    You know, it is really nice to be able to go to our docs and get a good report every so often.  At least we get to happy dance a couple times a year.  (And be treated like a princess.  Hi, NMI, nice to have you stop in.  You probably think we are...well, unique.  And we are!!!

    Good morning!  Anyone heard from Ainm lately?  So, Eph, everyone celebrates your birthday with a big bang each year?  You are very special!  Do you have any special plans for the weekend?

    Choose the picture by clicking that will open another window.

    Copy

    Come back to BCO

    Click on that green tree sign before the funny face in the post box.

    right click paste

    Insert

    You are all done.

    You gals crack me up! I've missed you all.

    Just got back from a cruise with Mom and Dad. I feel so guilty. Wish I could have taken all of you. Dad decided last year while Mom and I were going thru treatment that he and my DH needed a vacation and they would have to drag us along too. Had a great time, but it's just like me to be full of guilt from the whole thing. It was money we could have spent wiser. Why is it so hard to just enjoy the good things? What no pity????  I guess I'm just not one for long vacations. I'm more of a long weekend kinda gal. 

    So as we embark on this long weekend, I'm sending you all a piece of my guilt free Strawberry Cheese cake made with fat free cream cheese, and Splenda. Enjoy a great big piece as I have made two!

    No wonder your bed was empty at tuck-in!  Hope you had a good time despite the guilt, Paulding.

    JO-like your picture!!!

    Thanks Patoo and Seyla.

    I should sleep good tonight, worked in the yard today, it was hot!!  When I took the dogs for a walk, I got tangled up in the leashes while I was talking to the neighbors and kaboom!!  Then, my friend tried to make sure I was ok and help me up, my dogs growled at her... stupid dogs!!!!!! I am fine, just always embarassing when you totally wipe out!

    Good night all!

    It means The Surgeon took out 5 nodes 0 means none of them were positive for cancer
