    So yesterday I am at KMart, getting ready to walk out the door and these 2 old guys, like good ole boys, are sitting there waiting for their wives to shop I guess and the one says real loud "WHERE'D YA GET THE HAIRCUT?" like I am a skin head or something and I go, "Chemo" he says "WHAT??" I said in a real loud voice CHEMOTHERAPY FOR BREAST CANCER. The look on everyone's face.

    What is wrong with people?

    Good morning everyone Amy to Z! Marsha

    LOL Mizsissy, I don't think these two old guys even know what hip and edgy is! But that is exactly what all my friends and theatre people say. I had my stylist say I could pull this look off forever if I wanted to. I don't want to but it IS fine for right now. LOL

    Good Morning Ladies. Sweet Dreams Peter. Tho I think maybe you might have slept your day away and now you'll be up half the night. Which is just fine and dandy with us cause then we can all play in current time. Still grey outside but not a drop of rain so far. Have an appt with onc this morning to discuss the not breathing properly issue. Then have appt to get my hair cut and colored. Any suggestions? I think I'm tired of what my sister calls the Pippy Longstocking Look aka highlights. Maybe I'll just go with another color altogether. Hmmmm I'll have to figure it out when I get there. Jo, my stylist, is brilliant and always knows what will and will not look good on me.

    Amy, your daddy is at the top of my prayer list again.

    Vicki, good for you. Toxic people should be erased from your life. It's very sad that those people are family but sometimes thats just the way it has to be.
    You went swimming in your nightgown? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA That is just to pickin funny. Good for you. I say tonight do it naked.
    If you decide to take a trip to DisneyLand you most certainly have to go North and visit all the girls up here. I'll meet you in San Francisco.

    Liz, were both getting our hair done today. We'll be new women at PinkStock. I'm praying sis and BIL can figure things out. And that nephew doesn't get himself arrested or worse yet killed. He is mixed up with some really bad people.
    I can't believe that you are doing all the work on the bathroom yourself. You go girl. Your gonna have major muscles.

    Madison, you've already left but I'll say it anyway. Have a great time.

    Charlene, good for SO. That makes me feel good to hear of a Dad that takes care of his family. That is what they are supposed to do. I don't understand BIL either. Stupid Boy!

    Margaret, thanks for tucking me in. I slept like a baby.

    Cheri, hugs to you for your family issues too. Sounds like hubbys family. 10 siblings, 5 boys, 5 girls. This one talks to that one but not to this one and on and on. We had a small family "reunion", for lack of a better word, last summer. Only 3 did not show up and everyone made major effort to not fight with each other. It was actually a pleasant day. I was completely surprised.
    I adore my two sisters. I would be crushed if there was ever conflict between us.

    Nicki, hahahahahahhahhahh I love that penguin.

    Marsha, good for you. Some people are just dumb.

    Off to shower and shave. Say a prayer I have hot water.

    Cheri - You beat me by one .. five girls and two boys in my family and my twin & I are the youngest. Curious, are you still in touch with your brothers? Seems in my family it's the girls that are always conflicting. There have been times where some sisters weren't associating with others but we seem to be in a forgiving period. Or sometimes what I think of as a fake period, that these women would have nothing to do with each other if they weren't related! Somehow I've managed to get on with them all well, but we'll see how things progress since my dx.

    Nicki - I probably wouldn't have said anything either! What causes the Bandwidth Exceeded msg in place of an image? Is that based on the number of images on the page or based on the person's photo who I uploaded?

    Marsha - Ya know, you would Think that old folks would know better but obviously some people just Never learn! Love how you handled it, good for you!

    Shirley - Me too, the young ones should never have to be exposed to that. Hope BIL sees the light and straightens your nephew out. Good luck at the onc and with your hair appt. today!

    Jankay - missed your funnies today!

    Denise - you never came back last night! Hope your visit with the niece went well and annoying man person went to bed early!

    Iris Angel - where are you? Miss you.

    Robin - hoping your not here because you're getting some pain relief. Let us know.

    Vickie - layed on your back watching the fireflys after a late dip in the pool. That sounds very peaceful. Maybe I'll try that one of these nights. Thanks for tucking my babies in last night!

    Thinking of everyone from Amy - Z, have a Wonderful day!

    Ok guys......anyway Vickie life is so difficult and you don't need to have toxic people around you.....if that means you need to distance yourself from one of your sisters or all your family then do it......you have got to keep yourself healthy so you can finish raising Nate and hopefully someday enjoy some grandkids.......I don't have time to say hello to everyone....I am taking a very early lunch and running the youngest daughter to the orthodontist but I will be back this afternoon......love to everyone.....Liz I sure hope your ok......the flooding in OK is horrible.....I can feel your pain.....don't drive thru any high water.......see ya later gators......

    Shokk, I just have one question. What the heck was a cricket doing in the doctors office. A sign indeed!!!
    Glad you got a good report. Think I'm gonna whine about getting a CT today. I'm tired of not breathing.

    Good morning boy & girls. Hope everyone rested well. No more babysitting the rest of the week or at least not for long stretches. They're here anyway though and I just love them. Amber has the next 2 days off so she's spending the time with the boys, she does well in that area.

    Nickster, you'd think employers would be more flexible about giving their employees internet time. You are right I very seldom ever get weepy but I can sure rant & rave that's why I hate those funks so bad because mine affect others, so I really try hard to fight them off.

    Marsha, I bet those two old geezers were sitting there and saw you and commented to each other on how these young whipper-snappers today dressed and wore their hair. Probably wondered what a pretty young thing like you were doin cutting her hair like a 'boy'. Can't you just hear them? I don't think they meant any harm. It's handy to have a sense of humor isn't it? lol

    Jankay, good morning to you.

    Shirley, I've done that with posts before where it says the form is no longer valid and I go back to paste it and there it is!

    Charlene, the family thing. One brother passed away of lung cancer at 38 yrs old. The other brother and I were best friends most all our adult lives. Buddies. He was best friends with my dh as well. He is the wittiest man I know next to dh & we had so much fun. Until he started living with the woman he's lived with for the past 2 years. She's caused lots of problems with my other sisters, too. But I always thought Denny & I would be close forever. She's jealous cos we were just too close. And I do miss him. But since he's been with her he just can't be trusted.

    Iris, I know you're at your folks but thought you might check in for a bit, guess you're busy. Take care.

    Gina, hoping you're feeling better today. You're in my thoughts. Remember that when you get rich beyond your wildest dreams from all the proceeds from all the many books you're capable of writing. What talent.

    Hey to LisaE, Carrie, Brenda, Cherylnc, Cy and everyone from Amy to Z. Wishing you all a glorious day.

    Morning everyone, I have to go buy the tag, title, tax thing for my car today. Then need to do a hopefully final sanding of the bathroom and I'll be ready to Kilz it. Still haven't picked out a color either.

    Sher - I was up half the night stressing over what's going to happen to my hair. It's long now and I'm afriad if we cut it short it will be the poodle again. Can't do the poodle look. It's just not me. Hope the onc can find out what's going on with the breathing thing.

    shokk - thanks for thinking of me. Most of the severe flooding is in the southern part of the state now. Entire towns are covered. So scary and sad. We're okay up here right now except they're calling for more rain. Glad all was well with your visits.

    Cheri - morning kid. We'll figure out something closer to the time. I'm actually going to Branson I think in November with some friends for a girls weekend of shopping. I haven't been there in over 10 years.

    Marsha - I just love your wit. Good for you!

    Madison is going to call me later today to figure out when we're going to meet up. I need a day off. LOL Will take pics if I don't forget my camera - hmmm maybe I'll put it in the car now.

    Okay kids - off to the DMV and then back to work. I'll pop in off and on.

    Hugs
    Liz

    Good morning CG's - I got home yesterday and what a long day it was!!! Israel is 9 hours ahead of Denver. The flight to NY was over 11 hours, then 2 hour layover and 4 more hours home. It took me all day to unpack and do 3 loads of laundry (more to do) and get some stuff at the store. The cupboards were bare, even with the 18 year old at home!!!! The trip was just unbelievable. I am already trying to figure out when I can go back, but I guess, first I need to pay for this trip! We took over 800 picture(all on digital camera, so we can pick and choose what to print) and a friend was kind enough to loan us her cam corder that records on mini-DVD's and we took 9 hours of video. Now need to find the time to go through it all. I have missed everyone here. It was great to come in the front door and see my afghan sitting on my chair in the family room - the first thing I saw. I have not had time yet to go and read any posts. When I left we were on page 560 and now its page 608!!!! Thats almost 50 pages!!!! I don't think I can ever catch up, so may just go back and read the last couple days. But would someone be able to send me a "PM" with an update with how everyone is doing? Just the most important highlights? How is Gina, Cy, Joyce and Kevin, Shel, and I know I am leaving people out who were having some very tough times the latter part of June. I Hope you know its not on purpose, just the ole memory thing. I put a prayer note in the "Kotel" wall(western wall) and said a special prayer for all the CG's. Also said a special prayer at a few other holy sites in Israel. Hugs from Denver and hope everyone is doing well. Thanks in advance to whoever can give me an update on the CG's. Karen

    Good Morning Sisters and Brother,

    Charlene: You are right, I didn't make it back last night! Niece just picked up some stuff for my Mom cuz she is going to see her today. Annoying Man Person went to bed at 9:30p!!!!
    Shirley taught me that phrase and I love it!!
    Wow, you do have a large family!
    I know Audrey is busy, but I'm having my 3 year old GD here Saturday Night.........why don't you ship me Ava for the weekend! I promise to take good care of her and smother her with slobbery kisses!

    Karen: So glad that you are back and that you had a Grand time!! That will be a trip you'll always remember fondly!! Can't wait to see some pics!

    Shirley: Pippy LongStocking! Yikes...........you mean Highlights are out? I want to do something different too, but just don't know what! Good luck with the Onc today, hope they can figure the breathing thing out.
    I hope your BIL comes to his senses...........if he has any senses left. Prayers for your Nephew, sounds like he isn't 'really' a bad person....just fell into some bad choices.
    Thanks for lending me your "annoying Man Person" phrase! Love it, and sometimes it fits perfect! (So glad that I'm perfect and never annoy him!!) Thanks to both you and Vickie for offering to Smack him up a bit!!

    Family: Some families are so close and some aren't. I have a close family with conditions!! 3 of us, all girls and I'm the youngest.. Mom always hates it when I say this but I've always felt like a 3rd. fiddle with my sisters. No fighting, (except younger years with Middle one..WOW), Older one is 8 years older than me and Middle one is 18 months older than me. We all pitch in and help with Mom....but I don't work full time, so it's expected that I do all the running to Appts and such. Older Sis is a very laid back person, Middle Sis is a Moody, Multi personality, say what she thinks person, And Me::::Extremely emotional, get my feelings hurt easy, usually sugarcoat things rather than say what I'm thinking............I've always been the Chunky, fair skinned, blonde!! I have know idea why I wrote that, but I did!! Love them all, but just don't have much in common with them.

    Marsha: Have I told you that I love ya? Your wit and words are always perfect! I can see why you do theater! What idiots people are........you are so beautiful..flash them that smile and they will melt!

    You know, before BC.......I never thought about all the people with bald heads.........Now, I just assume that they have been visited by the beast.

    Anne: I just sent you a pm. Don't make me come looking for you...........let me know if you are okay, please.

    Cheri: Large family, I'd say! Sorry to hear that you have lost one of your brothers and that the other one is being stupid in love....Middle sister has done that a couple of times. Not babysitting..........good, you can still enjoy the boys and have some Cheri time! I'm sure Amber is a good Mother............but she has a GOOD Mother too....One that it is very convenient to take a wee bit of advantage of!! Not an insult.........we all have em!

    Puppy: I do hope all is going well for you. You are in my thoughts and prayers daily.........would love to hear from you when you feel up to it.

    I'll be back in a few...........not even suppose to be home today............that's a whole other chapter!!

    Hugs,
    Denise

    Hi all!

    Welcome home Karen! It sounds like you had a great trip. My mom went to Israel years ago and loved it.

    Shirley, I can't believe your stupid BIL! I'm thinking there was something else under the surface, and he just used this as an excuse to bail. Who knows?

    Vickie, sometimes we just have to get rid of the toxic people in our lives, even if they happen to be family. Joan sounds like a "keeper". My two sisters both live about 45 min. away and I never see them. We always have a great time when we do get together, but it never seems to happen enough.

    Liz, I keep my hair very short now. It grew back wavy, but straightened out for the most part. I kept this annoying little wave just in one section. If I keep it short, it doesn't curl.

    Marsha, I swear, old geezers say whatever pops into their heads. We seem to lose the "governer" on our mouths when we get older . I find myself saying what I really feel about things all the time. When I was younger, I watched my mouth .

    I woke up today feeling better. No sore throat. After about an hour I started feeling bad all over. I decided to do a light workout and now I feel much better. I wonder if the weather has something to do with it. Now I'm waiting for the HVAC guy to come do a check on my air conditioning unit. Just a yearly check, no problems.

    Cheri, did you get that ecard about a million times? Every time I tried to send it, it didn't say it was sent. I didn't think it went through.

    Any word from Puppy yet? Or Mena? And where the heck is Robin???? Do we have to send out the posse?

    Denise, I am the oldest of three girls and the way you describe your family, you could be talking about mine!! My sisters and I are just like you said. Too funny!

    Love to all, bbl!

    Hi AGAIN!

    Jan: You have the week off don't you? Of course that is when the yuckies set in....Murphys law. Glad you are feeling better though.
    The weather is weird! We've been in the mid to upper 90's for days and today it is windy and 68!

    JanKay: Love the new scooter that Z found for you!

    Z: Hope all is going well with work and thanks for "peeking in" on us!

    Shokk: You, of all people know that MIA is not allowed! I'm glad that all your appts went WELL! I know what you are saying about being a pessimist. We should all be happy and shouting with glee when we get the 'all clear.' Why do we always think that they missed something, or it'll show up next time? GOT TO LEARN to take good news, I guess! Love the Cricket story.........why else would a cricket have been in the Docs office!

    Did any of you see the poll that Melissa and Tami have about the BC.ORG next April?

    Mizsissy: Good to see you here and thank you for the updates.

    Cherylnc: Welcome to our home! A great group of friends await your every post! I am so sorry to hear that you lost your DH. Come and sit for a while.

    Iris: I was getting worried. Cheri just said that you were at your Folks visiting. Miss you around here!

    Cherryl: Do I see you peeking over boxes? Sorry that Pinky whimped out on you...........Dang thing is still sitting here staring at me.


    Thought.............Does anyone know what happened to Laura. Not Peanutsgirl...........but the Laura that was having the Hubby trouble.

    Deb: Hope your weepies have gone away, and that you are enjoying some you time with the girls away at camp! Thank you for sharing the beautiful prayer with us yesterday.

    Liz: A curly Gene Wilder! I've always said that I would kill for curly hair, and all the curlies I know, hate it! My hair is so stick straight that I have to curl it everyday or it looks hidious! Well, atleast you will get a break from the bathroom while you're getting a new look!

    Nicki: Glad that going back to work was good for you! Sounds like your friend is regretting her words.........good for you for acting like nothing happened.

    Vickie: Swimming in your NightGown at 10p!! You go girl!
    The rustling in the woods would have sent me flying too! We have a hot tub on our deck....(that we hardly used last year) and I'm always looking for what is lurking in the dark woods behind us! Hope you are having a better day today. Sorry you had to 'dismiss' some of your Family.........but Toxic family is no better than Toxic Waste.

    How nice of Margaret to invite you out! Hope you can swing it. Download "Ding"..through Southwest Airlines. They notify you of specials all the time. I missed the first offer, but a week later it was back and I was able to book flts for my Son and Fiance for $65.00 one way from Phoenix to Michigan!

    Madison is on her way to Oklahoma to visit DD and $et her internet up!! And is going to meet Liz!! You'll have a great time Dee.....Enjoy!

    Amy: Prayers for your Dad. Sorry he has weakened again. Are they still planning Heart Surgery or just waiting to see how he does?

    So many more: Colleen, Betty (at conference), Sheri, Robin, Joyce, Jeannie, Lisa, LisaE (where the heck are you?), Cy, Gus, Alwayshope, Ishop(Sue), Puppy, Pam, Peter, Margaret, Theresa, Susan (job hunting?), Gina, Mena and all of you....

    Hugs,
    Denise

    Back from docs. He says he's pretty sure I have allergy induced asthma. Say could be from the bats but the only way to figure that out is to get rid of the bats and see what happens. Gave me an inhaler (albuteral) and sending me to pulmonologist. Yippee another ist to add to the list. Anywhos all the test show there is nothing wrong with my lungs. The air is in there I just can't feel it apparently. And the ticker is working like it's supposed to so we'll hang with this theory till something better comes along.

    Charlene, bandwidth exceeded? is that why half the pics this morning were the dreaded little boxes with red x's in them?

    Shokk, you are well, you are strong, you are a Circle Girl. Rejoice.

    Vicki, thanks for holding my hand. Everyone was amazed at the magic carpet.

    Cheri, isn't that the oddest thing. I am very sorry to hear about your brother. So young. Very very sad.

    Liz, stressing over your hair is not good. Do you have a good hair stylist? She should be able to tell you what your hair will or won't do. And she should be up front about it. Mine will tell me "No that would look stupid and I won't do it" I'm thinking I might want to go pixie short today. Not sure tho. I love what the hair sytlist guy on What Not To Wear says......Hair is an accessory and should be changed often.

    Karen, welcome home. And thank you for the prayers. Can't wait to see the pics. One of these days Israel is on my list.

    Denise, glad I could help you out with the phrase. It does fit sometimes. OK it fits most of the time but we love them anyway.
    I don't think highlights are "out". I'm just bored with them. Have had them since last october and need a change. Not to mention way to high maintenance.
    Families are a trip indeed. My older sis and I are 18mth apart. We used to have some doozy knock down drag out fights. Usually over me wearing her clothes. But hey, she had a job and had great taste. now she is the ultimate mom and so totally uncool it isn't funny. Her 14 year old daughter is the same size as me and whenever I go to visit she raids my suitcase and I raid her closet. No cat fighting involved. I love being the "cool" auntie.
    My little sis is 10 years younger than me and grew up with her mothers family here in California so we didn't really get to know each other till we were adults.

    Z, remember.....breath deep and don't let the stress get to you. It only causes wrinkles.

    Jan, stupid BIL indeed. I'm sure there are deeper issues than just the kidlet. As the saying goes "It takes two to tango". Tho looking thru the window you would have thought they were the perfect couple. I do hope he comes to his senses not only for the sake of his marriage but mostly because he is not doing his son any favors by condoning his behavior.

    Denise, thanks for the tip about Ding. Gonna go look it up.

    CherylinC, you got rain? I am soooo jealous. We had major grey skies and "severe weather warnings" since yesterday but not a drop. Last couple of hours the sun is out, the sky is blue, and the temps are climbing once again.
    I saw that doggie last night. Poor thing swimming in that frigid water. Tho it didn't look like he was bothered by it all.

    Good afternoon everyone,

    I will get some pics of maine on here soon, I promise but havent had time to even get totally unpacked much less work with my pictures.

    Dad is much worse than yesterday. I was there at the 1:00 visit and the 5 visit and he knew me and would somewhat talk and now he doesnt even know he is in the world. I honestly think he has some type of chemical imbalance with meds going on but I'm not a nurse but my dad takes nothing at all, never! If he does it 1/2 of an alka seltzer and that cures what ails you. Bloodwork has been good but he started running a slight fever this morning so now his white blood count is elevated a bit and they are figuring out what its from. I'm so down and out about it I just dont feel like me at all. I hate feeling helpless!

    Thanks to everyone that is thinking of my nephew and my dad. I greatly appreciate it. I have some pictures that my nephew has emailed me so I will attach those to show "Life in Balad".

    Amy

    Cheri - I'm so sorry to hear about your younger brother passing away of lung cancer and at such a young age .. my deepest sympathies, that's so sad. That's a real shame about your other brother too. It's apparent how much you miss him. Glad to see you're getting some time off and Amber will be with the boys!

    Liz - what does Kilz mean? I'm too lazy to look it up right now! lol

    Karen - wow, what a fantastic trip and welcome back!

    Denise - Gotta love the phrases Shirley comes up with! lol
    awww, I know you would take such good care of Ava! Enjoy your GD!

    Shirley - Allergy induced asthma .. no fun but thankfully the lungs and ticker are good. I believe the allergy shots Audrey gets is all that keeps her from getting asthma. Apparently when too many pics are posted those nasty red x's appear!

    Shokk - wow, you Should be so proud of your youngest! What does she play, how old is she? Can you go to China with her? How exciting!

    Peter - Good Morning! What are you doing up so early??

    I need to shower but used all the hot water doing laundry so here I am!

    Okay ladies, Audrey comes to me today and says, "I may get in trouble for this but I need to tell you anyway .. I found the hole." I thought, "uh oh", but I said, "What hole sweetie?" and she said, "the one that poop comes out of!". Then she said, "I stuck my finger in the hole .. tee hee!". I said, "You mean in YOUR hole?!" and thank goodness she said yes to that! She knows all about private parts and the hands to yourself rules. I explained to her again about germs and spreading bacteria and made sure she washed up good and told her that she shouldn't do that anymore because she may hurt herself, all very nice and understanding. Of course she was not in trouble for it .. she's so dang inquisitive though! So how would YOU all have handled it? I couldn't help but laugh about it (not around her though!).

    Hey to Z, Jan, and CherylnC and all the rest of the beautiful CG's!
