin disorder.I cant wear shoes I cant go to the store i cant do anything.and of course the dh is bitching at me constantly because i havent been to the grocery store yet.I told him to go.
I know i have never had something so small hurt so bad,if it would grown new skin on the area it would heal better.
So thats whats going on with me.Thanks again for asking and caring.0 -
YIKES Robin...that sounds painful. I hope this is the end to the boils and that they heal up soon.
Hugs,
Deb C.0 -
Hi girls,
Im hosting a baby shower today (couldnt say no) so just stopping in to say hi to all.
I actually have on real clothes not sweats today! LOL Went shopping yesterday and got some real bargains. Its always nice when that happens. Plus I could get into a smaller size jean. Wooohoooo. That made my day.
Vickie, your daughter sounds like a wonderful, caring young lady. Thanks for sharing. The ballet sounds like its going to be so much fun for you and Nathaniel. Ive always wanted to see that live.
NS, Ive read so much about bottled water I stay confused. I have a filter I use for water. I drink a lot of it. Hope youre feeling better.
Nicki, you always make me feel like Im right there with you. Hope you have a nice relaxing day. Good job on the exercising girl. Its hard isnt it?
Sher, hope today is a good day for you and the kids. I bet youre tired but I know youre enjoying them.
Robin, Ive been wondering how you were. OUCH! Boils can be so painful. Try soaking in some warm water. Hope you heal quickly. Good for you telling the bum to go to the store himself. Geez! Like youre doing all this on purpose. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
I cant even think of Thanksgiving yet! Lots of people were shopping for groceries for their dinners yesterday. Not sure what the plans are for us yet.
I love the snowwoman idea. Well have to see what we can come up with.
To all Ive missed. Hugs and prayers as always.

Good Morning Girls
Getting a late start today. Had a bit of an emergency last night. Around 8:00pm they called from my mom's nursing home to tell me they had taken her to hospital. She is 89 and a 2 hour drive away
Got back around 4:00am. She is ok for now just a pacemaker malfunction thank god.
Funny there seems to be a common "blue" feeling in the circle. I feel it too. Must be the lack of hormones or the weather. Maybe a nice hot chocolat around the campfire would do us good.
Deb C .... ah yes mood swings! If you don't like the mood I am in stick around 5 minutes, it's bound to change!!!!
Susan.... thinking of you and praying all will be well.
Laura .... sending positive B9 vibes your way for tomorrow.
Vickie ... wish I was in Fla too. We seem to be getting much the same weather as you up here
Nosurrender ... nice to see you, hope you are well
Nicki ... smells a lot like fall up here too. Just love the smell of burning leaves in the air. Snowangels??? I can't find a patch of snow big enough to make one
Besides that sounds too much like exercise!!
Dressmaker ... Is your snow melting yet or is going to stay? Where in WI are you? My DH is from Manitowoc.
Shirley ... hmmm good idea. Once I get it set up I'll look for a volunteer. Sooo alias Sherloc eh? I saw your name in chat the few times I checked in there. I don't go there often as I prefer the circle
Robin ... ouch!! Sounds awful ... hope it heals soon
To all who I have missed ... have a great day. You are all in my thoughts and prayers daily
CherylG0 -
Nicki, I have copies. Problem was the lab didn't send them to the correct doc so she didn't have them at my appt and we have not been able to connect since then.
Robin OUCH!!!!
Hi Deb
Cheryl, hope I was nice when you were in chat....if I wasn't just slap me upside the head and blame it on "mood swings"0 -
Bummer - just wrote a really long post and lost it. I know from my reading that this happens from time to time.
Don't have time to recreate right now - but consisted of a delicious breakfast, warm wishes for the many "blue" ladies (including me!) right now, and some other good stuff!!
ARRRGGGHHH!0 -
Oh Robin...not fair...especially on top of DH (and that's NOT dear husband). Put on some nice warm fuzzy socks and come to the ballet with me and Nathaniel, we'll sneak you in barefoot!
Shirley...come along...everyone can come along. Wouldn't that be a sight...all us circle girls at the ballet. You can get an idea of where we are going at www.stateofithaca.com. I don't know if I'll be allowed to take pictures but you can bet I'm sure gonna try! I will at least get the program and try to post pics from that afterwards. I love the Nutcracker...(hey Robin THATS what you need!!! Get it? LOL.)
Cheryl...home at 4am...you need a nap sweetie. I can't stay awake past 10 anymore...can't imagine 4am...oh but those were the days! Glad she's ok though.
Nicki...your crafted snowman sounds beautiful...can we see a picture? I think everyone is getting either crocheted items and baked goods this year. My daughter just told me she would love to have a sewing machine...I swear she read my mind because it's what I had already decided to get her!
The porch is done! My fingers and toes are freezing...not sure they are even there at this point but the porch looks great and will keep the wind at bay at least on that part of the house.
Starving...gotta go find something to eat besides chocolate.
Hugs all
Vickie0 -
vickie
a nutcracker is going to be one of the milder devices he will wish i had used when it is all said and done.I just cant wait to get well to get on with my life.0 -
Hi campers - I'm glad to hear that I 'm not the only one in a "funk" (well, I wish none of us were, but its nice to know I am not alone). I started on Effexor 75mg on Wednesday. The first couple days it made me feel weird. The first day I did not follow directions and took it without food and boy was that a mistake. Now I take it at lunch - I am not a breakfast person. Just don't know how to get out of this mood! I know the Effexor does not work right away - before I started taking it I cried at about anything - gyn said is was due to the ooph (even though I had been on Lupron and he suggested the Effexor. I still think its partly the culmination of the past 9+ months of diagnosis and treatment and now being done.
Its cold and damp in Denver today (no sun)!. My 8 year old daughter ran a 5K race this morning and I went to cheer her on. She ran it in just over 39 minutes which is just under a 13 minute mile. She has participated in a program after school called "Girls on the Run" which works on team building, self-esteem and of course running. There is another race in the spring.
Nickie - glad to hear the you got your Lexapro covered.
Laura - good luck tomorrow with your biopsy. I'll be thinking about you and hoping for good results.
RobinTn - hope your foot is better.
CherlyG - hope your mom continues to do okay.
WEll - its hard to keep up with everyone, so forgive me for cutting this short. I will post more another time.0 -
Sending Karen a hug...I think it's all a combination of gray days, colder weather, time change, lack of estrogen and bc. Some days (or weeks) can really hit us in the face all at once. Congratulations to your daughter on her 13 minute mile!!
Vera...where are you? We could use some humor here!
Robin...I can just imagine!!
Hugs all
Vickie0 -
I am really worried that the hospital parking lot will not be big enough for all your horses! LMAO
Thanks, big time!
Laura0 -
Laura...we'll line the streets if we have too.
NS...hmmm...would Bruce Springsteen put a bit off happy back in your step.
Peggy...Mena...Susan...Vera and anyone else I missed...hope you are all doing ok and happy...we miss you here.
Vickie0 -
Hi circle girls-
Below is a list of all the the people who have signed up to do a holiday card exchange. If you would like to participate, all you need to do is PM me your snail mail address. I'm putting together the list and will send it out by PM to everyone. I hope to send out the list on Thanksgiving weekend so everyone has time to get cards done.

Laura GOOD LUCK TOMORROW!!!!!!!
It will be ok- no matter what happens it will still be ok!
I will say special prayers for you.
Deb I have to send you my addy. I keep forgetting.
Have you all noticed that our Gloominess coincides directly with the ending of daylight savings time? I must say that it used to bother me a little but this year, with everything going on, having it get dark at 4 is really depressing! AND it makes one want to EAT more!
I am joining the Y tomorrow so I can continue to be as active as I was when it was warm and light outside. When you are triple neg there isn't anything to take to ward off the beast but I know that exercise helps. I need to do this because my energy level has really dropped.
Yes vickie! The Boss would definitely put a bit of happy in my step!
The horses have been acting a little weird too - have you noticed?? Maybe because Distorted Humor wants to make sure he wins that special commendation next year as well???
Reporting for duty- no dinner for me tonight- i am officially cutting down before I gain back the weight I lost over the summer!
Love you circle girls!!0 -

Argggg! I need a kick in the butt circle girls! I have had one to many panicky moments and The blues have hung around way too long. They have SO outlived their welcome. SO...I'm going to pout until I go to bed, and then tomorrow...no blues allowed! Even if it means I have to sit in front of the TV watching cartoons all day, I AM going to be in a better mood. Wish me luck
