    Cami- that is no good you have had to miss your doc apts so many times due to weather. No doubt so many everywhere dealing with that same issue. I hope you are feeling okay and can get some breaks during your busy day.

    Piper- sorry you are feeling overwhelmed right now. I hope you can feel caught up soon. And how nice those young women complimented your wisdom and experience! 

    I have felt the same way since my health changed. But received a similar comment from the VP at my client site recently. We had a new project manager join our area and he met her, but then later on the way out privately he said to me "no one is as good as you, you are the best!" Made me feel like I still had a lot to offer the world in that very moment! I am so thankful for the people that believe in me!

    Onward into Tuesday. I hope everyone is having an okay start to the week Happy

    I talked to Chevy today---she's as ornary as ever but getting around good. She's on pain meds and doesn't need PT--I was happy to hear that---she doesn't let things get her down and she's happily home, ut I'm sure she's got pain.

    Hi hermits- went to yoga at the gym tonight and saw my med onc there. LOL, now that is not someone you can make casual conversation with eh? Anyways, we did not make eye contact as he was coming in the door, as I was heading into the group exercise room. I see him again in April. 

    OncoW- so great your counselor focused on all the great progress you have made coming through this. Being at 90% is good. Enjoy your skate, maybe we will see you at the winter Olympics in 4 more years!

    High winds are back tonight. The "big winds" as they call it, they start every February and usually last through May.

    U'r so funny Jazzy, I've seen a couple of my Drs. out and about and we always hug and just talk like people--u'r so cute.

    And I didn't know u got winds like that for so  long either that can cause a lot of dust and stuff. Like I really worry about cleaning.

    Let me introduce myself.

    Came looking for this topic after Sas mentioned it on another topic recently.  I see I know many of you from else where.  I've always been a loner, even as a very young child.  I make very few friends but when I do accept you as a friend you are a friend for life.  DH is my best friend and we are much alike. We have been happily married for well over 47 years.

    LOL CAMI!  TY for the laugh this late at night. I am finally caught up on my paperwork and all babies are sleeping except the only pair of blue booties-WAIT!..He may have finally crashed....It has been crazy busy these last 2 weeks and I cannot believe I even have 5 minutes to read and respond from work. HAHA

    Not looking forward to my afternoon date with the plumber later today and I am on high hormone alert.

    Noooo not that way...the angry bird/moody way.

    Of course if he's cute....maybe I could try to get the bill lowered....OMG. I did not just say that out loud..

    Told ya...the hormonal wind is blowing through the hermie thread...and now i have to plug a few kiddos with their binkies.

    Almost time to go around and stuff my little turkeys with some yummy Similac. (gag)

    hope everyone is slumbering....Like a baby!?!

    XOXOXO

    Crazy Piper

    Hi chabba this is a great place it's calm here and we like to be alone, but no so alone all the time.

    Piper I hope u got some well needed rest that u need now.

    It's pouring with thunder and sleeting out--oooo this just keeps on getting funner. My phones will start soon , people call so early and so late, it must say in the ads 24 hr/7days a well--I'm not good at this. Usually Thursday and Sunday are the quiet days-so I hope today is===I'm so rottenLoopy spoiled it sickens me.

    Welcome Chabba- nice group of ladies here. We tend to be people that need and want a lot of alone time. I have a lot of loner energy within me too. I work with a lot of different people in my consulting work, but in my free time these days, I spend it with a selected few and then a lot of time on my own. Glad you found us! We try support one another, and have few laughs too along the way.

    Cami- I have run into some of my other docs in the past and usually do say hello. I think my reaction has more to do with my own privacy issues. I have only seen my MO a few times, so I am not sure he would readily recognize me outside of his office anyways. He is still a new doc for me. I really do like him though, one of the better providers I have had for my medical care.

    And yes, we get a lot of dust here year round, with winds and the desert. I just cleaned off my patio and window sill areas a few weeks ago, when it warmed up and there was lots of dust to clean off. Now there will be more again to clean. 

    One more day at the client site and then home tomorrow. I must finish my tax stuff and get it in the mail by tomorrow to my accountant.

    Hope everyone has a good Thursday!

    Chabba..........very familiar with you since we have posted to each other on other threads......welcome here.....it is a nice place, but honestly even though we choose to have our alone time, we also welcome the company.............like you, I don't ;try to gather friends, but the ones I have mean a lot to me.......I am more the "family" type then the "friends" type..............because my family is so large when we get together we are a crowd.....and we are very close......great sometimes........other times its an uh oh moment...........

    So welcome, and come here often, but I already know you as a BCO. friend......hugs.

    Hi Ya Chabba!

    I am a newbie to this board too. 

    And I am having the wackiest mood swings due to PMS

    makes me really want to crawl into a cave.

    . So TMI-Monthly friend makes it's grand appearance 45 minutes before the plumber is due to arrive. UGH!

    BUT Helloooooooooooooooooooo

    Nothing like the gates of plumber heaven dropped the hottest piece of .............................

    Man on my front door. 

    Yum multiplied by 100

    And the rear view is fine..oh so fine

    Gosh he wears his Levis well.

    Wish I could snap a pic to share with all the fine ladies here.

    (sorry..Jazzy has had to see me lament about this dude on 2 pages)

    LOL

    But seriously-he could be a model.

    DAYUM!

    Okies.....I am sweating

    Cam-hope your day went well

    Oh trust me ducky if I could have snapped a photo..I would have had to decide if I could share it over on peaceful contemplation.....might have stirred the hormone pot too much SillyHeart

    Anywho-he was not only cute, but rather soft spoken, nice smile, pretty teeth (I am a teeth girl) well teeth and butt!!! Totally sweet and an old school/old soul for his age.

    He doesn't trust online banking and still pays all of his bills by check, likes owning his home and living more rural and actually likes to cook-from scratch. Hello...do I know how to pick them. 

    I would say my first date went really well and I didn't have to leave the house!

    Yeah, I came through the diagnostic and ultrasound with flying colors.  I get to keep my left breast.  Gosh, I was so scared that by the time I left the hospital I had a headache , got home, took a Zanax  slept for 2 and half hours.   It's not Cancer but Stress that is going to do me in.

  • Hi all, I don't know how I missed this thread until now! I consider myself extremely introverted and pretty much always have been. I live in a small community and keep to myself but people who don't even know me seem to like to talk. It's a good thing I like being home because with all the snow and feeling crap, going out seems like way too much effort. This morning I woke up thinking I would get some chores done, make dinner and bake for lunches....I looked up what I wanted to make and now I'm too exhausted to do it. haha. I am having my fourth chemo next wednesday. I laughed at the comments of not wanting to talk in the chemo room. I couldn't agree more, I had a panic attack with all the people getting IVs and found a room next door they only use as an office with a bed and curtains, I am now going early and claiming that room.

    Dwill......good news....................for me it will be a "fall"..........I am a clumsy ass, and the Meds don't help, and I take nothing for pain.............it is the BP, BC meds that do it..........dizzy, off balance.........always saiy........if I got stopped by a cop..............I could never pass the DUI test........if they asked me to walk a straight line, I would put my hands out and say "cuff me"..........save all of us the time.......I ain't passing this test........LOL

    Welcome notso----name to long LOL --I don't think I've been out of my house since the Holidays except for a Dr. app't, but the weather has been brutal, I'm glad it doesn't bother me too...I'm fine with it. Welcome here we're a nice bunch. u'r still having Chemo I'm surprised u even looked up recipes--just don't worry and rest whenever u feel like it.

    Dwill GREAT NEWS--so hppy for u.

    OK piper ==splain Lucy--A plumber comes over, u start talking and he's gorgeous and u know him that well already??? Wow girl nothing stops u==good for u.

    I won 4.00 in the power ball, oh decisions should I fully retire, or share my wealth.?

    It's still rainy and crumby here, oh well , it'll be over soon.

  • sandpiper1
    sandpiper1 Member Posts: 508

    Yeah Dwill. Good news. I seem to remember you from another thread. Memory-what's it good for.

    LOL Ducky-I was stopped for a moving violation-whipped out my hospital ID. I couldn't show any leg as it was mid-winter and I was in scrubs and a winter jacket. I had that exhausted 13 hours look on my face. He let me go and handed me a safe driving pamphlet. ;) I'll send you my old ID.... Happy

    Oh Cammi-bet me if I were younger-he is so my type! I do not know why I always ended up with men who were very social-maybe it was a good compliment to me- you know-the whole let them shine in the light thing.

    The conversation flowed like a good bottle of red. LOL. They were brief-after all he had to fix 3 things in my house-I didn't follow him around I swear. Pinky swear!

    Cami I think you should hold a lottery and see who splits the pot of winnings with you!

    Only fair after all

    So Piper how many more pluming things will u break just for example?

  • sandpiper1
    sandpiper1 Member Posts: 508

    No need to break anything, my house is falling apart on me-I am already forming a list of things I suddenly remembered need checked and or fixed or replaced..... ....

    The list is growing.

    I am realizing that romancing the plumber is going to cost me big time....
