    Oh she yelled!  She posted in CAPS!!!  In BOLD PRINT!!!    Little Princess, you know we are always here....  and YES, you might not know anything for a damn week!  You know how THAT goes?  What town are you in that only has one horse? 

    Do they have gas stations there, and like.....stores?  I'll bet a Walmart.... right? 

    Your Mum and her Sister sound like fun Ariom!   My Mom was kind of straight-laced too!  But she really had a temper!  Must have been the Irish in her...Wink  So like me, I married an Italian..... You are not allowed any thing resembling a temper when you are married to an Italian, because that is reserved just for them!  They know this....    That is the law....Wink

    Hey Shaneoak, a week out of surgery, you vent all you want! Don't apologise here, we all know just what it is like to feel this way.

    You rail against the insensitive bastards all you want, we are all here with you laughing at their stupidity.

    You said it!   When I am not crying, I am snapping at everyone! Duh! Yeah, Absolutely that's normal!

    That was my world a few weeks ago too.

    It really does get better after the surgery. It was "NOTHING" like what I had built up in my scared brain.

    Shaneoak - I am 2 1/2 years from diagnoses and I still get angry when someone says - "Well, you look good."  WTF!  Did I look like hell before.  That is when I want to say STFU!!!!  Vent all you want - we know what you are going through.

    Thanks ladies, for the comments on my hair!

    I used to colour it too till it got too white and the regrowth was through almost overnight.

    Just wash it now occasionally with a deep blue shampoo that keeps the yellow at bay and use Jonathan Hair products from the US the rest of the time.

    Scottie My mom had more energy when she was 85 than I had in my 50's--Her and my aunt went and did so much all the time--they were a pair and my aunt was the one with the mouth--loud too, but all Italian words--she thought no one understood Fungu--they were a goofy pair.

    And Ariom u hair is georgeous, mine came bavk all silver--I was dying it forever so I didn't really know--I've left it for now but I want to get it foiled with some color.

    Granny the hospital is like over 2 hrs??? OMG mine is 1 mile--it's been super easy on me that way. How exhausting to worry and then to travel--The words out of my mouth would be constantly spewing.

    Chevy u r an instigator with Granny and I think it's hysterical. LOL

    Oh she is such a little brat!  Must be why I love her so much.....She just makes the hair on my arms stand up when she really gets going, Ha, ha!  Kantalope, if you have anything resembling a stomach by the time this is all over, it will be a miracle.  This stress and worry is so BAD for you! 

    If I lived close to you like Liz, I would come yank you out of your place, bundle you up, and we would go have coffee somewhere.... and just talk.  Your Son is in good hands, just believe that.  He will be alright....  and with you by his side, that's all he needs.... so stfu. 

    Ariom, your hair IS beautiful!  I'll have to get some of that "blue" shampoo for DH!!  Can you tell me what the name is and from where?  He gets this pinkinsh, orange cast on his hair after he washes it, and I don't know WHY!!   My hair is always brown, mostly.... Same as it was when I was 18... but I started getting grey at 20, Ha!  So I've been coloring it since then.  I'm still not allergic to the color yet, even though I use a #20 cream developer....  And you said f###wit????? Ha, ha, haaaaaaa!  And I use Dick-head all the time! 

    But has anyone heard of cluster f????  The young gals where I used to work used to describe a situation like that...  THEN they told me what that meant...  We all just cracked up!   My Nook.... my e-reader had such a situation...  I was so mad at it!  It showed I had 136 books downloaded onto it.... MOST of them duplicates!!!  And phone calls, and live chat were worthless!  FINally I got a gal who helped me "de-activate" it, to factory settings, then my NEIGHBOR girl, pulled up her wi-fi connection, and got it re-registered, and IT WORKS!!!  MY 59 books are there!!!  Miracle!!!  Cluster f averted.  (till I find a new one.)

    Camille.... yes the Italian words....  That's all I ever heard!  And they would not tell me what they were saying.  Bitches!   The one thing that really hurt me and my DH, was when my drunken FIL would get on his rant about REAL men had SONS!  How ANYone could "swing an ax" but it took a REAL mean to "chop logs".... I guess that meant have girls..... like we did.  One night, in front of the whole fu****g family, he said it for the last time!  I stood up, threw the towel on the table started crying and said "I AM SICK AND TIRED OF YOU ALWAYS SAYING YOUR SON IS NOT MAN ENOUGH TO HAVE SONS!  THAT YOU HAVE ONLY ONE SON THAT IS A MAN BECAUSE HE HAD BOYS!  WE HAD DAUGHTERS, YOUR GRANDDAUGHTERSAND IF YOU EVER WANT TO SEE THEM AGAIN, YOU WILL SHUT UP!"  Side note.... I didn't have the sense to tell him to STFU!

    At that moment I hated that whole family.... for always letting him get away with it, for never saying anything, and it hurt ME for my husband and my Daughter's.   You know, it was my right to NOT like them.  They were a miserable lot.  Only I always gave in.... taking care of that MIL when the old man passed... (I'm sure from just being mean)  I served my time....Now I can say what I want.... because they're gone!  GDMF's! 

    Little Princess, where were you when I needed you?  I could have used your b***s, Ha!   Okay, I'm done.... Love you guys! xoxoxoxo

    Good Morning ladies--now wasn't that pleasant.

    Chevy I've gotta say good for u, for saying that---we did not have a typical Italian family in a way.--Altho born in Italy my Dad never believed superstitions--We always talked english in the house cuz my parents thought it was just right and they were the kindest carziest people ever. All we did was have fun when we grew up and as adults. My dad's big thing was school--and college and beyond--the boys did it and listened and did well, of course my sister and I were fighting all the way and didn't o. We were the stupid ones And my dad adored my mom and she had a wonderful heart like him. And every Sunday we had a houseful of family my crazy aunt and her kids that's why we are so close today--it was our moms' AND I was the youngest so I was always my Dad's baby and favorite and nobody was jealous-we'd laugh about it. And my Dad swore like crazy but never in front of my mom, unless he was fixing something in the house, then she'd say don't listen, sure mom we can't hear him. hahaha

    Hi Chevyboy!

    Thanks so much! There are many brands of Blue Shampoo around. I have tried most and they are pretty much of a muchness. I really like Aveda Blue Malva, but it is pricey. Remember, I am in Australia, so have different brands to you. I am sure you would get some at your local drug store. You don't use it all the time or you might get that "Blue Rinse" look, just every week or two, or when the hair gets a dullness or yellow cast.

    Komen Race for the "cure" - for the "cure"

    The federal government - for all the natural remedies out there that you won't investigate and legalize, YOU SUCK!!!!

    Kantalope..... I could just see you!  Was smoke coming out of your ears?  I don't blame you.... Just stay with him little girl!  No-one will behave unless you are with him.  Damnit!!!   What exactly are they going to do?  Sounds like he is in good hands..... 

    As for the Italians.... Yes, I know....  I was really not accepted into that family.... but it didn't damn matter.  DH and I, and our two little girls were all I wanted.   Funny though, as mean and indifferent as they all were, it was ME and my half italian SIL that took care of the "Mother" when she became too crippled to cook, or even move, etc!   We moved her to assisted living, nursing homes, cooked for her, and listened to her whine about life.   She never even ONCE took my girls on a picnic, or to the park, or even shopping!   Why was I so nice to her???  And her drunk husband? 

    I Had to be because I respected them as my Husbands parents.... even though the old man screwed his Son's and wife out of every loose dime!   Spent his youngest Sons monthly wages while he was in Viet Nam!  (His name was the same, so he cashed the checks)   Even sold all his Son's car parts while he was in the war!    Yes, he was f****** worthless.    My in-laws were worthless....  Oh well. 

    My Step-Grandmother was German.... "Mengers" was her last name, before she married my Dad's Father, and raised his two little kids.  She was the hardest working woman I have ever known....  They ALL were in those days, because they didn't have any money.  She made all their clothes, saved EVERYthing.... used to ask neighbors for their old clothes to make her step son & Daughter clothes for school.   I learned so much from her!  How to save everything, and use it somehow!   I still do, Ha! 

    But I got to take care of her, after Grandpa died.... she had always been so mean and cantankerous!  But she had a heart attack, and wound up never going back to her house!  I moved her into assisted living and ran down the alley every day to see her, before I went to work.  I watched as she slowly lost her mind to Alzheimers.....  I had her little dog.... used to take her over to see her, but then she forgot her dog was hers!  Forgot she had a Son and Daughter!  But it was alright, because it was like she was "mine"....   I would take care of her.... Help feed her her meals, even give her showers....  One time the home had a piano player, and he was playing "Let me call you Sweetheart".... and I helped her up and I danced with her....  tears running down my face.....  Geez, what beautiful memories.....  I'm really lucky. 

    Okay little Princess Kantalope.... if you need me to come out there and help you open up a can of whup-ass I will!    All of us will! 

     Fun just remembering with you gals..... xoxoxoxo

    Granny - That really sucks and I can see you foaming at the mouth.  Glad you did get in though.

    Today has really sucked for me in a big way.  My favorite uncle passed away. My aunt and uncle spend the winter months with us in deep South Texas.  My heart is really breaking. I already really miss him.  That is my STFU for the day.

    What a great read Chevyboy, just like talking to a girlfriend over coffee.

    I relate to a lot of what you are saying. We have Colin's Mum just down the road from us in a Nursing Home, she is in a bad  way with Alzheimers, we brought her with us when we moved here, and my Mum had terrible Dementia before she passed.

    Just noticed you're from Denver, I love the States, I spent a lot of time there because I worked for United Airlines here in Australia for 11 years. My girlfriend and I used to always have our hand up to join any and all committees so we could get another trip to the US for the meetings. We also did lots of training there and at the base in Hongkong.

    It was the best fun, we'd add a couple of leave days to the trip so we could spend more time, sometimes we'd go to Vegas on the way home, or a side trip to Hawaii. I won an award for being a volunteer for disabled sailing here in Oz, they sent me to Denver to a luncheon with the then CEO. I stayed at the United Hotel on the United grounds. I saw squirrel for the fist time there, we don't have them here. Everyone was laughing at me being so interested in these little critters, and warning me that they carry disease.

     The boss expected me to go to the lunch and then fly back here that night, I don't think so! So I had another day there of retail therapy. Absolutely loved it!

    Some of my best life memories happened in the US, pity that United decided to offload all of us and outsource our jobs. I was only about a year out from early retirement which would have given me lifetime flying benefits. Darn it!

    Some of this was a hard read Grannie we all pray this will be well taken care of .

    Jo I'm truly sorry about u'r uncle (((JO))) Loosing someone we love is heartbreaking.

    Cherl I agree with everythin u said--it's getting worse too.

    When my mom was alive she read the paper everyday and most of the time I didn't understand all the aruements about politics and my Mom would explain everybody's view point on the subject. Her mind was good til the day she died--to good- she knew it was time and we were all so close--my 2 sisters in-law were not Italian, but it made no difference and they treated my mom wonderfully and she did them too. And my dad was truly my buddy--he was blind and drank his wine everyday and never got mean--I never saw my dad mean--he was a great man in our family and funny like crazy.Never meaning to be, just funny. So my memories of them are always great--I've been blessed.

    Here I go memories late at night hahaha I'm just took some pills to sleep hope I will.  Note all.

    So sorry for so many losses & so much angst. All of the cherished memories you gals have been sharing brings your loved ones to life as I read.

    What a gift to someone like me who has very little to share in that way for many reasons. But I have a lot of good DS stories!

    That said.....today's STFU goes out to my ex & all dead beat dads/or moms.

    Wishing everyone a wonderful day of memory making.

    Worked all night......going to catch some Zs
