    Barbara, SAMe can cause insomnia, so take it all in the AM. Also use B vitamins at the same time for absorption. Good luck today and tomorrow!!!!

    Barbara, knock 'em dead on the presentations! 

    3jays, it's always good to see you!   Hope things are looking better, and you're always in my prayers.

    FLwarrior, welcome to you.  Pull up a chair and join right in!  I noticed that you and I had the same diagnosis.

    Oh, the pollen index here was the highest ever recorded today and my claritin is having little effect.  DH blew off the driveway early this morning and the driveway's not so yellow now, but my black car is just covered.  This is the oak pollen and it doesn't affect DH like it does me.  The pine pollen gets him later.  Would love to open the windows, but dare not take a chance!

    Hope everyone's having a good day.

    Kathy

    It went GREAT!! They really liked it and we had around 50! That is more than we thought we would have. Tomorrow is at 1:30. Probably way less people because it is the last day of the conference and people leave throughout the day.

    Safe travels home Barb,  I knew you would do a fantastic presentation.  Hope the SAM-E is working well for you. 

    Isabella - looking forward to hearing the rest of the wedding story.  Your exDH is a real peice of work and he needs to go fend for himself and get out of your business.

    Isabella, as always, I stop and read your posts word for word because you have such storytelling skill it's unbelievable!!!

    Barb, major hugs to you hon. I've been behind in reading, so had no idea you were suffering from depression over work. I'm soooo glad the presentation went well and I hope only good things come from it.

    Love and hugs to all. Things are good in my world :)

    That's beautiful.  I absolutely love the yellow poppy.  We have orange Icelandic gettinng pretty tall in back yard, so soon in Spring for them, I think if it snows here in NW IN, they will take the hit worse than others, will cover them.

    I follow this thread often and post sometimes. So I will ask, please ....

    Yesterday I started a topic that I hope others will post to so we can help women who may be being told that they do not have bc and should not be concerned about things like lumps that are 'peas' or pain or exhaustion.  I hope you will share what you went through prior and pass it forward.

    Breast Cancer Symptoms - a comprehensive list by those w bc

    Yep, I can stay on Adriamycin.   The onco asked Where did you get that idea when I was asking what we are going to do now, saying how I would sign a waver since I knew I was approaching the limit and I said the PA....it is supposedly his own private PA also.   Hope I didn't get her into big trouble, but I think she needs to be informed about things before she tells patients something that is not at all true.   I was a mess all week.

    Barb,   Hoping you get some offers soon.  

    Isabella, loved the wedding story and glad you got the nurses straightened out on your appts and hope you get that back fixed soon.   Glad DH is gone.....well sort of....are they ever really when in the same area?.....but it was very kind of you to help him out. 

    Elisimo, Still can't get used to your name, but always nice to see you posting and hear that you are doing well.

    I am going to Williamsburg VA tomorrow AM with my buddy, Kathy who has a time share there.  We will be meeting up with three other friends.  I will be taking my little lap top so that I can check in, but hope to get a lot of reading and R & R in. 

    To the ones of you I talk to via phone, I will try to stay in touch, but if I don't, don't worry about me....just means I forgot the phone or the charger again.

    Have a good day everyone.  Good luck with the knee, Chrissy.

    The "new" person is marginally better than the last one but is still a micro-managing control freak who also happens to be power-hungry.
