INSOMNIACS place to talk in the wee hours

loveoflife, I hope it all goes well with your surgery.

Hello to all, very belated Mothers Day to all....need to catch up, busy with the move, helping out at a golf tourney..( not playing ).

Ms Chevy and Jazzy....thinking about you

snuck in the back door.....

typing on my Iphone, so can't do long post. Happy to hear u had a wonderful day with family. Wish I live near flower gardens. You are blessed. I had a good day. Both of my girls woke up 1 hour b4 their usual time to make me breakfast...gluten free pancakes with eggs and a fruit platter .So sweet of them. It's not easy to prepare gf pancake. They gave up their sleep!!! It is usually very hard to get them up on Sunday morningsfor church. Hope u r in dream land by now cuz it took me 15 min to type this on the phone. Good nite...

Loverly! How can you type on your PHONE?

You mean you just type on the numbers? And then you pick up the receiver, and there is a screen in there, and that's how? Haaaaaaaaaahah! We HAD one of those when I was little... And party-lines too... And our # was 0753... THAT'S how old I am! You are going under the knife WEDNESDAY? I don't know anything about that surgery, but I will be in your pocket... Wear something with pockets, and write my name on a piece of paper.. and I will be with you.... okay? And then as soon as you get home, let us know .... And make your driver stop and get you a chocolate coke and a big juicy burger!

Okay, and SASS! Good lord you made it out alive! He beHAVED!

And Rosie, don't give her any ideas..... I told her she can't marry that ner-do-well (orhoweveryouspellthat) He might be nice and all, and whatEVER, but neither she nor my Daughter can marry these people! They can only keep them around as helpful friends.... that's it! When you need your furnace fixed, call THEM.... or pictures hung... stuff like that.

Rosie, that sounds sooooooo good!

YES! SNOW! But I don't think it hurt my plants.... Can't tell yet... We are soooooooo lucky to not be around those Tornado's!

I watched that rescue last night, on the Weather channel, about those 2 morons who thought their pick-up truck could swim across rising water! It was all filmed live! Finally that military Black-hawk Helicopter came to rescue them....! I would have drug them through the river awhile, just to knock some sense into them. Hope they have to PAY for that rescue.... That one dip-chit was shown on his PHONE while he sas on top of the truck.... they intercepted his tweets, etc!

Cute little OWL Loverly! Have a great day gals!

Loveroflife- good luck with your final preparation for this week and we will be in your pocket on Thursday. It will be good to be on the other side of that TE being out. I did not have that, but my sister did and she was glad when it was gone.

Winter seems to have moved on through and it should be back to the 70s today! It is a beautiful morning starting out here, and I spent some time on the patio to meditate and do some journaling before my day gets going.

Chevy- are you warming up too?

Thanks Jazzy!!! It's actually this Wednesday. Can't wait to be at the end of this process. The tissue expander is not the most comfortable thing.

Ms. Chevy, if the plastic surgeon gives me a double D or if he makes me lopsided, could you come out of my pocket and yell at him for me? Can't do the heavy DD because I will fall over flat on my face. They will sit me up to make sure I'm even. Just make sure you don't fall out when they do that. I am so disappointed that I won't be awake to suck in my stomach to make itlook flatter when they do that. Btw, I love the video. Love her feistiness

Jaz- thanks.. glad that is over with for 6 weeks. I need to learn complaining doesn't help. Ah the games in cancerland, never can tell how the board is played, it's depressing. Going to the oncologist always puts me in a funk. Blondie's onc did scans to decide where she was in regards to hospice.

Just got an email from the folks who monitor water pressure up at the cabin. I guess our big water holding tank and the spring that feeds it is only 1/4 full. There has not been enough rain, run off or snow pack to fill it. It could seriously run dry by the summer or when everyone is up at the cabins on holiday weekends. In 8 years this has never happened. The drought is seriously even hitting Oregon, on the Western rainy side! Oy I am shocked. Conservation is the key until the rains return. Here it is not even June and the lake it 1/2empty and the springs running low. So poor old CA isn't the only state with water issues! Just saw the news and our snow pack is 11% of normal, the highest snow pack anywhwere in Oregon is 13% of normal and the Southern Klamath Falls area the snow pack is ZERO. What the heck are we going to do in August and September?? OY folks. WOW. Water is life treat as nectar of the Gods!

Be well ya'll.

Rose, how did you sneak above me...back door just like HI1?? Man, I need to learn how to type faster. It is like texting. If you don't get your message in fast enough, you have to re-do everything. Sometimes I have to go back to my post and edit because of that. Boy, what do you do with your situation? Choose quality of life or weather the terrible side effects of drugs with no guarantee. SIGH. With my first pathology report it came back as DCIS. Upon the request of another oncologist( we know him personally) to exam different area of the tissue sample, they found microinvasion; but, because it is in a small area no chemo or radiation is warranted. I am ER/PR- so can't take SERMs like Tamoxifen. Herceptin only gives you one year of protection( while you are on it) per another oncologist. That leaves me no insurance for recurrence. Don't get me wrong, I am grateful I don't have to do chemo or take any meds, but just the thought of not being protected from possible rogue cells that wasmissed. I have been having bone pain on and off the last few weeks possibly due to changes in the weather, but boy you know that thought in the back of your head sometimes doesn't give you peace. Yes, that is another thing that cancer robs you of....peace.

No nice garden near Sacramento that I know of. I heard about the one in San Francisco and I have been to the one near San Jose.

My girls are 16 and 12...teenagers already!!!!!

Morning girls! So now SEE? Spookie is going to wake up any day now, and comment on me just posting a link! She will infer that I am sluffing off, and ridiculousness stuff like THAT!

But you must note, that SHE doesn't even stop by when she CAN! If I had a glass of water, I could go over there and pour it on her head and get that lazy bones OUT of bed! At least I'm HERE!

uh, mumble, stumble. Water? Huh? Chevy has snow brain.

Hi gals.... Morning Spookie.... I mean good-afternoon almost...Ha!

Yes, Cammi posts on the drinking thread... appropriately enough, and she sounds okay! Sometimes I see her on FB, or when I email her and raise 3 kinds of hedoubleL, and then she sends a link or something back.... She has a lot on her plate.... er, phone, and I think she is still fighting with that....

I'll track her down pretty soon!

chirp chirp

You want bright eyes and bushy tail, get a squirrel.

Oh wait. That's Chevy!!

Loveroflife- that reminds me of shopping at Walmart! Where it all hangs out!

Good luck tomorrow, hoping things go smoothly for you.
