    Thanks, Liz, it was a lot of fun. They had a duo playing and they took requests. We got to dance (we don't get to normally because DH is in a band and playing).

    leisaparis, will you wait til noon (your time) to post a Weekend Mystery Pic?  We need to give Huskerkkc a chance if she is able to stop in and do it. 

    Huskerkkc, if  you read this after noon (your time) and leisa had put one up already, then post yours also.  We are npot meaning to cut youout and we can have two this week if it works out that way.

    BarbA, nice sunset!!!

    chrissyb, pop in all you want.

    barbe1958,  I have waited nearly two years for the words "dead jelly fish" to finally appear in this thread.  I knew it would have to happen sometime.

    blondiex46, Even in a closed adoption situation, I still think it is important for the kids to have some idea of the health histories of their biological parents.  A lot of times it remains another big question mark.  Did you, yourself, get the BRCA done then?

    At your birth, your mom decided what would be best for you, and that set up your whole life one way instead of another; but once you were grown it is too bad that she could not allow you some choice in how it would be.  Sorry it went that way.

    Barbara how fun. DH and I went with friends to a Mexican Restraunt last night. They had a mariachi band and had people getting up to sing with them. Very lively and fun and the food and margaritis were good too.

    I'm here...been running low grade fever and did too much outside this morn. I have a pic but don't have it figured out how to reduce to "guessing" size. I won't have a chance to mess with it any more right now. If I can get it posted yet tonight I will; otherwise will save for another time. Glad you had something to post!

    sorry you haven't been feeling well, but glad you're okay. watch out for the sun it can drain you. we worked in the garden last weekend ( hoeing, watering, replanting ) was almost to much. had to go sit in the shade @ every 1/2 hour & cool off. also took a cold towel and kept wiping my face and neck to keep cool. gotta do what we gotta do.

    The mystery picture is strings of pearls.

    My Avatar is a picture of a Monk Seal peacfully sleeping next to a piece of drift wood (sorry no dead jelly fish).  I found the monk seal sleeping on the beach we were walking on.   It is taken on the island of Kauai, Poipu beach.  

    Barbara, glad you like the iris, they are one of my favorites too.

    Mystery pic:  Is it a flower garden seen thru' a gauzy black cloth?

    c-79, Love irises, their colors and how hardy they are.. Have some by my mailbox that have withstood many a visiting neighborhood dog, if you know what I mean.

    I am home and way too much for this foggy brain to caught up on.

    Went to the hospital at 7:00 for 9:00 surgery.  Did not get taken in until 12:45 - home at 4:30.

    No pain, no bleeding.  He did do the biopsy and scraped my uterus.  Will see him again week after next for results.  He is out of town next week for family business - I knew that going into this today.  Not even worried about the results - we are dealing with a fibroid for gosh sakes.  

    Resting today and should be back to my normal self tomorrow.

    Thanks to everyone for all your thoughts and prayers.

    Love the irises, CL! I regret not digging up my irises when I moved from my last house.

    Way to alliterate, Eph!

    Wait, I got it.  Is it looking down into a black-bristled paintbrush, with some colorful paint residue still on the tips of the bristles?

    jo, the no pain or bleeding part sounds good...now to rest and let your body get rid of all the anesthesia.  Nice to have taken care of it quickly.

    Eli - Hope this is the last thing I have to deal with for a very long time.  It was not in my plans to have any kind of procedure done this summer.  Oh well!  Just a little bump in the road.  I am past that and tommorrow will be a much better day.

    Jo, relax the rest of the weekend & I know you'll let us know when you get the good news the week after next.

    I arrived home a while ago, enjoyed the trip to TX to 'be' with you during surgery.....ha, ha, ha!

    Hi everyone, can't find the mystery pic.  Can someone please tell me how to put my pics up.  Keep trying but can't work it out. DH was laid off from work last week so that's not great.

    My thoughts and prayes to you all

    Dang it Chrissy, that was my choice!! I kept wondering why no one else saw it as butterfly wings....

    Jo, my fibroids were on the outside of my uterus and made it all huge!! Glad you're healing nicely....well done! Much easier than a hysterectomy!!

    Joni, I too, was impressed with the alliterative sentence. Way to go!!
