Hey Monica, yes I had a lumpy with 6mm clear margins (call it 1/2 inch in your world) 0 of 7. But apparently the radiologist wanted 4 biopsies on 4 cancer suspicious spots. They only did one, so that's what my BS operated on. The sad part is that they were all close. 9, 9:30 and 2 at 10:00. Could've scooped em all at once. But they only did one so three are left inside. So now more knife work, rads, chemo and tamoxifen for 5 - 10 years.
Warm sands and great drinks
Dancing until the morning
My vacay will rock
-
whoooo boy. When are you going on vacay? Or did you say and I missed? Color me clueless. LOL
Badger,
Hoar frost is pretty
Everything covered in ice.
But h*ll to drive on!

Eighteenth january
That's when we fly to the warmth
Leave all this behind
-
Damsels in distress / Exist only in the minds / Of the errant knights
Looking for a way / To justify their lifestyle. / Armour-plated men
Who drink and carouse / And congratulate themselves / On being manly.
Better for women / Is for us dames to keep our / Selves out of distress.
In the modern world, / Not bride but baby mama, / Damsel rescues knight.

Haiku can express
a thought a feeling a dream.
Words are lovely things.
-
Words can be flowers
Words can be fluffy white clouds
Words can also BITE.

Sometimes the Metre falters
Sometimes it goes astray.
Sometimes thoughts run like water
Sometimes they run away.
____
Thoughts are captured in a flash
Or lost once more in time
To circle , dip, burn or crash
While waiting for a rhyme.
____
Words will spew across the page
Or gently land and fall
There's no real way to gauge
Just how the Muse will call.
____
To rip out what hides in fright
And show the dark within
Or touch laughter and the light
Amidst the ego's din.
____
Sometimes the word's frustration
Sometimes the choice is hard
Sometimes exasperation
Sometimes, oh yes, Sometimes,
Sometimes,
I am a Bard!

Oh Monica that was lovely. Yay. Happy feelings.
My hubby feels lost
Doesn't know how to help me
Sorry he just can't.
Poor baby

Red, be sure you let him know just being there and caring is a help....
Glad you guys liked my poem. This is the poem I wrote in ten minutes when I showed a friend, who was an English major, another of my poems. He said" well, the Metre falters here, but you always get your feelings across." I said thanks Sat down, AND dang If this one didn't just fall out on the paper. LOL
