    Garden Gumpy, the hike is 11- 12 miles, depending on if you are camping, staying in a cabin, hopping on a boat. It is down hill all the way, but not really easy. 

    I would love to go 1/3 the way down, and then hike back up. Or maybe 1/4. The hike back up would be challenging. It's so hot..

    They have mules, which I thought would be terrifying. Seeing it, made it look more doable. There are lots of options to see and spend time on Colorado River and see the Grand Canyon. BIL & SIL went to that glass lookout on the Indian reservation, that's out of the way & seems spendy. They said it was amazing.

    Chevy .....

    "Morning Wren and Tang! Pawprint! Okay, if we have a pet snake, we will keep her in a cage.."

    No, Chevy. NO SNAKES. No roaming slithering snakes, no pet snakes, no stuffed snakes, no snakes in a cage, NO SNAKES IN THE DOGHOUSE. But at the partay, you can do everybody's hair.

    OK Chevy I understand Hole better, she's talking about the Grand Canyon I was there once amazing but scared chitless, I went with my ex and I thought oh he could think of a good way to get me to fall into it. So I couldn't enjoy it. Chevy u'r borderline, but it's not genius, but I think we all know that by now. But don't feel bad most of us are.--- I had to change purses.  to get rid of chit that I carry around--I always keep my lists of meds and med stuff, then crap. I never read them myself but I did today to get rid of things, my Card. wrote I had an aneurism and some aorta thing, see this is why I don't read my reports really, I know mentally it's all right but emotional  I don't like those words. Well that got thrown out with another paper I didn't like the words. it's in the computer so that's good enough--See Chevy that's the mind of a genius, picking and choosing what u want to know--and I know NOTHING. AND I can block them out completely.

    It's rainy today and that's fine with me oh I still smell like Vanilla pudding, I got hungry and licked some off, but for the most part it's still there.

    Another thing, I ffinally ordered a cane,, it's decorated with red, white and blue, but I have to get a stamp which will probably take forever. I know it's time and for some reason, --don't know why--I'm fighting it. It's really mostly for a step or 2 if I come across it, it's not my knees, it's my whole body I just fall over, of course I can be rolled the rest of the way, but I prefer not to be. So maybe this will help.?????? I was thinking about a folding cane, but I figured it would fold while I was using it.

    My job so far is quiet today and it's Monday so we'll see how the rest of the day goes. OK I've moaned enuff so I'll be back when I choose.

    Cammi!  WHAT the HELL are you talking about ????  Okay, I got the cane part....  But what do you mean a "stamp???"    You mean a ....  oh, forget it, I can't even begin to decipher THAT one!  I don't have a "stamp".... not with my cane....  But put your name and phone number on it.... that's so if some guy finds it, he can call you and take you on a date!    That's always been my hope anyway....  Borderline?  Borderline WHAT?  Youi are a Lilshit, just like Lilshit! 

    And Lilshit!  What's wrong with nice, smooth, cute little snakes?  I suppose you don't like worms either?   I'm bringing my pet snake anyway...... Okay, I'll do your hair.... but you will look like ME!  Ha, ha!

    This is a pic of my friend I took to the body shop for a new hip.  I pimped her ride for her while she was on the pain meds.  It even had a cup holder and a non-breakable wine glass with a lid for traveling!!!

    (shhh dont tell her I posted her pic!)  Thought you girls would enjoy the decorations on the walker.  I thought of Chevy the whole time I was being crafty!!

    That's not me Cami.  I do have two pillars in my bedroom and my DH agreed to replace them with brass poles though.  That was an easy remodel argument!  Wonder why??

    morning 4sew..you sound good...when you start trash talking we know you are feeling better...

    Cami, you want to be a zorber, or be in a zorb ball, lil Joey can just roll you around. Have ya seen those? You are in a bubble ball? I am trying to post an pic, but my skills with the posting photos or images seem to come & go...this is not CODE talk....you really could be a bubble girl...lol...

    thx 4...

    We could get one, take it to "our" dog house, Chevy could update our hairdo, so we all look like Chevy, and take turns rolling around in Camis new toy. 

    Then give it to Joey... Buy Cami a real stable cane, but Camster you could use the Zorb on special occasions. When you want to make a dramatic entrance...

    Blessings for our Mary and her family, Frank is her husband, Rachel is her daughter,and Jordan was her GS that she wrote about all the time. I've forgotten her son's name. One of the happy memories of Mary was how she wrote about DS's wedding and all the planning. The wedding was on a farm and the barn was the reception area. It was a hoot reading Mary's descriptions of everything from the engagement on till after the wedding. L&P's Mary and Thanks, sassy

    Chevy the colorado thing was a made up word LOL, but it works :) Staright---straight-----sorry, I know ziggy doesn't believe I proof read. But OH well. It's hard being a two finger typer that has to look at the keys. Sometimes one finger get's ahead of the other finger.Then in proofing, I miss things. I suppose since I do use medical words it does make it hard LOL b/c you are trying to figure out is it a typo or a word........Yes that is a real problem. 

    Chevy that's exactly why I do so much teaching here, to help you and everyone know what should be the right thing, so, you can PROTECT yourself from being harmed. Regretfully, to many errors are made. 

    RE:DBF now being a happy DBF---the way I wrote it was "Dini was now a very happy Dog and DBF is too" Literal translation could be DBF was now a very happy dog. That's why I added >That DBF is now a very happy DBF.

    BUT your interpretation is correctSillyHeart, and so is DGFSinging

    Nettie sorry you aren't feeling well. But "down low" has taken on a new definition. It's slang meaning is "men that are living their lives as heterosexuals, but having homosexual sex. They would deny that they are homosexual or bisexual" as defined by IceT on Law and order SUV. This one has probably got you falling off your chair ROTFLOL.

    Maddy, yes, glad we didn't have too send out the finding police. I was looking for your phone number yesterday and got distracted. I'm Glowing until July 25th 2014. The law requires that the patient be given a discharge card or letter that includes all the type of radiation thing that was used and the END date of glowing. Reason is I can set of radiation detectors until that date. Not likely as it get real close to that date, but you know laws.

    The NRC guy described a situation in NY where an elderly(?, I didn't ask age) lady was discharged after her hospital stay. She took a bus. They entered a tunnel. She set off the alarm at the beginning of a tunnell. At the end of the tunnel when the bus exited, there were responders already there. They found her by using a gieger counter, pulled her off the bus and interrogated her. Can you imagine? Wonder she didn't have a heart attack. But she had her letter with her, but at first she forgot about it.

    Should it really take 3 hours for me to figure out that the audio book that I ordered just flat won't work for me?  I suck!  But other than that, I'm great!

    I love Chevy and Cammi inside the rubber balls.  Insulated from the world but still able to wreak havoc along the way.  And just imagine a giant jacks game!

    Yes a giant jacks game like the giant chess game. Is that in Alice in Wonderland? Just be careful not to roll yourself over a cliff.

    OK tired of summer weather. I like my curtains open but having to hibernate from the west sun the 1st week of May is the pits. But I hate high elec. bills worse.

    Sassy - I remember the barn wedding discussion. What boots could/would Mary wear? I believe it turned out lovely after all. Did we see pictures or was that somebody else's wedding?

    littlegoats, can't remember if Mary had pics. ChrissyB's daughter got married close to the time and she had oddles of pics. Same type of wedding on a farm.  One in the USA, one in Australia. Mary ended up having a wonderful time :)

    This is a link to a thread that NICKY from France started, but she hasn't been on since she started the thread March 12th 2014. Many from here have posted, but in case someone missed it :)

    It's the age old saying for me today "Sick and tired of feeling sick and tired!"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Just found out from DS that some of my issues could be from the mega doses of Decadron given during chemo!  Go figure!!  More side effects from the treatment that I had to take!!  Well I guess I didn't "have" to take it, but what was the alternative???

    Guess I should go research what Decadron can do to me!!

    I could NEVER be inside one of those ball thingys  -  I'm much to claustrophic!  But they do look fun!  I have to psych myself up just to ride in an elevator!

  • sas-schatzi
    sas-schatzi Posts: 15,889

    Nettie, Decadron-----think of these words when studying the drug :(-----speed, flying without a plane, 3 pots of coffee and that was just in the last few hours, talking non-stop for hours and hours, up for 24-36 hours in a row, awake and no one's on Insomnia thread.

    Nettie BTW go back a few posts and find my post to you. I think it will have you laughing. I hope :)

    Oh Sassy You're so right. It was Chrissy B's daughter's wedding. I can still see the barn and the tables in the room. I told Mary to see if she could find pics of "As the World Turns" barn weddings, Christmases. They were famous for using them.

  • sas-schatzi

    LMG's ChrissyB Dd wedding was beautiful. Chrissy had done all the tables and made the dreamcatchers.  I'll get the link

    Oh I remember both weddings and Mary made us laugh thru the whole prep for it, cuz of cowgirl boots. And we took it from there--we all had a good time with her wedding prep, and Chrissy was totally making everything and turned out beautiful.

    Hey I would mind the balls (shut up Chevy) if I just layed down and rolled, it would be easier than walking but u guys would make sure we went the scenic route and would make sure we could look down at the surroundings-Yikes an accident right? Forget about it. Don't fall for this Chevy, they think they can get rid of us and the headline would be-----Virginal bubble ladies, break their bubbles.--Chevy and I are way to smart for that. Well now way to smart, but we're not that stupid, maybe.

    OK I see my new Urologist at the end of the month--I'm on my anti-biotics now so it can wait--it's the most convenient place from here at the hospital and the one Dr. was reading about her and said she went to Harvard, Yea probably Harvard, Samoa but I told her if she really went to Harvard then my original Dr. can be in the dust, she laughed but I meant it. She just used her medical terms of to much stuff in my urine and it's not good hahaha plus an infection (bacteria)--I love when they speak medical talk.

    Cami, Yay knew doc..............Yes, Mary's talk of the wedding in the barn was hilarious from the first post about it, until the wedding was over.

  • camillegal
    camillegal Posts: 15,710

    Oh I remember "down Low" Ice T was talking to one of the detectives and used that term and they said like what and he kind of explained it and used it when he was talking to a suspect--U think I watch enough TV.?

    Yes I have another d. but it's a GIST--u remember CardioloGIST, oncoloGIST etc, now a uroloGIST

    =so we'll see
