    Sahalie, Jaz is for sure a keeper.  I love her.  I love you also.  I loved wading in the sand and waves with you today.  Very relaxing.  Hermie actually pinched my toe but a real hermie pinced yours and I was a tad jealous. LOL

    Here is Hermie bringing you an extra drink for free.

    We walked for miles and talked for hours and enjoyed your company very much, found shells, sea glass, and all kinds of drift wood.

    Night to all and hugs to all.  granddaughter is here wanting my attention.

    AlwaysHope - I just read your post about random acts and guess what???  I did!  My mom and I were at a local diner for a quick supper tonight when I overheard a gangily young man at the counter trying to find out which of the pastries cost $1, which was all he had.  I just hopped up and put another dollar on the counter, the waitress pitched in fifty cents, and he was able to get a soda with his cinnamon bun. 

    When he was finished, he came over to ask if there was anything he could do for me.  Of course, by this time, I was wishing I had given him more than a buck, but I just told him, honestly, it was really my pleasure.  And, it was!

    I know he'll pay it forward in some way.  Gotta remember to be on the lookout for more opportunities.  It's so easy to get wrapped up in my own woes.

    Faith.....I looked in to see your GROOVY BRIGHT BEACH PAD. WOW....COLOR YOU VIVID....You dip your toes on the Wild Side! Wink  Black, Red, & White. Oh how Wonderful....

    I found pajama pants at Walley World in black & white leopard print today....when I saw them I thought FAITH would look right at home in that beddy room wearing these....Tongue out!

    Susan......that was such a wonderful thing to do for that young man....Sometimes it's the Little things that mean the most.....because they are Somehow a REALLY BIG thing for the person we do them for!  I love to stop & help someone empty their bags of groceries into their car & take the cart back....whether it be an elderly person or a mom with there hands more than full with the kids.  It only takes a little of MY time.....but would like to think that it means more for the person that receives......

    Dream I was just getting to you & your post.....(I had to put the Kiddlettes to bed)......I had read your latest toe dipping writing excursion....your expression is always at the forefront....taking what ever steps are needed to let the ebb & Flow of what you might be feeling at the time show through. As always your well crafted words let us see some of you & feel your journey.

    Happy Hearts Day tomorrow all to each shining shell. 

    Glisten and smile* You never know who is getting joy from your smile.

    My nice dealy today was paying the bridge toll for the family in back of me.

    Someone did that once for me and I was pleased beyond belief.  I thought what a thoughtful idea and has been a random act ever since.  When I have an extra $5.

    Hi Julz.  And All.  Again.  Happy Hearts on the February of the 14th.

    Big happenings tomorrow.  I will either be happy as a clam or nervous to the max.

    Spar.  Thank you.  Ditto.  Big Ditto.  Thank YOU. 

    Wishing you all hearts* flowers* of course chocolate* and a smiley day.

    Big Amgen Tour beginning in Davis tomorrow heading over to my coastline.

    Expected massive rains and huge winds.  Poor guys.  It's a great race and we've always been out at the Oyster place on this weekend with cool days but tons of sun and excitement as all the colors of bikes speed by us at the almost speed of light. 

    Tomorrow will be a little different due to the weather.  Mr. Lance himself Armstrong to enter this year and is on the same team this year with our favorite homeboy who has won the last two years.  I wish I could pull him aside and tell him he got me thru the day I saw the "infusion" room for the first time.  His poster was up on the wall and steadied my jumping nerves.

    I have not been to this beach in so long. I did read a little and then it got away from me again. I have been so busy....The grand babies have been sick and so have their parents. So Michael and I have been helping out.

    I had a wonderful time at the "Real" beach last week end. It was wonderful. Just what we needed. So glad we went.

    Here are a few pictures I took....

    The clock is ticking away... 5 more days.  I am nervous, anxious and I probably should stop reading anything because I think I am winding myself up...  I am so afraid that they will find more of this crap that is inside of me.   I think that is my biggest fear.  Anyway, today is the day that I am going to make my list and start to prepare.  Meals, stuff, take care of the things that need to be done before I can't do them... I know I sound like I am rambling... I am.

     Love you gals!

    Checkum. We're here for ya. Feel free to ramble, shout, digress, cry, moan, swear, and or laugh... we're here for the duration.

    What a gorgous set of pics MaryLou from your own camera. I felt like I was perched right there on your shoulder having a parade down the shores. Love it. Love it. Thanks for thinking of us. So glad that you had a get-away.

    Have fun beach bunnies. May this day of love saturate your very heart.

    Footie. I'll go look for some hot chocolate for you & Hermie to share.

    Good morning Beach babes.  Mary Lou, so sorry to hear about the grandkids and their parents.  I hope they are on the mend soon.  Foots, hugs to you, Checkum, hang in there.  I'll be praying that your neo-adjuvant chemo did a wonderful job and this will finally have you cancer free.  Sahalie, you always have such a lovely way with words. Spar, how is the puppy?  By the way, I was curious, what color schemes did you use in your new house?  Julz, I was just teasing about the nekkid dancing. LOL  Hi, to everyone from A to Z.

    Wow!  I am so grateful that you want to help with this project.  :)  I can't wait to see them and put them in an afgan.  I meant to ask, are you going to have someone there with you after your surgery to help you?   I wish I had some great words of comfort for you but this is a pretty sucky time, plain and simple.  But from your posts I've read in the past, you have a strong faith in God and He will carry you through.  I wish we lived closer.  :)

    my husband that is it.  He took Monday off (to be home to help) .. then we will figure things out and make sure I have everything I need around me while he is working.  I do have a strong faith and I know that I will get through this fine.  I just am sooooo hoping that this is my last hurdle.

    Knowing that you gals are here and that you understand is more help than words can say... I don't know what kind of shape I will be in - but, I do plan on bringing my puter to the hospital - they have wireless.
