Okay, Barbe, how many sock monkeys have you made in your day? DS & DIL are doing their nursery in monkeys and I found sock monkey fabric, but thought better of it since they had different monkeys picked out.

PM*LISA sending you some colorful sock-monkey hugs: soft and squeezie.

I am not a puppet fan or clown fan either, but that was one reason I din't pick up the sock monkey fabric. I wonder why I feel that way.

Don't want you to be frightened!!0 -
Those aren't too bad, but I think maybe it's their mouths that scare me.

Meece - probably some kids' show in the 60's and they creeped us out!

Bozo-phobia?
0 -
HAHA! Yeah, that would do it! An entire generation traumatized by Bozo the Clown!

A LOT of people freak out at clowns. Must be their over-sized mouth...like "I'm going to eat you!!!"

No wonder we were scared!

I wouldn't watch HR Puff n Stuff either.

...and then Steven King wrote "IT"......

I read that the guys who created H R PuffnStuff were high on something! That would explain why it was such a freaky show. Poor us....
Stephen King saw a golden opportunity with clowns and baby boomers, that's for sure!
Of course, somehow he did it with St. Bernards and old cars, too. I'm just now finishing up "Under The Dome". So far, I have not been scared out of my wits.

I have had to let the horror story seeking side of myself go as I grow old. I already have an Ex to spur on my night terrors.

Meece - That's too bad about the ex taking the spot of a good horror novel.

I hate clowns. They scared the crap out of me when I was younger.
0 -
The ex really does spur nightmares when I have to "deal" with him. Really I am not that fragile, just in that aspect.

I understand you Meece.

Lewis Carrol who wrote Alice in Wonderland was known to be on heroin....or was it the guy who wrote about Sherlock Holmes? One of them wrote "The 5% Solution" which was about heroin. Guess I could just google it, but I'll let someone else correct me.
0 -
Sherlock Holmes was in the 10% Solution, referring to cocaine, I believe. Heaven knows what Lewis Carol was on when he wrote Alice!

Maybe I'm on something.....that's right! I am!!!! Narcotics! hehehehehehehehehehehhehehhee

Sock Monkeys are cute. I like the original color ones the best. Well I went to the Onc today. I have no Rads to do, the margins were veery good, so there is no point in doing them. She has given me my opitions so now I just have to figure out what to do. Its a harder one to come up with then when I had to decide on if the boobs stay or go. She showed me this tool they use called shared decision making. It shows how each treatment helps on fighting the cancer and keeping it from coming back. I think not doing nothing would be crazy. I just dont know if I just want to do Tamoxifen alone or do both Chemo and Tamoxifen. So I just thought Id get your feedback. I will do something thats for sure, just dont know yet which way to go. Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks gals.

Hey ladies--I don't post here too often, but I GREATLY enjoy reading along. I esp. enjoyed the 'cow patty' story!
As a colon cancer butt-kicker (dx in '09, 1 year before bc dx), I would like to put in my 2 cents about colonoscopies! I'm glad to hear many of you are soon going to have one or have had one already. My first prep I had to drink a gallon of clear stuff, and a year later they had me take some pills, and drink a miralax mix instead. I actually preferred the gallon stuff because with the other prep I had to wake up at 5 am and drink some more. I preferred getting it all done in one evening (about 4 hours). The day of the prep you can only have clear liquids (and no red liquids), so I was very hungry! That is the worst part for me. Like some others I got versed in an iv (and another drug too, but I forgot what). I don't fall asleep during the procedure--instead I watch it on the screen. I did have some weird memory lapses after though--very strange to find out you forgot something that just happened moments before! My first one I ate a lot of green jello the day before--guess what I could see floating around in my colon? I asked the doc--"is that green jello?" "Yep", he says,"we see that a lot!" And he and the nurse chuckled. The worst part, of course, was seeing the large tumor! Both the doc and I were expecting to find out I had colitis, or IBS. I was only 44.
So, ANY changes in bowel habits, other than those caused by chemo, of course, PLEASE see your doc!
Thank you ladies for the laughs!

Love my sock monkey slippers. Hate clowns, seeing the movie "IT" made it official.
Everyone have a great weekend.

I think Sherlock's author, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was on the laudanum, containing opium. That's how those Victorians rolled back then. Charles Dickens was another who drank it. Neither one of their literary legacies have suffered from their being on the "L" back in the day.
Barbe, maybe it's time to write a book!
