    Marty- welcome to our thread. I am with you, ready for the new year and a breath of fresh air.

    Teka- 7 hours to midnight. I won't make it up to then. But maybe until 9 p.m.! 

    Talked to my best friend who still lives back east. Good two hour catch up on the phone. Today is her wedding anniversary (I was in their wedding) and also the passing of her mother 29 years ago. We had a good talk about many things, and I learned some things she did for our mother when she was in a nursing home for awhile back east. Made me love her that much more. Thank god for those deep abiding friendships that carry us through life.

    Some idiot decided to get his New Year's Eve celebrating on early and mowed down a power pole just down the road from me.  I was without power for about 7 hours. :(  Just now trying to catch up.

    I use Aquaphor and haven't noticed any staining, but do only wear my older tank tops when I first slather it on.

    Hi Marty, welcome!

    Lovely poem CCFW! I'm going to steal it and share on my diabetes forum. Is that OK?

    Have a safe and Happy New Year everyone!  Wishing health, happiness and abundance for all of us!

    Me, I'm staying in tonight and watching Dr Who reruns on BBCAmerica. :))

    Hi Marty welcome--this is a great place to hide out sometimes when u need to and these gals are wonderful.

    CC that was beautiful thanks for sharing.

    And I too hope that 2014 will bring us all piece of mind. less pain, less hurt from others and a joyful spirit.

    I remember when I found this thread and thought Oh is that me, well it's still me I enjoy being alone, altho I seldom am anymore, I still enjoy it.

    GrammaB ... glad your power is back on.  I will use your tank top idea when I'm using Aquafor.

    Jazzy, I will probably be in bed by 9 too.  Your phone call sounds like it was as good as an in-person visit ... except you missed the hugs.

    Marty ... hi ... somehow I missed your post so I am off to find it.  

    Cami, will there be a party at your house tonight?

    Well Happy Birthday to her. How old?  Are you going to make her a birthday Bone?  That's a project for a boring day

    It's about 65 here, supposed to rain later. Wish it would start now, all the drunken idiots are shooting fireworks.

    Hi hermits- happy New Year! Had a quiet night at home. Well, mostly quiet. Like many shared, there were fireworks around. But at midnight, people shoot guns up into the air. That is right, GUNS! Nothing like living in the wild west!

    Hope everyone has a good day today!

    Happy New Year ladies! Here's to a fresh start (hopefully cancer free) for all of us! 

    I was finally able to get in to see my RO yesterday.  Turns out I have a deep infection in my breast (possibly bacteria that is on the implant) and they put me on a week (possibly two) of anti-biotics.  I was so happy to hear that I was not "over-reacting or imagining" the pain.  I really was prepared for him to look at me and just say, "Yeah...it's the after effects of rads....you just have to deal with it."  I'm glad I was better safe than sorry. My guess is I've had the infection for about a month now.  He said he did not feel as if it were Cellulitis and that is good. 

    I pray you are all healing and at peace. Love to you all. Thank you all for just being "you."

    Love, Laurie

    XOXOXOXO

    Jazzy the fools here shoot guns at 12 too. A few years ago a young boy got hit by a bullet, in his brain, from a gun shot a mile away! The boy lived, but has damage. Idiots!
