Happy Birthday Enerva!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT ARE YOU? 10? You look like a beautiful little girl! I am probably older than you..... a little..... A little like a hundred!
I kicked Tamoxifen to the curb too! Only because of deafness.... and I was losing my hair also! But now I am normal again..... still can't hear, but I am normal.....
I can just HEAR Cammi laughing and rolling on the floor.... in her nightgown!
Okay Blueberry! Yes, I remember someone saying Blueberry Buckle.... like a Pie! I have heard of it, but don't know if I have tried it..... It must be Southern? Like Grits and Turnip Greens?
Did all your wounds heal up? You have to put Turpentine on them..... like my Grandma did.... It's a wonder we had any skin left......
I am baking ribs for dinner.... I don't each much meat..... but I love Spam..... of course that isn't meat.... it is one of the 10 nourishing foods for you.
I forgot! Sass, Mayonnaise is also good for your hair! You don't even have to rinse it out! Just style it, and go out........ see if anyone notices!
I put together a real pretty Arbor for my garden.... A Kensington Arch! so that meant I had to move a few chichalings or whatever y'all called them..... I have changed my garden stuff so many times, it never looks the same.... but it looks "cleaner" now.... I have vines growing up both sides.... They came up from last year, and I have given up trying to kill them, so they can trail over the Arch.... They are called a creeping something..... You guys know? They get little blue berries, and turn red & yellow in the fall.
I have them growing & covering the chain-link fence all around our yard.

So you guys don't go searching all over, and driving yourselves nuts.... It is a Virginia Creeper! I just thought of it! It really IS beautiful!

Berry I have no memory of it LOL. Oh my. what worked
but, based on time I'm guessing I was radioactive . Haven't talked of thyroid issues since. Just now heavy back onto it. didn't want you to think I was stuck so long later.HI1 damn it's always something. flood waters. CHIT. The insurance industry are thieves. Take your premiums and then weasal out of paying. Even if you were covered they would be weasaling out. We are at their control. I had that bathroom leak remember when the toilet was on the deck. Hartford did everything not to pay. Should have let Ds handle it from the beginning. Hope it works out for you. Any way to divert future water? I have flood insurance, but it's handled through the Hartford. Can you imagine trying to get them fairly evaluate an occurrence.
Any recource against builder for building in a old river bed? just hit some button. shifted right?????????

sweet news. Mo's nurse called earlier to say the bone scan and ct scan from last week were showing improvement or stable consistently. I had an increase of 20 in tumor markers and it was already time for the scans so it was just a wait and see situation :-(. But since scan are good mo says that small of increase in tumor markers is nothing to be concerned about. Yea. !!! So we stay on femara with little to no side effects for me. Double yea!!

Hey Owlettes,
I'm just cutting and pasting a note I wrote on another post to say jodie doodie:
Hey Hoolies I just finished reading .....boy do you all have a lot going on, as usual.
I have a rare extra day off today as the "hurricane" that turned into a tropical storm bypassed my little nook of the woods almost completely, and all of us home hospice nurses have the day off. It feels great to have an extra day to rest, relax and catch up. They say another one is headed this way in a few days, DS heads back to college on Monday so it better not mess with my boy!
I like hospice but I work too much - gotta fix that.
Love youse!

The movie was great. Go see it if you can.
I like the wig idea. And mayonaise is a good hair conditioner but you Must wash it out.
Got the bra, no more pants, I'll just have to make them as soon as I figure out a new pattern!
Gosh, I was 3 pages behind when I came back. Susan, thanks for the feedback. Glad you are enjoying your time out.
Positive vibs to everyone, have a fun weekend.

Looking good Smarty!
I'm up too late again. I just wish if I'm going to be up late that I would get more accomplished. I'm not liking the way I feel right now. I hope I feel better when I wake up...whenever I sleep.

Smarty you look great I also have two meals a day, since chemo I stopped having dinner due to my digestive system been so bad and I still have problems if I eat after 4 pm so I only have a fruit or salad for dinner. Not fun at all but ok since my appetite never got back to normal. 3:10am here lol I just woke up as usual I am still an owl

OK here I am, I fell asleep about 7PM aaarrrggg now I'm awake but not completely.
Chevy u have a beautiful garden and I love u'r home but stay out of the hair business--that's Susan's job here, yes we used to use mayonnaise but rinsing it out was a bitch. Susan I'm lucky cuz my DD does my hair when I ask her to--but remember she wouldn't permanently dye my hair foiled purple. So she got me the stuff that washes out, she's kinda of prudish, but she does do a good job. But she just does it for friends and neighbors.
Blueberry now I remember u yes Blueberry Buckle that caused more confusion around here too. Didn't ANYONE feed their babies blueberry buckle from Gerbers baby food??? I'm glad u reminded me now I remember u and I hope u'r here to stay well at least a while.
Enerva this whole weekend is u'r BD weekend so don't stop celebrating, well as long as u want. And u'r top wouldn't fit my left leg, but looks adorable on u.
Susan I'm glad u'r having some good days--enjoy
Shellshine it's so good to hear from you. Sounds like u'r working hard and that's a hard job, but u'r doing well and that's what counts.
Smaarty u look fabulous, and u worked hard for this too. Congratulations.
Dutch do u feel anxious or are u feeling sick, what going on, well I hope u'r sleeping now but if not--tell us.

Cami, I was sleeping but now have been awake for about an hour. I have some pain in places. I'm hoping it's from pushing my scooter for a little over a mile. It died at a stopllight and I couldn't started it again.

Good morning and Happy Saturday. It's gonna be really hot here today and that means in the house I'll stay.My step-mother's mother passed yesterday, she was suffering alot this last week so I know she is in a better place now. My step-mother didn't leave her side much this week, but when she went to her sister's to take a shower, that is when she passed. Everyone thinks Ruby waited to go until she was alone.
((hugs)) to everyone

Good Morning all,
Seems weird posting before Chevy....she must be at sunrise BINGO...
DH is healing, going nuts, tired of watching the news & all the problems of the world..
Basement still is a mess, fans everywhere...I need to get down there & clean, trash & recycle.
Envera, you are so talented. Tells us how you ended up in Canada with your family in Venezuela?
Looking good, Smaarty...
Dutchie, yes it's the workout from pushing. I was so sore from hauling huge buckets of water out of the window well.
Saw the MO yesterday. Still have low WBC, but platelets are normal...She says no worries, keep exercising & try to gain a little weight. No one has ever came close to saying that to me.
Love this photo

Dutch it had to be the pushing of the cycle, it's amazing u forget some times it's not as easy as it seems. I hope u feel better and
Hole I hope u'r holding up too--it's a good sign when u'r DH is moaning about being bored. What a mess u must have--do it slowly please.
Yea that Chevy she's probably waiting to hear us talk about her so she can throw it back at us. U know how she is.
Well I'll be leaving soon, of course shower first, but no lotion, I'll be in the pool and zi don't want to waste any for no good reason. LOL So I'll just use my goatmilk soap.
I hope everyone has a good weekend. I'm going to try.

Good morning people...ugh. Went to start my car but have a dead battery. So I'm waiting for AAA, and having a second cup of coffee.
I love the pics that are posted, Enervas blouse, Chevy's house, Smaarty's selfie, HiO beach pic. There is a thread on here that has all pictures of peaceful scenes to contemplate.
Tang, sorry to hear about your step mothers mom passing. I have heard other stories of people passing when love ones step out of the room. Its good she's not suffering anymore.
Dutch, I hope you rest and let your sore muscles heal.
I'll check back later. Going out front to wait for AAA to bring my new battery.
