    Barb this was a friend of my daughter actually the little girl and her Mom are really nice. This was the first time I had met the Dad and older brothers though.. Not someone we would normally socialize with. The Dad is a banker and loves to let everyone know what a high roller he is. And boy was he rollin on Saturday!!!!!  He certainly made a BIG SPLASH!!!!!

    I felt really bad for the wife though because her husband was making a royal ass out of himself and she was really embarrassed. I heard him boasting to several other fathers how much he was worth, how much the house cost, how many cars he had etc. This was a kids party and there was no alcohol being served so the idiot couldn't even use that as an excuse.

    But I bet that belly flop was painful!!!!!!

    Ok so I'm up really early this morning.  The neighbors teen girls are having friends over and they are giggling in the back and talking loud enough to wake me. So it gave me a moment to pop in.  I just wanted to let you know we may be doing some computer moving which usually means it takes a while to get everything back up and running. And in the midst of that I have dd to get ready for the Dominican trip so you may not see me much for a bit.

    Thinking about those of you having treatments this week and Shiny praying for you to have safe travel back home. I'd say keep things interesting but I know you gals will.Smile

    BKC I hope his pride ws hurt.  What a jerk!!  I have been in that same situation at my pool, my boys and their friends are rowdy, and some kids are not, girls or boys.  If it gets out of hand I make the rowdy ones leave and play baseball or something.  When they come back to get in the pool, they behave.  It's OK to be rowdy, just not with little ones around.  The diving board broke.......LMAO!!!

    Shiny, good to her from you to.  Sending hugs your way.  I've been thinking about you and your family.

    Good morning ladies,

    Working from home today as Felicity is sick with some kind of stomach bug. Was up with her until about an hour ago. She is finally sleeping peacefully. Hope this thing has just about run it's course because I hate it when my babies feel bad.

    Linda, My girls can be just as rowdy as the boys but if smaller kids are around they know to tone it down. Water is so dangerous. We have had two drowning deaths close to our family already in the past couple of months one was a 3 year old  boy and the other was a 20 year old man and so I am super cautious. Maybe even a little to much. I am just glad to know that there are really other parents out there who are paying attention to and care about their kids safety. You would not even believe how many people think it is ok to leave a six or seven year old alone in the pool. Scares me half to death.

    Deb, good luck with rads!

    Shiny, hugs to you.  I know your dad is proud of you.

    BKC, love those parents who don't give a rodent's tush about anyone else's kids.  OOOOOHHH!  Turned the page & read that this dad is a BANKER!!  Those lovely people who helped the entire world get into our current massive economic mess!!  Well, that explains it!  Not only does he not give a rodent's derriere about your kids, he doesn't care about anyone!  (Hope I'm not offending any responsible bankers out there....grrr)  Oh, and he did a belly flop!  Kinda like the economy did!  How appropriate.

    Mary, good luck this week.  You, too, Arnie.  Wish you didn't have to deal with chemo on top of everything else.

    Linda, I'm glad the onc appointment was okay.  So, we both get to watch for calcifications, eh?  Oh, goody.  Hate the little buggers.

    (((((((Coonie))))))))  I'm saving the happy dance for when you are really feeling better & are home all nice & cozy in your den.

    To the most special dustbunnies in the whole wide world!!! And I DO mean the whole world!!!

    (((((((((((((((shiny)))))))))))))) I've thought of you sooooo much this week, even when I couldn't hold my head up. I'm so sorry you're having to go through this. I pray God sends extra angels to guide you through the weeks, months, and years to come. And may the memories of your daddy be extra extra special:)............there's alot I need at Walmart right now ........LOL

    ((((((((((((((((((((Arnie & Mr. Arnie))))))))))))) I've just picked up a little on what's going on, and I am so VERY sorry for all of this. Please know that I'm sending up prayers for both of you. When it rains, it pours, huh? Arnie, when you feel like it, could you let me know how things are. I'm a little confused still, but so concerned for you both.

    (((((((((((((((((MaryRose)))))))))))))))))) ((((((((((((((((((Lursa)))))))))))))))) (((((((((((((((((Dream))))))))))))))))

    I'm sorry if I'm forgetting anybody going through treatment, etc. Extra prayers for you for strength.

    ((((((((((((((((((((MOM)))))))))))))))) your phone call meant so much while I was in the hospital. I pray your headaches go away and never return!!!!

    KAK...............gf..................I'm ready for that dance now. I may not be able to dance too, but I sure would get a kick outta watching :)

    (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((dustbunnies are the BEST))))))))))))))))))))))

    Oh Deb, thx for the laugh. (Edit to add, I'm laughing at the fellow looking for gold.)  Could you wait and get the cream if you actually NEED it though.  I didn't need anything.......got, good grief.......I now can't remember how many rads I got.  Gonna go and check my appt. card.......I kept it.  I just couldn't throw it out........

    I agree!  I used Lubriderm, Aquaphor (yucky, messy, but good) and a special cream that someone gave me from Dana Farber, can't remember what is was called.  I moisturized so much that I ruined several shirts from mositurizer stains.  It was worth it though.  Skin held up great!

    SO relived to see you back Coonie!

    Well actually *I* wasn't going to buy it...but the hubby called me a Cheap*** and basically ordered me to go get it...said if she prescribed it, I should have it...he doesn't understand that the docs hands are probably in the pharmaceutical companies pockets.........I was just gonna use Jergens! With the tan stuff and get a EVEN tan at the same time..no seriously...I was gonna let her prescribe me something else.  $56 coould have gotten me a new pair of jeans too! sigh.........

    Lursa, did you really have cancer, chemo and rads at 5 years old?  Tell me that's a typo.
