    Oh, Peggy, I was just referring to someone else who likes to post (ramble, not make much sense) when drunk and I was hoping that I didn't come across that way. That's all. Didn't mean to be cryptic!





    Janis, I don't know about anyone else but me, but I bet you have us all wondering. Is it me? What did I write? Should I check all my recent posts? Is it my typos? Did I say something mean to someone?

    OK, I got a pm that hipped me to the dirt that went down last night. I always miss all the fun (luckily)

    I really woulda been pretending. The only cryptic word I get is couch. How did very and much become code words. (Looking for the couch.)
    So glad I do not have to check myself into Betty Ford, for "drunk dialing" at bc.org. Thanks for the
    clarifications.

    Shel- love your new location. Maybe I should change mine to Loveseat? lol

    For some reason I always feel so lost, but that's okay. Ignorance is bliss.

    Hi Vickie! I can't wait!! I'm glad that you've joined us over here. It's so much fun. Hey counted a few more grays this week. I'll be coloring my hair sooner than I thought. Was going to say dyeing, but don't like that word anymore.

    ALL- Did you know that you can edit your posts and check the little box and know one will know that your posts have been edited. That way people can't go back and see what's edited and what's not. Or who's had a little too much to drink the night before. That'll really confuse everyone. Cryptic, huh?? And you guys thought I was dumb. Just pretending, well sometimes. LOL!!!

    Have one for me tonight, ladies. I just got a call from a friend, free Toby Keith tickets.

    Now, if I could just figure out who Toby is...country, right? I am a rock and roller from WAY back.

    (hey, newvickie, I am a natural blonde, too!...also a bloodsucking nurse, LOL!)

    CHEERS!

    Tody Keith...yup he's country but fun.
    Are you still a natural blonde?
    Wishing the hair on my head would grow as fast as the hair on my legs...I'd have a ponytail by now...have to shave every friggin day for crying out loud! And that used to be blonde too...couldn't even SEE it...no such luck now. Listen to me...complain about no hair, complain about too much hair. Just no pleasing me LOL.
    Bottoms up

    No chemo here, so I got to keep my hair. So, guess what I did? I dyed it RED! After 43 years as a blonde, it's taken some getting used to...

    Vicki, you'll enjoy Toby he puts on a good show!

    C+Vickie, have you thought about waxing, then you wouldn't have to worry about it for a few weeks!

    It's just after 4pm here and I broke my rule and have already downed half a wine cooler. (not allowed to drink because of the blood thinners, but I don't go in for my test for another 12 days I think so maybe I'll just tye on one tonight. Think I have come So. Comfort in the other room. I guess I find out if I'll lose the house the end of this week, so no time like now to tye one on

    But it's the weekend Cheryl. It's okay to break the rules on the weekend. I'm enjoying a glass of wine.

    Couldn't resist a posting for this subject!!! I did calm things down during chemo and rads, but I'm sorry...drinking is a part of me and I never gave it up all together. I did drink Buckler's non-alch beer - I recommend highly - in between regular beers. I do find ... 7 months post chemo ... that I think alcohol affects me differently, not for the better! I forget more easily and will find myself "suddenly" drunk. Have a good husband that looks out for me though

    The weather has been really nice for August, but we are due for a hot spell this week. We've actually been able to see the mountains pretty much all summer.

    I just got back from visiting my daughter in Carlsbad for a few days. It's so nice there. She lives three houses up from the beach. We rode bikes and BBQ'd. I will be in San Diego on Labor Day weekend and will think of you. Where did you live in SD? Job take you to Washington?

    Mar,
    I didn't even do chemo and am having the same effect. Don't know why. The other night I caught a pretty heavy buzz off of a glass and a half of wine. Could be that I hadn't eaten that much. Always have been a cheap date anyhow, too.

    I lived in Lomita Village. I was struggling with two kids from different marriages and didn't want to see them seperated if someh=thing happened to me. not the best area. so I sold a lot of my stuff put the rest in storage packed the car with the girls and what I thought I could get by on and left with @200 in my pocket for Seattle. My sister lived up here at the time at let me borrow her motorhome for two months until I found a job and saved enough to get into an apartment. Never lived in an apartment before that. about 9mo. later I met my husband and we've been together ever simce. that was 16 years ago.
    I've been home three times since.

    And I love them all, they are what I fight this battle for
