    Lisa-Did you take those floral pictures in San Diego? Very tantalizing! My 18 year old dear daughter is a zoo fiend. We live about 15 minutes away from the Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle, and I had to buy her a zoo pass,she wants to go so often. She is organizing a zoo outing with many friends for 2 weekends from now. She also volunteers at the Humane Society 2 mornings per week.

    Here is a photo of my son, my daughter, me, and SO. This was taken during my 4 year remission (about 4 years ago. By that time I had already had bc twice before)

    WELCOME Artsee!! Must find flip flops of welcome.

    You guys. Artsee is a 'real' artist & does incredible water colors. Wait till you see her work, if you haven't yet.......

    We're just back from our community dance: soooooooooo much fun!!

    We won the door prize! Whooohooooo!

    So glad for all of the good news today for Toy, Lisa & Sharon. Huge sigh of relief all around.

    Wait till you see what I'm up to now!! I'm way behind getting them projects up on my blog.... you'll have to be patient. I'm having a ball.

    Julz: I could possibly follow a three step recipe, with about 3 ingrediants -- if I was totally motivated (which I never am. LOL)

    Big hugs & deep sleep for one and all.

    ******Oh and Lisa, those floral shots were divine, even by your standards.

    I'm willing to take #32 as far as we can make it.

    Plant Your Own Vegetable garden

    Fist plant a row of peas

    Patience, Promptness, Preparation,Perseverance,and Participation.

    Next plant a row of squash,

    Squash gossip, Squash criticism,and Squash indifference.

    Then plant four rows of lettuce,

    Let us be friendly, Let us be unselfish,

    Let us be loving and Let us be understanding.

    And no garden is complete without two rows of turnips,

    Turn up with a smile, Turn up to have a good time!

    God gave us a very good garden!Wink

    Next week I am making a chemo hat (I hope)  thats the plan

    Jaz, thinking of you and hopeing you had a great day. 

    Hugs to all from A to Z  and Faith pass me a bottle of energy K?

    GOOD Morning, Beachie Bunnies. Today is the stretching/flexibility class. Oh, how I'm gonna miss all of this organizational up-n-at-em-ness that is just literally around the first corner, when we're here.

    Then I'm driving up the road to have lunch with a gal from OH who 'winters' just up in-town. She's semi-retired & has invited me to perform for the Cleveland area MRDD (retardation) school, next month. As we discussed all the particulars, we realized that we were just a heart-beat away, while here. Small world.

    I feel like the sands are slipping thru the hour-glass..... just a couple more days here for me, till next winter.

    Footie. Loved the 'garden' reminder. Thanks for taking the time to post it. Twill get you an update of my precious ones, just as soon as I get back to them. Hmmmmm Maybe I put together a collage that I haven't posted here? I'll see what I can find.

    Toy. I still can't see the pic of your family, tho apparently Footie could last night??? Maybe it's a west-coast thing? The image won't travel across the Mississippi.

    Has anybody seen CurlieQ?

    Checkum, thinking of you as you journey forward.

    Dream, you too. Gentle hugs for the duration.

    Good Morning beach bums.....Today is a new day....Smile  Make it a good one. 

    A busy day here.  It's my day off and the sun will be shining - yippie!!  I'm taking a friends son to school this morning - dog to groomers - and babysitting for grandson for a bit this afternoon.  Plus the usual fun stuff - laundry - cleaning - grocery shopping and making dinner.Laughing  Sounds like I'll be lucky to fit it all in....oh ya....also forget to mention my hour of exercise.....now THAT needs to be priority.

    Sending love and hugs to the beach crew this morning....

    Good morning beach friends, hope all has a good day.  I intend to make mine good.  Tonight it is my turn to take snacks to the youth group so trying to figure out something to cook and then also tonight is life group and need to fix a snack for that.  Plus work in some knitting.  I wish I felt the same about exercise that I do knitting, would really get some of this extra weight off then.

    I am going to take a walk along the beach before getting busy to see if there is anything interesting washed up on the shores.

    Hi beachies..

    Just checkin in..  Hopefully these dang tubes come out tomorrow.  I can't wait.  I did get good news this week that my PT can be done by the visiting nurses vs. driving 1.5 hours to Dartmouth for it, that will be much better.  Hope all is well, glad to hear Toyful is feeling better.  Sharon Dr. appt?  How did that go?

    Hello Beachettes.  Two days to the city in a row.  Nothing now for the rest of the week.  I've not read the posts and need to get caught up.  My onch appt yesterday went fine.  They did the bloodwork before I left so don't know how that is.  My mammo is in April.  Already biting my nails over that one.  But hey, it's the beach and I just wanna have fun.
