    Happy Easter to all my wonderful ladies..................love you all..............


    Joan......Chess !!!!!!!!!!!.......I'm not that smart......love the board games.......when they were little guys we use to play "TROUBLE"......loved that game too.........

    Remember I took care of Sean and Makayla from when they were little babies.......best part of my life....I miss it so much......Now I have Bobby, our new baby, and my grandaughter asked me if I want to take care of him 1 day a week for her........Not sure I am capable of doing that, but will sure give it a lot of thought..........for me when you snuggle and hold a baby it takes all of the "bad" out of your life.......so I will consider it.

    Started the Arimidex last night after being off the Devil Pill for 3 months.....we will see what happens.......

    Hugs everyone..........love you all.....

    Happy Easter.

    I am going to bed now so the bunny will come. I hope he brings me a month of great meals all prepared. That is almost better than chocolate.

    Thanks Lucy..............loved being able to do get on the floor with the kids......can't do it anymore, but I still try when we're down the game has to e played on the floor, but now unlike before....we don't do as much...

    The grandson in the picture right now is checking out colleges.........I just hope he doesn't go away.............everyone says "oh they need to get away, they need the college experience , they need to get on their own and be responsible......sorry......do not agree...

    He is a great kid......4.0 GPA.....and who knows what he will get to "room" with........it can turnn him around completely, and trust me that would be a tragedy..........his parent's put way too much time into that boy to have some "idiot roomate" come along and change him........could it happen, since he is strong in family and faith......I doubt it.......but guess what.......who knows for sure........

    Anyway thanks Lucy.......didn't mean to ramble........hugs to you and all the ladies this Easter........it is a beautifull day in the Philly suburbs........my daughter asked me to dinner, simple meal, but at least I won't be alone.....

    Our Easter has been shattered. DH's cousin is the first (and only so far) road fatality of the holidays. It was her mother who died two weeks ago. Yes I know she is a cousin once removed but the cousins were brought up together as my MIL and her SiL where both widowed early and DH and his siblings regard their cousins as older sisters. Jacque was so looking forward to a holiday as she had been Joyce's main care giver. The girls were in one car and the boys in the following vehicle. So her husband and son saw it happen.

    We are also trying to move MiL's stuff out of her house. I can't believe how much there is. And it is being complicated by DH's brother who lives in Spain and wants to keep everything. It's not much to store he says. Grrrrr. He is so unrealistic.

    My back unfortunately is a real problem. So many discs have collapsed and vertebrae not good. Never mind shouldn't complain too much.I have gone to bed and DH who is so tired trying to move stuff has gone out for a take away meal as neither of us have any energy.

    Love the pic FireKracker and Blondie I wish for once we might get snow.

    Ducky your pics are great and don't worry about your GS he will be fine.

    hugs to all

    (((Alyson))) my thoughts and prayers are with your family right now.
    And for you - to get relief from these health issues.  Sometimes I just don't see how we are supposed to get through times like you are going through.
    Life is so hard at times....

    FK, how wonderful that you got to spend time with your grandson and family.  That baby is so gorgeous...she looks like a little doll!  (but of course, look at her great-grandmother...)

    Ducky, I hope your Easter was peaceful and happy. 
    What is all I hear about this "snow"?  Not here, not unless I missed something.

    Time to catch a few hours sleep before work again. 

    Hugs to everyone...

    Hope you had a SPRINGY easter!

    It was my first day without a hand in six months!!!  Loved the wind blowing through my locks, all 7 of them!

    I was going to burn the beanies, a MASSIVE bonfire, however, we had a windy, heat warning. that would be like me start a large fire on a joyful Spring day.  So, I'll have the first next weekend!  Happiness, flowers and joy to all!!

    I am in Arizona, where it is a lovely 80 degree.  all my flowers are blooming.  I am laughing at the talk of snow.  When we see it, it never sticks, but it is lovely.

    I am in a mood today - I ended radiation last week, so the past five days, I have finally felt "well" and a sense of freedom.  However, they started calling yesterday and  I told the poor little med asst, I would not be coming back for the follow up with the rad dr, because what would the doctor do, except what she did for six weeks, say on my gosh, are you putting on enough lotion!

    so they must have told the evil onocologist I dont' want to come back and all I want to do is to tell them

    STFU!

     

    is that so terribly wrong?
