Hi gorgeous girls.
All sunny and bright in the land of the Beatles !!
Supposed to be very warm today, shock horror Edi will have to remove thermal vest
Jennie, things will get better honestly, not long ago had given up convinced " normal " life was over and then things started to improve slowly but surely.
Vent and vent again as the sisters say that is what we are here for.
Carla, hair comes back quite quickly once it starts, Mine is now about 2 inches long and needs to be trimmed around top of my ears to look tidy. lol.Traii, HUG for my brave cyber baby girl. All will be fine I am sure.
Caitlin, you are Amazeballs !
Websister, sorry pain not easing, you too are amazeballs !! Working etc wow. Second week of volunteering yay. Just doing three hours a week to start and LOVING it. Everyone is so happy and they are busy so time flies.In small cafe learning the menu. Have been asked by my BC nurse would I be a BC buddy to other ladies via the telephone to speak to ladies about to start on the same journey. Feel honoured to be asked.
Please take things easy.Dakota, HUG.
Benny, gosh poor pussy cat
my little dog used to get regular visits from Johny Cash too. Ended up cutting her hair much shorter so easier to clean.Just what you need first thing in the morning.
Hope you got feed out of rain.
Take care of that arm.Liefie, Cuban lunch yum yum. I would have eaten them and sod the neighbours lol. Your DH water ski ing wow !!
Movie, Hi dear mad yank, get saving for your visit to muggy Merseyside we need to have a get together. So need lottery win to arrange a party for us all.
Two cake toppers to design today for christening cakes which their Nan is baking ( thank goodness ) One boy and one girl. Heart not in it so will have to move my ass, they are needed for tomorrow

Hi ladies -
Sorry have to root for the bruins I live practically in Boston !!!! Although I do believe we have some Canadian born players !!!
My DS is sooo excited !!!!
At work still catching up !!!!
Hugs To u all !!! -
Dakota - made me smile that your DS is so excited, helped take the sting out of last night's loss
Edi - so good to hear from you, three hours sounds good to start with, you will be (are) such a good BC buddy
Nihahi and Benny - I'm starting to wonder if we should start building an ark, this rain just doesn't seem to want to leave for long. Things are beautifully green but I would love just nice sunny weather for longer than half a day anytime soon
Carlads, Caitlin, Jennie, Traii, Alive, Maria and everyone else - think about you all
I finally received my MRI date so I am thinking that might bode well for Traii to receive her surgery date. I will have it on July 10 at noon at the newest hospital to open up here, it is fairly close to home but I haven't been there yet so will have to find my way around.
I had my performance review at work today and feel very blessed to have the manager I have. It went very well and he is incredibly supportive. He actually got a little choked up during the review and told me as we reviewed my achievements for the year that this BC journey should definitely be added to the top of the list.
Sending hugs and love, going to take advantage of a sunny break and go out to see my Mom
Take care everyone -
What's this Bruins versus Hawks thing? Is it football or something? ;-)
Well, if anyone had any designs on moving to Alberta, please heed the following information:
- January - Bitter cold, blowing winds with windchill ~ -30, and snow
- February - Bitter cold and snow
- March - lots of snow, and rain, and very cold
- April - snow, rain and cold
- May - rain, cold and maybe snow
- June - rain, rain, some hail, some sleet, might hit low teens for temp
- July - some sun, some rain, lots of hail and thunderstorms

- October - snow, cold, no leaves
- November - snow, very cold, more snow
- December - very cold, more snow, dirt, gravel and salt all over the roads
So there you have it. Yes, the economy is good here, but we pay a high price for it, IMO. So, you're better to stay where you are. And if you live in a decent climate, can I come live with you? Gawd I hate Alberta!!!!
My rant for today
I overdid it yesterday at the farm. I pinched a nerve in my back and can hardly breathe today. My own fault, but I was just trying to be useful.
Caitlin, you amaze me! There's no way I could have done all you're doing! It is possible you might find you're a bit more easily fatigued as the radiation treatments continue. If you do, please give yourself a break and take it easy.
Liefie, care to share that new recipe? I remember years ago being able to buy Cuban Lunch chocolate bars. Haven't seen them in years tho'. I would eat rocks if they had chocolate and caramel on them.
Edi, cows with umbrellas
..... that would be a daunting task to accomplish out here in cowland. Yesterday we had a rainstorm to end all rainstorms. Barn owner, two dogs and I were feeding horses but dashed to safety inside the viewing area of the arena, and sipped hot chocolate while the sky opened up. Thunder and lightening at the exact same time. CRACK!!! One of the trees at the farm got struck by lightening. No fires but a huge branch of a poplar tree came down. After the storm we loaded it onto the back of the Gator and put it in the pen for Louie the llama, Eunice the sheep, Dodge the ram, and Nancy and Stella, the pygmy goats. Well, they were like pyranhas! They had the branches picked clean in about 10 minutes! Dogs and thunder, not a good thing, but they got love and treats. The horses couldn't have cared less. They put their bums to the wind and heads down, eating grass. Of 32 horses, not a single one headed into their shelters! Oh, there I go blathering on again, I get lost in my thoughts.Okay, going to have a tea and read. Benny's bum has recovered, Paddy is happily listening to John Denver's Greatest Hits, and am going to take a Tylenol for my back.
I hope everyone has a good day
-
Websister, we must have been writing and posting at the same time. Good to hear about the date for the MRI. I didn't know the new hospital was operational yet! Are you alright with the MRI? I know they make some people a bit nervous.
-
now now Benny,
We've got mountains, wild animals, wildflowers, rivers, lakes, glaciers.......what??? You don't care for the "wrath of god weather"! It's exciting!!!! I lived in Miami for a couple years, hot and wet or just hot....boring!!!!!!
I didn't get much from yesterday's storms, just some wind and light rain. This morning, three bands of "wrath" weather went through. You and Websister are welcome to join me in the condo, should the "creeks rise"....we're on the 3rd floor, and up the hill from the river for a reason
.Websister..way to go, finally got the MRI date. I haven't been to the new South Hospital, but it has been partially open for awhile now. Good luck on the traffic....lots of construction in that area. Hope you don't have to be there anytime close to morning rush hour! I agree with your manager....what you have pulled yourself through defo is an incredible accomplishment, that few can do with your attitude and grace.
Benny...overdid it?....really???....how unlike you!!!!!! Can't say anymore than I already have before, nor will I lecture you like my physio did me yesterday
. Try icing the sore area. I really am sorry that you hurt. Enjoy the John Denver songfest. fyi....I love your "blathering on" messages!Edi...you sound so happy about the volunteer time and the "mentor" thing....a perfect fit for you. Keep filling up your days with things that make you happy! What's up with the attitude re: cake decorating????? Maybe you should make Caitlin and Jennie an "amazeball" cake, in the Boston colors of black and gold (he he he).
Well, still in the lineup via phone, trying to get the tv sorted out before hubby comes home. I think maybe something got zapped by lightning this morning, but maybe it is just a technical glitch. Thank god it didn't happen during the hockey game last night. Better be sorted out before the next game!
Later ladies.
-
Nice to hear from you Edi - sounds like you have lots on the go, as usual!
Glad Benny's bum is better Benny - remember trying to deal with my bro's Persian who had similar problems when we were growing up - no fun!
Websister - very good news on the MRI date! Still kind of amazed how long those appointments can take. Like you say, perhaps this bodes well for Traii getting a surgery date too.
Nihahi, by low stamina I mean that I can't seem to do anything that is physically demanding. Okay being at work, since I sit on my a$$ all day - can be mentally taxing, but not physically. Also did surprisingly well with walking. However, when I try to do something simple like weed the garden, feel like I'm going to pass out after 5 minutes. Even changing the bedding seems to get me in a sweat. Think it is probably low hemoglobin/RBCs, since my counts were low by the end of chemo. I know Liefie has mentioned several times that it can take months to get back to normal - guess I'm getting a bit impatient. The other thing that is getting old is being bald. Especially now that the weather is warmer, can't wait to rip the wig off when I get back from rads each day - at least I can see a few hairs now, but regrowth is very, very slow.
Don't blame you for cheering for Boston, Dakota! Great that your DS is so excited. I grew up in Eastern Canada, so the Boston sports teams were popular with a lot of the people there, being relatively close. However, I was always a died in the wool Toronto fan.
Time to see what's for dinner. This week I planned ahead, by putting together a menu on the weekend and doing a major grocery shop so I wouldn't have to think too hard during the week.
-
Liefie....how'd the visit to the PS go today????? Hope you had a good drive/time with hubby.
-
Hi girls,
First off, Websister, sooooo glad about that MRI date. Now if Traii can just get a surgery date, everything will be perfect.
Weather in Victoria was sunny and glorious today. PS is very satisfied with my progress, and took photos of my new 'asset' and flat tummy. Good thing my face is not on the photos. She thinks I will probably need a small lift on the healthy side to even things out, and the nipple will be done at the same time (if I want it - not sure why I would need it?) That will only be in January which suits me perfectly. I am certainly in no hurry for more surgery - lol. She is 4 weeks from having her (first) baby, and this is her last week of work for a while. Could see that she was tired this afternoon. Took her a bouquet of flowers and wine - I like her so much, and I'm just so grateful for what she has done for me.
I felt really tired and listless earlier today. My hemoglobin is still low after surgery, so will make chicken liver pate tomorrow, and start taking an iron supplement. Don't like it, because it has that unpleasant SE . . . Will have to invest in dried prunes - lol. TMI, sorry girls!
Going to bed, too sleepy now. Have a good night everybody!
-
Dear Bellies.....I so love getting on here after you have posted....then I get to read and respond with.......whatever....
Edi, so nice to hear from you! Glad you love your new volunteer position ....I imagine the people you are to help will LOVE you!
Websister....so glad the MRI is scheduled......will be nice to get the back issues figured out.
Traii-this should bode well for you and YOUR surgery date! (See above @ Websister).
Dakota, love that you check in on the fly at work! I am not a hockey fan (sorry)......soccer is my drug of choice.
Caitlin, I have not been through any of the difficult things you have, and I get wiped out doing housework STILL....surgery was 5 months ago.....
Benny-love your description of Alberta weather.....I don't believe it! Just substitute rain for the snow.....that's Oregon weather......year round. There's a reason our universities' sports teams are named the Ducks and Beavers.........
Nihahi......hope you are taking good care of MY TimTams......don't break any in Waterton....hopefully you are asleep by now......:)
Liefie....I hear you on the nipple......not sure I care enough about it....but I suppose I could learn to care!
. Glad your PS visit went well.......
To everyone I haven't mentioned....sorry....I am typing this with one finger and one eye closed ...... Heading to bed!
Love to all.......
Namaste and God bless - Jackie -
Good Morning all,
Liefie...glad to hear your PS visit went well. I'm on iron supplements too, and don't like the tummy upset, but, it's small potatoes, right??!
Movie....I'm not the one using the T word....but I do have plans for Waterton!!!!!
Websister and Benny.....ark building seminar today...I'll bring the coffee. This truly is getting old, but.....Movie ain't kidding....she has this weather as a norm!
Facial sutures coming out today....so itchy I'm gonna be first in line at the clinic doors to get them out!!!!!!
Maria...saw on the news about the Denver tornado. Really relieved it didn't do any damage. You're likely getting the same weather storms we are. We must get a plan together to send this stuff somewhere else!
Alive...thinking of you often, even if you can't post to us.
Caitlin.....I think you're doing amazing stuff WHILE still having rads....not gonna change my opinion, no matter how you explain your day....YOU ARE DOING GREAT!!!!
Benny, hope the back is feeling better.
Dakota.....have a great day....GO BRUINS!!!! Here's my plan...Chicago wins tonight, back to Chicago where the BRUINS win, which the takes the next game back to BOSTON, so the BRUINS can win the cup at home!
Have good days.
-
Well Well Ladies, guess who got her surgery date ?????
Drum Roll please .......Friday ..... 5th .....July .......THIS YEAR!!!!!!!!!
Ok so even though I have known about this coming for a while, and the nerves built up, anxiety and all..I just broke down crying when I found out...but I'm over it now.....gonna say bye to these girls, it's been a good 35 years knowing them but one deceived me and as they are a pair, they will go toghether...LOL.
When I walked into my onc this morning he said, well you haven't had your surgery, I'll be back, going to 'kick some ass' in is Irish accent..and within 5 mins my breast surgeon came in and said that she was sorry and that she hadn't forgotten about me, then the plastic surgeon came in and just need to confirm what size boobies I wanted......he asked if I had any questions and boom, the emotions started flowing!!
Websister, glad MRI is sorted and set.
Nihahi, wishing you well today in getting those stitches out
Liefie, hope those prunes gotta working for ya!!
Edi, hugs cyber mummy.....I've been feeling like crap the past couple of weeks, but the past couple of days this cold has taken its toll. My onc gave me a strong 5 day dose of antibiotics, just hoping Johnny doesn't come visit because of them!! lol
Movie, hope you've eased of those Timmy Tammys...lol.....
Caitlin, hope you are feeling well
My love to all ladies I've missed but I'm getting tired today...yeh maybe have some panadol and get some sleep tonight with this blocked nose and coughing ...... this antibiotics better kick in tomorrow...lol
Have a great day all, and good night from me xoxo
-
TRAII....!!!!!! I know it sounds crazy, but congrats on the date. It isn't at all surprising re: your reaction....knowing somethings "coming" and then facing the reality of it...2 completely different things. You've held yourself together amazingly, I am glad to hear you let some of those emotions out! YOUR ONCO DOC SOUNDS LIKE A TRUE CHAMPION FOR YOU......excellent cage rattling on his part! I hope you're feeling better soon, and I have no doubt that all the internal stress you've had has been contributing to your "colds, etc.". You'll be over this last hurdle and on with the rest of your life soon. Get some sleep, be good to yourself, make some plans for some diversional fun between now and your surgery.....giant hugs going out to you.
-
Trail - doing a happy dance for you !!!!! Yahoo !!!!
-
Traii - hugs ((())). Hope antibiotics kick in and Johnny keeps his distance. Glad you have a date in the not too distant future but a bit of time to prepare in every way, including kicking the cold. Is it the cold causing the between breast discomfort?
Caitlin - I agree with others however I do understand the frustration with the fatigue when doing activities like weeding. It can also cause concern as it is hard to know what is normal, it varies so much with all of us.
Benny - loved your post. I have decided you will be perfect to gather the animals for our ark, better stock up on John Denver music also Bruins and Hawks, maybe you can bring them along also
Nihahi - I am imagining you staking out your spot at the clinic doors as I write. Hope the healing has gone well with minimal scarring. I will bring some fruit and veggies to ark building 101, going in for a 1 1/2 hour meeting at work today followed by a dentist appointment so no baking or sweets on the menu today
Liefie - so good to hear your good report from your surgeon, that was so nice to bring her wine and flowers. Nipples - why not, you've gone this far and it would be at same time as the other surgery
Movie - you can keep your weather, but I do love the scenery in your part of the world. Hope you managed a good sleep
Edi, Carlads, Jennie, Dakota, Maria, alive and everyone else - wishing you a good day -
TRAII, Yayyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!! Good thing you have that cold now, and not the week of the surgery. Hope the antibiotics work their magic, and a little Vit. C supplement won't do any harm either. Last year I got a cold right before my MX. On the morning of the surgery when I woke up, it was gone after my nose had been running for days. Prayed so hard, because I just wanted that surgery over, and not to be postponed. Now you can prepare, and get your ducks in a row. Yayyyy again!
Websister, I was too sleepy last night to comment properly, but way to go girl re you performance review! Your manager sounds amazing, but then again, he struck gold when he got you for a worker. So wonderful that he acknowledges what you have been through - what a nice guy.
Benny re Alberta weather - people used to joke when we lived there that if you haven't experienced a season yet, just wait for half an hour, and the weather will change - lol. I loved Alberta, and it has its own beauty. One just has to make the best of it . . . it is what it is. In the end a place is what you make of it, right? Will send you that recipe. It should come with a warning that it's addictive.
Caitlin, good for you on planning menus ahead. Makes things much easier. Hope that energy comes back more every day, but I think you are doing really well. The hair takes its own time too - with bc one certainly learns patience if you learn nothing else - lol.
Nihahi, can't believe I've not been taking extra iron since surgery. Didn't know that my hemoglobin was low. One would think that after all the surgeries I would be sharper on this, but nooooo . . . . When I suddenly ran out of steam in WalMart yesterday, and had to go outside and sit down, DH caught on. Nurses told him it was low when I was released from hospital, and he assumed they told me too. That's also why I have not been walking as much as I should - just did not have the energy. Oh well, since last night he's fed me two iron capsules already, and will check on me like a stern old nurse from now on - LOL. Also found multigrain flour, a 5 kg bag, so will be baking your bread this weekend. Will try to have better willpower this time around!
Edi, good for you on that volunteering. I'm sure you will cheer everybody up, and they will just love you, I know that! Did take that sweet stuff to the neighbours. Nobody home, so I stuck it in their fridge. Next day when I phoned to tell them where it came from, it was all eaten already, had to send the recipe, and I'm sure they've made their own batch by now. LOL.
Alive, hope you are continuing to improve daily. Looking forward to hear from you when you can post again.
Jennie, hope you are doing well, and feeling better.
Have a good day, everybody! DH just invited me to come and see his latest feat outside - men are like children that way, eh? Still in my pj's, but what the heck. This is my yard, and I will walk around outside in my pj's if I want.
-
Traii yippie it is about time. Hopefully you can relax a bit now.
I've been keeping up with all of you, just having one of those down on BC weeks. I'm begining to see a pattern treatment week really gets me down. Also not sure what to do about work, I'm going to talk to my Onco today, wish my job wasn't so physical, but it is what it is.
-
Nihahi, good luck on those sutures coming out. Another scar to massage, I guess? PS showed me yesterday how to massage the tummy scar, now I should just do it - sigh!
Movie, I've offered this on the other thead too. Can I put some Timtams on the ferry for you?
Maria, what a beautiful woman you are! Yes, treatment weeks suck big time. I felt as if I could climb out of my own skin and run far, far away, and crawl under a bush somewhere to lick my wounds . . . You are in the thick of it now, and as it goes on, it does get better. You get more used to the routine and SE's, and know what works for you. Just hang in there - THIS TOO SHALL PASS, is what I kept telling myself. How many more chemos do you have? I admire you for still working that physical job. I was wiped out during chemo and for months afterwards, and was not able to work at all, let alone a physical job. Hopefully you can get some time off; that will help a lot. Hugs to you!
-
Go Boston!
-
maria....you're gorgeous!!!! That smile just shines though cyberspace. Hope you can find some way to modify your work for awhile...it won't be a forever thing, but you might find the chemo more manageable.
dakota....this is looking like another wild game!!!!!
Websister, Benny.....ark building now on fast track....supplies getting loaded...who's got the oars????
-
Maria - agree re: beautiful - love the new avatar
Nihahi - overtime! Go Hawks
I think I saw some oars floating by my house a few moments ago, I'll try to fetch them. Fast-tracking the ark seems imperative at this point. Wow!
The tears I spilled after my dental appointment today haven't helped - sorry
Tomorrow is one year from diagnosis, still seems like no end in sight at times, tomorrow is Herceptin again. Having my teeth cleaned just seemed to be one more procedure too many being done to me, spent a teary evening. Feeling better now, better get those paddles.
Take care everyone -
Maria, I am with Nihahi on this one......you look lovely! Hopefully you can find a way to modify and manage your physically demanding job during your treatments......
TRAII!!!!! So excited for you! Told you your surgery appt. was coming this week! (Thanks to Websister getting her MRI appt.....knew that was a good omen for you!)
Your emotions seem very normal to me.....they will probably vacillate back and forth, up and down until you are wheeled OUT of the operating room.....Just take care of yourself, and GET RID OF THIS BUG.....so they don't postpone! By the way.....have discovered a place to order TImTams by the case!!!!! Can see my waist (now on my foobs) expanding!!
Websister, our weather is the price we pay for living here! (I tell myself that every time I am facing ANOTHER 10 solid days of rain!).
Nihahi...the only plans you'd better have for MY TimTams in Waterton is for you to eat them, and love them! I have turned my entire family (sans DH, who is gluten-free...hehe) into TT addicts......makes me feel less guilty about obsessing over them, and yes, I KNOW that I am pathetic! Any thunderstorms tonight up there? We were supposed to have them this evening...but the sky seems to be clearing. Good thing....I am doing a 5 mile walk tomorrow with a friend, and hate to rain walk. However, here you do it when you have to or you would never walk! How's the hockey? I am watching my Timbers take on the Galaxy of LA. Watched the last 3minutes of NBA finals last night, and when Miami tied San Antonio I knew I couldn't watch the overtime....don't think my heart could take it! I WISH I liked hockey....too much like soccer on steroids for me to follow! I do like the fistfights, however......
Edi, Benny,Jennie, Dakota, Alive, Caitlin, and everyone else...I am wishing you all a calm and peaceful evening(day).....
(((hugs))) going out to all!.....
Namaste and God bless - Jackie -
Websister...I am sending you a special cyber(((hug))) tonight....may peace and calmness surround you this evening......
Jackie -
Well crap, Chicago just scored in overtime.....but....my theory was they would win tonight, then Boston takes the next two, winning the cup at home. Movie...my son was a hockey goalie...played for YEARS and was very, very good. I have spent several lifetimes sitting in freezing cold hockey arenas, in the wee hours....no worries, Dakota..we've still got this in the bag.
Websister...hugs going out....I totally get the "one procedure too many" emotions. Currently trying desperately not to scratch off the steristrips! Forget the oars....wind is too strong I think. I'm gonna strip the bed and rig sails instead. I'm not sure if I just saw lightning, or a distress flare from Benny. Keep treading water, I'm coming for you.
Traii...been thinking of you all day....you're one brave sister.
Have a good night ladies...time to go put on the lifejackets, here.
-
I've got oars. In fact, I have a 4 man raft in the basement. Completely forgot about that. We could get ourselves in there plus some Cuban Lunch (I made some, it's in the fridge). Does anyone mind if I bring the rescue pidgie? We'll just have to sing John Denver songs. The rain is pelting down here!!! It occurred to me that it's past mid June, I still have a down comforter on my bed and the furnace running. ~sigh~
My eyes are drooping badly so can't talk long. Websister, I am so sorry that your day isn't better. You most certainly deserve a holiday from everything that has happened this past year. Weird thing.....I had a dentist appointment this morning too! And I know what you mean about wanting to move forward and leave some of this behind. I keep thinking how awful 2012 was, and 2013 doesn't seem much better. But then if I hadn't found the breast cancer and spent this year in treatment, the next year would be much worse. If you need anything please don't hesitate to call or email. Sending you a big cyber hug.
I have to go to bed, can hardly type/think/keep head up. I think it's a post-sugar crash from licking the bowl after I made the Cuban Lunch. (hey, someone had to do it)
Okay, longer post in the morning.... goodnight everyone (((((hug))))))</p> -
Thanks, ladies - I'll be OK, sometimes good to cry a little
Sails, raft, float plane - whatever, I'll be waiting on the roof which, by the way, just sprung a leak. Cuban lunch should keep the sugar levels up and John Denver, rescue pidgin and Benny the cat ok to come along. Benny, weird. Born within hours of each other and we even go to the dentist on the same day!
Movie - 4 boys in hockey, DH still plays also, three of my boys were also referees for extra money and I was in labor with my youngest in a hockey arena, hoping it would take a while as my third son was on the ice, DH at work and I still needed to get them all fed and to bed. Good son that he is, my fourth did wait although we pulled the midwife away from the Calgary Flames hockey game she was attending to deliver him -
Websister......too funny a story. Totally a canuck thing!!!!!!
crazy lightning here now, think I'm gonna shut down the electronics. Peaceful dreams to all.
-
Hmmph.....my Timbers only managed to eke out a 0-0tie against the LA Galaxy......I think that soccer can be the most frustrating game sometimes.....do you all feel that way about Hockey? Making progress tonight....at least I am sitting on my bed, even if I am not dressed for bed yet.....I am at least an hour ahead.
Really hope you Albertans get some "rainrelief soon". But if not, and you board Benny's raft....float down the Columbia river and pick me up.....your party sounds too good to miss....rescue pigeon, Singing John Denver tunes, and Nihahi, be sure and grab the TimTams......
XO. Jackie -
Tears are good websister, I did enough of that yesterday ! My eyes were burning that much I was in bed early!! (well by midnight is early for me ok) !! lol. We are allowed to cry whenever we want!
Thanks for all your congrats ladies. You are all gems. As soon as I got my news yesterday I knew I had made lots of woman less frustrated for me, lol. I know I will have you with me every step of the way. Question, do you have drains JUST for a BMX, not getting any nodes out so didn't think so. I forgot to ask my PS yesterday......
Freezing here. Took DS to the library, he was such a good boy. Now he is watching the DVDs he chose while mummy has a break!! Then I think I'm going to make some banana and sultana bread. ( got the recipe off the back of the sultana pack so hope its nice, sounds ok)! lol.
Movie, no researching of the Tim Tams.....by the case, no don't do it...LOL. I've resisted the temptation today of buying a packet whilst down at the grocery store. !!
Good night my sweethearts.....sleep well for those of you going off to bed soon. Its 3:30pm here....still plenty of time for play here! xx
-
Hi ladies !!!!!
We finally got rid of the rain so I hope u do too !!!!!
Maria - love the picture !!!!
Ok so the bruins lost honestly I won't loose sleep over any of it once its done just live to watch it with DS and listen to him comment even tho he's only 9. He is so damn cute!!!! At work. Busy schedule so can't chat long !!! Love and hugs to everyone. I want in one the boat !!!!!
