    PattyPepper, doing the happy dance you are home where you belong. Your boys are sleeping better, I believe. Thanks for posting the photos of them awhile back. My DS was my rock during my Cancer treatments. He was 30-31, so could do all sorts of things your handsome young men can't do yet. Try not to overdo, difficult, I know. It's going to take time to get back. ..scary stuff being in the hospital that long......hard funk ? Very few people have weathered the horrific storms you have. We are here for you, all the time. Good, bad & ugly.

    Sas, thanks for checking in & keeping us in the loop. Sorry things have been rough with DBF....time will tell.

    Spookie, you said Publix had it bogo all week. Does that mean a bargain ?

    Mags, that is the best news!  I was in OKC last week and thought of you. So knew you would kick ass. And Patty, I'm usually just a reader on  here, but I'm so grateful you are home!  ThumbsUp

    Aw, mema, wish I'd have known. If you come again, we must meet!

  • Mags, Congrats!! A great thing to have in the rear view mirror! And you can't really shoot men, but you can reload to scare them a little!

    YAY Mags. Onto bigger and better things

    Thank you Mags HI1, Beachie All.. I'm fine. Sounds strange, I suppose. Relieved that he no longer has this home as his address. He has a history. Didn't like my name or property associated with that history. I relented last year b/c he lost his job and apartment. So, this fixes that. Whatever follows will be okay. No clue what each day will be. A nice feeling, also strange, is I don't have any concerns that if I need help, he will be there.

    Blondie, did you go home? Out of pills? If you are at the nursing home the nurses only need to make a phone call. The patch is very nice. Much nicer than the pills IMHO. The patch didn't make me spacey and took care of the pain very nicely. Then you can have pills for breakthrough.  HUGS

    Foots HUGS for your prayers :)

    Good Morning gals...

    https://www.youtube.com/embed/h3LeVGOBjSg?feature=player_embeddhttps://www.youtube.com/embed/h3LeVGOBjSg?feature=player_embedded

    This is so neat... A panorama video....

    Yes Sass.... I love it! Okay... It's "smoke gray".... Hah! I won't break it.... ever.

    And so what is this? He's really "gone" again? You kicked his butt out and had sex? And he LEFT???? He pulled his pants up and left????

    What am I missing here? It is not.... "over".... that is just another way of saying....

    "Okay babes.... I'll be back whenever, just keep that extra ice-cream in the freezer, and clean sheets on, and a red-light in your window, and I'll cross that Welcome mat and see you whenever!!"

    I have to translate what you just almost said.... So he has moved a few things out? And insurance is involved, dinner was swell, car checked... took out the trash.... and then you "laid down"? ...And rules were discussed, meaning something????

    Sass you left the door open.... ajar.... It is not over.... just taking a break.

    And Dini is trying to figure you two out! He is baffled.... I will just make a little wager with you.... and then you will say.... to yourself.... "she was right... we can't live too long without each other.... we are both crazy about each other, but he is a dink, and I know it, and I will just go through this every so often, because I would rather have him part of the time, than none at all."

    And where does he GO? I would check on that.... I would make him wear an ankle monitor.... like Phyllioutofthebighouse wears. Or not let him back in your life and heart until he has been PURGED! Or like new again.

    No Jazzy.... she just loves him.... that's all. Can't live together, but doesn't matter. They will always be in each other's lives.

    Yes Teka.... Our dogs OWN us....

    HiHo.... I think it means Buy one, get one maybe 1/2 price or free... ! I wish we had a Publix here.... I really like the one by DD's home in Orlando.

    Hi Mags... Happy for you! No more Rads! But at least you could sleep???

    Hey Mema.... Just post here too... We love "new" gals! You are just beginning "this stuff".... right? Was the Arimidex tough on your joints? That's what I've heard anyway.... I stopped Tamoxifen after 1 1/2 years.

    Beaches.... We can't shoot em? Who's idea is this? There was a story on the news just now.... Seems some guy spray painted "My wife is a cheater" on his house, then it blew up! Guess they have a good idea of Who did THAT!!!!!

    Sass! What do you mean? He has a history? Is he some felon or something? He sounds like a wanderer.... I see those guys on Judge Judy all the time.... He needed you in more ways than one!

    I will tell you like I tell Janie.... "Honey, it's fine to be friends with him, but thank GOD you have more sense than to live together."

    Okay Sass.... I know you're up.... you really okay? We can talk right here... wait.. I gotta go refill my coffee....

    Oh wow MammaRay... I'm so sorry.... Nothing worse than having something wrong with your kids.... Yes.... a special prayer for you and your Son.... xoxo

    Morning Chevy, I was bumping housekeeping threads. I haven't been doing them for awhile. OF COURSE, you are right on everything except sex was first. Yes, I have made all these rules now. I could be really naïve, but I don't think he strays. He's to afraid of disease. LOL.

    Julie put this on page 408 of Warm & Fuzzies

    I followed in the next two boxes with this:

    "To DBF during sex, I want an orgasm. Him- I gave you one last week" me."yeah, guess I was delusional too."

    I thought it was hysterical. DBF and I talked about it yesterday. I asked him how in the world could he say something so stupid? He responded that he didn't know what to say and it just fell out. I told him it's now a rule. I'm no longer the girl he lives with, I'm the girl he visits and has to make happy. Big difference.

    There are other rules, but they are practical------well the first rule is very practical. The other rules are boring.

That's a start right. I'll take it. Got the curtained open looking for sun but it's a rainy day. Think ill color my own darn rainbow and tape it to the window. So there Mother Nature ! I will be strong and I will stand and I will enjoy looking at the sun period ....

    Pans eith kids so I can freeze what we don't want know it was : turnip soup ( haven't tried that yet ) homemade chicken pot pot , chicken spaghetti with queso , enchiladas , Italian bread , red pot with cheesy onions , cake , dried snap peas ( yum yum ) lunchable case I don't feel like getting up dh git me all setup for the day alone. Oh yeah chicken salad with bread for sams. Yummy. Was a huge help and major thankful when they come thru.

See all the hands raised Sass? Sheesh! So I sent that same Unicorn one to my girls....! Great minds think alike..... SOMEtimes...Loopy

    Patty- so glad you are home and doing better today. Feeling able to stand on your own two feet is huge! You are on the mend girlfriend. And what a wonderful thing your friend filled your fridge with food for you and your family. What would we do without our friends. As the Beatles always said "I get by with a little help from my friends....."

    This one is for you!

    Get by with a little help from my friends

    HI1 I've had this Blenko for ages. Trying to get DS to take stuff is like pulling teeth. He doesn't see art glass, or history......... same as with this Krome Kraft martini shaker. I have to convince him they have value versus him seeing they have value. Doesn't bode well for all my stuff.

    POOF the blenko disappeared

    Beachie, It's crazy. I've seen him more in the last 38 hours than in along time. He just left. Did a yard fix thing---Dini chasing a lizard>>tore out the border. Suppose to go to dinner again tonight. Okay. This is better than the last breakups.......Usually took him near a week.

    Spookie I was scrolling for something else, found this page. These were items designed by Hawkes. Checkout the prices.

    http://cocktailshakers.com/hawkes_glass.htm

    Spookie, I'm going to keep adding links to this box. This is a very good description of American Brilliant Cut--ABC glass. If I'm right about your glass pieces being ABC. You will see that ABC glass wasn't made after 1917.

    http://www.cutglass.org/articles/whatisabp.htm

    I first skimmed the article to make sure all the elements were there re: ABC hx. Then went back and read the whole thing. It's the best short rendition I.ve read. Even if your pieces aren't Hawkes. I think you will have a different feeling toward the pieces :)
