hi 1openheart, good to see you at the fire. Congrats on becoming a grandma!
Luvmygoats, thanks for info, too bad they won't eat metal, they could eat your car (JK).
((GrannyD)) thinking of you. ((hugs)) to all
-
Hope everything went well today, Granny.
-
Granny - Thinking of you tonight. May you feel all the good wishes from your BCO sistas.
-
Veggy, please let us know if you hear any updates on Granny. I'm hoping she will be on her iPad tomorrow if she's comfortable. Hoping for the best possible report!
-
Seems Ive been slacking a little so missed the pocket party, but thinking of you tonight Granny and hope everything went well.
-
Anyone hear news about our Granny? Still keeping her in my thoughts and prayers...
-
Yes, inquiring minds (and caring hearts) want to know. ((GrannyD))
-
It's been too long....(((Granny))) can't wait to hear from you....miss you!
-
I haven't heard from her either. I do have the number to the hospital and her room number. It is not the direct number to her room. The lady I talked to tried connecting me to her room and the line was busy. I am going to try again in the morning and if I do get through I will update everyone here.
-
Thank you Jo. I continue praying for her.
-
Hey Everyone. I just talked to Granny on the phone. She is well but in a lot of pain. The doctor is talking about sending her home tomorrow. She says she will go kicking and screaming - she is not ready to go home. I don't understand why they would do that. She lives alone and in pain? She will call me when she does get home. I will keep everyone updated.
-
Thank you so much Jo.
-
Thanks Jo! ((Granny)) give 'em hell sista!
-
Just checking in after my travels. So sorry Granny is having such a rough time. Jo, thanks for updating us.
I am pretty tired from my trip, it was a good one. Today we have major stomrs and tornado warnings, so I am just resting and trying to catch up on the boards here, and watching cooking shows on TV.
Much love to all of you, and I will catch up on what has been going on with you all over the p ast week. (((((hugs to all)))))
-
hi Linda, welcome back from San Antonio. Hope you got to soak up some warmth!
Anyone have an update on Granny? Thinking of you sista! love and ((hugs)) to all
-
Haven't heard from Granny in a few days. If she does not send me a PM tomorrow, I will try to call her. Will update when I hear from her.
-
I haven't heard from her either. I sent her an email too.
-
Granny, heal well.
Sending love.
Leah

Granny...hope you're moving around now....Still keeping you close in my thoughts...Us Brooklyn gals...ya know.....we stick together!

Two women are inches from being thrown on the fire. No longer going to refer to them as friends. You know sisters, we've all been through the mill and then some...Do we really need friends who only take from us and are only generous with their time when it comes to their own families? They're pretty generous with us about their feelings... Don't they call and tell us how annoyed they are about this or that? Don't they call to ask a small favor...a ride to or from the station...a question about how to find something on the Internet... What about the name of a doctor for themselves or their loved ones... On and on and on.... But when you ask for their assistance... Oh, pardon me! They're too busy. Too busy to return a call or text. Too busy doing whatever they are busy doing because you know... their busyness is sooo much more important... I get it! ... Now I hope they will get it too... because I am finished being a friend to these selfish women who incidentally get treated like doormats by their families and don't even care because they get joy from their families keeping THEM busy! Do they have any respect for themselves? Are they capable of being friends? I really don't care. I've had 50 plus years of friendship between them and now I could care less if they ever contacted me again. Life is good without the nonsense....I still take pleasure in helping others but from now on... Just maybe I will do things for others just a tiny bit less unconditionally because I haven't the time because I am BUSY! Ahhhh.... I see the smoke now and feel a little better.

It's April 26 Friday
Granny was confused with the days
lol
-
Thanks Sheila... Noon under the clock! I hope everyone arrives on time... Going to have to leave at 1:45 ...meeting a breast cancer researcher up at Sloan Kettering... Now SHE is BUSY and still GRACIOUS with her time and answers her calls and texts...
-

So very glad you ARE back granny!
-
Ah, Granny! Things just aren't the same without you here!!!! So glad to see you back!
-
Granny! Welcome back sista, hope you're resting & healing & feeling better.
VR, those false friends are smoldering, did you throw them in or are they still inches away?
I think I shared that my boss is closing the place I work and transferring people to other locations. Just for grins, I applied for another job and got an interview but didn't get the job. Turned out to be a good thing when I found out their boss is an arrogant prick. Feeling like I dodged a bullet!
-
Granny's back!!! PARTY!!!!!
Regarding those former friends...unloading my bruised feelings must have had quite the effect... Got an email from one of them... But....before I opened the email... I realized she'd been hacked and that's why I got the email! Karma's a bitch! Not responding to them any time soon! -
Hi fellow campfire girls....I have a bunch of underwires that I pulled out of my nice, pretty precancer bras. I find that after my UMX the wire really hurts, and honestly, I don't need the lift anymore! So, I cut a small slit and grabbed a pair of pliers and pulled those suckers out! I'm throwing all those sharp, uncomfortable wires into the fire tonight. It better be hot because they will take a while to melt.
Granny, I don't think we have ever chatted, but I'm glad to see you back. I know that everyone sure was worried about you! I hope that you are up and around soon.
-
1openheart... No worries about the metal melting! On the fire we have bone density machines, radiation machines and we even have mammography machines.... Including the one that missed my tumor... All toasting on the fire... What's a little more metal added to the fire... BRING IT ON!!!!
-
Yeah! Granny's back. Time to get our party on. We sure missed you.
