    true, did have trouble but am in good shape after several thousands of dollars at the dentist

  • MissShapen
    MissShapen Member Posts: 3,963

    True, I absolutely love all fruit!

    TC, no more Herceptin for me. They even took my port out. It was horrible news at the time. If I have a recurrance I'm pretty screwed because I can't take Herceptin or Tykerb. Let's hope I don't need it.

    I quit smoking several years ago! :-)

    I like to crochet, but I'm still working on a baby blanket that should have been finished years ago.

    Hey Miss S:  Sorry for the crap you're going thru - cure the disease kill the person carrying it......ugh.  My onc had mention A/C when I was first diagnosed but I already knew about the heart connnection and since I ALREADY had a heart issue (minor electrical) he said no, we'll do T/C.

    TC:  Yes, getting back into the pool is my "reward"......gals, nothing like it not only for the benefit of using every muscle in the body with no impact but just the serenity of being enveloped by healing water (to me all waters heal) is heavenly.  Do I sound like a freakin' nut?

    Harley:  Glad hubby is on board if you want to quit, makes it "easier" is you know you can walk out the door at anytime.

    True we have had some good corn on the cob but know better stuff is coming.....yum. 

    The next person has had good watermelon this year - I bought some but it wasn't quite "there" yet.

  • spar2

    I never smoked ever in my life, but I was exposed to alot of second hand smoke, since my Mom smoked and my dh smoked when we were first married, and before, when we were dating...

    Summer is my favorite time of year!  I LOVE cantaloupe!  I am wondering WHO is actually able to eat fruit NOW? 

    No I don't make up my bed, Yes, I am having dental problems from chemo, and now... 8 months post chemo, I have mouth sores and OUCH! do they ever hurt!!  WTH?   I am worried about having $$$ huge dental bills, since my dh lost his dental plan when he retired... that is why I took this lousy job, before I was really ready to go back.  Monday, my boss got mad at me, because I have two dr. appts. next week, on Monday a primary care dr. appt., and on Thursday, another 'tattoo' appt. for this aureola... It hurt so bad the last two times, I just want to skip the whole tattoo session, but the original one faded, and the second time around, the whole thing just peeled off!  WTH?  So now I have to go back to get another coat, and I hope it is the last one!!   The tattooist said that she will just go around the nipple, which is still newly  two weeks post surgery...  does this EVER end? 

    Yes, I drink tea.

    The next person will go to bed early tonight... I probably will, since I have to go to work tomorrow.  It is going to be a long day on my feet all day... but I know others have even longer days, and probably even worse jobs...

    false on going to bed early, too bad of weather, have to keep eye open for tornadoes

     who shops at walmart besides me???

  • WellWater
    WellWater Member Posts: 4,524

    Spar - sorry you have tornado's to watch for tonite - here's hoping none of them touch down on you Oklahomans!  I think OK has had enough bad weather.

    Candie:  I was a long time smoker and still miss it at times - I know how damned hard it is to quit but keep trying.......as Mark Twain once said "quitting is easy, I've done it a thousand times"

    Also keep at the water exercises - once you get addicted to that you'll be happy.

    I make my bed everyday no matter what - even when I planned on going back within an hour or so during chemo drag days - I even wonder what's up with that.

    I shop at Walmart - who can pass up those deals?

    The next person will be attending a fest this weekend - we're going to the Blues Fest in Chicago's Grant Park as we have for the past 20 years.  It's a wonderful fest.

  • catbert4209
    catbert4209 Member Posts: 122

    Blues Fest!!!!   I want to come, too!!!

    Unfortunately it is tooooooo hot already in Houston to attend anything outdoors.  I'm going to fix up my home office, instead.

    Harley, if it is any help, I put in my notice at my job this past week--too much stress and drama at work and I need all my energy to get through my exchange surgery and recovery next Wednesday!  My DH is behind me 100%, thank heavens!

    I do make my bed every morning, and put the decorative pillows on it, too!  My dad got us into the habit of making our beds every day, and I have never been able to drop it.

    Gug, I love water exercises.  Feels great in the summer in Houston.  I just don't know how soon I'll be able to do them because of the surgery.  Hopefully soon!!!

    The next person bakes all their family's cookie recipes at Christmas!

    True to baking cookies at Christmas. The only year I didn't was when I was doing chemo...just didn't have the energy.

    The next person is having a hard time sleeping tonight...I am.

  • spar2
    spar2 Member Posts: 3,631

    guggerty, how far do you live from Chicagos grant park?  Is there anything like that in Sept.  We have to go to Chicago then.

    I do a lot of baking at Christmas and Thanksgiving

    I am having a hard time sleeping tonight I think because of the weather.  We lost everything we had except our lives in the May 3rd 1999 tornado so I am really scared of them.  It is lightening and thundering with high winds right now.

    the next person has visited the Bahamas

  • spar2
    spar2 Member Posts: 3,631

    I lived through all the storms last night with very little sleep though

    Has anyone visited the bahamas, i did  along time ago and would love to go back,  my son goes every year for Christmas

  • candie1971
    candie1971 Member Posts: 2,467

    False, never have been to the Bahamas...maybe one day

    Spar, glad to know you are ok. I saw on the news that you are having tough weather in your area. Prayers coming your way for your safety.

    The next person is so glad it is Friday.

    LUVmy2girlZ Member Posts: 880

    True ~ Fridays are good...Cool

    Not much of a fisher...but my dh luvs to charter a boat and go ...I luv grouper on the grill...we both fry it and grill it on a cedar plank with olive oil and garlic yum!!!!!  add lemon afterwords...it tends to make fish dry.

    Spar (you got your avatar!! GFY..luv it)  miss ya at BW's!  Glad to hear your okay...I am sure panic sets in.

    We just started our Hurricane season

    The next person luvs the rain while taking a nap!

  • candie1971
    candie1971 Member Posts: 2,467

    True, love to nap in the rain...tho I don't usually get a chance to.

    False to fishing.

    The next person loves to watch tv in bed...I do

  • WellWater
    WellWater Member Posts: 4,524

    False to watching tv in bed....how do you stay awake laying down watching tv?  I can barely stay awake sitting up in a chair watching tv.  I do, however, like to listen to NPR while in bed....love napping to it.

    Spar - we are approx an hour away from Grant Park in Chicago.... hubby and I are both born and raised in Chicago and lived there many years.  There is always something going on...I do know off hand that the Jazz Fest is held around Labor Day in Sept.  Google Chicago Festivals and check out what is going on in Sept.  Let me know the dates you are coming in and if I hear of anything I'll pass it on.

    Glad you got thru your bad weather ok....we are having storms here now and they keep saying tornado watch......tis the season!

    Luv.....I love to nap during any kind of weather!  As a matter of fact when I read your message I immediately got into nap mode and I'm heading over to that bed for a little nappy!

    The next person remembers where they were when they heard the news that Robert Kennedy was shot....such a sad day 40 years ago

    takingcare Member Posts: 1,257

    False to the actual news of his assasination, but at six I still do remember the televised funeral procession.  

    Safe thoughts for all of you undergoing weather watches.   That has to be frightening.  We don't have weather issues, but they've been saying the "big one" (earthquake)  is coming ever since I was a kid.  With the global plates shifting, it makes me a bit nervous.

    Spar - Love, love, love your new avitar!  

    Guggerty - Wow! Have a blast at the Blues festival.  What fun!!

    MissS - As a triple neg, I understand how you feel.  To you, me and all of us...meet NED and may he dance with us forever...

    Marcus Schenkenberg 0274

    Hugs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    The next person has known NED for over a year.  We've been dancing now for 2!

    True, I have been dancing with NED for over a year! *twirl*

    We had a tornado here to other day. Scary stuff.

    I love to watch TV and movies in bed! Yes, I do sleep while I do it. Hee!
