    TGIF ladies. After not feeling so great this week, my breathing is FINALLY getting better. I don't feel quite so much that the elephant is sitting on my chest anymore. The Advair is doing it's thing. I plan to go to the gym today to do weights, nothing too cardio yet, but may swim tomorrow.

    I went to see my dermatologist today for a follow up on my basal cell removal last summer. All is good there and nothing that came up around this year's body scan.

    It is stormy and raining here again (surprise, surprise). The sun is out but there is also thunder. Sun + thunder equals= sunder!

    Glad to hear Chevy is back on the pole!

    I'm HERE! Damnit! And yes, that IS me!

    Just bummed about everything going on ..... Now my Brother is trying to deal with his 55 year old Son who is on life support, with pneumonia, who wants to kill himself, MAINLY because he has TRIED to kill himself all of his live with the drugs, alcohol and smoking! Stealing from his folks, his Sisters, and if it were up to me, I would have shot him after the 5th time he was arrested..... but oh well... He is trying to find a long-term mental health care close to them, if/when they can move his Son there....

    Uses his whole family! Gets disability because he doesn't have a brain, but he has to have "Payees" .... and even THEN he will drink it up or take whatever he can get his hands on, whether stealing or buying.

    My Brother DID say "enough" so many times.... But the kid keeps falling down, and his family always comes to his rescue....

    THAT, and worrying about Carol, and my own DD trying to deal with HER little shit of a son, who I love DEARLY, but love my Daughter to the end of the earth, and it hurts to hear her crying on the phone.... Not to mention the whole funeral thing.... And if I see one more flake of snow, I'm going to SCREAM!

    Other than what I just mentioned, everything is just fine! You guys make me laugh! Thank you for that! Yes Spookie.... You little brat! I've been working out in my gardens.... helps take my mind off of stuff..... Love you guys.....

    Aw Ms. Chevy, most of our headaches or heartaches come from those we love. I figured something was bothering you. That is a lot on your plate.

    Geezzz Chevy- (((((HUGS))))) You sound like you could use a big fat hug, a dose of drama reducer and a stiff drink - chocolate coke, sunshine, gardening and the end of winter. Wish I could send it to you. My life is positively boring compared to yours. Boring is good; I am not complaining. The most exciting thing to happen here is a Towhee took a long extra splashy bath in the bird bath and all of our peonies are opening - a zillion bees. SNORE... zzzzzz yep just spine tinglingly exciting!!! All poles here have hanging bskets and bird feeders.

    Glad folks are feeling better, breathing better, skin checks are good and healing up from surgeries... hope Patty dodged the bug and Blondie can see better. Morphine makes me puke so I feel for ya Blondie. Maybe they can come up with something different. Where's Sassafrass? Show us pictures of your latest thrifts. No more temps from Dunedin... no fair we are still chilly.

    I can HEAR you! Haaaaaaaaaaaaahahah! Man that drink looks good.... ! I'll have to try that.... thanks Loverly.... and yes those gloves.... It's just been like I'm HERE, seeing all this stuff going on, and I can't do anything about it.... you know what I mean?

    So I go out in the yard...Cloudy and rainy, and hail further North & East of here.... But I think I have my plants protected enough in case we get hail....

    Spookie, what mischief are you up to? If I lived where you do, we could ALL go walking down by the beach.... right? And have a picnic somewhere, and kick your Husband out of the house for awhile.... Don't tell him I said that....

    Jazzy & Loverly! You two make a good pair....! We have to keep this thread livened up... Did I spell that right?

    And ROSIE! Are we the only ones around?

    Loverly and I could be BFFs. I just feel it!

    Bonus afternoon with not one but TWO hail storms! I had to replace my roof in 2013 due to a bad hail storm that summer that screwed up everything around here. I have not seen this much rain here since the summer I moved here in 1996 when El Ninjo did a big dump like it is doing here right now.

    I gave up on going to the gym because it was hailing and now there won't be time, so there is always tomorrow. Meanwhile, I am going out to meet a friend for drinks. I have my priorities!

    I will have a drink for Chevy, or two.......

    The rain just skipped California and went straight to NM. We were suppose to get some yesterday.

    Smaaarty and Rose, tried the pillows and they ended up on the floors in the morning.

    Sounded like you found a good Vet, Rose Usually, the animal can tell too! You have peony in your garden? Nice.

    MS BLONDIE, JAZZY MAY BE RIGHT ABOUT THE MORPHINE CAUSING YOUR BLURRED VISION. I REMEMBER HAVING A HARD TIME FOCUSING AFTER I HAD SURGERY IN JANUARY AND I DID GET MIRPHINE AT THAT TIME. DURAGESIC CAN DO THAT TO YOU TOO.

    Mommy, are you under the weather?

    HI1, how is moving coming along? Good thing you will have the cruise to look forward to afterwards.

    Susan, which one are you in the picture?

    Ms Spookie, the gloves are not meant for Ms Chevy to use on you haha. They are for her to use on her nephew and grandson. Well, she might use it on you if you continue to taunt her with the Florida weather updates.

    Jazzy, behave yourself and hope you have fun

    Patty, u ok? No stomach bugs.

    Mag, you are back

    I am with you Chevy on cold. I am so cold I just can't stand it. Got a long sleeve shirt, fleece vest, thick fleece zip up jacket, under a blanket on the bed. I have enough fat why am I not warm? The space heater is on and the house is set for 70 degrees. Where is a freakin hot flash when you need one???? The one side effect I crave and NOPE DENIED! This is BS... Life is so unfair. My hands are cold and white... DH was like where ya going not watchin the news?? No gotta be one with the space heater. Whaaaahhh Somebody turn up the heat a little. pity party..

    Saw a little of the flooding in Texas and the South.. geez awful. Missed CA bummer, they need the rain. Hope you all have nice WARM weekend.

    Had a fun night out. Little socializing and little "marketing" too. Went to a local brewery that actually has good food. Lots of breweries all over the city now, but most of them just have awful food. Just a couple beers. No big drinking for me anymore.

    And the rain continues, another T-storm coming on. We are going to break some records here with rainfall this month.

    I'm back..............Hp came back from manufacture. They replaced the keyboard , fixed the audio(I hope), replaced a battery on something, and a few other things. It was still under the one year warranty. I figured make them fix it before warranty runs out.. But these new keys look mighty fragile and raised at the edges on a few. Hp is checking back in on Tuesday next. By that time I should know if anything is awry. 90 day warranty on repair.  Took about a half hour to get by the password, but got it done.

    Chevy, DGS is in trouble and DD is calling you?  Well maybe she's paying attention to what you said the last time.

    YES Rosie, I have something new. Jersey Swirl by L.G Wright. Lemonade picture and six glasses. The original mold was by Windsor in the late 1800's The mold was bought by Wright. There's no way to tell if this is the old or reproduction. The reproduction is from the early to mid 1900's. It's so cool. The intention was for a wedding gift ---not going to happen. Perfect for Sangria. I'll bring back pics. Glass just isn't made like the old days.

    Blondie did the vision thing start after the Morphine? Pretty sure you have lots of meds, could be a drug interaction or a direct side effect.

    Going to find some Jersey Swirl pics.

    Got the above for 40$ a steal........can I keep myself from now collecting other pieces? Here's the plates I located on line.

    Jersey swirl pattern pressed glass, 8 antique vintage glass dinner plates 

    Going to be tough to resist. Do I use the rational that I got the picture and glasses for cheap?

    WHAT are you guys doing with pillows? Yes YOU Smarty and Rosie! Is there something I missed and should know about?

    I forgot to say HEY Mags! Good you were here, if even for a brief instant!

    Spookers! Yes, we have to tease each other... just because we can.... Hah! Yes, it is 72 degrees right this minute where you are, and YOU are expecting lightning storms today AND tomorrow.... And your humidity is NOW 88% which means you are not only hot, but also damn HUMID.... It's like going into the shower, with only hot water on, door shut, and try and breathe! And no use in even TRYing to dry off... just go run around all over the house and neighborhood NAKED at a pretty good clip, and see if THAT dry's you off.... Can't happen.

    ROSIE! You are COLD? I know... Our bodies just can't adjust to whatever the hell is going on lately. That was funny... your "hot-flash" question!

    When I'm with DD, she all of a sudden starts looking for just SOMEthing to fan herself off with! Even her purse! I start blowing on her face.... And by the time we are done laughing, it is over! I remember my Avon lady used to say when they hit her at night, she would jump up, throw her clothes off, and lay on the floor... sweat pouring off her head....

    I just never really had a hot flash... I had "warm waves" when I was on Tamoxifen, but no freakin' flash.

    Oh? Jazzy is still getting rain... and we're NOT.

    Okay, and Blondie just wants to go to Florida... And remain there for eternity, sounds like! Yes... go stay with step-daughters.... take turns with them.... or they will drive you nuts...

    Better yet, try staying in some hotel somewhere, with handsome escorts and concierge's or whatever they are.... and meals brought to you on a tray with a rose in a vase.....!!! THAT will be your new hospice!

    Okay now Sass.... Yes... DD calls, but we are just not getting into heavy stuff... it hurts her to talk about it... so now I just listen... I can't do anything to help, just be there for her...

    GS isn't in trouble... but he is avoiding her... Has his own life.... works with his Brother, so that is the good part... But she just wants him to be the way he was... I don't know what the problem is, but I don't think I want to know.... either.

    So okay ..... got everybody covered... I don't know nothin' about morphine or drugs...

    Have a nice Saturday gals...! xoxoxo

    And yet again...........

    And Loverly needs RAIN! Can't believe how dry California is now! If we could just squeeze Ca. a little closer to those WET states, it would sure help!

    Blondie- I hope the doctors will let you get away to FL for a few weeks too. My guess is you will have to come off the morphine in order to be able to travel though. Will you fly or will they drive down? My hope is the later. Being by the ocean is so healing.

    Sassy- those plaques are nice!

    I am waking up to dark skies and sprinkles. Supposed to rain again today, then be nice for a few days, then rain again. I am going to start building the ark today.....
