Good Night Everyone!

-
Wow - you lot were a bit boisterous, weren't you??
Maybe a nice cup of chamomile tea for everyone before bed tonight would calm things down!!
Hope you are all having a good weekend.
Night All!!
-
Sweet dreams Ainm. Thanks for the chamomile tea.
Night Seyla. Night JO. Night Joni. Night barb-K. Night Meece.

Night everyone. I missed Tuck-in and Tea. In fact you are probably just about ready to get up, and I am just hitting the hay. Chamomile tea sounds so pleasant. But I would have to get up to get it. So I will bid you all a good night, see you in the morning!
-
You forgot WTF?
-
I didn't forget. I had to run a meeting and was gone all day lone. We usually are in bed by 8 or 8:30 but we didn't get home until nearly 11. I am worn out. I didn't even need tucking in. The light went our and so did I.
-
Meece - I think GML means that WTF isn't in the abbreviations list!!!
I had such a lovely day today - as soon as I discover how to get photos from my phone to here I will post some really lovely photos. My DH took me for a flight over the Cliffs of Moher, and the Aran Islands. We landed on one of the islands and had a picnic - the weather was beautiful - temp almost 70 - first time in a long time that I really relaxed and first time since dx that I flew with him. Bliss!!
Now I guess it's time to get back to earth!! What do you all want as a nightcap - some nice fennel tea, made with fresh fennel or I think I have enough lemon balm to make a few cups or what about some good old fashioned cocoa anyone??
Get the orders in - quick!!
-
Yummy, cocoa - are you still up to make it Ainm?
Walked in the park this afternoon and my allergies are making me pay! The weather is so beautiful so had to get out. Paying for it now.
Welcome GML - sorry, I didn't forget, but that's one others will have to figure out for themselves.
-
Good Monday Morning!!!!
-
Morning Meece - I'm having a sneak lunchtime peek to see who's about!!
-
I am here. Still in bed though.
-
Oh it's fun to catch some one in 'real time'!!!!
I've just had lunch and must get some paperwork sorted out now before I go sit with my Mom for a while - I'm going to try to get her to go for a little walk - the weather is lovely again today.
DH is in bed with a nasty tummy bug - hope he keeps it to himself!!
Have a lovely monday, Meece.
-
Well I usually check in about this time 5-6 am our time. I can't wait to see your pictures! You have a beautiful day as well!
-
Also sneaking some peeks this morning. Hi Ainm, it's not often we catch you up. Enjoy your day.
Allergies got me again. Poor co-worker in next cube says she's tired of hearing me sniffle and why don't I take something for it - DUH!!!! Sometimes nothing works and they say this allergy season is one of the worse ever. Oh well, life is tough (especially when you're in your 20's and a "princess").
But, I'll be nice because, well, just because.
-
I'm sneaking a peek while @ work too. Spent yesterday driving up to Portland & back on I5 for DD soccer game! Argh! Left @ 6:30 AM; got home @ 9:15PM-went straight to bed! Have a great day!
-
We had a good rain so the allergy index today is very low. I like days like that! Peeking at work, too.
-
It's 7pm and allergies wiped me out. Turning in.

-
What is AC? I know the "C" is Chemo what is the "A"?
-
AC is one of the five most common types of chemotherapy given to women with breast cancer. And it's probably the MOST common drug combination given to women with node-negative (hasn't spread to your lymph nodes) cancer. AC includes two drugs: doxorubicin (Adriamycin), and cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan). But you don't have to remember the names; just the initials, because anyone who needs to know will recognize what the letters stand for.
-
Updated the list. Thanks flying. Off to a meeting - back later for my tea.
-
Hot or iced tonight?
-
Tea, that is.
-
Hahahahaaaa.
-
Hmmm, if not Tea, what are the other options?
Okay, I'll be good - with my allergies a cup of hot tea will be just about right. Thanks.
Sleep tight Ainm. Night Seyla. Night JO. Night Joni. Night Barb_k. Night Meece (thanks).

Night (or middle of Night), Ainm, Night Patoo, Night, Seyla, Night JO, Night Joni, Night Barb_k.

Meece you missed John boy, But you added a few new ones so that's ok. I'll not go into all the good nights, I'll just say good night all, and go try some warm milk to try to sleep. the decadron has kicked in. I'm tired actually worn out but can't settle down. Got # 2 tomorrow.
Seyla, I sure hope your allergies get better soon. Have you talked to the Dr. about it?
My Dr. saw me blowing my nose last time for Chemo and insisted on the Neulasta shot as a precaution. although I told him I do this every morning. Sinus drainage and me every morning for about an hour or two. But it's better than sinus blockage.
Well Good Night Ladies. Barb
