    Sharon --- that is probably what I WILL look like packing --- I am such a bad packer!!!  Especially when the directive is to go lite.

    Yeah!!  Arnie.  Get it over and done with!!  Then you can go home and snuggle up with Gary and both of you can recover together!!

    CHeckum, that's how I pack too!

    Julz, I'm on my way over to sample some of that food.  Is that way I've gained weight??

    Hugs to Coonie!

    Hey Escapees!!!! Well, I can sure feel the pressure now. I've got DD out shopping for "pennant" stuff:)........got home last night and feel soooooo much better!!! Very wear and a little "blah", but definitely better!! Thank you all for your words of encouragement, prayers and thoughts. I FELT them the whole week!!!

    Jo----so sorry your trip wasn't the best. Next year the Smokey's ?????!!!!!!

    Arnie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I've caught bits and pieces of some problems your DH is having. Oh My Goodness!!! I'm so so terribly sorry. Is he better? Do they know what's wrong? How are you? I see you're having chemo today. I'm praying for you and Mr. Arnie.........at the top of my list. I realy am so very sorry you're having to go through this at the same time...........chemo and DH health.

    One thing I learned while being flat of my back (Other than puking in a pan) is that others have thins so much worse and I never want to forget or put aside the hurts of what others are going through. I didn't experience nausea during chemo, but I know some of you have. My heart and prayers go out to you. I wouldn't wish that on my WORSE enemy. I pray for God to send extra angels to be with you during this time and for you both to feel His strength and encouragement. Just do like I've done the past week.........it'll pass.........it won't last forever. It CAN'T last forever:)

    I love you all and I REALLY AM planning to get my pennant to you soon Checkum:) Oh, and it sure looks like I've missed some of the cow business:) I need somebody to catch me up.........ok?

    Oh my goodness............Julz!!! Normally, I would attack that food with a vengence.........but right now, grits (that's a good southern dish) is the only thing that settles well on my tummy:)

    Hugs back at ya Makraz!!!!!

    (((((((((((((((((((Coonie))))))))))))))))))) NO PRESSURE~!~  Get your self back on two feet before you go making pennants - plenty of time.  I have sure missed you and I am glad to see you back posting.  Yes, I know what you mean that you can always find someone in a worse jam than you are ... but, that is not to minimize the crap you are dealing with my dear.  We all have missed you and are sending up thoughts for healing for you each day.  Nothing worse than nausea... I had 2 days of it when I had surgery... puked on the doctors foot - they didn't get the pan to me fast enough :)

    (((((((((((((((((((checkum))))))))))) thank you my friend:)

    You WILL have my pennants.........one way or the other.....hehe (LOL)

    Speaking of puking...........I have made the most humiliating fool of myself this past week. Going back through the ER Thursday night after arriving by ambulance 'cause my blood pressure was in the "stroke" zone...........I remember sitting up on a stretcher (naked).........asking for a bed pan..........30 seconds later.........no bed pan.............pee, puke and poop..........all OVER EVERYTHING...........bed, floor.......I hope I never have to face those people again, but at the time, I didn't really care.................ok, I know...........that's a little too much information:)

    Well Coonie, they'll likely provide the bed pan a little snappier when the next person asks.Wink  Don't worry snookums............they've seen way worse than that.

    I think I'll try that one Jo :)........or just a football helmet or something.

    I prayed for the good Lord to just let me live, and when He's ready for me, take me soon.

    I would hate to lay in a hospital bed or nursing home bed. That really scares me. Much more

    so this week.

    Aww Checkum.  I was going to say "awww poop" but that hardly sounds appropriate.  Anyway, just have it done and they'll you'll feel relieved 'cause all will be ok.  I just think because of b.c. we are at a bit higher risk.  Well at least that's what my colonoscopy Dr. said.

    Coonie is back.  And COONIE.......you ain't goin' anywhere any time soon.!!

    Arnie's the only one who caught the zebras! No one else pays attention to the pics....Cry

    Coonie, 2 years ago I had chest pains and was sweating so I went to the ER. I was left sitting in the ER while my blood pressure went up to 212 over 114 and I am on FIVE blood pressure medications. I never saw a doctor! They 'assumed' I was having an anxiety attack! (as I calmly did my crossword puzzles for 5 hours). A month later I failed a stress test. Doi! I told my doc they would have to take me in the back of a hearse for me to go back to the ER. I'm certainly glad you got better service!

    Will be thinking of you today arnie, as you get the chemo. I probably won't get another chance to check in as I'm soooooooo busy at work! Yell
