OMD you found the post. what did you go back a thousand or 2,000 pages. Okay what was up did you just want to know the name?
Oh we are only on page 1439..........
I found this at the SPCA, a two handled plate, footed, with silver overlay, the overlay isn't exact, but it is close. I paid a dollar I think.
Silver overlay was gorgeous and in that time period the best were made with Rhodium. It didn't tarnish.

To WREN, SHEP, MAMMARAY - HAPPY BIRTHDAY LADIES. (It is my DD's 12th b'day today so I guess you are all scorpio girls.)
-
Yep, I have no luck on getting good neighbors. Today I was planning on making and freezing the rolls for Thanksgiving.
My birthday is coming up fast, like 3 days after Thanksgiving. I'm a Sagittarius!

Sensi, I missed you when you popped in, Lokking good girl. So much hair
Sweetie Chance looks good too!
Mommie, what kind of rolls. I made a spinach salad with warm bacon fat/ red wine vinegar/sugar/Dijon mustard dressing. Nice
-
Just plain white yeast rolls with a little bit of cinnamon. I use my bread maker to make the dough and finish them off in the oven.
-
Yum, rolls. It is nearing Holiday. Will have Hubby make the f'ed up turkey again if he han replicate it. This time, beginning later in the morning. Best turkey ever.

Hate to post sadness but I thought I should share......
Stagefree - Ebru passed away November 6th. Her husband started a thread: Stagefree's last journey
Very unexpected, don't know what happened. She seemed such a glamorous lady, even when she was feeling cruddy . Very kind and wise......
This cancer chit makes no sense at all.
So, I gonna yell as LOUD as I can........
I LOVE YOU MY SISTERS!!!!!!!
Sassy, spread your wings as wide as you can so all us little owelettes can snuggle in the nest with you and hide from the world. I'll bring my giant box of Whitmans Samplers. And Pris Kitty. Miss Blue, can you bring the f'd up turkey? And M0mmy bring your rolls? Comfort food and comfort friends - c'mon y'all!
-
Will bring those rolls, piping hot and with plenty of butter to spread on the

Hi All!
Glad I found INSOMNIACS. Its my new way of life - waking up at all hours of the morning. this is late for me. Was awake at 2:30 and 5:00.
Thanks for the company.

Shep, so sorry to hear of the loss of another wonderful soul. I remember her well from Rose Valley's tribute thread. Thank you for letting us know.

Shep so so sorry for our loss. We all love each other so. it's so hard when we loose one of us. Everyone come here and get under my wing and we can cuddle.

Working on CO2 laser assisted mastectomy thread. Everyone here has had the breast work done. But my goal is to find out why this is not a usual treatment modality. We on BCO have power. I want to push for research to get this to be a treatment modality. This is the note to those that have posted and or may be interested.
I put this on the Co2 laser assisted mastectomy thread today. Now sending it by PM. to those that posted and a few others. That may have some interest in being involved.
This is the link to the thread for those that haven't been there and may want to follow.

Making some progress, I have a plan.
I have an appointment on Tuesday at 12noon to talk with Dr. Anselli. RE: what has been discussed here YAY.
Prior to that I said I would post here and ask for folks to formulate questions for him. I then would send them prior to our conversation. Along with my question(s).
I will also, be sending him this link for his review and preparation for our phone call.
-
ShepK! Whitmans Samplers?! Girl, you are deprived. I will bring gumbo. Was thinking about red beans and rice, but if we are going to snuggle under Ms. Sassy wings.....it would be dangerous if we don't have access to Beano.
I remember Ebru from Rosevalley tribute thread too. Ebru was a beautiful lady with a beautiful soul. Great loss. Not fair.
BTW, LOVE you too.
Ms. Sas, you thrive on staying busy and keeping that brain of yours active. Bless you. Wish I have half of your active brain.
Feline, I love the scarecrow. We are living in a world of selfie or as DH pronounced it one time, "self fi"...as in wi-fi.
WELCOME JEENEE!!!!

Captured this yesterday on my way to work.
Each time I see a rainbow, I am reminded of God's love. Someday I will share my rainbow story. Thinking of you Mags as you are having the service for your Beloved this morning. Sending hugs from 1607.1 miles away.
-
Ms. Sas, about the glass angel....Iam not looking to have a pair. And don't be silly......how can I send her to the thrift store?
-
Bluebird, hope the mild antidepressant helps with the cough.
-
Welcome Jeenee, someone's here 24/7. we love new folks joining us. Don't let us overwhelm you and sure don't try to read back to catch up. We'd never see you again with 1400 some pages.
Loverly, Hahaha your right. Busy, busy ,busy. In the early 80's I went to a hypnotherapist b/c my busy mind worked in my sleep and all off hours. That was in the Paramedic education days. It was a very creative job and I got to do the creating. The hypnosis mostly worked, it wasn't perfect, but I was better.
Yes, you are correct no beans for this many people with out beano.
The rainbow is beautiful. I have to try and post the picture of the Rainbow after IRMA. It's on my neighbors phone. Someday.
-
well, Ativan used to work wonders enabling me beauty sleep every night.
I had total hyst done 11 days ago. Close to no issue but Insomnia came about BAM. Did not want to give up my uterus but it was either uterus now or uterus bomb as form of ovarian cancer in the near future since Mom had ovarian and BC. Thank god for b9 pathology report.
It must be all BC related TXs w other surgeries. I feel fatigued all the time starting a few days ago,. Right now I will take fatigue induced sleep to heal. I stilm have two more months of disability left.
DH started showing emotional and physical fatigue. I am worried,

Hi, Casti, glad you had those puppies out. But oh my yes, it can be a body surprise if they were still working. Even a little bit. Insomnia being one of the worst effects besides hot flashes and mood swings.
Someone's around here most times. It's fairly quiet on the weekend which actually is a good thing. It says folks are doing family and friend things. But doesn't mean people aren't watching. I used to come on when it was truly just a night thing and go YOooohoo any one there? Or even talk to myself? You can see posts like that before page 180. After page 180 it became a 24/7 thread. If you post in the middle of the night, someone will answer you the next day.
In the old days, I met many from Australia, New Zealand, and Auckland as that was their daytime. Long time they've had there own threads.
I will try and link to the Hot-flash forum. It's an inactive group. I was there in the early days. We did lot's of work on stuff related to hotflash' s first 30 some pages.
Ativan is a great drug. Minimal side effects. Rarely, very rarely addicting. Usual dose 1-2 mg. Myself I had to take 4 mg for sleep. I took it with Melatonin 10 mg. Usual dose 3-6 didn't cut it for me. But I posted a study a few pages ago that said it showed a benefit in ER+ BC and Met's at the 10-30mg level. Who knows may have been one of those inadvertent things as to why I didn't met's. (my numbers said I should have).
Anywhooses. Hope you come back, you will find a supportive community. But I encourage all new members to lurk and wander looking at threads to see what you think and where you feel comfortable setting down roots for a social group. Technical things can be handled, but there are so many technically specific threads. We talk technical stuff, but it's more social than technical. But we take care of each other.
BUT I'm a technical gal (old nurse) on some stuff. No clue about other stuff. Completely no knowledge about chemo drugs. I or others can, generally, get you off to the right technical thread.
Trust me finding a social thread can be more difficult than a technical thread. I may have dozen's of technical threads on my favs. I have one social thread.
Jeenee and Casti come back if you so wish you are quite welcome.
