    Hi Spookie- no, that came off FB. I have no pets due to allergies, but do love animals so!

    Gave a friend a ride to work today and met her two new kittens and gigantic St. Bernard. When I rang the doorbell, she opened the door slowly and out came this gigantic nose followed by one very big dog. I am 5 foot 7 and that dog came up to my waist! 

    Working on my short story tonight. I have been deliquent about my writing but have another class tomorrow (we finish next week already- boo hoo!)

    Wow the time has flown by on that class. 

    I've never met a Saint B in person, from their pics they look huge. Their heads are prolly bigger than all of my 7# Spookie

    Jazzy I love that pic. and just think those St. Bernard's are special furbabies they have to be big to do the job they were meant to do and we could sure have one out here carrying what they are trained to carry.

    Some rain and snow tonight, which is a surprise. Many are overwhelmed by all the snow and cold this winter. This is the first moisture we have seen in over six weeks! 

    Got three pages done on the short story and will save the rest of the work for next week. The teacher says it should really only be anywhere from 3-10 pages. I think mine is going to be around 7-8. It is developing nicely!

    OMG Jazzy that is so hard to do, writing. I did try years ago and got inpatient to get to my thought and I know that doesn't work that way. And I also did a childrens story about the tooth fair that I made up when the kids were little and they loved it, but when I wrote it out I was putting in my goofy sense of humor and it wasn't meant for that. and I left it alone--my DD still has the writing cuz it wasn't to long ago. It's so silly.

    Hi Cami- they call that childrens writing, humor writing too. There so many different kinds of writing people can do! 

    You need to find that story and ready it again to Joey!

    This old Hermit is getting out of the house today! I've actually been out everyday in the past 4. I did the usual errands on Saturday, church & lunch Sunday, PCP Monday, and I'm having lunch at Red Lobster with my sister today. 

    We've had to cancel Bible study the past 2 weeks because of extreme cold, and with 6-10 inches of snow on the way tonight, it looks like we'll have to cancel tomorrow too. 

    I go to my onc on Friday for follow up and I'll have her look at that tiny knot I found above my scar. Believing it's just a cyst.

    Hi Ducky- good to see you here. I heard about world cancer day on the news today, and that they expect cancer occurrences to rise 70% in the next 20 years. A sobering statistic. Made me think about a lot of things and people today.....

    Hoping everyone is having a good day. We got snow finally.

    i am feeling sad today as this thread used to feel a safe nest where you could rely on kindness and gentleness with each other but over the last few weeks the atmosphere has changed a lot. Clearly something went on between some members but despite that there seem to be lots of old members absent and i wonder if they also feel like me, that the nest is lost now ?

    Lily of course it's up to you, but over time a lot of threads have bumps in them, but we get thru it and settle down and it back as usual, no one like it but it happens---there is still goodness here, safety and kindness here-but remember not everyone gets along perfectly cancer or not. there are so many personalities involved and very fragile temperaments it's not easy-we just go along and try to get back on track--we don't like loosing some people, but it happens--it doesn't change the thread it just changes with different people.I t actually happens on more than this one, it's just the way it is. But most of us try to overlook things and some cn't for their own private reasons , but I still respect anyone for leaving cuz there are usually a lot of reasons involved not just one. And it's understandable.

    Hi hermits- I plan to stick around here. I have come and gone from other threads that have not always been a fit for me, but love my hermits.

    Good Morning Hermits.

    After today's zap only 10 more rad treatments.  I am amazed at the emotional stages I have gone through.  During each one I think I have figured out my new normal.  Ha-ha on me.  A new stage comes along, and I find a different new normal.  Being on this thread has been a blessing ... thank you all.

    I truly hope everything has settled down, after all it is true, if we all felt good and "normal" we wouldn't be here. We have bad days, some good days and even worse days--and no rules how we feel. So let's ll just keep going---this is a wonderful group and some have stayed and if anyone is helped by it it's wonderful.

    Just wanted you all to know I'm not MIA. I'm reading, just haven't been posting. 

    For the record: I'm not easily offended.

    Blessings
