TIME TO CIRCLE THE WAGONS GIRLS

Wishing all my sister a great Sunday

I have just posted the same on the hamptons, Although I have read all of your posts it still feels like I am cheating using copy/paste, but wanted to say hello to my sisters before I go to bed.

Had a nice and relaxing Sunday today, the weather was not the best so stayed inside most of the day and just relaxed. Nothing very much on the cards tomorrow but have a Doctors appointment on Tuesday to get the results of the tests I had last week

I would just like to thank you all for the very positive and supportive comments made about the post I made in answer to Shokk. I did not mean to write as much as I did as I am sure you have all heard it before, but your kind words were very much appreciated.................

 CherylnC glad you are feeling better and hope you have a nice and relaxing Sunday.

Candie, thanks for your pm and glad things have settled down for you. I will let you know the results when I find out on Tuesday. Hope you enjoy your Sunday.

Donna Hope you have an enjoyable time away over the weekend.

Jasmine wishing you the best for the weekend

Vickie, Wishing you all the best with Sunday School today, know your plans will work out fine, really enjoyed chatting to you last night sweet friend and seeing that fantastic photo you posted of yourself on the party thread, have a great Sunday, and watch out for them mean censors on myspace .

Margaret your posts are so informative for me had to look up what mojitos are and then what kind of drink a cosmo is. Not sure about the mojito as I get a headache from white rum, but will give them both a test during summer. Hope the ant problem clears up and things get back to normal around you home.

Denise, that was so funny about the mini dumpster, can relate to how you must have been feeling as tossed my keys in one once and they sank towards the bottom, hope your Sunday is more relaxing mate.

Madison Glad to hear your baby is on the road to recovery, but you can keep the vets bills, and just want to let you know how much your work on the afghans is appreciated.

Bren Enjoy reading all your posts, you have a way of saying things that are so true but still make me smile. Thanks for working on a spreadsheet, will definitely make things so much easier. Afraid I am not very inventive as far as my screen name goes, "Peter" is the same as my real name on both sites.

Cherryl I am guessing the Cubbies are your team who won and play baseball? Hope you got to have another wonderful Saturday night dinner mate

Nicki Halloween must be a big celebration from the sound of it, not as big down under, do you get a holiday over there for it?

Madison "You Honk..We Drink" might have to look further into that, sounds like a great idea, we are now enjoying our mild spring weather, and summer commences on 1st December.

Brenda you can only do your best, which is what I am sure you are doing, very sad when family members vent their uncalled for anger at another. Praying that things start to settle down for you my friend.

NancyLee, hope you are feeling stronger today and are able to get some sleep.

Charlene, hope you are not too sore mate, and that Audrey saves her best for when you are able to see her next soccer game.

Trish It sounds so peaceful, watching all the little critters, thinking some of them might become dinner for that big crab you described. Hope you continue to enjoy your weekend.

Robin glad you were able to let us know what is happening, praying that the worst is over for you mate.

Deb C thanks for your kind words of support, I still get my days mixed up with your time, Hope your daughter Katie has/had a great party and you all enjoy/enjoyed yourselves at the skating rink.

Susan keeping your family in my prayers over the loss of your aunt.

Gus sorry you do not get the time to post as much, but glad to hear the good news about Alex.

BMD Glad you had a good day yesterday and enjoyed the movie. and hope your Sunday runs smoothly mate.

CY hope you are resting comfortably, and that you continue to improve and can enjoy your Sunday

Charlene thanks for posting the "My Angel" words

SoCal look forward to seeing the pictures you post, they give me great pleasure every time I come across them, hope you are enjoying your weekend.

CherylG wishing you the best of weekends my friend

Zazette glad you were able to pop in and say hello, only wish we could read more from you. I pray that all is well and you are relaxing over this weekend.

Biker/Jan looks like you are having a big weekend, hope you enjoy everything that is planned.

Doreen, Jenni hope you are having relaxing weekends

Bren Happy belated birthday for last week mate.

Blue enjoyed the jokes you posted gave me many smiles

Karen, hope I have not missed your post as I always enjoy reading them, wishing you a wonderful weekend.

Shokk thanks again mate for inviting me to answer your question, had not intended to reply with my history, but thought it was the best way to provide a reason for my answer. Know we do not get a chance to enjoy your posts on the weekend, so hoping you had a good one and wishing you all the best for the rest of the week.

Carynn another refreshing story, glad it turned out so well and you made some new friends. Mate never feel like you have to catch up, things move so fast here some days its, well impossible, just good to know your here and we get to enjoy reading your posts.

Gina you continue to amaze, still making so many improvements to the site, and showing so much care for others even though you have another big week yourself coming up, wishing you all the best and keeping you in my prayers.

Shirley have already said welcome home,but would just like to say we all missed you mate, your great sense of humor is back with us to enjoy, hope you got to have a good comfortable sleep last night

Sue keeping Adele in my thoughts and prayers

Sheri congratulations in getting the part in the play, and hope that your appointments go well next week

Nicki, you sure do know how to wind down and relax at the weekend, wish you would pass on a few tips to your sunshine sister Vickie

Odalys thanks for starting the party rolling last night, sorry I did not join in very much, but my old computer had trouble loading the pages on the bco site. I am still wondering what you found for me in that picture that did not come out.

Wild/Jan Your son has had an amazing journey to get where he wanted to go with the Marines, and you must be one of the proudest of moms with what he has achieved.

Liz passing on my thanks to you again for the work you are putting in to set up the Christmas Card List, will be looking around during the week for some great cards to send to my sisters.

Amy keeping you in my thoughts and prayers, hope everything went well for you.

Pam sweet sister, I think you said you were having some computer problems, miss your kind words you always have to share. Bet your song was great last night, hope you enjoyed the occasion and get a chance to sit back and relax today.

Jankay, looking forward to catching up with you again this week and laughing at some more of your jokes. Vickie said she has been lonely in the showers lately.

Any sisters from Amy to Z sorry if I have missed you, but want you to know I am always thinking of you.

Peter

Good Morning Everyone.  I thought I'd start over here today at the "mothership" since I can't seem to keep up with all the boards I'm on!  I'm missing some of you that don't go to the Hamptons.  Some of you I see everywhere though which is cool. 

Jazz ... I Love seeing you posting more.  My fill pain is Very gradually easing but I'm still very sore.  I can hold Ava again though which is telling.

Cheri ... I'm glad you got the picture posting down.  I haven't checked my email yet today because I'm using Karl's computer.  I'll do that as soon as I can to see how you're doing with your avatar.  My PC is in the bedroom and Karl is sleeping .. I don't want to wake him up.  The cabana was a blast yesterday ... it was almost like we were in a chat room it was moving so fast!  Too fun!    I hope your leg swelling has gone down.

Donna ... Nice to see you pop in.

CherylnC ... Glad your labs came back fine.  Our meds can really mess with our levels.  I'm happy that you like the Angels I post!  I'm sure you're going to enjoy that well deserved trip.  You have been through so much.  I know that's an understatement too.

Jan ... Always good seeing you

BooSue ...  Glad you had a great time at the conference.  Is there a story behind your name (Boo)?  I always love a good story.  I'm hoping Adele is doing as well as can be.

Marsha ... I hope you have a nice relaxing day today.  You're too funny!

Odalys ... I'm doing better each day.  My girls are doing great although Ava is showing terrible two behavior and lack of mother attention  lol  Hoping to rein that in somewhat as I get better.  Audrey is doing Great with her new teacher.  She likes her ... says she's strict but only when she has to be.  She's bringing home A+'s all the time and enjoying school.  How is Steven doing?  Is he in fourth grade this year?  It was nice to be back on the party thread again.

Candie ... Audrey has suffered eczema since she was a baby.  Sometimes it's really bad.  The cortisone-steroid cream should help.  One thing to help prevent flare ups after you get through this bout is to make sure you moisturize well every day.  Eucerin Calming Cream is great to use for itching.
Audrey is great ... the swelling and black eye didn't last very long.  The icing all night when she got it helped that.  My boobies are hard and sore, but more bearable now.

CY ... I am feeling better thank you for asking.  So glad you are getting some rest.
That was nice of you to invite Medical418 to the circle.  She's in a bad spot and could use our support.  I hope she comes over.

Susan ... I'm sorry to hear about your Aunt.  My thoughts are with you and your family.

Nicki and Peter ... hello to you

Okay I think I'm caught up here, I hope I didn't miss anyone.  Thinking of everyone and hoping you all have a wonderful Sunday!

Hugs and Love

Charlene

Cherylnc>your trip should really do wonders for you! DH and I managed to do two vacations this year thanks to his bonus check. We normally take a vacation about once every 5 years. First one was a motorcycle/trike trip to Illinois from Oklahoma through Missouri for a mini family reunion at my Mom's 80th birthday party, we then drove across Iowa and Nebraska to spend 5 days in Colorado at a motorcycle event. Over 3,000 miles on a trike we just got 3 days before the trip! 

  Sorry  haven't written much here lately but once I post in the Hamptons I don't want to repeat myself here and bore y'all since I am doing some long posts lately.  

Then we did a trip to San Diego by plane to see our Marine son. It was my first time ever in California.  I wore my arm sleeve for the first time as they told me its a preventive method since there is no cure for lymphedema.

Good afternoon Circle. My, I got a little behind and there are several posts. I try to post two to both bc boards but sometimes just get one in. Feeling pretty good today. Walking around gently with my cane. Yes it does hurt. LOL No pain no gain. Man am I sick of that phrase! The grandsons both got home today at noon and Amber and her bf are renting a video game, getting pizza and going to watch the football game. They were going to take the boys somewhere but Ethan just wanted to stay home.

CY, you're home! I am so glad. Sorry about my phone breaking up and then when I called back you didn't answer. Always have you in my prayers. You are such a good person, from the heart with no other agenda. That is why I like you so much. You are genuine.

Suzola, so sorry to hear about your aunt. Give me a call when you get home so I'll know you're alright.

Margaret, good idea about posting here first. I usually always do that because there's less traffic here.

Candie, so glad you found out your rash is nothing real serious and you got some medicine for it.

Boo, don't have to call you Boo-Who when you hang around, silly. lol

Cherylnc, so happy you are feeling better. Got to get well for your fabulous trip. My leg is better today, thank you.

Nicki, loved the pic you posted this morning. lol So true.

Charlene, we did have fun yesterday didn't we? lol I really enjoyed it. Thanks to you and Odalys for teaching me how to post pics here.

WildJan, are you from OK? If so that makes us neighbors cos I'm from MO.

Choca, glad your mammo was good and my leg is doing well today, thank you.

Wishing everyone a very pleasant Sunday.

Elaine, can't wait to see the pictures on the Get Together thread.  Congrats on the follow up.  I hate laundry - I swear mine reproduces.

Gina, thinking of you as you take the xeloda.

Cheryl, I will dig out some fabric softener sheets then too.  With the Terro and fabric softener, I should have them wiped out.  At least I didn't get them in the freezer like my girlfriend did.

Cheri, I remember how much of a lifesaver this site was for me when first diagnosed  and as the wagon circle grew, I spent more time there and less on threads like Just Diagnosed.  I think Gina mentioned something about checking in there and I realized she was right.  So I check bco first now before going to the Hamptons.

It's amazing how much you get done when you get up early.  I went to Starbucks, the farmer's market, breakfast, Costco, have done three loads of laundry, made up the beds in the guest room (still can't believe I finally have one of those after 22 years in this house), got dinner ready for tonight, and just had lunch.  Pretty productive I'd say.

Margaret

Welcome home Choca.

liz ............. i'm on the list from last year right?

it was the nicest thing i've participated in for a long time.

please count me in again and send me the updated list (at 'home' if you can)  i don't come here too often anymore but i still check my email everyday because i'm working on a job in Isla Morada  ........... shelatk@cogeco.ca ....... if you can't then send it here and i'll try to remember to look more often.   btw, sorry about your headache ........ myself my ribs are killing me from this horrible cough i have.

"hi" to everybody ........... i think of you all daily.

Ok.: where or what is the Hamptons? I obviously missed something important!

Shirley: so good to see you here again. How are you doing? Have you settled back in to "normal" life after your visit to FL?

Shel38: I can surely relate with those darned painful ribs! Mine are just starting to feel better - after many months. Hope you feel better soon.

Liz: Sorry to hear you are not feeling good today. Take a cool cloth, put it on your forehead and lie down in a dark room. Hope you feel better tomorrow!

Odalys: sorry I missed the Luau. Maybe next time !

Wishing everyone a good night and a great start to the week!

Hugs and chocolate xxxx

Elaine 

Choca, indeed I am. Just got home from my spending a week at my daughters. Either rebroke or broke another rib while I was there. Which means I have happy drugs which makes me happy.

All is good.

Is your cough all gone?

Where do I find that survivor post that some of you have been talking about? I would like to read it too.  Thanks

Candie sounds like you had a great weekend my friend, wishing  many sweet dreams. This is the link to the post you were after.

Take care

Peter 

I'm just so tired tonight so I'm just going to pop on and wish everybody a pleasant night and restful sleep. 

Marsha ... Will be with you tomorrow.  Thinking of you.

Cheri ... I'll be waiting for you and the magic carpet to pick me up!

Love & Hugs to all from A - Z

Charlene

Charlene, yes the Magic Carpet will be by to pick everyone up for Marshas surgery. Better use the bubble wrap. hahahaha

Liz, hoping your terrible headache is gone and you are back to normal. Hi Shel. Margaret,Lini, Sherloc, Neesie, and BMD.

Morning all, just checking in to see who is checking in.  BIL has surgery today on his brain tumor.  Marsha, good luck today, I will be thinking about you.

Cheri, I bet you missed driving the magic carpet the last few months.  I'll make sure I'm on the next ride.

Morning Nicki, hope the commute is not too bad with the rain.

Going to check the Hamptons.

Margaret
