Kathy, glad you a got a little break from the heat and you and mom had a cool evening out!
Gail, sorry you are feeling down in the dumps, you certainly deserved that $20 glass of wine, and I know you enjoyed every last drop! Hope you are feeling better today. Have you told your DH how you feel? I mean really sat down and talked about it? And yes, 50 is the magic number for the heiny scope!
NM, and Mitch..........good girls for making those phone calls! That was a great idea on your part Mitch!
NM, if you do get the courage up to do the heiny scope, which you should, don't tell your mom about it, then you won't have to listen to her! Such a cute honey do list for Kitty, and her hubby will do just that, he is a sweetheart.
Got a short message from our DorK, she says she is done and already anticipating what she hopes, is her last surgery. Hopefully that Blue Lightening will entice her for a visit!

Lori, So glad you heard from our Dorothy!!! Been worried about her, and hope she will also feel like coming to the HTL soon. Please give her our best! Good advice to NM to go ahead and have the heiny-scope and not tell mom. Although I don't think she wants the needle either, that goes along with it. And ideas on that? Maybe that $20 glass of wine first? Lori, I just realized our bc dx was just 5 days apart! Mine was 4/2/08 and yours was 3/27/08!
Gail, OF COURSE we can have *several* rounds here! Like Lori, I am also sad that you are feeling so blue.Better to have the "blues" in the blue curacao in the Blue LIghtning dwink! But Lori also suggested REALLY talking to your DH, and I also hope you can do that. I mean your 50th b'day is a BIG ONE and should be celebrated however you would like!!! On mine, my mom and I went parasailing (she had just turned 80....very close birthdays so we like to celebrate together when we can). It was on one of those "private" islands in the caribbean that the cruise ships own, so there wasn't TOO much traffic on the water! We used to cruise a lot more than we do now. I do hope you get to have a fun party!!! When is your birthday?
NM, Oh I love your cartoons!!! Esp the one about the dog to be named "Monica"! Also liked how you posted a pic of our lounge chairs by the pool at the HTL. You know, we used to post pics all the time of how it looked here, or what we were adding. Until you posted this pic, I didn't realize how much I missed those pictures! When we post a cool picture like that, it feels like we are *almost* there. Wow...already called 3 therapists....hopefully the 4th call will be the one! Wishing you will find a perfect fit with your new therapist!!! AND, wishing you will FIND a new therapist!
Kristy, Hope one of the yorkie puppies will be the right one for you! And then, hoping you will post a pic so we can see the cute furbaby too.
Gonna take my mom to her early hair appt. Poor dear has tried to get there 3 times, and gotten lost, BUT there is a detour, and when her stylist called to give ME the directions it sounded confusing to me, also. So I had to convince her to let me take her. I think getting lost really made her feel badly as she even told my dad on the phone last night that she would like to be in HI. I know she misses him and hates to be alone, BUT for her to say that sorta had me feeling down all night. I am hoping today she will be back to herself and will want to keep staying here till her scheduled return to HI. We also plan to paint together soon, in her sunny sunroom....she has her easel mostly made and ready to assemble, will be 6' tall. edit:just called her and she sounded like her normal happy self, and didn't understand why I thought she might want to return to HI (she does forget a lot of what she says!)....yay, I am glad!
Gonna enjoy our Blue LIghtning dwinks by the pool in one of those inviting lounge chairs!!! ChEARS!

Astorm - OK, why no party?Really?? You need a friend to set him straight on that. All my life I have always hated and run from anything to do with my birthday. Probably cause only had one "real" party as a kid and it was a disaster. My birthday is in the summer and we were usually at the beach so finally my parents set up a party to go to the New at that time Six Flags. I was so excited. We got there and got on the first ride and it started to rain. I had a cast on my leg so my dad had to carry me home and the rest of the kids stayed and had a blast. I just remember crying the whole way home. Anyway... my on/off SO actually did something pretty good last year for my 50th. He did a whole surprise party even got my sisters (not really needed but?) and BIL to come up from FLA. I had no idea and when it happend I was actually horrified but then was able to relax enough to really enjoy it. So yes you DO need a party!!! Send us his email and we will happily bombard him with reasons.... OK, so if he won't help what about friends or your kids?
Lori, thanks so glad to know DorK is alright!
Kristy - Oh how adorable - please post a picture when you get your puppy - I don't know if I've ever seen a puppy Yorkie. How sweet. I'm still going to post baby pictures one of these day....
Kathy- I think your Mom may have been embarrassed and just upset about the whole thing. I don't think she really wants to go back even though I'm sure she misses and worries about your Dad. I can only imagine how upsetting that would be. But hey she must be doing pretty well to even try and drive herself. My sisters won't even drive anywhere when they come to town and they used to live here what now 7 years ago. I'm so glad you all are able to enjoy painting and such. Finally you are doing something for pleasure instead of being the repair queen! So..... when are we going to see some of this art work? I remember you posted some of your Mom's work a while back, yes?
Funny cartoon! I like that, Kathy. also love NM's. Well I will just say even though my colonoscopy last year wasn't fun - I'm glad I did it as they found a huge polop and I would have been really angry to have that get me after everything I've gone through with BC. I "get" to go back in 3 years! No history of Colon cancer in my family at all. So, NM - pleeeese...... We love you too much. So once you have the therapist apt talk to him/her about your worries about the colonoscopy and hopefully they can help you through to make that call! But we are all here for you as well, but then you know that!
Kathy- how far away are you from me? I never can remember - I want to say it is further than I think it is and I know I have asked before.... sigh.

Claire, you are tooo funny! I am doing the Kegels, but the other "action"? Comes in fits and starts! HA With so little hair, 3 scars across my chest (lumpectomy, SNB, and chemo port), depression and anxiety the last six months, I have not exactly been in the mood. However, with good drugs, more sleep, and a (more than) patient husband, things are improving in that area. So I will keep that in mind, realizing that the medical benefits are as good as the psychological/emotional ones! Thanks for putting it in perspective.

Stanzie, When my DD lived in Douglasville, she could get here in 2.5-3 hrs! But it would take us 3.5-4 hrs, and you are a bit further than that, so maybe 4-4.5 hrs? With the time change, my DD would get here before I would even be out of bed! So she could come for a visit and shop and still get home when the kids got home from school! But then again, she DOES drive fast!
Just a quick pop in to the lounge. Got home a few minutes ago, and will be heading back to my mom's for happy hour in a bit. Her neighbors gather at the pool at 5:30 every Friday for happy hour, and although there is shade, it is toooooo hot to be outside! Had a fun day, and she was back to her normal energetic, fun self! But those forgetful days are horrid.
Dork, waiting to hear from you! Heather, hope you are still doing well! And Junie, sending hugs and gentle healing thoughts your way! And Beans, how did that client appt go? Chrissy, hope you are doing well too. Love you girlz!
Take care everyone, and lets have a fun pau hana tonight!

Hi GIRLS! I am popping in and having a wee widdle dwink, yay, its fried-dey! YEAH.
Thanks you girls for your good thoughts - I was sprung from the hospital last night and so far so good, blah blah bal, I've heard it before and all I can do is wait. I am ready with my Q-ball, JP x 3, and one JD and diet.I am SO glad this surgery is done - I had a hard time dealing with the unknown of the lat flap. It sure does hurt but I think I am doing well as compared to when they first woke me up. I had a nice room mate. She was flown to the hospital for a spinal cord injury. I got to know her and her family. I felt well cared for and know I am on the mend.
Lori, thanks for reporting in and passing on my messagE. Let's drink! I read what you all wrote but am still a wee will too loopt-dee dooptity-dee from the morphine. Good stuff, indeed.
CheerZ!
~~Big Sigh~~
~ and a round o hugs for each of you girls

Whew! TGIF. This has been a lonnnng week. Almost didn't come home last night because I just slept for a few hours and got back in the car. Sorry i was a little whiny. I'm just upset about the party. I've given DH several parties and I have only had one birthday party in my whole life. It was when I was 13 and I remember every detail. Not sure if it comes from my southern mother or my Catholic father but I don't like to make a fuss about myself. When my SIL was terminally ill she had a big 50th bday party for herself and then another at 51... unforrtunately she died days before and we had the party as a memorial with everything just as she planned it. I don't think this is my last birthday but I know there are a finite number of birthdays left and I don't want to skip them anymore. DH isn't really telling me why but he acts really put out every time I mention it and we had a row about it last week. Not only do I have to give myself a party but I have to fight him for it? He was a little upset when I called it off because he had already invited several people I don't even know (after he told me to keep it small). Talking about it would be a great idea but he is talking around whatever his issue is and I get the feeling there is something he doesn't want to discuss. So poor weepy me. I'll get over it I'm sure... always do!
In the meantime, I returned my sister's call (!) and she is trying to find work (2 hours from here) and wondering if she could do what I do cuz she heard I work when I want to and make lots of money. I laughed aloud! She wants to get together and discuss it. I think I'll begin with the concept of "ease of entry" ... anything that pays well and requires no commitment is not going to pay well for very long because everyone (and her sister) will want to do it.
Raising my glass to all those recovering from surgery this week! And to those of us who can't help but remember that it wasn't so long ago... Cheers!

May I say that I went out to lunch with my oncologist yesterday and we did have a glass of wine each. I asked him about the risk of this and he said it was nothing at all. He totally did not worry about social drinking. Just sayin!! We had a fun time at lunch. Cancer sucks, but it hasn't been all bad. Lots of new and interesting friends

Howdy Beacon and welcome to the HTL (Hot Tatties Lounge). Here all the drinking and eating is virtual and of course calorie free........that's the best part. Hope you pop in often!
Dotty!!!!!!! I'm so glad to hear that you are home and mending........popping the Champagne in celebration...................POP!!!!............Lookout!....phew, I almost hit you with the cork. I told the boys that I wanted the best crystal flutes that HTL had to drink from and I guess they had to hunt down in the cellar but they have bought these....I hope you like them!
Hear to happy healing with little discomfort!......cachinck!!!Kristy, I just love little dogs and Yorkies are just precious........just be aware that they can be a bit yappy if you don't stop it as a puppy.
Heather and Junie I sure hope you are both recovering well and hope to see you back here pretty soon.
NM, love, love, love your posts in pics....lol.......they always tell the story well!
Kathy, Claire, Stanzie, Lori and anyone else I may have missed, (sorry for that), hoping you are not all melting and that your weather breaks and becomes a little more moderate soon.
Love n hugs to all. Chrissy TITZ UP!!!!!

Kathy, glad mom is doing better and you are Happy Camper now. Pretty close diagnosis dates, never noticed that either. Just not a date I care to remember, think about or celebrate! Love your "Secrets to a long happy marriage". Ha ha ha, I see the heat is getting you again or the Blue Lightning. It's Kristy getting the puppy, not Karen....LMAO!
DorK, glad all is going good. I'll slip a little Jack in the percotini fountain, for when you are done with Mr.Morph. And I forgot about those damned Pratt brothers, don't let those cheating SOB's hang around long.
Chrissy, beautiful flutes and sure glad that CorK dint hit DorK!
Stanzie, I remember the surprise birthday you had, but so sorry about the others. I spent my 50th on a plane, heading to my cancer center for chemo the following day!
And NM, of course we wish you could get past the "needle". That must be an awful feeling. What about using that numbing cream, forget at the moment what it's called. I used it on my port, before getting stuck for chemo. Never felt a thing!
Gail, hope you are doing ok, I see you popped in and then disappeared!
Stanzie, here is a Yorkie. They are really really cute, and don't look much different when grown. They are a small furbaby.

LOOK OUT!

Really??? that actually is not at all what I thought a Yorkie looked like. I thought they had long kind of silky hair, wonder what I'm thinking of. That pictures is truely adorable!
Love Champagne but I'ver got to start being ever so good as I have gained more weight! More even... I so hate that! I know just need to think about Clair and her easy days of 20 mile bike rides.... sigh!
Off this morning to a Funeral of one of the choir members. He was only in his 60's - pancreatic cancer and his wife has stage IV lung cancer also in her 60's. Very sad... hate cancer!
DorK!! So glad you are back and doing OK>
Beacon- you went to lunch with your Onc?? Wow, I've never gone to lunch or anything with any of my doc's. You are lucky!
Chrissy! Always wonderful to see you !

Oh Lori, Can I still blame it on the heat, or the dwinks??? LOL....thank you SO much for setting me straight (I went back and corrected it)....don't know what has gotten into me, and the darn " loungette check" is NOT working! So sad to have spent your 50th heading for the cancer cente for chemo...that sucks! But very glad you got the treatments and are doing well. That is something to celebrate! Love your comment ",,,glad that CorK dint hit DorK!" Very cute play on words. Glad one of us is thinking straight!!!
DorK, I forgot about the Pratt Brothers too, those little $hits! Not fun having them around, and hope you get rid of them soon. So, so, so very nice having you back from surgery and on the mend! Hoping to get a long post from you soon! Do take care and don't overdo.
Stanzie, So sad having to go to a funeral. And with the widow in bad health too. Very sad. I don't read the paper till days later, and missed knowing about my late DH's former SIL passing away. I would have gone to her funeral as I always liked her, as well as her kids and grandkids (she was a young 70), but was taken by cancer. I felt bad to have missed it. Its nce you are going to the funeral, and I know his widow will be comforted to know you cared enough to be there. Very sad though.
Going out in the heat shortly...ugghhhh....but stuff I want to work on. DH is in Tunica, and the BJ tournament starts soon. Will check in with all you chicas later....not even going to try to mention everyone as my track record lately has not been good! Going to enjoy some of the champagne Chrissy rounded up, in support of DorK, Junie, and Heather...."clink, clink"....ahhhhhhhh.....hic!
Kathy (I think)

DorK.....so glad it is over, and really hoping you are feeling much, much better. Not that there is anything worth doing outside with all the heat anyway. So rest up and feel better.
I did a bit of resale retail therapy, getting a wool sleeveless sweater that actually does something for all my hard work (Miu Miu by Prada) and a Jean Paul Gautier T that says "I love Casanova". Thought ever so much more fun than "J'adore Dior" which they also had. I may actually get to wear it as daytime temps will be in the 70s a few days this coming week. Got both for $50 as they had been marked down several times from their $99 original price (each).
Then hit the wine bar. Not the Thursday night $4 glasses of wine deal, but you can get good Cabernet for about $6 with wine club membership. Plus, I got to help create their new summer sangria mix. Just fun!
I slept in this AM, and need to get into my cycling SHORTS. Feel the need for a serious training ride as didn't get in quite enough walking this week. I will do a fun ride tomorrow with some cycling buddies. Just remembered this will be starting at Juanita Beach so perhaps should take my swimsuit if warm enough for a swim in Lake Washington.
I had the funniest experience yesterday. I dug out an old bright red Ferragamo shoulder bag. One of my stops was Nordstrom's to get another one repaired. Just the coolest style, and not on eBay. I have looked. Anyway, I walked by a display and there was almost my exact handbag!!! Mine is over 20 years old, and of course got resale. But I held them side by side, and we all had a good laugh. Minor differences, but almost exactly the same.
So it does pay to keep good stuff. I cycle in and out and update occasionally. Actually, I don't think I spend nearly as much doing things this way as buying new OK stuff.
Hoping everyone has the most wonderful day! - Claire

Happy Saturday girls. It is a good day here, I removed my pain pump and feel oh so liberated! Funny how the little things make me so happy. I was happy to have the air things around my legs removed first. Then the cathadar. Today is the pain pump. The pratt triplet's are here until next Thursday. Those intrusive bastards!
Goldie, what an adorable dog. Cheerz! My DD just scolded me for making a wee widdle dwink. I did not have to tell on myself but I wanted to confirm that today is Saturday and further commented that it is 5'oclock somewhere. She said "are you taking pain medication and drinking"? Gosh, I have my tail between my legs and sure wish she understood that this would not kill me. I feel damn good being my third day post surgery.And for the record, if not fer likker and percocet, I would not be so happy, I would be pissed off and down instead of hanging with my girls here. I am still elated that I have lived another of my life wishes and got to sample morphine. I am happy that I got to try it and am not checking out and will get better vs the ugly alternative. FUCK CANCER! I do not think I will offend anyone but sorry if I do. I am on another rant, sorry. Back to Goldie, how is construction going on da Shady Lady?
NM, thanks for saving me a seat by the pool. I think I shall wander over there now. Here is hoping that this weekend is not as busy as last weekend. It was nice catching up on your posts, they are always, without fail, so awesome and come from your heart with such enthusiasm. It is also nice to have a nurse in the lounge.
Where is Gail? I do not believe I have seen her this week but then again I am pretty darn high. I will wonder around the lounge and see who I can find. Ohhhh, I see the percotini fountain, is that Kathy? No, says Pants.
Kathy, this is turning out to be that long post you requested. I hope you have a fun day.
Where is my Beanius? Me tinks me shall have to go a few pages back. Sorry, dis dwain does not have the capacity to
Stanzie, how very sad about your choir member friends. This cancer shit just pisses me off to no end. Sorry for the language but gosh, how about some mercy? This makes me beg for the answer to the frequently asked question WHY?!???? How could this happen? I hope you and your fellow choir members can help your stage IV friend along, I can't even imagine the pain of loving or knowing this couple. It sucks so badly for everyone involved. It sure reminds me to rejoice in each day. Ya see, Stanzie, as sas as this story is, it did change my thinking about what is really important. You have a nice little group with the choir and such and I again hope you are able to help the widow past her loss and get through the rest of her life. Being involved in something seems to make all the difference. Am I blabbering, sorry. It is the dwugs! I hope all well for you. So are you going to sign that contact for house priveledges?
Beacon, welcome! I hope to see you back here soon. We need some new drunken faces around here!! haha. Very cool that you dined with your onc. I would love to have my group of docs on such a personal level. Was he cute? Are you single?
Chrissy, thanks for the lovely flutes. You are so sweet as always. I can't believe I will be seeing you in just over a month. I hope my little dogs do not make you crazy when you are staying with me. But there are several hotels aroud her that we can send the dogs to if they bother you lol.
Kitty Kat, I hope you are feeling better as each day passes. It is nice to see you here. You were more active when I first found this thread and are one the the reasons I stay here. Mrs. Nice is another who was active at that time (I joined in Sept 2010). Your avatar picture is adorable
Well, me thinks me may need to lay down for a wee bit. That 11am drink hit me hard and I think that will be it until later in the evening.
Cheerz!!!

Yes, many tanks for da nice long post DorK! Weally enwoyed it!!! Glad you went ahead and had a dwink too....you deserve to feel mellow.
And.....drum roll pwease.....WooHoo...DH just called and he came in 3rd in the BJ tournament....$2500! HE would have won 1st ($10k) if only the dealer had NOT busted on that last hand! There were lots of tables involved, and he had to win at his table, to get in the semi-finals, then had to win at that table to get in the finals, only 6 were in the finals. So all day I have been working outside and *glistening*, then coming in while he was playing and waiting for his phone call, then out again to get *glistening*....etc. Now I can go back out and glisten all I want! Really hot, but I am glad that I am thinking more clearly today since I am coming in to cool off more. So things are working out today. I will not press my luck though and try to mention something about everyone, as I surely would get everyone mixed up!!! LOL. Anyway, just found out, so wanted to share the happy news!!
Kathy, Spouse of a winner

Yay Kathy!!! Can you send some of this luck my way. Such as they say "yes" to the research project.
Anyway, suspect Beans is out enjoying the wonderful summer weather here. It finally arrived today and should stick around for at least one more day. The most amazing clear weather. Just glorious.
I got in a long ride so feel back in the swing of things. Fit and healthy, and ready to take on the world. I dragged the first few miles, and then did a blistering pace.
Have a fun group ride planned for tomorrow where we peak at the expensive houses along Lake Washington. I have never done this route, so should be fun.
I think it might be time for a celebratory G&T. Now, there's a thought that brings a smile to my face.
Cheers..... and bottomZ up! - Claire

Ok, here goes....trying to send luck out to everyone here! But wait, there is no one here today.....sooooooo empty at the bar!
Where is everyone at? Had the buffet all to myself, and the mimosa fountain too. Leaving the percotini fountain for the 3 of you recovering from surgery!Haven't been able to reach Junie...no ans today, and she was having a breathing tx when I called last night. Will let you all know, when I hear something. Hoping you are mending well Junie, and sending ((hugs))) and healing thoughts and prayers your way!
DorK, Hope you are still recovering well! When do you get to "peek"? Hoping for great results!!! Not envying you with the Pratt Boys, and hoping they will come out this week! Then throw 'em to the curb and tell them not to come back!!!!
Heather, hoping you are doing well too!
Take care galz, and dwink a lot today.....it is a day of rest....rest and dwink, rest and dwink....
I took my mom to another decorating class at Pottery Barn this am, then shopping, now to tidy up, as my DH will be home soon! Been nice having the house to myself for awhile, though!
Cheers! Beers!

Hello, hello? Anyone here? Kathy? I think it may be time for pau hannna.
Not to be a downer, but did anyone here have the lat flap? I have taken a good look at my new teeny tinie boobie and it looks like it got stuck while channeling from my back to the chest and is stuck in my arm pit. Really, I just noticed, I have a boob in my armpit. Anyone?
0 -
Yikes DorK....I don't know anything about lat flap, but surely there is a thread here about that? Maybe some good info there? Also maybe you can call your PS's office in the morning and ask them if that is normal, and will it settle in the right place? Pants, puleez bring our Dotty a nice, big, humongous, glass of JD & Diet! Have this big dwink and get mellow so you won't worry about this. Hoping it is just something that needs to settle into place!
0 -
I would skip the diet anything and just do the JD neat DorK. YIKES!!!
We have finally had two days of summer, and I am celebrating with a G&T. Really enjoying as got some limes. I will need this after all the hills I did today. Plus, will help my sore ankle.
Amazing my tonic water is still good as bottles are dated Dec 08, but that is why you buy the little bottles (unless serving up a crowd). Mine is delish.
I have three more bottles to drink up. Hard task which someone has to do.
When I finish up the tonic, I want to try the real bitter lemon they are selling at Met Market. That was my fave back in the day and wondering if still true.
Hoping everyone has the most fab week! - Claire
I am liking this so well, that I may go the G&T route when I get back from cycling, and after I fumigate myself. Especially since tonic water appears to work with leg cramps.
0 -
Thanks for the welcome Dorothyk! My onc is kinda cute, geeky a bit, but very sweet. I was out with him and two other people, I am married and my onc is definitely a "friends only" relationship. He is really fun, and does love his wine. Me too!
0 -
Stanzie, so sad about your friends in the choir, I am so sorry. Blessing to that family.
The picture of the puppy is NOT mine. I just copied from the internet to show a Yorkie Puppy. Stanzie had mentioned that she didn't know what one looked like, and it was SOOOO adorable!
DorK, glad you popped in for some D&D! (drinking & drugs) LOL! Also good to hear how well you are feeling. You look funny with a tail! The Shady Lady is coming along. I think DH will start laying the floor on the back half tomorrow. A boob in your armpit and a tail......girl you are a sight! J/K of course, and I hope it is doing what it is suppose to be doing. I thought you were getting a tissue expander put in. I don't know anything about MX's and recon, so forgive my ignorance. And then I thought you would be having another surgery. Me tinks I am wrong? Sounds like this is it! And of course we have to pray that your body accepts it, correct?
Kathy, that is great news DH's winnings. Glad you are coming in to cool off, I try and try to get my DH to come in the house for his breaks, but I usually lose out and he just stays outside in the heat. I stay inside cleaning, as I can't handle those high temps. I hope you are able to get some news on Junie soon.
Junie, we love and miss you. Get better real soon....HUGS!
Beacon, you can have all the wine you want here! And you can even whine if needed.
Hope all of our other gals are doing well, and just out enjoying life and summer. I couldn't get on yesterday, as I am having trouble with my wireless connection. It keeps going into roaming, so I called this morning. Spent almost an hour on the phone with them. I guess it has something to do with one of their towers in this area. They said it was "on going". WTF? Fix it! Said I could go ahead and connect while roaming and if I get charged (up to $28 a MB) they would take care of it. Uh, not sure I would do that. Then I have something to fight, if they don't take it off my bill, and how would I ever prove that they said I could do it.
Oh well, guess I better get moving! Maybe go grab a Mimosa, since I am sure there are plenty left as The HTL was so quiet!
0 -
Oh Goldie - hope they do get that fixed. Hmmm maybe they could send you an email saying you won't be charged the roaming.... Goldie - why does DorK have a tail.... I have so missed something awfully important! Hope your floor gets put in!
kathy congrats on the winings! OK, somehow the Pratt boys is a bit icky..... if you know what I mean. But I like the throw them to the curb part!
DorK ---- I don't have LD flap but I did have LD and YES !!!! that is the problem I have with the extra pillows under my arms - it is horrible. However you are so soon out of surgery yours may actually just be swelling... they won't do anything till your swelling to really gone like 6 mos. Of course I'm now over a year with the problem and mine wont' fix it. But give it time and talk to your PS about it and try and get him to Agree to fix it if it doesn't go away...... but you are too soon out of surgery to know yet. Please ask away on anything concerning that surgery!!!! I'm here...
Claire - So that is what helps leg cramps - G and T! I can do that! The bitter lemon sounds interesting.
Beacon - hmmm having a friend onc.. who likes wine... that could be interesting to get information out of him/her!
Happy Monday all..... my ex is taking my kids up to a state park cabin for a week...... hate them being gone for so long and always worry about the drive and such.... No cell phone, internet or TV so that is good for the kids but would like to know everything is OK.!

AArrggghhhhhh just lost a long post.....sometimes I will "copy" it while typing in case I lose it, then I will still have part of it, but when copying it I lost it! Sheesh!
Lori, If you have another prob with connections, I would get the persons name you talked to, and jot that down, along with the date and what was promised. THEN if you have to use the roaming, you would have proof that they told you to do that. Some of the calls are recorded too. But I agree, it sometimes is just something else that you have to fight for, and not always worth the stress. Glad you are on now! My mom is doing well, but still very forgetful. We plan what we are going to paint together, then she forgets and thinks she won't want to paint on this trip. Will be much easier for her to start now, without my dad around, and he makes it too stressful for her...always wondering when she will finish, and looking over her shoulder! I did print out a seascape with dunes that she wanted to paint, so as soon as she gets her easel finished, I need to get us set up to paint. Its really cool how she figured out how to make the easel on her own...really is looking sharp. Today she is going to home depot to get masonite cut for the back of the long, low bookcase she is building. SO she is doing amazing stuff for her age, but then again will forget something we just talked about. I am enjoying the good times, while I can!
Stanzie, I think we should all head out to your house for a week-long partay!!! Sounds like fun to have your house to yourself for awhile. Although I know you will miss your kids terribly, is there something you can do for yourself this week? Like pamper yourself by going to a spa, or having some wine in a lounge at noon, or window-shopping, etc? Something that is hard to do with the kids with you. Is this the Thursday the film crew will be there? At least if you tidy up the house, it will stay that way till they get there, and hopefully they will leave your house in good condition! OK, packing up our bus right now so we can all have a big blow-out party at your house!!! J/K!
Well, going to the condo to do some work today....NOT fun! Hoping I can do that grout work correctly....been a long time since I have done that. But since the guy finished the ceiling, we really need to finish it and get it listed for rent.
DorK, Did you get any answers? Hope it just needs to settle!!!!
Beans, where art thou??? Come on back....your barstool has been empty too long! Too many MIA loungettes....Gail, haven't heard from you for awhile either...and then you deleted a post. Are you okay???? When is your 50th? Hoping you will get that big party....or else we will have to kidnap you and have a big party for you ourselves!!! Please post so we know you are okay!
Happy Day-Before-Tuesday to all the Loungettes!!!
