Yes, Dotty, will say prayers for Nancy,that is SO sad. I hate that. Glad you quit smoking. I quit yrs ago but never smoked enuf to matter, anyway. I take the sublingual B12, was on 6000mg, but my levels are SKYHIGH, so I dropped to about 2000mg, but my levels are still up. I don't care, I need the ENERGY! I also take B6, etc. but only sublingual is the B12, gets it into your system better (under your tongue). I don't know if the B complex has enough B12 for me, Sue...lol, ya know I need my energy!! But yeah, melatonin too at night, the time release type. It works.
Hugs!

Dork What a day u'r having--I can't believe u'r having so much trouble with a hole--I thought we all taught u bout that. Well not good enuff.
Sickofpink--U'r new right--I get confused so easily--well this is a place u can sneak drink and never et caught or get hangovers ever, there's an unending supply of anything u want in our lounge open 24 hrs a dy 7 days a week and this is a great geoup of ladies and we all care about our problems-I think we just try to make the best of it so pull up a chir and tell us about u'rself and if u already know everbody tell me about u'rself.
Steeeeellla see I knew she'd show up--tht Charlie has sneaky eyes don't ya tink? Hmmm Stella will teach him, Bwhahahaha
OK I don't take notes or double screen so I memeber nothing---Oh Cyn I personally don't want to hear about the temps there--when even I get pushed over in this cold windy day. BBBRRR
Oh about me-my infection is my bladder--it doesn't hurt when I pee-no blood-nothing like that--I have an actual pain from my back going around to my front--never ot this tpe before--that why no drinkin' BWhahahaha but I drink so much water they run out of what I like all the time. and since my blood panels are low I'm extra tired, I can always tell when that happens--I see a gastroblabla Jan 4th (again) for my diarrhea thingy see if he can find out why-when I made the app/t and she asked how long have u had this I said 5 yrs. she thought I was funny. Then she said no seriously and I said seriously 5yrs. so she says u want to come in right now? No no no--So let's see if he can find what no one else could my mystery illness.
Oh I can't member anything else and no one has heard fro raku at all?
OK I'll TTYL Oh I'm wearing my nice long flannel red nightgown with gingerbread cookes on it and it's so comfy warm--well I'm not leaving the house. Where I used to live the 7-11 Store used to have PJ day on Mondays sometimes--That was a brilliant idea for me.

OMG Cammi......FIVE YEARS of "D"????? Boy, you are a STRONG TROOPER too, foah shuah! WOW. Hope and Pray that new dr can figure out the problem. Glad you will be seeing him soon. Jan 4 will be here before we know it, I can't believe that it is almost Christmas...this month has FLOWN. Speaking of flown, still verry windy here today, not sure if we can set up the decorations back up, as will maybe have 45 mph gusts (was 55 mph gusts yest).
OK....still haven't colored my hair yet...so much to do....heading upstairs now to tackle that job....otherwise I might be mistaken for Mrs. Claus wid all de white hair showing! LOL.
Welcome "SickOfPink"....like Cami said, pull up a barstool and tell us about yourself....
Hugsssssssssssssssssssssssss!

Kat we've got the same winds here--this is brutal and the howling is frightening. LOL My hair is not done yet either--now I'm waiting til Sunday-it's foiled free what can I say.?
And please don't mistake me for a trooper I just go along that's it and I think I'm going to try the yogurt that makes all the men look like John Stamos--see tat commercial?

I've seen that commercial Cami...I have had the D for years too..but I dont talk about it..but guess I am now...I've tried changing my diet, fiber, now I just take immodium. I was told years ago it was irritable bowel. IDK...nothing seems to work and no one seems very conserned about it. How did your "homemade" cookies turn out? Hell with it..I would still go into 7-11 with my jammies if I needed to even if it wasnt pajama day. Your gown sounds warm and toasty!
Whats a salt flat? Interesting...
Sorry to hear about everyones past dealings with being victim...I can relate to you all as I had a similar thing happen to me when I was in my 20's..I dont talk about it but I remember there being a victims advocate and I was given free counseling for it at the time.
K..on a more pleasant note....I also cant believe how quickly this month has flown by.
Hmmm....I just had a new computer delivered to me...I wonder why...maybe I should ask my Team leader...you would have thought I would have been told..chit..i got two notices that they were sending me post it notes and pens.
maybe this is my company Christmas gift...

Awesome to get a new computer from your company, Cyn! Even though its for work, I hope you can also use it for personal stuff, but even if not, its nice to have the newest bells and whistles. Hate that you were victimized too....they used to say 1 in 4 women, but it sounds like its almost everyone (or maybe just us dwinkers....it led us to dwink!)! And you have the "D" too....that sux.
Dang, I just got home....soooooo much holiday traffic on Friday nite. Had to go into town to the fabric store...they did NOT have a match for my dressy fabric, went thru the entire store, but found a trim for $10 that should work, for the "Extra" it needed. Someone tried to run into me AGAIN...stoopid drivers!!!!
Hey, I havent' seen that yogurt commercial...he must be a HUNK!
My DD and family got here safely from TX...yay (but we won't see them till tomorrow)! Now my SIL who used to not drink is having a Yuengling at the Embassy Suites reception. HE will have a beer or wine now, since he is an athlete, somehow it is good for that? I need to start doing triathlons I guess! LOL...yeah that would be the day...well, it would take me several days to finish one!
I can picture Lori and her DD at the Embassy Suites tonight too...but too early there as the reception just started here 30 min ago. Enjoy it, Lori!!!!
Having a Seagrams/Diet, then I need to finish cleaning and do some more cooking.
Hugssssssssssssssssssssssss and Happy Pau Hana!

Hiya my non-feathers bwesties!
Today is Fwiedey and ya know what? I tail ye all a short Dorka story. It started with my XDH aka my baby daddy (MBD). Any time he would say the word friday ON friedey, I say berry loudly YEAH! Now my DD and my STBXDH play de same game and sumtimes say de werd when calling mese at work and I have to scream YEAH (I use a manly voice and say the word like three sylables). So dat mese story and it is fwiedey! YEAH!
I really enjoyed reading today's posts. So much to comment on but mese can't brememba eberyting so foygive me if mese don't mention on of yese! But more about mese first. It is so weird that so much of the US is having such high winds. Many of my coworkers along with my DD were talking about being woken up last night by pounding rain hitting their bedroom windows and the high wind gusts. When I pulled out of mese dwiveway dis morning, I noticed that most of my Christmas decor was blown over and some ever blew away. I have eight mini lighted Christmas twees around my front gardens and all but one blew over. One of them pulled the electrical stake out of the ground and it was in there about 6". I had no idea that we had such a storm until I left for work. I tink I tailed you all that I was late.
As for the coworker, he was terminated for performance or lack dereof. He was clearing loan conditions that only underwriters are allowed to clear. And when he did a closing call template, the last statement is IWR which means I would recomend. We has to ask our client de corny question if they will recommend our services. Well Gary wrote NO every time, he told me that he had never been would what that means and thought it was special pricing or something. He really was not cut out for the job, but a nice guy and so sad to be canned right before Christmas. And meanwhile, another guy on mese team who sucks as a processor was actually promoted. He is also a really nice guy but sucked at the job and has been there for quite some time.
More about mese (lol), I so happy dat it is de foyst day of winter but only cuz dat means in three months, it will already be spring, mese lubs de spring de best. and funny ting, mese already has some perenials dat popped out of the ground because of the warm weather from last week. Speaking of weather, I wuz starting to tink dat de world is ending cuz most of us American chickies has had bad weather, wicked winds and yucky rain. I feel most sorry for you Katwinka cuz you put so much time into making yer place loook so festive and to have all de stuff blow away. And losing de luminaries is sad. It sorta like one minute bootiful den tragic. So enuff bout boring ole mese!
I tank you all for prayers for Nancy. I am still shocked over her news. I pray for all of you girls who have been molested and victimized. At first I thought how lucky I am to have not gone through that but den I dig deeper into my head and recall something that happened when I was only four or five (dis not about mese, it about de perp). I had not even realized it was molestation until I was in my 20's! And I had forgotten about de incident for many years. But I will share my story. I will try to make it short cuz mese needs a dwink and dere ain't no one hear to bwing me one. chit. so here it go....I used to play with a boy who was a few years younger than me, maybe 2 years old. He was from a great family, the father was a good man and a politician as well. One day when I was playing with him (we played candy land lol), he had a female baby sitter. The incident was very brief but it is something that bothers me when I think of what dis baby sitter got away with. I remember being attacked on a sofa. In my mind, I had been "beat up" by a girl who was probably 16. I remember me fighting her on the sofa and her trying to get in my underwear. It was only five minutes or so before I ran out and went home. I ran home and came in the house and was going to tell my Mom but she was napping (wonder where I get dat from hehe, love mese Mommy). When she woke up, I had already decided to jest stuff it and forget about it and I did, for a number of years. In my mind, I knew the girls name was either Kathy C. or Kathy P... I used to get dem mixed up with each other. Anyway, many years later, I ended up in the hospital for emergency wisdom teeth extraction. Well the nurse there recognized me and told me that her daughter used to babysit for Skippy who lived two doors down. At that moment, I was numb. It hit me, it was Kathy C who had attacked me some 20+ years before. I remember laying in that hospital bed and reflecting on what had happened and at that moment, I realized that I had been sexually abused. I had never told anyone in my life until after that day when I confided in my sister Mariann. She is the only one to this day that knows, well cept for you goils now.
~sigh~, I need anudder dwink and it ain't gonna be virtual. I hope someone partaying with mese cuz when mese come back, I will talk to ye goils and talk about happier times, ABOUT ME of course hehe.
praying for Cyn and Cam on de cure for the D, spayshally Camille. OMG, five years? That is horrible. I was also diagnosed with diverticulitis and IBS about five years ago. I had a funky pain in mese side that would throb, especially when I was nervous or overwhelmed. I still have the pain now and then but nothing like before. Somehow, de chits went away but for a year or so, I was another one always running for the bathroom and I HATED it.
I also praying for Lynda and praying that her team of docs have taken care of the fluid build up. I gonna hug Lynda and ask her to always please report to de lounge. We will gib you rounds of hugs, okay? You know I pray for all of you and usually pray for the girls here collectively. But I find it so enpowering to pray for you all individually and just state your names to God. And of course I tail him de disclaimer dat if mese foygot to mention EN one, dey have my prayers too. Right now, my prayer is for Lynda. ok mese gonna leave de chapel and go git a dwink den come back.
And enough about mese, it time for you to all tail me what YOU tink of mese hehehe!!
Love n hugs to all of my bwesties! I will be bock soonliest. God willing......
chEErs, chairs and barstools. (((GROUP HUG))))

Kathy - yeah…co will make money on the fear/anguish of parents around da world. Watch LV news today…all our schools FORBID BACKPACKS today, cuz of threats of copy cat. One 18 yoa was caught at a local Tech School with assault rifle and ammo in his car. Not sure what his intent was..but jes being on school prop wif dat shit is a crime and he in jail now. Anyway…my point….backpacks can hide weaponry. Chit…jes makes me sick…dats all I gonna say!! Yes Katwinka…our big dinner tamary. I got everything done and even got a nap in. And I needed it after my ‘stoner’ last night. OOOh and my pooches cleaned up real nice too. Groomer put green ribbons in Bella’s hair…gotta see if I can post a pic. Sounds like you got things well in hand too. Happy B-day to 8yoa gd!! My gs loves chucky cheese too. Last year papa (my dh) took Maddy, then 2, to AM’s 5th at dat place. DH got video of Maddy screaming, crying, running from Mr Chucky Cheese…soo funny. All I have to do tamary is pick up da tamales on our way out of town….feels good to be DONE! Glad your DD and family made it safely from TX. NO…no triathalons….only cuz I love you and KNO u’d be MIA for days…LOL. Here…jes hab another Seagrams…all is OK wif our worlds…KaChink!
Cami - 5 years??? OK…I jes assumed..so now I gonna ask…when was last time you had da heiney scope…da colonoscopy?? And…how bout pelvic CT?? Dat long flannel red nightgown w/gingerbread cookies sounds so warm n comfy…but NO F’n way cud I wear it. I am in bed in sleeveless and shortie chit…tooo many hot flashes. I seen dat John Stamos commercial…Purdy phunny. I tried dat yogurt toooo….but after my insides exploded….I been on pro-biotics…only one dat works is Floraster. It is only one I found with the main ingredient of Saccharomyces Boulardii. Most pro-biotics are achidophlis(sp) or some lactose based sumping or other. None of which worked for me, like Align and Philips brand. I read on one of these threads about a year ago about the S-Boulardii. I looked at every label…all diff. Then I found at Walgreens the Floraster. Now it is even at my grocery store. But very pricey…so I order on line…safe a lot. You might consider looking into it. NOT one of my docs told me about probiotics either. Praying you find a solution…(((Cami))) OOO and my DD (kidney transplant pt) …she had 3 or 4 Bladder infections every year…before dey figured out her problem…but point
is…NO pain in peeing, no burning…ONLY pain in back side to front. Might hab da docs look hard at da kidney…K?
Cyn….you too…look into the Florastor…please!! New Computer….tooo cooooollll!!!
I knew there are more of us ‘victims’ on this thread. But…time heals those wounds, so lets jes dwink…K?
Dorfy…I don’t tink dat key was sposed to go in da ignition…dat widdle key jes to open da door. Da fob ‘door unlock’ part malfuntion, but fob ignition part shud still woik. Mine did same ting and it was jes da battery inside da fob…for opening da doors…but my ignition part still woiked. I changed da 12v widdle battery and wahla…all goot. U can correct me if mese wrong once you git it to da repair shop. I tank ewe fer tailing me bout ur friend Nancy…I am a smoker…sometimes I hate it, but most times I love it. Anyway….I jes came from my emails…n guess what …der was a Groupon for e-cigs…normally $175...but I gots for $25. I keep trying to quit…I steal a quote from a dear fwend of mine…”I am a serial quitter”. So I keep trying…but honestly…if I don’t…I’m OK wif dat…I mean…well…it’s obvious isn’t it? (((((Dorfy))))….I do understand…thank you for sharing your incident….this is a crazy world we live in. I THANK GOD AND ALL YOU WONDERFUL BREASTIES FOR BEING MY HOLD ON REALITY….I LOVE YOU ALL!!
Sickofpink - What is da issue with ur liver?? Have they confirmed mets?? I had TCH and continue with the Herceptin. I am 58 now and was on injected HRT…like mega hormones for menopause…birth control similar I guess. My onco and BS asked me my drinking habits…I started to list…Brandy, Tequila, Vodka…dey say…NO…only a glass or 2 of wine per week. Well…I don’t drink wine…I drink what I drink and have not slowed down…in fact…alcohol consumption has increased. Maybe I might tink diff if my prognosis was diff. But it is what it is and I am alll good with it. Soooo….if you want to take a trip…don’t take da guilt trip…take a trip to a winery, or da shopping mall…but don’t go there. We only get one shot at this life…each of us gets to decide HOW we will live it…so jes decide, accept, and find peace! We are here for you and you can ask anything on this thread or PM us. So…that said…I am having another brandy/coffee…ChEARs!!

Wow I missed alot---OK dork this is about me, me, me.LOL
Sue they have been checking my kidney I have one that isn't quite right they said---my liver isn't so good, my colonoscopy was perfect, that test that goes down the throat and up the ass was good, some stomach tupe of check thing was good--Now when I started chemo all my organs were good and no diarrhea I felt ood no infections, I never even caught a cold and zi was over 60. After I had 2 urs of chemo and rads that's when everything went ad, but my diarrhea started at my first chemo and never stopped, it's an explosion of water, I don't feel like I have to go nothing it just literally explodes out anytime, anywhere It can ladt for 3 hrs to days thst's why my electrolytes are so screwed up and therefore my heart is being watched now too and I catch all these infections , cold, sinus things--which I've never had and and my bones have more arthritis than bone. This last summer my left leg was paralyzed and my arm---I finally went to ER it was all my electroyes I get so sick from them being so low--that time I was in the hosp. almost a week with exploding diarrhea and the electrolytes they couldn't figure anything out--thdn a month later in the hospital again same readon same lenth of time--now they take blood panels every 2 weeks to watch this and then I can catch up right away---None of this was before chemo--not even the arthritis. So I really blame that and everything on cancer still and always. LOL
OK enuff about me except that why they wanted my port kept in too, cuz my arms are useless and I have LE. So I'm a big ball of fun everyday. hahaha
Hot Chocolate and Kalua yummy.

Welcome Sick of Pink -
Cammi darling - just a thought. I am allergic to the artificial sweetners that are added to food - always gives me the dreaded runs. Look into the ingrediants of your food,
Adverse Reactions to Aspartame
Migraines are by far the most frequently reported reaction. Other commonly reported symptoms of an aspartame reaction include:
headache
change in mood
change in vision
convulsions and seizures
sleep problems/insomnia
change in heart rate
hallucination
abdominal cramps/pain
memory loss
rash
nausea and vomiting
fatigue and weakness
dizziness/poor equilibrium
diarrhea
hives
joint pain

How to Eliminate Toxins from Artificial Sweeteners
- Check your food labels at home and throw out everything that has on its label: Aspartame, Acesulfame Potassium (K), Saccharin or Sucralose Equal®, NutraSweet® or Splenda®
- Use natural sweeteners like agave nectar or raw honey.
- Avoid products that are labeled "low calorie," "diet," "sugar free," or "no sugar added" since they all likely contain sugar additives.
- Drink purified water instead of diet drinks. Do NOT drink tap water!
- Ask your government representatives and the FDA to ban toxic artificial sweeteners.
- Perform regular Intestinal tract cleansing's. It will help to reduce the toxic effects of artificial sweeteners.
- Perform three consecutive Liver Cleanses to expel the toxins built up in your body. Also, try Dr. Group's Harmful Organism Cleanse & Heavy Metal Cleanse.

1. Aspartame
What's in it: Phenylalanine, aspartic acid and methanol.
Reported side effects: Headaches, fibromyalgia, anxiety, memory loss, arthritis, abdominal pain, nausea, depression, heart palpitations, irritable bowel syndrome, seizures, neurological disorders, vision problems, brain tumors and weight gain.
Concerns: Phenylalanine and aspartic acid directly impact brain and central nervous system functions; evidence shows they play a role in mood disorders, memory problems and other neurological illnesses.
Methanol is converted into formaldehyde when metabolized. Makers of aspartame say methanol and its byproducts are quickly excreted. But research has found measurable amounts of formaldehyde in the livers, kidneys and brains of test subjects after ingestion of aspartame.
At high temperatures, phenylalnine breaks down into diketopiperazine (DPK), a known carcinogen. Phenylalnine is especially dangerous for people with the hereditary disease, phenylketonuria.
2. Aceslulfame-K
What's in it: Acesulfame-K is a potassium salt containing methylene chloride, a known carcinogen.
Reported side effects: Long term exposure to methylene chloride can cause nausea, headaches, mood problems, impairment of the liver and kidneys, problems with eyesight and possibly cancer. Acesulfame-K may contribute to hypoglemica.
Concerns: Of all artificial sweeteners, acesulfame-K has undergone the least scientific scrutiny. Early studies showed a potential link between the sweetener and development of multiple cancers in laboratory animals.
3. Sucralose
What's in it: Sucralose is a synthetic additive created by chlorinating sugar. Manufacturers say the chlorine in sucralose is no different from that in table salt. Fact: the chemical structure of the chlorine in sucralose is almost the same as that in the now-banned pesticide DDT.
Reported side effects: Head and muscle aches, stomach cramps and diarrhea, bladder issues, skin irritation, dizziness and inflammation.
Concerns: Research has shown sucralose can cause shrinking of the thymus gland, an important immune system regulator, and liver and kidney dysfunction. A recent study by Duke University found sucralose reduces healthy intestinal bacteria, which are needed for proper digestion and can impact the effectiveness of prescription and other drugs.
4. Saccharin
What's in it: Saccharin is a sulfa-based sweetener; its primary ingredient is benzoic sulfimide.
Reported side effects: For those with sulfa allergies, saccharin may cause nausea, diarrhea, skin problems or other allergy-related symptoms.

Good morning. Loungettes! Lovely sunny morning, got the dripping wet laundry off the line and into the washer for a rinse and spin out. Hopefully it will be warm enough for the stuff to dry today! I'm lucky the wind didn't take it all off the line or take the line down last night. I'm surprised the power didn't go out, too! It blinked once, but that was it. Add to that I'm not on back up call today, only on Monday, so I could sleep in and I can putter and relax today! Life is good!
CynCyn--Arrggghhh the post gremiln struck again. We've got to do something about him! Looks like 12/21/12 is going to be another Y2K. Lots of hoopla over nothing! I almost think I'm disappointed! Nah, not really. BTW--Pizza is my Christmas Eve tradition. I get a really big one so I can have cold pizza for breakfast Christmas morning. Nope, no alchamahol abuse, the few drops that sloshed over got soaked up by a piece of toast! Made for yummy toast!
Stella! Finally, about time you checked in, girlie! Charlie is cute, where'd you meet him? Flying all over the world, huh? Is that what you call it, dear? Good for you!
ORLA--pretty windy yesterday, wasn't it? Kinda fun to watch all the Christmas lights getting blown off the trees and houses1
Chrissy--glad to know that the world down under is safe! It's great that the grandkids like grandma's cooking, makes things very nice for everyone!
ORLA--that looks like a great work out, but what are "Mountain Climbers"? The rest I can figure out (especially "rest") but not that one!
Wahine--Hope you're having fun with the fam! And got everything done before 5 so you could relax and dwinky! What a cool pic! The world is such a wonderous place.
Mema--good to be caught up, isn't it? That is funny about your sis getting busted for slapping her bf!
Sickofpink--Welcome to the HTL! Lots of virtual drinking going on here. Most of us here have thought about the quality of life/changing lifestyle forever balance during and after bc treatment. We've all struggled with the question "is living longer worth it if I can't drink, or is having an occasional drink worth dying a bit sooner?" Put another way, what's life worth if I can't really LIVE it? But that's just my point of view. What kind of vino do you like? That little buzz is fun, isn't it?
DorKable--Sometimes I think technology goes too far. I had a rental car once that didn't use a key, just had a button to push that would start the car as long as I had this fob thingy in my pocket. It wierded me out big time. Some things should just have keys! Yes, my car has a remote door unlocker/locker, but it also has a KEY! So even with a dead battery I can get into and start my cah! I am looking forward to seeing the HTL in Heaven one day, bet it's gonna be FUN!!!!!
Wahine--I'm not sure what blullet proof backpacks will do to help, none of the kids had their backpacks on during the shooting, I don't think. I guess it helps parents feel like they are doing something, I guess. White chicken chili sounds good! Chucky Cheese isn't my favorite place to eat, but I bet the 8 year old will love it! If the weather cooperates we'll be having Christmas dinner at lunch time on Tuesday. Have to wait and see what happens with the Nor'Easter that's headed this way, I guess. Gotta love winter weather.
Cammy--With pain from your back to your front are you sure the infection isn't in your kidneys? I hope the gastro is going to be more helpful that she sounds on the phone. But then I've been told that I'm too sensitive about stuff like that. But it would be nice to at least know WHY you suffer with the D all the time.
CynCyn--a computer as a company Christmas gift? Sounds like quite a gift! Maybe it means a raise or promotion is coming?
DorKable--YEEE AYE AH!!! Oh, yeah, that was yesterday. Too bad, it was fun anyway! Sounds like the coworker's training was inadequate in some respects. Or he didn't pay attention. But if he didn't know what it was he should have asked someone! Hopefully he'll find a job he's better suited to and will enjoy more. I wonder how many other people experience something like you did, and don't realize what it was until much later. The innocence of children is remarkable, and too precious to be taken advantage of.
Aarrgghhh, had lots more but a power bump took it away. Oh, well, time to back up and try to redo.
Mema--reading labels can be scary, can't it? I should do better about that, but don't always.
Cammy--I'm glad you're getting your 'lytes checked regularly. Imbalances can create some seriously yucky side effects. Amazing how chemo can screw up your system.
BBBBernie--the side effects of aspartame can be very insidious. I was drinking lots of diet soda to help cut calories, and then read about aspartame. I stopped drinking diet soda (all soda actually) and found that I felt better! Nothing hugely reportable, just less tired, less hungry, and am able to lose weight, even less depressed. It's amazing how much difference that one change can make! I haven't tried a liver cleanse or detoxification routine yet, have you? Does it make a difference in how you feel?
Juliet--yep, plenty safe, some of the tubes got knocked off one of my wind chimes, a few branches down along the property line, that's it.

Official Good Morning all u beautiful goils---everyone of u.
Bernie u have interests that are amazing and so informative, I have learned about alot from my oldest DD cuz she has diabetis ! and tries ro watch all this stuff for other side effects too--She made a huge book for all the "rules" and ave one to my GF husband cuz he just ot it-so she really educated herself and me some about the sugar thing. But u'r a doll to keep up with everything.
Cyn a new computer? For shoa--wow they love u. And what's great is u know all about setting it up and all the things u'r able to do with it. U guys are so smart. U'r all successful women in so many ways and u should all be proud of u'rselves for all the accomplishments u have made.Especially with all u have gone thru.
NM U have a wickedly funny sense of humor--enjoying all the lights blowing away, I LOL at that one. -Oh and they do watch my kidneys, especially the one I have that has been tampered with chemo. LOL
Spinky (am I right Bernie) I hope u come back u will be in such a good place here, for u'r mind and body.
Goldie isn't around now right?--I hope she 's enjoying her Holiday--I love to be with my kids-but raising kids stinks--I thik it's so much harder than when I did it. I don't know how everyone keeps up with things now, too techy which I think it not as good as it sounds for kids anyway.
Dork u'd better be resting--u've been thru so much, please take good care of u'rself--I know it's a busy time but do it in shifts maybe then it's not so hard on u.
And Kat u must be busy a great trip is coming up and u and Dork will have time together--I love that.--Face turning green.
It's sunny here but cold, but the wind is very low now---finally--hardly any snow streets all clear--see we only really get it when they don't expect it. My kids aren't home yet so I'm sure I won't get out today--I wanted to go to the !.00 store to get some boxes and sruff--I can't drive the van--to much for me to handle so . Joey always help me wrap anyway so it won't take me long and I showed him where I hid everything (I forgot) so he rememers--Oh I have to tell u what he said his morning--I was helping him make his breakfast and he said I don't expect u to help me, I wsnt to help u--U have a disease and I read about it and I have to take care of u so we can be together for along time. Then he started to cry and hued me. He sees to much, I know but he's so sweet.
Oh Dork the pictures I see of u'r twins are unbelievable--it's like they were born to be models--I love them, their faces are so pretty.
I know I'm missing some this morning I sure as hell don't mean to cuz u'r all in my heart as special with orayers attached.
BTW is this virtual drinking--no one ever told me that................

Hi mema
Well I had gotten bk from a trip dropped car at rental place no car keys for my car
I flipped no spare key
dealer told me they would make a key for ten dollars this key will only open the car ok....
Get key No key
260.00 for a brand new key because it has a chip in it ok.... Not happy
Im thinking this guy made that first key in two seconds for ten dollars and the 260 one would pron take the same time and the guy gace me the chip code
well guess what my keys were home never had to do that second key
car dealers r rip offs I think

DorKie..I ditto what you said to Cami..including the bitch slap to wake her up
to the fact that she is indeed a HERO!! DorK...strange how the mind works that
it would block out something so tragic and something so simple would sp ark that
memory so many years later.NM....Noha Estah!! Your still putting your clothes out ? Dont they freeze? .
Got my order from Beans the other day....I havent ordered from them in a long
time ...its pricey..however I couldnt avoid it this year...I just love their stuff.No one knows why I got the computer ..its not a gift and IT has no ticket for it. I
recieved no shipping notification and my team leader has no clue but is going to do
some research and see if she can find out. I think its a mistake .Julie...sure is chilly...thanks for the pic to warm me up..Tinkerbell flannel pj's??
Whats the deal with keys lately...what does fob stand for? Im funcused .. And
Orla??? You too. Im keeping a good eyeball on my keys ..sounds like somethings
