    Wow Chevy, your brother is great!  He was seriously working that drum. The different sounds that he got from his hands and fingers was amazing. He is totally cool and looked like he was having a great time too!

    Z, I hope the antibiotics work quick. UTIs are the worst. Sending out hugs and prayers hoping you have a good nights sleep tonight.

    Chevy, DH was impressed. He drums with a samba band. Amateur however.

    Summer and ZZZZZZZZZ , not doing a one-upnenship thingy, but trust me after experincing UTI's, Bladder stones passages(3), Seemingly intractable Yeast infection., Eczema of the vulva and butt-----------there were moments that relief was not in sight. I'm friggen tired of lessons. I research everything to ad nauseum.  One in thirty women experience the problem I have . So, that's allot. It's very very frequently misdiagnosed. I was just lucky, I research all this stuff AND can decipher it.. So, a full explanation go to Constipation thread UGH. The things we talk about-------------It's equivalent to having a Terminix Truck in front of your house.

    Up north if you had a bug terminator truck in the drive , it was VERY unusual. In Florida, usual and planned. 

    Let's just say the terminator worked or is working, I've rejoined the land of the living that can sit

    Maddy and Paws have fun at lunch tomorrow. Chevy&Spookie&I are making a whole thing about meeting , and you all  meet once a month. Please, post pics here too. 

    Blondie isnt'there anyone you can go to lunch with from BCO?

    Dinner tonight- LOL very good. Ds and GF very serious, She's a sweetheart. Very down to earth. Laughs allot. easy to be with.  Told her about the questions to DS about why I thought they should be together. DS didn't squish. She blossomed. He looked on adoringly, as she and I followed those thoughts. She has no agenda. Easy to be with. LOL she suggested the dinner tonight because they are seeing her parents tomorrow. She said let's make it a family weekend. Bodes well for the future.    Negative----------I have glass in the car for weeks, that I want to give him. It was raining, couldn't transfer. no room in the house for it.  Another word----------she's perfect. :)

    Morning Gals! Yes, my little Brother!
    He is just a year younger, but it's been my mission in life, to always remind
    him I am older and therefore the "boss!" Ha!

    I have lots of videos of him, because one time I just
    googled Kenny Malone, and came up with everything about him.... He has his own
    video out... about "Hand Drummin."

    But YEARS ago, I remember him and his damn drums! I mean
    when he finally got his own drum-set, he would set them up out on the front
    lawn, and just get to WAILIN' to a boom-box and all the neighbors would come
    out front, and everybody was jammin' and we had a blast!

    He LOVED driving Mom and Dad crazy.... and all the girls
    in school just had fits over him... He joined the Navy when he was 17.... and
    taught percussion at the Naval Academy School of Music...

    So if you google him, you will see all the musicians and
    groups that he has played with.... Mom and Dad went to see him perform one
    time, when he was with Crystal Gale...

    He used to tour with Tim O'Brien, and all the Blue-Grass
    concerts they performed with...

    But I mostly loved hearing him play with big bands.... and
    his drum solos'! He was the drummer with the Ralph Emery Show broadcast from
    the Nashville OpryLand Hotel, I think it was...

    And ME? All I can do is grow tomatoes.... Ha, ha! I
    DID take dancing lessons...! Probably where I honed my skills on that
    pole.

    Sass, thanks for talking to "Sandra" on the other
    thread... it SOUNDED pretty serious! And I thought you could at least point
    her in the right direction.

    AND OMG Sass! When you list all the stuff that has gone
    wrong with you, I nearly fell of my chair! I ran outdoors in the blazing
    moon-light to get that whole mish-mash out of my head! Oh EEEEeeeeeeeeeeeks!

    So were you trying to say "nauseous" .... only you said
    nauseum? I don't even know what that is....

    Okay, wait.... CAMMI will! She can explain everything
    that you said to me.

    So YES! We are meeting next Thursday, in Celebration at
    some hotel which I don't have a clue but DD does! Us girls and the dogs! I
    will love that!

    DAHLING picture 2222222222222! She is Beautiful!

    Morning Blessings, LittlePaws, ZZZZZZZ and
    Blondie!

    So Sass is posting QUESTIONS to this "new" little gal in
    her Son's life? Aw geez! You are going to scare the poor thing!

    Just show them who's boss Sassy.... do it early, so
    there's no thought of rebellion. Nip it in the bud they say... Start early,
    then stand on their throats till they behave appropriately.

    Glass is okay getting wet Sass... you got the kind that
    melts?

    The Columbia is in a hotel? I'll find it, have addy. Just not sure about handicap parking and going through some lobby. But she will be in her stroller. 

    I have a problem.  I put ios8 on my phone, now I can't post pics from my albums.  Rotten timing.  Will ask mods, maybe it's a quick fix

    Good Morning all, it must be Sassy day. 

    Zj, I remember how painful urinating was while on A/C. That and UTI are common on the "red devil". One down & 3 to go, is that correct? I cannot remember where you are exactly. It is a horrific drug, IMHO. Hopefully it does it job, for those of us that needed it. 

    Jealous of all the lunches with BCO ladies. 

    Paw & 2nd, we need details.....what you ate, did you get dessert, strippers?

    DH is doing pretty good. Of course, working too much. There season is winding down.

    I played in a small Rally for the cure golf tourney on Thurs. Beautiful day & I got to play with ladies that play in my twilight league. They had good cake & champagne. I, like most, am not comfortable with the whole pinky overkill, but these ladies try really hard to put on a good event. 

    Last year, I was so sick in Oct. I had my 4th A/C & my first Taxol. The breast cancer awareness campaign annoyed the crap out of me. Most folks think if you get your mammos they will catch it early. We know that is not always the case. Still healing from the assault of all that trauma/drama.....lol.....

    Blessings, I was so impressed with you hooking up your modem & whatever else. Sounds like your brain is functioning just fine...

    Waving hello to all....

    is it "normal" for those of us who have/are going through BC crap to feel annoyed with the pink stuff? Symbols, runs, tshirts, etc? The only time I heard from breast cancer organization is for donations. I was told at the beginning that someone would contact me to see if I needed anything. No one did. I didn't need anything but that's not the point. Now all they ever want is money! I'll donate when I want to!  Ok, my vent for today.

    Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. Pics from 2nd and paws tonight!  Got to go sew.

    If I had money it would go to Dr. Susan Love, who is supporting research. Plus she's a hoot! She had cancer 2 ? years ago with extensive treatment, so she really does get it.

    So okay..... Now I'm almost finished packing.  What's it supposed to get down to again Spookie??  80???  And that's at night?  I guess I can leave my Parka and Muck-lucks home....???  Just thought I would ask....  

    Yes Peppermint.... wish youi all could meet with us too!

    You know, I don't mind Pink.... probably because it was my Mom's favorite color!  The girls gave me a pink rose-bush for my garden when I lost her....  

    Doesn't the Heart assn. have red everything?   So it's okay....  I wear little pink braided bracelets, AND a pink watch, when I don't have my glitzy purple trampy one on.... AND  it just reminds me of how far I've come, (almost 5 years) and it reminds me of my Mom....  

    You know, we COULD all wear Orange and Black, and ride big MoFo Harleys!    Oh wait.... that was another time..............

    Smaarty, I was doing treatment in October I walked into Publix and saw all the pink crappola felt like I took a punch in the gut. I like pink. I'm wearing it now. But won't next month, at all. 

    I'm aware. I won't donate any more than I have. They tried to kill me and I lost a year of my life.

    The Pinktober thread should be getting active soon, come on over!  Lots of fun  Not to be confused with Puketober

    ok, went to Pinktober. Also posted the link to the two threads I have. And took the survey. Don't know why I have mixed emotions about pink. I've never done the run. Don't know that I will this year. Have to talk to my sister.

    Sass, I also added info in the header on getting vacations, hearing test, etc. did I forget anything?
