I want cranberry juice or some other kind of tea like passion fruit, tangerine zest.

Thank You, just boil some extra water.

Good Night Ladies.
-
Well tonight I can stop by with peach tea, but that's all I have around here.
Good morning!!!
-
Peach tea - yummy. I'll try and stay awake for you to stop by. Thanks.
Good afternoon, all.
-
You are having afternoon already? I am jealous!!!
-
Peach Tea for me please - yum!!
It's been a really stormy day here and I had to drive DD back to uni but now I'm in front of the fire and it's just about time for bed!!
Night Meece, Patoo, Jo, Joni, Seyla, Barb - Sweet Dreams.
-
Night.night, Ainm. Here's your tea.
A storm came through this morning but now it is just breezy and off and on with the clouds.
-
It's simply beautiful here, went out for a walk after work - 79 degrees but supposed to drop into the 50's by end week.
Sweet dreams Ainm. Night Seyla, JO, Joni, Barb-k, Meece. (Meece, tea was wonderful last night - making any tonight?)
-
I made a large batch today. Plenty for everyone.
-
Im ready for my tea now.
-
Where is my tea Meece?Good Night Ladies
-
You ladies must like your tea. I will just settle for a glass of milk. My mother was english and loved her tea right up to the day she died she could tell if we warmed the cup first. Don't know how I missed the tea boat but never to a liking to tea or coffee. Guess I'm strange. The weather has been beautiful here. IN the 80's but it will soon be so hot we can't hardly breathe outside. Not looking forward to it with all these hotflashes I'm getting. I don't remember my menapause being as bad as my chemopause. Ha!!!! Well good night ladies and enjoy your tea.
-
Sheila, Check just outside your door. You didn't leave it unlocked like you usually do, and you didn't respond to my knocking, so I just set the tray down with the pretty cloth napkin laid over it. It has flowers on it just for you.
-
Running in and out again - Queen of the disorganized!!!
Hi and Bye All!!!!
-
Meece....When I was reading your post the other morning it was so well written I almost opened the door hahahahaha
Ainm.......Where are you running to? Well its kind of late there but Good Night and Sweet Dreams.
-
For some reason I'm totally pooped out.
Nice dreams Ainm. Night Seyla. Night JO. Night Barb_k. Night Joni. Night Meece (tea was wonderful again last night. Afraid I'm too tired to wait up tonight but thanks anyway - you're marvelous!)
-
I had a long afternoon at a medical appointment and the drive at rush hour through LA, so I am turning in. Nighty-Night everyone!!!
-
Hope everyone has a great day. It was gorgeous here yesterday & supposed to be low 50s today
-
It's getting warmer here. Tomorrow should be in the low to mid 80s. It was beautiful today. 80 degrees, and blue skies!

hi patoo!my name is cherie1.Thank you so much for the abbreviations,some i had figured out (only used acomputer this month,much less discussion boards!)but i thought dh was dead husband..then reading i figured it wasn't then i thought dead head,and on it went.I feel like i got the secret handshake!!! lol! thanks for taking the time to 'splain to us newbies.That's part of the support i so am grateful 4.
-
Cherie1 - thanks for the laugh. (love the dead head which actually does fit my ex!)
Hi everybody - had good weather last few days. Today is cloudy; a little dreary but the weekend is supposed to be nice.
-
Patoo is it possible we have the same ex-husband??????????????????
-
My ex must be related to yours.
hehe -
That must be referring to my ex as well. When my DH first saw me referring to him online as "DH" he thought it meant "Richard"-head. I don't know if I could write the short name and head in the same line or if the net-police would get me.
-
Richard head!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ha-that's mine too! We must have all been off our rockers to fall for the same (type)A$$hole!
-
Aha - that belongs on the '...how I got BC thread...' - once married to a dead head!
-
It's just like my theory that most if not all Alzheimer patients are/were parents. The commonality factor-we should run a poll on other threads re: the DH theory as a cause for BC.
-

I couldnt help myself Joni and patoo and Meece
And cherie who started this.
Sheila

-
Clarifying, my current husband thought I was referring to HIM as D**K-Head. I try not to mention EX because he is a D**k-head.
-
I knew what you meant Meece-it's ex-es that are Richard Heads, not current spouses, unless those are in the process of becoming ex-es, then they probably fill the bill too!
-
I also knew you meant the previous. Tell your current DH we knew it was not him.
