Cami- hot flash, you hot thing!
I slept in until almost 8 a.m. today. A rare thing for me, felt good!
Going to get my hair colored and cut today, to a party later today for a friend who turns 60!
Hope everyone is feeling okay and doing okay here today.

lily, when i posted i was on the wrong page, i didnt see your post till now. we are both in the same place, but we cant just roll over and die, we have to live everylast drop. it is ok, we can be scared together, all we have to do is get ourselves there. do you have someone to take with you? & please dont discount what you are going through, it is extremely hard. but we cant just stop, or at least not yet. i have to say i do go to the stage four threads, sometimes, just to learn what they are going through,and how so many seem to deal so well. i just hate that you are having a hard time, and wish there was something i could do to relieve your suffering.

Lily I don't think u'r talking about vanity, I think u feel like u'e been violated, but it's the opposite u've been saved, but u have to have the scars to do it, U've been given another chance in a new body but it's all right, no one looks at u the way u do, they look at u as a woman with courage and fortitude, u can't just give up, u've been thru way to much and it's time to not give up, but time to pick up and try to start as the new woman u are--it's all about u'r inner self nothing is about the outter self. It's how u shine thru.
-
amazing picture, lily55! i want some seeds to grow some of those. i am imagining all the fun i could have with those!
-
Good Morning--Oh I can see the pic now Lily--interesting but a little spooky looking to me. I've never seen anything like that before.
I hope everyone has a good Sun day planned mine is the usual. We had a messy da yesterday with a few inches of snow which still sparkling in the sun or moon light. So it does look pretty still. Hae to go bach to get more ZZZ's, but decided to pop in.
-
Lily, you need another week of being a little bit kinder to oneself. *Hug*
I would never send that photo to any woman or man with BC. Didn't make me laugh!
Jazzygirl, Teka fur abounds!
-
teka i know i did not know how to take it hope i didnt upset anyone posying it here
-
Lily, okay for you to post photo on the threads, not okay sent to your Inbox.
Your Inbox is e-mail? Correct?
-
Good Morning All,
Lily, please don't feel bad about expressing any of your feelings. We are here to listen. I wish I had words that would help. Please know that we care about you. (((hugs)))
I just got out of bed. After putting off a Walmart visit yesterday, I am going to have my 2cups of half caff and go. Since the store is so big and I tend to wander around it, maybe I will consider it my walk for the day ... no, our weather is too nice to miss being outside. Sun seems to help me feel more a part of the universe.
-
I'm starting the morning off slow, and now breakfast then watering the houseplants & doing the wash.
No sun for me ;o(
-
its a cloudy day! its a cloudy day! but, where is our cami?
-
My nephew, Teddy, & his wife Melissa had twin girls yesterday. They were born at 24 weeks weighing 1.3 & 1.2 lbs. Their names are Gaelic.....Dechlan (full of Goodness) and Sloan (Warrior). They are doing scans tomorrow to make sure the brains are ok. Prayers appreciated.
Teddy put his wedding band on the arm of one of the girls. The ring was too big.

-
Soteria, prayers sent for Dechlan and Sloan and their parents and all of the family.
-
Paula how marvelous it's this time that so many under weighed babies have such a good prognosis and they end up being fine, even tho they are so tiney Bless their little hearts- Twins--and good strong names. (((PRAYERS)))
Chit I'm just getting thru my day--I washed clothes Yes I did, took a shower Yes I badly needed it now I smell like a luscious field of flowers, that won't last tho. So this family better appreciate while it lasts. Oh and I talked to my sister for almost 2 hrs. and really said nothing as usual. We just talk. So that's been my day not remembering what day it was, I just realized it's Sunday??? Where the hell did Saturday go??? I must have gone thru it drunk ---again.
Wishing everyone one a good SUNDAY
-
My Saturday--oh well I didn't feel a thing
-
Hi hermits- another nice day here. But we worry as the forecast is for dry weather now through April. We depend on our winter pack for water. Well, I washed my car, figuring it was not going to rain, but hoping to bring on some moisture? I saw some green things poking up out of the gardens, and it is far too soon for that to happen.
Went to my friend's party last night and sat with two very nice men who were great conversationalists. Husbands of women I know. We talked about travel, sports cars and Jewish delis. I am not Jewish (both of them are though), but love the deli food! My friend seem to have a great turn out and a great 60th celebration.
I have not been as social for awhile as you all know, but am trying to get out more to connect and reconnect with people. Pretty selective about where I go and who I spend time with these days, but this felt like one I wanted to do. I felt a bit like a fish out of water at first, as I feel like I have lost some of my social butterfly tendencies with all the hermitting, but felt comfortable relatively quickly. The party was only two hours which was perfect, just enough but not too much time. I do well with dealing with people with my consulting work, but find small talk very hard now. In the end, I was glad I went.
Soteria- those babies are very small but there is so much they can do for the wee ones that are born small. I hope all the organs are developed and they can just be taken care of in the NICU and grow. Prayers for the babies and the family. Good strong names, as Cami says!
Lily- you mentioned recently you went out to walk your dogs. Are you getting out for fresh air a bit more as you can?
-
Jazzy I'm glad u went, I honestly can't imagine u'd be lost for any words but u know how u feel--see u had a good time--I notice when I go out if I'm not out to long I do well when it starts running long I start hurting more and more and feel uncomfortable or I just get the big D--either way I like to "party" for a lesser amount of time, unless it is here--then I'm more comfortable leaving and going into my room and resting just a bit and then re-entering the party-works better for me.
-
cami! is that really you!?! omygodess! i am going to go ahead and laugh, now, assuming its not. jazzy, that b.d. gathering sounds just wonderful. and Paula, those ARE beautiful and strong names for the twins...
-
Paula,
Blessed Mother will comfort the girls! *Hugs*
