    holeinone needs to be added


    I know there is someone else but haven't found their post-flatsy?


    Took my GD out in her first snow. She loved it. She couldn't figure out where the snow went when she put it in her hand.

    And Ducky is a member of the MHC! Ha! Not the MIC club..... oh wait, maybe she is..... but I don't know what that is.

    OMG Sas u remember more than I do Looks good to me.

    Ducky I forgot that about the milk, Holy Toledo--All this time Chit Thank You I will spread the word.

    Chevy I was on U-Tube for about an hr--Cuz I went into Willie and found my favorite--U were Always on my Mind. Then I cruzzed all over the place Proud Mary and all. LOL

    As I said earlier we missed all that Lilli had no snow at all here I was actually waiting for it, cuz usually Lillie has warmer wether and clear while we have a Blizzard. Stay In.

    I;m trying to type---with all my fingers--I'm telling the truth now the keys are such a decimal off from a typewriter I can not do it, But if u learned on a computer it would be fine and I cut my nails finally. This is another interesting fact from the mind of Camille, things that have not been studied but I just know LOL Geeze I might have been able to get a grant to prove it Damn. (sorry Lilli)

    Ah....does sound like your Dr. had a good point ducky.....but I don't use enough milk most of the time for it to be an issue.  Some people use a lot in cereal ( which is mainly all I use it for most of the time ) and my Dr. gives me calcium pills to take.....in fact, they are calcium plus D-3 and I've managed to stay ahead of the game so far.......but once I got diagnosed with the big one here....I don't hold my breath on anything anymore. 

    SAS....thanks so much for getting me on the list.

    Hope you are all having a good day.  I have been out three times....to feed the dogs, and clean the deck and sidewalk, and my car......oh, it is not very nice out there.  We of course, had to do the deck twice.....and steps etc.  We are going to be really cold ( but today should be the last of the snow for now ) for nearly a week.  Sun tomorrow.....will help it feel a little better I think.  Sun usually always makes me feel good....I bloom a little when its out there.  Warms my heart and soul. 

    Having turkey soup tonight and later some orange jello with pineapple, celery and pecans in it.  I don't know why, but it seemed like a good idea this afternoon.  I also ground up a bunch of ham and made a huge dish of ham salad.  Funny how staying in can make you want to fill the fridge with good things to nibble on.  I have lost 22 #'s now and so far, so good.  The activity level had kept it dropping off rather than on.

    See you all in the morning.

    Hmmm. We drink about a gallon a week between 2 people. Most of it is in coffee, although we have cereal once or twice. DH's doc told him to drink nonfat after his bypass surgery. But the thinking may have changed. I'm still not sure if eggs are good or bad at the moment.

    I get fairly regular blood work-ups from the V.A. and they help me keep track of where I am with everything. Most of my Dr.'s have indicated  that using a little milk for cereal and in cooking is all that an adult needs.  Also heard the same from the three nutritionists that I've worked with for overall health and well-being.  I don't use much milk for my cereal.  I think my husband used to put in a lot to cool his cereal down......I want to taste the cereal.....not the milk.  Ah, we all have to be a little different.  Its taken 38 years to get him to come around, but I have a few other ideas I need to tame if I can.  Ahem.   Not going to tell him that.

    Ducky I'm sorry if it made u sad, songs have so many memories in them. I remember my parents last anniversary together 65th, they had a party and my mom requested a first song for just them to dance to (of course if u knew my mom we were a little embarrassed) but they danced to After the lovin--and we all were teary eyed cuz wne my mom died my dad said I lost my best friend. And we all thought of that song. So memories can be so bittersweet, I loved them so much and they gave me such a good life and a fun one and I was lucky to have them well into my 50's and into my 60's-not so vry long ago.

    Wren....I eat lots of eggs, but they are Eggland's Best or brown eggs from free-range chickens.  I don't mean to sound uppity, but have found by comparison that brown eggs just seem to have a richer flavor.  They are a lot dearer to buy and so far....I'm keeping up but I worry all the time about my champagne taste with some things.  Never should have been so kind to myself back when things were a bit better with the jobs and income.  Oh well....I've never been known exactly for my ability to plan ahead too far. 

    My Mom used to drink gallons of milk in her coffee --- skim, I think and lo and behold she turned up with a calcium deficiency.  SAS -- maybe you know something about this.  I didn't understand it, but somehow got the impression that your body can only use so much calcium.............so at some juncture, your body becomes un-able to absorb and use it properly.  To be fair, my mother had C.O.P.D. and when discovered she only lived about 8 months after.  So a lot was happening to her........her sugar numbers went crazy along with bone issues -- needed Fosamax --- but that is when the information turned up.  Just before she passed away......some cancer was found in one lung.......jmho but I think likely by all the stress of trying to breathe along with the air left her lungs all the time. 

    Sorry Wren...I didn't mean to go off in all directions.......but did find it interesting.  I think the rule of thumb has been to try and use most food with moderation......and I'm the first one laughing at myself.  I do all right with some things but put a cheese-cake within a mile of me and its gone.  Hope I don't gain too much from now will after these holidays are over......

    Lilli, Have you ever had an opportunity to try Araucana chicken eggs?  They too are a richer tastier egg, especially when raised "free range".

    Oh Lilli thanks a lot--Chevy is no doubt sleeping but u started up about eggs. Oh all morning we're going to be talking about this.LOL

    Shirley U'r family sounds great and a DH (dear husband) for that long is wonderful--It's so nice to welcome u, but I'm sorry we are welcoming u here.

    OOHH My job is crazy--U know my DD and I both started working--we barely make it every month, but our luck with making money is like a person drowning is being thrown an anchor. Any and everything is not going right for either of us. hahaha We self prophocize (sp, if that's a word) My mind is raggED another thing is I just took a pain pill and u must know by now that at first I get  burst of some awkward lift then I come down to a slow mellow and all this time my pain lessens?? So I do blabber a lot--mostly to myself when I'm not on the computer--I told u I have voices in my head and they are all mine but I like them--they sort things out, but later I'm in the same rut that I started.

    Oh OH I saw a Beer-rita commercial for beer and cranberry juice --I don't drink but I thought that sounds interesting so I might buy it--the hell with the Aunti-B for a while and I won't take any pain meds but it just sounds so interesting to me. My sister has a glass or 2 of red wine every nite--so she doesn't take much else and she's doing a lot better than me so I should try something different--Oh well maybe loosing weight would help, but liquor might help rather than hinder.

    Chabba....sounds really interesting.  I don't think I've seen any in our local stores.  Where do you get them????  Of course, have to admit, I live in a town of only 14,000 people --- so not a booming metropolis here.  We can go to major shopping if you wish to drive an hour or more......and occasionally do, but never much for groceries. 

    Glad you understood when I said the flavor of brown eggs was just richer.  I heard this from someone else.....several years ago and was going, yeah, right to myself.  So.....being curious....I went out that day and bought a carton of brown eggs and did a side by side taste test......and found out it was true.  On rare ( if there are no brown eggs to be found ) occasion I will buy white eggs, but do all in my power not too.  Thanks for telling me....I'm going to see if there are any around here.

    Lilli, you will probably have to find someone who raises them. 

    They are interesting birds.  No two look alike.  There vast variations in feather colors, patterns and length.  They are often called the Easter egg chicken because while each hen lays only one color egg they lay pink, green or blue eggs.  The breed was raised in South America for fighting cocks.

    HaHa Cami,


    There is a popular song on the radio these days. I really like it, but now everytime I hear it I will think of you...


    "I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed. Get along with the Voices inside of my Head."


    Oh, and I am eating scrambled eggs right now! Seemed appropriate for dinner and went with the 300 sausage patties I just finished cooking :0)

    I think brown eggs taste better too. DS & DIL had ducks for a couple of years and their eggs were really good. They're larger than hen eggs and of course were right out of the nest.


    Our choice of place to eat tonight is based on how close we can park to the door. It's within walking distance, but not when it's below freezing. Seafood, here we come.


    Martha Stewart has Aracuna chickens and uses their egg colors in her decorating.

    Morning Glories! The temp has wamed up to 1.0... So we must be in for "hot" weather today...image


    Actually they said it won't be warmer until Wednesday at least....


    My Dad used to crink 1/2 and 1/2 in his cereal! But he loved it, so I wouldn't say anything about it... And I started drinking whole milk also, in my cereal.... I just like the taste.


    Hello to you Blondie girl! Good to see you feeling better! I know "they" say chemo doesn't affect your lungs, but they say a lot of things, and those "things" might affect US in different ways.... Just stay feeling better!


    44444444! It is Ed Dahling.... If you have to say Ed, add Dahling to it too... I almost forgot that was me... That cartoon was funny! That was a sex joke??? imageimageimage


    Jackie you had mentioned before somewhere about you like the brown eggs better! I have a whole dozen of "my" eggs... Just saving them for something! Those chickens lay all different colors too! Because each of them are different colors! They really are pretty in their own chickeny way!


    My blood work was good.... cholesterol is even low... Who knew? I'm still taking Cipro for that UTI that I didn't know I had, and it was probably a fluke somewhere!


    Do you guys remember "He Stopped Loving Her Today".... by George Jones? It's like you can listen to some songs, and each one has a beautiful memory for you... And Celine Dion singing the Power of Love.


    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbO3dfF9uuE


    And this one..... My youngest gave me this song ..... It is by Martina McBride... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYNOXRifXKQ


    Okay now.... Do any of you remember dancing to this?


    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-qjc17KEsc


    Ducky, I know you remember this one...


    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3M7-p0UGiM


    And Jerry Lee Lewis...


    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dC0DseCyYE


    Holeinone! Yes... you can officially be a Hoolie...Ha! You are a Shirley? Okay.... can't do much with that one... But just hang here with us...


    Cammi, I am NOT asleep.... You little dickens! No I don't think that "prophocize" is a word.... But we all knew exactly what you meant!


    You said cranberry somewhere along the line! I made the BEST Cranberry Salad! They sold it at King Soopers, and I found the recipe, and made it!


    One bag of fresh Cranberries.... (we'll be SOL if we don't hurry and by them soon....


    One small pack of sugar free cherry gelatin dissolved in one C. boiling water...


    One-half cup of diced celery


    Same with chopped Walnuts


    One small can of crushed pineapple


    One C. of sugar or Equal ( I only used 1/2 C of sugar)


    Cook the cranberries with 1 C water until they pop open... about 10 min.


    Then just mix it all together, let cool or "set" and it is really good...


    "Liquor might help rather than hinder." Cammi, you just crack me up! But that's a thought....


    Chabba.... Yes... I have someone that raises them...Ha! And the eggs ARE beautiful... I mean as pretty as an egg can be....


    444444444444... Okay, scrambled eggs for breakfast.... with milk and cheddar cheese!


    Ducky, I met DH right after graduation.... He looked just like Elvis Presley... I can still see it... 58 years we have known each other.


    300 sausage patties? Must be a misprint! Cammi, did you write that?

    Good Morning Hoolies---everyone be super nice to Chevy--Oh  I guess everyone is--so that means me. I love that pic--so beautiful and handsome--Oh how sweet. And Chevy I'll wait til later to check those songs out, once I get on I'm on for a long time.

    It's nice and cold outside I have my electric throw right next to me, in case I really get cold, but I have to take a shower today and I found some really warm stuff, I'm still finding things from moving and I forgot about my Christmas purse, so I will change that today, it's red with little snowmen and trees on it. And I have one that's wrapped like a present--I take this time of year seriously. I hve a bunch of holiday tops but have no idea where they are (sob) such cute ones too.Oh well see the problems I face, it's horrendous. Now u know how miserable my life is--I can't find my tops.!!!!

    Hey Hoolies!


    I figured I would stop by this morning before I head out to run some errands because it is IMPOSSIBLE to catch up if you take a few weeks or even days away from this board since none of you ever STFU...HA! xo


    So, the aromasin is killing me physically and my brain fog is totally unacceptable and all that MO had to say was "it is the best defense we have against recurrence and so basically I am here to be your cheerleader to ask that you keep trying until at least one year" which translates into "Suck it up beyotch, this is your new reality Bawling"


    And I do get that. I really do. But, my quality of life is seriously hampered. My eyes are so dry, (as are other more important parts..ha!) and my joints are killing me most of the time. My brain used to be really good. I am a pretty smart chick usually but now...well, not so much.


    Ok, rant over. I know that many of you are dealing with MUCH worse than me with my DCIS. I know I am blessed but damn, the cure is way worse than the disease. The rads were rough enough since I did the dose dense clinical trial of 4x the normal dose, 2x a day for a week, but sheesh, this little white pill is the pits!


    I am still reeling over Veggy. The last time I was on the boards, she was still using the pink panther avatar and I can't get that out of my mind. That cartoon character will always be Veggy to me...always.


    I cry at the drop of a hat these days. My poor hubby has not a clue what to do for me when I get like that. Anyone else cry easily when taking an AI? Is this NORMAL?


    Ok, gotta run. Maybe I will find enough energy to get my haircut today since I look like a witch these days as I tend to hibernate on the weekend and not leave the house but today, I have no choice! I have to buy some pants cause after losing 85 lbs, I gave away all of the bigger sizes and since January, I have gained back 40 of them...ugh!


    See you all later. Stay out of trouble!Winking
