I'm ok, thanks Jazzy. But I may have found Cami's computer problem...
It's a catastrophe!

Mags- the kittens came to help when they heard a mouse may be involved. LOL! That is so cute!
-
Sorry. Couldn't help myself.

Today's talk from Joan Lunden on the Today Show:
-
Jazzy,
my cancer was well past the surgeon being able to do just a lumpectomy. I have been seeing my oncologist every 3 weeks because of being on targeted therapy. no hormone therapy
-
Mommy- glad you are getting some longer term targeted therapy and have your MO seeing you often. It is good to be followed by someone for the longer term.
-
Yeah, even though I am hoping that there will be an end or a longer break from the targeted therapy soon.

thanks Jazzy I will watch it, I would have gone if I lived closer....we shall see how this one works out, usually don't like them, they talk alot of nothing..love the pix mags...
I know Jazzy, there is a bus but it would take about 3 hours to get to work from here. He yells at me all the time, "the girl" who has been taking him is taking him again, not me...
thanks for caring.

Hi hermits- fun class tonight in strategic planning. We have two MBA program instructors that alternate so that keeps it interesting. We did some class exercises tonight which helped me to get to know a couple of my classmates. This is a short class, only 6 weeks so not that much time to get to know folks.
The weather channel is saying we are getting a cold front that may bring us a hard freeze tomorrow night. That is a few weeks early than we normally see, so I must be sure to bring in the house plants and try to cover some of the rest. I will be sad to see my gardens go to sleep for the winter, they have been so nice this year!
Blondie- let the girl take him. No more Driving Mr. Daisy.....
Got a meeting in the am and lots of other stuff to do so off to bed shortly. Hope all my hermits had an okay day and will rest well tonight.
-
Hi hermits! Well, made it past Hump Day. I go tomorrow for my mammogram - 1st one since dx last year. I'm not really nervous or anything, but it's bringing back lots of memories of stuff I'd rather forget. Here's hoping for the best tomorrow! Take care everyone.
-
Well today is going to be a light day of housework and putting together the Halloween project I started last year!
-
started my campaign to get proper treatment and free recon, came home in tears again, I hate seeing my name against the words MASTECTOMIZED in capital letters on all their systems, maybe I am just too sensitive
-
Hi Ladies=-==puter is screwed up but had to say hello and good luck on anyone who's havingtests
Lily I'm sorry, the first thing I said to my BS was he left me Breastless but that meant he helped me as much as he could. I do see how very traumatic this is for you and I do hope u can get past the stigma of no breasts. I don't think of it that way I just figure it was time. I wish u could see it differently and maybe u will.
Ladies have a good day. Dr stuff today.
-
Lili- I am glad you are advocating for yourself. It what we must do, but won't say it is easy to do either. I had to do it during treatment myself, and it is exhausting. And I would say you are just not recovered from anything physically or emotionally, because your still in it. I hope your day today is better and keep us posted on what you hear back. Wishing you better days and relief from all this.
Cami- good luck at the doctors, hope everything is okay with your visit and any tests!
Monis- fingers crossed on clear films today!
I have a meeting this morning, then have to stop by the client site to do a few things to be ready for next week. Trying to finish our contracting stuff by tomorrow but have some obstacles to work through today.
Have a good thursday everyone!

I just got home from taking Rose to the groomer. She's been going to PetSmart for grooming since she was a puppy, and this is her first groom since my dx, and boy was she ever a mess! A ragmop! But she enjoys a spa day, always gets A+ on behaving! and feels so much better after. This is what she'll look like in a few hours:
-
*cutie pie*
-
That reminds me that my Sheltie is due for a trip to the groomers. Hubby usually sets up the appointments for that. My furbaby is such a good boy for the gal at the groomers who is the only one who takes care of him when he is there. He's been going there since he was a puppy and always looks great! They usually send him home with a little bandana. I've saved every one of them that he has gotten!
-
Mags, Rose is so cute!
-
Mags- that dog is adorable! Spa day for the pup. Maybe a spa day for you down the road (I went to one after my rads and it was oh so nice....)
How is everybody doing here?
Crazy busy day today. Went to the client site to prepare to go in next week. Greeted warmly by those in the area of the organization I have worked with and where I feel appreciated. I look forward to going back to work and making some money!
Got thinking today too that I am going to run into some of the unsavory people I dealt with on that last project as I return. Fortunately, I won't be working with them again on this short gig. My goal is to be professional but keep them far, FAR away otherwise. I live by the expression, once someone shows you who they are, believe it.

Just relaxing now. Probably will do some reading a little later before the Packers-Vikings game. So torn over this one because I root for both except when they play each other, then its Packers all the way! Looking for a few Lambeau Leaps tonight since they are playing in the Packers stadium!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Guess what starts this weekend? Traffic was oh so bad this morning too!

I think Jazzy, any other thread member gone up up up in a hot air balloon?
-
Teka- I have never been up in one, only a helicopter ride in Hawaii last year. Balloons are too risky for this girl who struggles with fear of heights. But yes, who has taken a ride?
-
-
Teka- for you. From Supermoons to lunar eclipse this month......
I have seen one of these blood moons before out here in the west. They are very cool!
