    Omg- to give an idea of how old my parents were- my mom, who died last October, 2 days before my diagnoses, would have turned 90 this past march. My dad, would have turned 94 yesterday.:(

    merliecat - OMG, at 47 I had boyfriends!  Well, they were men.  Younger men.  Young'uns seemd to like me.  I almost remember that!

    ducky  - I understand what you are saying about moving on without a thought.  I thought about it for the 23 years we were together and finally did it.  It took me about 2 years to get back to being "me" and not what I had to be to survive in that marriage.  Some people have said, "well, the love of your life is still out there".  But what if that one WAS the love of my life and I just couldn't live with him?  Whoops!  deep thoughts by the caffeine deprived.  I'll be better soon!

    Philoosophy don't think so deeply, it sounds sad to me. But u could be right. And maybe ther is someone for everyone, but I think they might have been in u'r life while u were wasting time with someone else. So who knows.

    It was raining hear earlier...turned the air off....hope I don't have to turn in back on...it is 70 something...

    ducky what is the MRI for?

    I am 59....my oldest is 38...

    am so pissed off what do I have all these kids for...my car has been broken for 2 weeks, NOBODY has offered to help get the battery out and take me to get a new one...they don't have to pay for it....they except for my DD2 Jamie, has asked if I need anything....I asked DIL if I can use her car wednesday while it sits in the parking lot to go to chemo, she said yes, so that is when I will get things that I need such as milk, CVS, etc....that I why I freaked on my DS1 the other day, I asked to borrow his car and of course that is a problem...took them to the store the other day used my food stamps to the tune of 129.00 and no thank you from either one of them, won't happen again, well that is what I said when it happened the last time....well I don't ask them for anything....they never go to chemo, don't go to the drs. they are just annoying.. Thanks for listening will STFU now!!

    Merlcat - I'm a year older than you. I'm not the baby any more.



    I finally had a good night's sleep. I took a benedryl and an Ativan and slept peacefully until my bladder screamed, " Get up!" I would love to go back to bed.



    Today I want to spend some time in my garden. I haven't started to plant. Right now all I have is rhubarb. I need tomatoes, basil, beans, and broccoli.

    My thoughts only---but I think when we act pretty normal, our kids are so used to what we did before they might not think that u realy having a hard time. Since we have always taken care of our own business in the past that looked easy to them  and w're still looking OK, well then how sick can u be?

    I mean u hate to yell u know what I've been thru and how somedays I can;t even move??? so u never say much. My only saving grace was they would talk to my Drs. instead of me cuz i always seemed pretty positive but they knew things before I paid attention to things. I always made light of everything and different opertions and more chemo and on and on--otherwise they'd be the same way--I was mostly a single mom and took care of everything so they wouldn't know. Well that's no longer the case and they see it.

    So in a way u can't blame them and if u'r younger they still think of u as the woman who can handle whatever comes up. They don't get it. That's all, so if u haven't already maybe u can have a family thing and resly talk to them and explain what is really going on with u.?????

    I don't know that's how I think. I think like a squirrel--I might find and bury alot of acorns but I hav no idea where they are when I want them. So.....

    LOL!! Jan, I think it all started in California with the happy meds.  Well, I might talk the talk but don't walk the walk.  I am as straight as a weed or should I say a blade of grass.  Never even smoked reg cigs.  Now, I might still sneak a glass of wine still.  Hey, if i am come to Cali, I am going to look you up.  Had a boyfriend up there once and use to fly to LA several times a year--but that was at least 5 years ago--and who knows where he is at now.  OOPs got off the subject.  So nice to have you as a buddy, Jan!

    Just got back from PT and LE massage.  Ahhhhhhh!  Good news is that only I am feeling swelling.  No pitting or the other stuff that they look for.  Yippee!  I will keep on wearing the compression T and tank until I get back to N Platte to see the measuring person and the bra person.  Good lord, how many does it take!!??  Oh, and best of all, my frozen shoulder is almost unfroze!  I am reaching things on the top shelves in my kitchen.  Of course, being 5'10" makes that easier for me.  Tongue Out

    Another beautiful day here.  I went to our lovely local bakery and had lunch with sis and BIL and the group they lunch with daily.  Had a delicious Sunny Meadow sandwich.  Chicken salad with lettuce and tomato on toasted raisin bread.  YUM!

    GmaFoley -  You're beautiful!  Let us know if you need a break from all of that stuff. How do you ever sleep? We will  help you out.  I will take the right arm stuff for a week.  Anyone want to pick up the mask, other arm or torso?  C'mon, we can do it!

    No I do not count posts. Its on my computer how many Ive missed since I logged out  and last.ha. Well today was a true stfu day for me. I was driving along minding my own business and this guy comes up behind me right on my butt. Starts honking the horn. Im thinking wth? Get to the stop light and he pulls up beside me and flicks his fingers at me like Im supposed to speed up for him. I roll my window down and say whats your problem? He just looks at me and flicks his fingers again. So I say oh kiss my a--. Now I do not drive slow, but I do drive the speed limit.He really pissed me off. I really wanted to tell him to stfu, but I didnt.....

    I thought I'd show up early and have a leisurely read before i leave my office....HA!
    This thread is on hyper steroids and isn't going to stop any time soon...
    Can't wait to get home and choose a project for the night when I would hve worked 4.5 hours.  One project I thought of is to do nothing.  Another is to sleep.
    More realistically, I could clean the basement; the garage; the attic; the spare room...or weed the new lawn or organize photos; or actually read a book all the way through;  or learn to cook; or watch the tube and become a movie critic...or read all the pages here I missed.  So many choices, so few days that I would have worked that I now have to find something to do (14, actually)
