    Cammi honey, be sure and tell the docs that you want the GOOD scans.  Not any of that cancer crap.  (It's always good to set their expectations)

    Dutch-oven, you did that exactly right.

    Had a rough day yesterday. My kids (teens~say no more) are going to drive me to drink.  Ziggers cheered me right up though, the perfect post to start my day today. Vision and headaches gets worse after stress (thanks kids!) So I need to learn to manage stress better. May take up weed too like you ankle bracelet ladies. And cigar smoking. Buy a Harley and hang out in biker bars. 

    Love the music videos. Listen to the creation one over and over. Wren thanks for big fat head link! I've never met any other women with big heads. Must come from all the extra smartness we have. Crabcakes! Yum

    Goober, I will ride shotgun with you any day.

    Hello New people! Run fast before you get an ankle bracelet slapped on!

    Extra hugs to Camerino, dutch, Linda,  And anyone else dealing with chit.

    Mostlymom u'r avatar is so cute----now u must have something to take for pain and sleep if not talk to u'r Docs they'll help u BTW to bad we couldn't see a picture of u in the tub..

    Anita 2 months old--they start so many things then and they know u, I love when they just look at u like they are memorizing u'r Dutch u sound better, but now I'm confused who said what I'm way down here.

    I know Chevy says a lot but means nothing so I basically don't answer her but I do like u'r quilt u do have so much creativity, I have to admit that and Sas where are u-- hope resting.

    And u ladies who have kids to take care of God Bless You--I could never do that, I can barely take care of myself. Oh and I'm giving myself a little longer and I might have to cancel my scan today--my specialty of diarrhea is slight so far but it's there, as u know I have had explosions in the scan area before and I really don't like that--Now I'm more particular about it-so I'll wait a little longer and see what comes out. LOL

    I know I'm missing so many and I never mean o, but I'm having a difficult time this morning so that's my story and I'm stickin to it.

    Good morning ladies! Way too many of you for my poor brain to remember, but am sending lots of positive thoughts for Cami today, hope Sas and DutchIris are feeling a little better, love the quilts, love the family pics! You all brighten my day!

    I have been promoted to soft bland diet today! Yippeee!!! Still have a little nausea and tenderness, but I THINK the GI system is still working .... 'nuff said! Thanks for all your well wishes!

    Half the day is gone, and I don't know where it went. I really MUST do SOMETHING productive today ... maybe fold that laundry that has been sitting there for several days.

    Hugs, y'all!

    Well I just cancelled my scan--they know me to well there and told me not to come again if I have my big D--I promised I wouldn't-so rescheduled til Friday--damn I just like to get it over with--I took my meds and still freezing cold so I'm not done yet--I know the routine but I'm so exhausted from this I can hardly move, but I did email my boss and told him I wasn't getting a test today at the hospital cuz I was to sick to go to the hospital--he knows I'm goofy. So I'll just do the phones for now. ad try to unfreeze.

    Aw geez Cammi.... So okay.... arrange for them to come scan you at your house....  Then you can't back out of it!   Tell them you will take a "selfie" and that should be enough.  I just don't know how to stop your big D.....  It's probably crazy to ask, but have you tried ImmodiumAD?   Do you take Melatonin?  I took THAT one, because I couldn't sleep with Tamoxifen.... but the Melatonin WITH Tamoxifen really did a number on me.... That's why I had to take ImmodiumAD like 3 times a DAY!  Is it one of the pills you are taking?  Or just something else wrong!    When I quit Tamoxifen, I also quit the Melatonin, and it all straightened up! 

    I have to go with you, when you go for the scan.....  That's all there is to it!

    And on the last page or 2-3, someone asked about my Avatar, and if Lacee was some kind of a Collie?  Yes!  But she is a Sheltie, only smaller, and a little bulkier than most.  She had really short little legs, and the most beautiful face on this earth.... and her personality was the sweetest....    I think that's why we don't want another dog...  Everything just reminds me of her.....

    Chevy, it hurts to lose our furbabies! They were so dependent on us and gave us nothing but unconditional love. Hoping every time you see Lacee it brings back a wonderful memory of her and puts a smile on your face and warms your heart.

    I know losing our furbabies suck.

    Chevy I have been  taken every meds available and perscriptions the strongest they could give me, I have had Drs. upon Drs. there is no sense to this, they don't even say it's my nerves it's a mystery to them with a lot of Drs. wanting to find out but no one has. It makes no difference what I eat or don't eat==that's all been eliminated along time ago. So I  know everyone tries to help and I appreciate that but it is what it is--the depts. in the hospital know me now and they don't want me there when I have it, they've seen enough of it with me. I've been in the hospital for weeks at a time for every test that u can imagine and it's always the same and at first they always wear the contagious outfits and I tell them they don't need them, then after like 3 days they don't hahaha--Oh and sometimes I get a  low grade fever like 100 not all the time just whenever.  This started as a side effect from my very first chemo and never left me That's why I know how long I've had it--I had chemo from 2007-beginning of 2010 and I think my body just got used to that rhythm and kept it up, Wait I did have breaks during that time tho with operations, one took 3 months to go back to chemo--the other took 6 weeks so my chemo wasn't constant--And rads were 31 but took much longer cuz I couldn't go there cuz of this. So it'll stop when it stops I guess, Can u tell I'm aggravated today?  hahaha Not so bad but--I just want u to know this has never been ignored, Especially when I go out.

    Cammi, you are an abomalie, or an anomolie, or a gal with more problems than I can fix.   Or ANYone can fix.  I'll bet that chemo DID make something go out of whack!  And that makes sense!  I guess all you can do is treat the symptoms?  So what else can I help you with?

    You want some eggs?  I got 7 more today!  DANG!  I am so happy..... I don't know what their owners DO with all the eggs!  I am making a toasted flour tortilla, putting refried beans on it, then an egg, cheese, and some of that 505 green chili for dinner.  Maybe some shredded lettuce!  I am sooooo easy!!!!  I've heard that somewhere before, but I can't remember where, or from whom....

    Teka true.

    Blubird--r u another one with a big head--mine is huge--I did buy hats that were lardge from TLC and they could be adjusted to so that worked out goo--I di only have one wig tho but again it was large---my kids always kid me about my head so for u to have headaches now must be horrendous--I  know. But I did get extra long scarves too--that's why I wear big earrings, if I wear small ones my head looks bigger--we hold a lot in info in there and I bet u'r IQ is high, like mine is.

    ok Fierce BB and Cami, please quit bragging that you have big heads because your brain is so much bigger than the rest of us and you're so darn smart! From someone with a little brain/little head, I'm feeling inferior to you!

    On another note, got my appt to find out the results from last week's procedures (colonoscopy and endoscopy) moved up to tomorrow. Hoping for a clean report

    Mostly mom---ROTFLOL----only b/c been there done that---its "Oh shit what if they'd have to call the fire department to get me up-----all those guys in turn out gear, trapsing around the bathroom."

    Myra not quiet, just wasn't here. Drove to Tampa so DBF could do the HVAC inspection on DS house he 's purchasing. 6 hours over and back. Took enough meds so in case we had to stay over night. I get home unload the purse. Look at the meds----AND I TAKE THEM-----yikes the were for tomorrow morning. My poor body is going to be so messed up.      Good luck with the scans.  Where's the SUN COAST---I'm on the SPACE COAST, I know where the TREASURE COAST  is..........Sucks about your friend, bring her here when she's ready. But sometimes this type of thing isn't for everyone.

    Sucks about the tumor on your spine---not mets---how'd they find it. Symptoms. Found on standard scanning?  HUGS... The standard scanning works , or at least it has for me, that's how they found the brain tumor and the thyroid tumor.  Wouldn't have without scanning, until a different time. Even the BC was caught cuz i was in the second stage of workup for a bilat prophy.  So, I guess that's make three.

    Good one, Teka  

    Chevy - I heard you were easy, too.... er, but not in a BAD way..... 

    Cami - our exceptionally large heads ARE full of information, useful or not. And our brilliance is only outweighed by our humility!!!!

    2TA - in your pocket tomorrow, demanding a slick-as-a-whistle report for you!

    Miss GrahamCracker - are you driving ALONE?????

    Hope you got to bed early, Myra....

    Spookie, Blondie, Sassypants... waving at you from the Left Coast

    Vinnie - hoping your absence here means you are no longer suffering from insomnia. Either that, or Chevy has become your stalker, but don't worry, you can probably outrun her for at least a little while longer.

    Hope I didn't leave anyone out... I was too afraid of losing my post to check previous pages!!!

    Nah, it's not 1:30 a.m. here.... it's only 8:40 p.m. in Cali!

    Spookiesmom, your avatar continues to remain right side up. Cool!

    Thanks Blessings! My, you are witty tonight.

    Also hoping we didn't scare Vinnie away.

    Ha.. speaking of big heads here's a funny story....I knew when I got pregnant with each of my kids. (I'm special like that.) Normally I'm a careful kind of girl, but during our marriage we attended two wild and crazy weddings (where there was a bit too much champagne and not enough planning later that night if you know what I mean) and the next day I just knew it. I'm special and lucky like that. 

    At my first ultrasound for each pregnancy, I had to argue with tech and doctor about my "first missed period".  Looking at the huge skulls of each of my kids in utero made the doctors think I was many more months along.  With my son, they even thought he had some rare chromosomal anomaly causing him to have a huge head. 

    My husband just looked at them and said, "nah...that baby has a Schmidt skull"  (my family name) and then joked about Charlie Brown being the dad.   Har..har...! ThumbsDown

    Cami, I hope the D gets better.  You really can't know if you can be still long enough for the scan with that going on.  My scan is now on Thursday.  Its too busy at work to have it done today.

    Thinking of you and your results today, 2TA.  

    Bluebird, Charlie Brown was the dad, lol.  Wait, does the thumbs down mean I want supposed to laugh at that part?  Oh the delivery...the baby, not the joke...ouch!
