HAPPY HALLOWEEN! Picassa made my picture "spookie".... Ha
-
Good morning, ladies. I read here every day but thought I'd speak to let you know I'm still here. Sorry about the difficult times some are having with their mothers. I'm am so fortunate to that my mother is in good health. We go out walking almost every day. She lives very close to me and helped a lot after my surgery.
-

ALL DRESSED UP FOR TRICK OR TREATS!
-
Ya'll are busy busy busy. Thanks for the tips on the foobs. I'm not feeling great as of last night, dizzy as all get out. not sure what is going on. be back later
-
Chevy,


you've way to much free time!
BBL
-
Chevy...I agree with Teka but I do enjoy your free time LOL.
-
*Good Morning Owlettes*

-
Chevy wise words! You are right but if there was something medically wrong it would be nice to intervene. Get rid of the things that are eating away at mental acuity - like UTIs and low thyroid, low B12, depression etc. Have a great day ya'll.
-

Does this remind you of anyone?
-
Chevy, I just watch and read from a distance but you're a hoot. Wish I had you for a friend in real life! Keep on keeping on...

-
OMG hahaha!! Chevy...that was the BEST!! -
I got mine from a local place. The gals there are super great and know me by name when I go there!
-
Sassy - I bet the $100 part is a thermostat. Bucky is being well bucky. Most of the ladies are in raging heat. The 2 littlest ones have annoying voices that sound like a baby screaming. Hilarious. Glad my neighbor doesn't care. Mr. Bucky looks like he's a lifer here. Unless something happens to either me or DH they will all live out their lives here. The 2 youngest does are runts and not breedable. Not sure we'll make 10 or 11 more years out here in the sticks. Most all would be long gone though.
2TA - yes on the rain. Supposedly our chances go way, way up next week. So at least now the skilled nursing site is where your dad is. Yes UTI's are notorious for causing change in mental status. So you hold her POA? And Rosie's right - does she had an advanced directive? Yes, you're still where you need to be. No harm in sending out feelers for a job but I would just hate it for you if the perfect one came along and you could not take it. Better IMO for what it's worth (2 cents maybe) to not know about that job until the time is right.
Chevy - I thought something was cray cray with my monitor. Teka's right - too much free time. Now go stand in the corner. Was that a Picassa project too?
Tang - was there a breast navigator at your hospital? Baylor All Saints and THR Harris Methodist both have mastectomy boutiques. Bet surely Medical City does and anything else big out there. I can't remember where you went. Maybe be proactive and look around on the net. Couldn't hurt if you knew what places are out there. But surely the 1st step is with your insurance co.
We are quiet tonight. Dinner time for everyone? World Series back on tonight plus local hockey Dallas Stars.
-
Chevy awesome
Hugs all around
-
-
It is 2:15 a.m. here and all is quiet on this board. I'm used to floating around and seeing some conversation!
-
I am here
-
Oh boy its gonna be a fun sunday at my house. Hubby's gotta do the prep for a colonoscopy!
-
Mema! That makes me so happy! Im just glad to be here, and able to post, and
just THINK of how it would be if these gals weren't HERE! I'd be outdoors,
walking around somewhere, probably in the alley, talking to myself...You ARE my friend... REALLY, kiddo! So good to see you here!
Tang, I just thought that picture was so funny! Those poor dogs were like
"OMD, she's going to do it again!"What's so FUNNY is, I used to have those panty-hose! Only mine had seams
in the back.. I was such a tramp!Yes Littlegoats, that was a Picassa project... Ha! I just HAD to do it...
You should see what I sent my Grandsons, both Daughter's and my SIL! It's just
so hard trying to stay normal.... and mundane.Teka.... beautiful picture! So that means I'll probably be going to bed
around 7? And up by 3? I blame my whole family for this.... Even my
Grand-parents, and my folks had this habit, of "Up with the Chickens." We had
no chickens... oh wait, yes they DID! It all started with the damn
Chickens!Mema, I see you had you had an Oncotype "6"! Mine was 19, but I read where
that was a "low intermediate" and I didn't do chemo... It was my choice... BUT
you had a mastectomy, so that made sure you had no more problems, right? And
you've been on Arimidex awhile? A LOT of women can TAKE it.... and do just
fine, other than their bones feeling like they can't move.... I couldn't take
Tamoxifen..Some people can, and some can't..... but I have put all that behind me,
and am now in my second half, and doing great.Mommy2! Did you hear about that new "thing" where you can get the same
results of a colonoscopy, by doing it yourself?It will probably take awhile, (like 15 years) but it would be so much
easier than drinking that OMGWHATTHEHELLISTHISSTUFF..... stuff!I never saw many men IN that place... Men just don't do certain things...
and that's ONE of them.They don't/won't wear hearing aids, go get a physical, do colonoscopies, or
take their meds. I think some are lacking a gene, that makes them want to be
pro-active in their health!And it's a darned good thing DH's pace-maker is on the INSIDE, and not on
the outside, or he would have that thing tuned up to where he would be running
circles around the neighborhood! He'd probably try and put a new engine in
it... and rev it up every morning to drive the neighbors crazy!They put one IN him, so he can't touch it... AND, he would give it a new
paint job every month! One time he painted our little Daughter's bike purple!
Just because he had this can of purple paint! She came in the house crying...
And I was ready to ... well.... you know!He has this paint obsession. No matter where it is, or what-color it was
before, he will paint it randomly with whatever color he has. He keeps his
garage stocked. He don't paint with a brush... not even in the house.... He
paints with cans!I have taken away his paint privileges... He can't come IN the house with
a can of paint.... But he has taken up using black magic markers on everything
he can. -
-
-
I sort of had to blackmail my hubby into doing the colonoscopy
(Yeah, i know, I'm so evil! lol) -
I just wish I could get DH to get a physical.....! Like every 20 years or so! He won't ever go, unless he thinks he is REALLY sick, or can't fix something, or like can't walk!
-
Morning Owletes, The ridiculous is continuing. The dishwasher is broke and leaking water, Dbf thinks it's a valve and some how related to the water heater. I broke the mouse, and then a flea jump on me.........I'm numb b/c the thyroid and adrenals are in a mess because of the clobetasol ..................going to find some Ativan. -
Oh geez sas!
-
*Good Morning Owlettes*

-
-
Sassy, you broke the mouse??

-
-
Hah! She broke the dish-washer, hot water tank, mouse, and has a flea..... And her day has just begun! You are like that little guy with a rain-cloud over his head!
Sorry sass... You should just go to bed, and stay there... and don't touch nothin'!
