Hey Stacy!!! Great picture.....he looks like a keeper:) Good luck!!!

Makratz

Yes, he is.  I'd like to go fishing with him.  I love to fish!

barbe1958

He's darling! He has a very small.....fish! hehehehee

We have Bass Pro Shops here in Canada, too. Tell him I've caught a 7 pound lake trout and see what he says! It almost pulled me under the boat! 

mom2two

OH NO Stacy! Thats my long lost husband!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Where did you find him!

mom2two

(just kidding hehehehehe)

barbe1958

Coonie that's cute. Which is the keeper, the fish or the dude? hehehehe

Well I have to say that if there wasn't the housework I whould have a big problem in motivating myself. I mean that I keep doing all the houseworks almost like I  used to. I have my breakfast and afterwards prepare the meal, wash the dishes by hand -although I have dish washer- do the ironing, vacum cleaner etc the days I can. In fact my family was trying to stop me but I never give up. I find it really helpfull. Of course I rest myself when having side effects from chemos -almost 5-8 days a month. I am not entirely crazy as you can see! I used to do all these after having a 9 hours surgery in supraclavicuklar and neck area on December that could have left me an arm disabilty. I went to my surgeon last week and he was speachless when he saw my arm having normal functionality. I believe we have to behave as we used to.

oh Mom2... are u serious?? naaah.. you're just kidding!! He's here in Omaha, NE. Now, you ladies all know that size doesn't matter...it's the motion of the ocean.

barbe1958

Vivo, I agree that we need to keep doing what we can to feel better. I was able to mow a lot of the yard today, but when it got too steep my DH took over. I was impressed that he stood by and watched me slip a couple of times without jumping in. He knows that I know my limits.

Cali, I'll take any ship in the ocean right now! 

Makratz

Welcome Vivo.  Sounds like you have a good handle on things, especially housework. Are you sure you belog on this thread???  Just kidding!!  We' love to have you even though we don't love to do housework!

coonie

Welcome to the group Vivo. And it does sound like you've got things under control. Maybe you could come to my house next? hehe

Barbe.....lol I think Stacy probably thinks the dude is the keeper, but I think the fish is cute too:)

Hey ladies...........notice the welcome!!! I did good, huh?

Sharon!!!! Are you busy cleaning house???!!!! Come back!

VIVO! I love your avatar. I'm fascinated by that photo. Do you know anything about it's origin?

I've seen it once & used it for a project -- but I don't know anything about the photographer, etc.

BTW: I think it's a slippery slope if we start talking too much about actual housework.

JMHO.

Love the fish stories!! Congrats.

Makratz

Well you have to CLEAN the fish before you eat it so it's kind of like housework!

mom2two

Sorry Cali I just couldn't resist.  Can you imagine in this internet world we live in how awful (and made for tv drama) that would be to post a pic of your boyfriend and REALLY have someone say that!!!

Vivo welcome aboard. I'm like you, I feel that I got back alot of my range of motion and feeling by carrying on with normal activities although for the first few weeks I tried very hard to take it easy like the doctor said. Gradually I was able to do more and more. 

mom2two

Coonie great Welcome pic too.

caligrlof68

i think HE has to clean the fish before he eats it. But WE get to count it as one of our chores. LOL

caligrlof68

oh mom2....that would be just awful, but so like the internet to cause something like that. I had something similar happen to me. Just a few days ago this man i have never met, but chat with a few times a week, told me about his ex and how she'd had a stroke and now needed heart surgery. GASP!! She had been my patient a few days earlier when she was hospitalized. Needless to say I changed the subject immediately. But.... small world. I think what you suggested could very easily happen. Let's just hope it doesn't happen to ME! I've had enough drama for a life time...or for lifetime (television that is). 

mom2two

Naw Cali he doesn't look like the deceptive type.  The internet does make the world alot smaller though.

I went out and mowed part of the yard Coonie and

now I am paying, Did some housework, Can I borrow

that wind for dusting next time. Wishing you all a wonderful

cleaning week, Makaz, I want to fish for a cute one.

Take care, Relay for life, this weekend. Debbie

barbe1958

Debbie! You're only supposed to do ONE thing. Come on, you know the rules. (((( hugs ))))

Makratz

Barb, do you ever sleep???  What time zone are you in.  YAWWWWWWNNNNNN, I don't know how you do it!

Good morning dust bunnies!!

barbe1958

Good morning!

I doze....read.....doze.....

Side effect of Fibromyalgia....sigh. Even on 15 mgs of Melatonin every evening. I fall asleep easily, but I wake up often. 

Makratz

I do that do, not to that extreme, more anxiety.  I take lorazepam and am out light a light.  I only do that about 2 nights a week so I can get some good sleep otherwise I may shoot my boys!  JK! not really, yes I am!!

Marple

Barbe..........that's how I sleep (or don't sleep) too.  Drives me nuts.......in case ya'all haven't noticed.  That's why I stear away from doing too much housework. 

Happy housework day everyone. 

barbe1958

Nope, a work day for me, the $$ kind.

Have to go to the doc first to get the results of my CT scan...

Marple

Oh hell Barbe........good luck!!! 

barbe1958

piece o' cake

Marple
