MORNING OWLETTES ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL DAY!0 -
DBF came home from Autozone. They told him where the part went. It was the cover for the thing he fixed. Poor guy he had to take the whole thing apart AGAIN and put it back together.

Hi, ladies been away for awhile, hubby took me on a much appreciated, short cruise. Have not read back, hope everyone is well. It's 6 am here and I've been up for 3 hours. In pain, I think I hate Arimidex, anyone else taking it? Have a good day ladies, I am ready for a nap now, but have my grandsons here and have to get them ready for school so that will have to wait.

Roll call! Great idea. I'm still here, but the past week has been pretty much lost in chemo haze. This was the worst yet. I'm just starting to feel human again... Well, maybe half human. Chevy, have a safe journey home. So glad you got to have lunch with the FL gals. Great pic of y'all.
Sassy, I feel for you with DBF. My BIL always fancied himself a handyman, but everything he touched eventually fell apart. I remember when he put up a ceiling fan with lights in their cathedral ceiling den and it crashed and self-destructed. But he never learned. Because, men.

Sassy, thanks for the great photo to start my day off on the right note.
Ok, this is the roll call I have. IF I'm missing someone or "also known by" name, please send me a PM. Just trying to do the best I can. I don't think I'll have time to go back and see when the last time Owlettes have posted, way too time consuming.

Just wondering why this thread keeps getting knocked off my favorites.

Probably because back to top and remove from my favorite topics are very close together. Anyone else hit submit when they wanted back to top?

Hi all, just checking in. This is my "off week from A/C. I have my third on Monday. Feeling pretty good. Took a drive with hubby today. Leaves are beautiful. Stopped at a farm stand then home to make squash soup. Yummy! If any of you did taxol after A/C how did those sides compare? Love, Jean

So miss the companionship not having a significant other, miss nit going place.
Hope everyone is ok

Ah, Blondie.....wish things were different for you.....hugs friend...
Zjrose/Jean, yes, I had A/C & then Taxol. I thought Taxol was easy compared to A/C. ( horrid red devil ). I did have bone pain with Taxol, but still a cake walk compared to A/C....I did both dose dense, so only had 4 infusions of each. I am guessing you will get it weekly, for 12 weeks?
Patty, I think Jwoo emailed her..I think she said she was ok. Sorry you are hurting...Pain is so exhausting....

got back very late last night from Detroit through Chicago. Hour delay, not bad considering. Still tired but will catch up tonight.
We went to a sewing expo. This friend taught and had a booth to sell her book she just finished in August.
This friend entered a Passion for Fashion contest and won first place out of 11 contestant. This was her second attempt. They don't know what they will be making until Friday morning, then they have a day and a half to make their outfit. This year was a creative wedding dress based on a theme they chose. She pick masquerade. She was given black lace and the beige under fabric you see. This is a mini halter dress with a draping attached train and a hooded cape from netting. She even did the makeup mask on the model. Ruth is standing at the back, then dancing with her after she found out she won.

OMD------------so glad Spookie came up with OH MY DOG-OMD. well then I guess we should do OMC OH MY CAT. Either way like them. Less VALLEY......Smarrty---I thought you were into quilts? Fashion clothes? Were you at ____OMD can't think the thingy downtown Detroit. I grew up there. Found it(memory flash)--Cobo hall? Hmmm no clue why they called it Cobo Hall........Had to do with a mayor I think. It was the big and still is the convention center.
Was right there at the end of Woodard when the riot of 1967 started.
At the end of Woodward, a car drew up to our side and was threatening . Four black guys in doo rags. I said something to them---I don't remember the words. But they drove on. Must have been good b/c they drove on. Four of use, out to dinner. Clueless. Great dinner. Waiter said "Ya'll be careful now." I thought that strange. Then driving on the John Lodge Expessway, we saw fires, we saw people. We decided to take a long way expressway route. Got back to Grand River and Fenkel. Found out there was a riot.
The parents had all been in contact. Detroit was in distress for the next couple weeks. It was a mess.
Edit: Detroit was one of the worst places to be in the changing times of 60's, pre and post. Had there not been such discrimination of black, white, hill, melting pot. Now our living together is common, but then folks delineated by the street you lived on. The car that sided us that night, they were looking for a fight. What I said--Dunno. What they saw was four teenagers dressed up--obviously on a date.
Smarrty, so, hope you found my dear Detroit in much better straights
(yes, I know it's in trouble, but they keep trying)0 -
sass, yes I do quilts, also clothes, not as much right now since I can buy stuff that fits me now. We flew in and out of Detroit. The convention hall was in Novi.
Welcome to the newbies. Enerva, good for you with the new job.

Enerva congrats on all of it

Smarrty, Novi explains all:)--------Novi developed after I left in 1972, It was good access from airport and good access from expressway. It opened up a whole thing>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dear brother was in an area considered way outside of Detroit. As I visited over the years, I saw how the development grew. It was typical of any megalopolis, except the center was dying. Ford would have figured a plan if he were alive. Bummer.Diversification of resources was an outcome of WWII. Concentration of certain industries in areas around the country, left the USA vulnerable. One of the post WWII, things was diversification. Problem, now is technology. What is, too frequently becomes what was in such a short time.
De Tocquiville in "On America" in 1851, described America as a throw away society. What he didn't identify is the inventiveness .That's why things were thrown away. We found better ways of doing things.
The second thing that De'T documented was "Americans if they don't agree with a law simply don't follow it"
How does his thoughts apply here................That's us.............too many ways to describe, but Americans truly are a PITA
We as BC people don't accept the status quo. We have the internet, we can walk into any docs office and say...........

This is DH and both Grand-sons... I cropped myself right out of this thing! I wish there were some way of saying to the "crop" feature, "Can you please take off about 20 pounds from the one in red?"
