    Thanks Lisa, but I feel the same way you do--"Yikes!!!!  Look at my big 'ol head!!!"  LOL!!!

    Okay, I'm really going to jump on the treadmill now before the desire goes away completely.

    Oh Ulla, you are a beautiful queen, princess...not sure what to call it....I too love those jeans!!!!! I want some too.

    Lisa-your beautiful...I love your eyes!!!!

    Thank you Karen, when my daughter sent that pic of the 5 of us together someone asked her what was wrong with her mom....I believe the actual comment was asked if I was the "runt" in the family!!!! My ex in that pic is not the kids dad, but we were together most of the time the kids were growing up (and boy has he "grown since we split!!!) so my daughter asked him to walk her down the isle instead of her real father(a REAL shit)...

    OK Mel, wheres your new hair colored pic???? Im getting ready to dye mine again and think its time for a change...My real color is deep dark brown with lots of grey!!!!, I have had it this reddish/brown color for so long now that no one even realizes I dye it.....Im not sure what I want to do with it now but a color change would make me feel better I think...and if not I can always color it back to this one.

    Hugs

    Jule

    thanks Jule.  Matthew is my biological grandson. My middle daughter Alise had him at 17 and she gave him up for adoption. It was an open adoption and Dominic is his older brother. Matthews parents are only a few years younger than me and Dominic is their son, they could not have another child. It's a wonderful relationship we have.

    Olivia will be 17 next week.  She is beautiful inside as well.

    I am going to post a family pic...hold tight..trying to find it..haha

    OK ladies , I'm back. My hair is in a towel , not down the drain thank God. Wow , what great pics! Ulla , I love the costumes. You are simply smashing. But what the heck is on the floor in front of you two?! And DH is Very handsome. What a great looking couple you are.

    Hi Lisa! You girlfriend are a feast for the eyes! You know , I think you and Karen sorta resemble each other. You both have an oblong face , which is the best cause you can wear your hair anyway you want! Lisa , I can't believe how straight you have gotten your hair. I just bought a LARGE round brush and some hair products. What kind of product do you use in your hair? I am sooo trying to let my hair grow , but it is getting to the "afro" point when I try to style it because of the curls.

    Karen , Jada is a real doll-baby. I miss my nieces at that age. I will see what pics I have of them now. But they are all grown up. Still little sweeties to me in my heart.

    Jule...your family is so beautiful! You must be proud! I think your complexion looks fine. It almost looks like you have a few freckles.  Ask Ulla for advice on skin...hers is flawless!

    Ulla you and hubby look so much in love!  I am so happy for you!

    Yep...mine got nasty shortly after marriage, then when I got dx...he walked!  His loss I think!  I am much better off.  I think I will stay single the rest of my life!  2 marriages is enough for me. The first one lasted 22 yrs.

    Mel...I am not sure of the name of the product. I got it at Sally's beauty supply.  It's for controling frizzy hair. I just use a little when it's wet and very curly...comb it through, then use the round brush and blow dry and use my fingers too. Then I use a very narrow flat iron to get it straight.

    Lisa your family is wonderful!!!!!

    Im hoping Ulla can give me some pointers on the complexion...or anyone out there........suggestions please!!!! yes what you see is freckles and I hate them....

    My son gets so embarassed when I do this Laughing and I always say its my obligation as his mom to show him off..

     Photobucket

    These three are my daughters little ones.....the baby Emma(now 3), Lily(now 9), and David Jr. or Bubba as we call him (now 5)....Bubba is my little squeeze man, he is the gentlest/sweetest little boy I have EVER known..the squeeze part is my way of sneaking hugs now that he is as HE says "too old for that stuff grandma!!!!" but he doesnt mind quite as much since they arent hugs but squeezes Laughing the picture was taken the in the spring a couple of years ago in a wheat field that surrounds the back of their home.

    Jule , I wish I could help with the complexion question. I have always had a ruddy , red complexion. And am suppose to use a green tint conceler. You have more "yellow" pigment in your skin and I'm not sure what color concealer might help that. But you could ask at the cosmetics counter and then get a foundation to match your skin tone. Still think you look great!

    Awwww thank you Mel...

    I remember you from back then too....

    Wow, that feels so strange to say...."back then" we were all so scared and unsure of our futures....

    Now look where we are....amazing!!!!!

    This is was taken while waiting to film Olivia's McDonalds commercial. That is Daniel "Boobie" Gibson who plays for the Cleveland Cavaliers.  She was "Maria" the McDonals worker.  This was just a few months ago.

    Its strange but I was just telling my girlfriend the other day that recently is feels like my eyes have suddenly opened and this past 18 months happened to someone else.....looking back at these pictures and talking about "back then" makes me realize that even more.....

    Its almost like I really know now that I made it through the tunnel and rode the carosel to the finish and have grabbed that brass ring at the end...

    I honestly feel that my journey with BC is over now.....again strange but I feel at peace with it finally.

    Thank you so very much for this today Ulla!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Jule...what did your son do to his foot??

    Ulla...you are blessed with beautiful skin!! I wish I could just put on mascara and lip gloss and not have to put on any foundation or powder!  Before cancer, I was still fighting with adult acne!! Then once I had chemo..it's gone!

    I think its like like Mel said....my skin is more of a yellow tone and freckles....I guess I will just have to live with it as Ive tried the costmetic counters and they always glob foundations and such on, it does look better but I cant stand the feel of all that on my skin...Ive always done similar to what you do Ulla....very simple skin care
