    Mae, WOOT! WOOT! Fist pump. Good news!

    50s, look at all you Ladies Who Lunch! Looks like you had a great time together! Anytime I get to eat and I don't have to cook or wash up, it's a great time!

    Micmel, missing you. No pressure. Just, like, where the hell are you? But again, you know, no pressure. None at all Hugs.

    Hi Ladies~ I have come up for air and so much appreciaethe kind words and concern. I had ten personal messages in my in box. Thank you for caring. More than you'll ever know. Loosing Patty hit me hard. And then I just got a terrible cold, and was down for almost two weeks. Just feeling a little better now. I'm sorry I didn't check in, I was sleeping mostly, and was thinking it may have even been that damn flu again. Love you all. Thanks for even caring. Much love ~M~

    loved the group picture. Extremely jealous. But ever so happy to see those beautiful smiles together, what an amazing thing to have happen. Such warmth and love. It a rarity to see four women together from the boards/threads. You’re all so important and special. 💙💙💙💙💙warms my heart to see. Hello to Bigbhome’s DH. Wonderful afternoon it must have been.

    ❤️❤️~M~

    Hello Micmel, hope you shake that bug soon!

    Mae, you are too young to remember, but for some reason your welcome back picture instantly brought to mind the theme song from Welcome Back Kotter. Wow. I am so old. I'm going to have to Google that song now.

    Runor, I saw a few episodes on reruns, lol. I watched many reruns growing up, I especially loved gidget, pippy longstocking, the Munsters and the monkees.

    So happy to see you back on the boards! You are definitely missed when you’re not here! Totally get the loss of Patty, she has been on my mind so much. Tough loss to deal with. I’m still dragging myself out of my funk, slow but sure. I’m glad you’re feeling better and hope that you continue to do so.

    Welcome back Micmel. We were definitely worried because it’s not like you to not post at all. I hope you shake that nasty bug soon. Has anyone got a flu shot yet? I didn’t but I plan to.

    It was great seeing you ladies in your lunch picture.

    Thanks for the cartoon Mae!

    Good to see you, Micmel. Was getting worried. You'd mentioned a drive to the beach so I had hoped you were on a fun trip instead of fighting a cold.

    Yay for good report, Mae!

    Tanya, I want a flu shot but MO says no. I think he's wrong! We might have our first quarrel.Shocked

    Welcome back sweet micmel. Don’t. Ever. Do. That. Again. Winking Worried us to death!!! I’m almost tempted to force you to give me your cell number so I can freaking text you myself if that ever happens again. Much love... xox

    Divine~There you are. How are you darling. How is your foot!? It's so nice to see you. I was just asking about you... hope all is well with your world!

    I've been asked to participate in a Bra decorating contest through my plastic surgeons office. I love to create things. So this came at a great time. I needed a project. I am having a blast creating this plan for this bra. I have begun it and am working on it everyday! I have to have it completed before October 24 th and I get to go to a luncheon with DH to see all the entries and see who the winner is. I'm not sure what the prize is... I don't really care... I just love creating things. I'm dedicating it to my DH and the theme. Is “Endless love and support" so it being a Bra. The support is that and the unrelenting love from my sweet DH. He's is the air Ibreathe. I'll post pics as I go along. I am hand stitching and using gems. It really helps my mind. Hope everyone sleeps well. much love. ~M~

    Lynne, Claudia, and Lynne- so enjoyed your company on Wednesday. I am so amazed at the collective strength of the MBC sisters. We all have our way of coping with this and deserve credit for being strong, strong women! Claudia-I hope you and DH have a fabulous time during the remainder of your trip. Lynne(50s)-have yourself a nice long cozy sleep and stand by for Xeloda to kick some cancer butt! Lynne(Man)-I loved your beautiful scarf and shirt that you wore yesterday. Let's have those flipping tumor markers go down and pesky WBC's go up!! Enjoy your upcoming trip.

    On the road again today. Saw MO, which was fine, then service for my car. Back home for Boggle game with 3 neighborhood gals, curriculum night at grandson's school, then Boy Scouts. I'm ready for a quiet day!

    Micmel-Ugh on the bad cold-seems to be something going around here. DD and DGS both had it. It sure got our attention when you dropped off the thread for a few days! Glad you are back!

    Divine-nice to see you!

    Mae-I loved the Munsters and the Monkees as well!

    Hope everyone is comfy and at peace tonight.

    Love, Mary Jane

    Good morning. Didn't fall asleep last night until 1215 😳😳 now coffee has me ok until about noon, then I'll crash! I'm starting to think that taking a shower is like a full time job. Seriously! All you do it just stand there. Effort effort effort. Then I'll be tired today but I'll be aworking on my bra! It really is fun. Last night time just flew by!

    Hi Gracie my girl. Thank you for the support while I was sick. You and Chelle are wonderful! All the personal messages meant so much to me. I felt very loved. And missed. I haven't felt like that in a long time, my family sucks. (Not immediate family, just father step monster sister, One brother etc) DH and kids are fine. You ladies make me feel like thisreally is our home way from home. I love that about this thread! Ty vm for even caring (Mae) (JKL) (50's lynne) (Shelia Marie)(stillivin) (footprintsangel) (MissBianca) a special thank you! (Tanya) (Muddling) (GP)Thanks also

    I don't mind exchanging cells with anyone that would want to, Ive often thought about it, but never want to over step. Love you guys! ~M~

    Ladies today is my day to shine. OMG. I do not like to be in the spotlight. I was asked to be a model for Say Yes to Hope. The catwalk is tonight. Yikes. I think the pampering will be fun. But, trying to make a strapless gown fit on a one boobed lady is going to be a challenge. By far, my biggest challenge is stage fright. Pray for me to not freeze up like a deer in the headlights!

    Go Grannax!!!! I know you'll light up the stage. There seems to be a talent in your family. I am thinking of you today. You go girl. Pink boa in hand. Rock that cat walk! “I'm too sexy for my shirt too sexy for my shirt, so sexy it hurts!" Whhhoooohooooooo! Hugs ~M~

    Right back at you Gracie🌷💗!

    Hello to Lynnwood, hope you're having a better day today my friend. 😊

    Much love to all ~M~

    Asking for prayers/ positive vibes for Tuesday. Having a cystoscopy and scared to death. I’ll be under general anesthesia. Lynne has made me feel considerably better with her first hand experience with the procedure and the stent afterwards. This procedure will allow the doctor to visualize my entire urinary tract including the kidney so that they can see why it remains swollen. I’m just concerned because I currently have no symptoms/ problems whatsoever and hoping this does not open up a can of worms. I think I’ll feel much better when it’s finally over and I have some answers. Cancer is not for sissy’s , that’s for sure. We are some tough, strong ladies here and I’m going to draw from all of your strength.

    Absolutely will be praying, Lynnwood! Both that it goes very easily and that you get good answers from it!!!

    Lynnwood~Better wear a jacket with deep pockets. We will try to keep down the noise, but I can't promise anything. You are in my heart and in my mind. I will be sending strength and good vibes that it is just inflammation. Please let us know ASAP! Love you friend! ~M~
