Great pics Coonie.  Poor pine tree, hehehe.  Nice to hear you had such a fun afternoon escaping.

Checkum is ok......just busy.

Rainy here today.  Off to friends for a drink and appetizers.  Grrrreat, won't need to make supper!!

Linda, glad you got to escape again this weekend. I think you deserve it at least until school starts back anyway. Did you know that our schools start here this coming Monday 8/10. Their summers are getting shorter and shorter. I feel so sorry for the kids.

Hey Sharon........drink a dite coke for me and that way I can be your designated driver.We don't want you out on the side of the street trying to walk a straight line or anything, now do wel.....our sweet canadian sister arrested for drunk driving...............NEVER...........

  nOOOOOO WE DON'T WANT OUR SHARON LIKE THIS.Just make sure you have a designated driver Shron, I wiil have to get a passport and get to cananda to get your booty out of jail LOL...............

Oh my gosh!  I just found this thread and you guys are the best!  I'm actually only on my second infusion next Tuesday, but I really really like the idea of thinking about fun stuff instead.  I swam in my pool today for the first time since diagnosis.  It was heavenly.  I'm also a glass artist and I spent a couple of hours in my studio this afternoon - the first time since diagnosis.  It also was heavenly.  Life does go on, huh!  Thanks for sharing the beautiful photos and good times.

Welcome glassist.  I hope you are doing well with your treatments.  You can escape here any time!  BTW, I love cobalt, I collect old depression glass. Do you ever work with blue glass?

Sharon, I have salmon about 3 times a week because it's good for me.  I'm really getting sick of it.  Any good recipes or tricks??  I can come by and try your dish!  Just send #32 my way!

I'm off to the Cape again today.  It's supposed to be in the 90's and very humid.  When it's like that I have to get to the beach.

Tomorrow I have my mam and Friday and MRI so I could use some prayers too!

Have a great day.

Linda

Thanks for all the welcome mats and warm fuzzies!

Julz, you've been to Corning?  I'm so jealous.  That pic is a Chihuly - he's amazing.

If you get a chance to look sometime, my glass is here www.designsbydaun.com.

It's so great to read about "life after BC" and know that  all of you are out there having so much fun and living life to the fullest.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmgggggooness

were those pictures of Coonie? our Coonie???? evidence of her existence????

what a great way to start the day!!!!!!

Welcome Glassist. You'll love us. A word of warning: we are addictive.

We are also classy and understanding, full of encouragement, occaisionally hilarious.

second word of warning: don't ever read along, while swallowing drink -- you may spew the contents on your computer screen in disbelief.

I am currently hijacking DD's computer as mine has gone into oblivion apparently.

Happy escape to one and all.

xx00xx00xx00xx00xx

Can't wait to go see your website, glass.

We are a pretty creative group around here.

We catapulted Checkum into the ribbon winning survivor's tent at her recent heroic 3 day walk, through our group's collaboration.

Jo. That's exactly what happened on my computer/laptop, before it's utter melt-down.

I had a couple days of seeing only partial pics then oblivion.

I'm on DD's desktop currently.

I'd back up anything of significance to other flashdrive etc.

Hopefully it won't happen to you.

Coonie. I always thought your existence was one part urban legend and one part folk tale. The 'coon that roams in the dark -- sprinkling good cheer everywhere, but never seen by human eyes.

I had Sharon in that category, too, till she turned up on #32 with KAK's skill.

xx00xx00xx

Faithie, this is really me...

LOL......I don't photograph well at all, so that's why you'll see very little of me. But this is one of my best pics so I for sure wanted you to see it.....hehe

Hey Jo! I'm having a hard time seeing pics on this thread too. I even started a new thread the other day for some of the problems I'm having at BCO. Oh.....and one of my pics it is just from the ear up....that's the way the pic was taken

Hi there Glassist, what a beautyful artwork!

It makes me jealous to see how creative you all are (but thats in a good way ofcourse), I have some extra thumbs when it comes to making things.

Great pictures Coonie....really nice to see you are having so much fun activity!  I keep your DH in my prayers!  And you Linda as well, there is plenty of space in my prayers for my Escapee-friends!

 Julz, the blueberrys tasted great!  I made a new jam with clove, cinnamon and agave syrup, it was yummy!  Reminded me of christmas )

Love to you all, Idun

Julz4- Yes those are our trees, we also have plum and peach that we get fruit and have apple and cherry we have hopes for. We also grow strawberries, gooseberries, raspberries, and grapes, yes we are confirmed fresh fruit and veggie addicts!

Idun -  Have you used Agave syrup before?  The jam sounds great.  We will make apricot jam anad can apricot halves tomorrow.

Yes life goes on even with  Cancer, it may knock me down but I will keep getting up and do things the best I can.  Hope you all had a good day.  I really like this thread!!!
