For those starting chemo in June

Hey girls, boy did I wake up early today. Hey P.J. we do want to get to Az. this winter but don't know when since hubby has to have surgery Nov. 27th. then P.T. for 6 wks. They have lots of craft shows in winter because it is so nice there. They get booked up long in advance though so I need to see whats up down there. Theres no way I want to pull a camper through the mountains in snow. I said something about going down and flying back for surgery but we would have to be here for almost 2 months so I don't know what we are doing. The spine Dr. told hubby he shouldn't be working so I guess we have to get into something there. He really struggles to woodwork. He doesn't do any lifting because he makes small things like clocks , wall hangings etc. but I think just using his arms hurts. That will really depress him if he can't do his wood. He has to do it a while then rest etc. so if he can continue to do that he will be o.k. My son is doing pretty good but his left arm will always be weak and not like it should so he is kinda depressed over that. He will be in P.T. for about 6 months. N.L. I got to that site. I am getting use to this one but hate to log on all the time too. I guess I just don't like change, especially when I am comfortable with something. Janie, does it feel like home and are you all straightened around? P.J. make it easy on yourself and just buy the ipod. His big ol smile will make the purchase feel worth it. Bite the bullet. Hugs girls, Mary

  Hey all,

Mary the techs can do that at work.  They are in their own place "fixin" my computer.  Sometimes they have to actually come over, but lots of times it can be done that way.  Not real happy about them being able to go in and see what I am typing at any given time -- why I never type anything I don't want seen..... can't say anything about anybody or anything!!!  What's  a girl to do?  Big brother is watching and all that stuff.

How is everybody feeling?  It is now in the upper 80's here and my last electric bill reflects that.

Later gators,

Janie

Good for you P.J. now I hope you got one you like because you may be using it in a few months, you will hate ot see it sitting around after what you spent on it and the downloads and the trouble downloading. Hey, we all wanted the neat stuff too. Good Luck. Have a good sleep girls. Hugs, Mary

You are right N.L. because when I call my cable co. they don't speak much English. Dell has always transfered the calls to India. I ask where about in India they are, what the weathers like and they tell me how beautiful it is there and ask me about the U.S. and how expensive it is to come here because of the money change. They are all saving to come here and visit. Once I got rerouted somewhere down S. America I think it was. Well P.J. I had 3 grandkids get I-Pods for x-mas and they used them about 3 months. They probably still do some times. We are leaving at 5a.m. so I have to get to sleep. Have a great wk. end girls. Janie I hope you are all settled in. I will write if my motel has internet. God only knows at some of these places. Later girls, Get well N.L. Hugs girls, Mary

Hey, NL, I know what you mean about seeing Shelli's post every time I log on. It's a sad jolt each time.



Glad you're feeling better. Hope you really do feel well enough to work, but be kind to yourself and don't overdo it!



Janie, you watching football this weekend? Hope Mary's selling a ton of stuff.



Not much up here. It's HOT! Dinner at mom's and then Nathan and I will make some more headway in reading the last Harry together. (My third time through it.)



Later girls

Hey girls,  I started to post earlier and the log in prompt popped up and I was too lazy to fool with it.

PJ I did watch some football this weekend.  Many of the top ranked teams lost and shook up the whole works.

Mary, don't feel bad, my internet at home has been out.  I used the old standby, dial-up.  Living out here in the boonies does have its ups and downs.

Hope you sell lots of stuff.  Maybe I had better go to bed since I have to get up soon. lol.

Later Ladies,

Janie

Mary,  leave the little Mexican with a pitcher of margaritas and some tacos so she can have a good time while you all are gone.

You sure do catch every bug that comes along.  Get better soon, ok?

NL are you better yet?

Hey PJ.

J

PJ,  I pray that your Mom's results come back ok.  So sorry about your friend. 

It is sprinkling here and supposed to rain tomorrow with thunderstorms Friday.

Had a very long work day today so I may actually turn in before midnight.

Later,

JF

Hey Girls, I had to leave quickly the other eve and I never did get bac to my thread here. Sorry about the bad news P.J. and sending good vibes for mom's good results. Janie, hope you get some rest after the hectic day. We have to leave tomorrow about 11 a.m. Nancy, it is going to be in the high 80's here a little while longer, thank God! We are getting those damp cold Autumn mornings. Wow the spelling for Autumn just looks crazy, I must get the cobwebs out of my head. I had a sudden no idea how to spell that word. Gosh, its getting bad. I gotta get Have a great day girls, Mary

Janie, I have to keep a dictionary by my puter because when I remember what word I am looking for(well; when I think of a word close enough to what I want to say) I can't remember how to spell it. Sometimes it is the simplest word too. I am taking my laptop and I am putting it in the truck when I get done here so I don't forget it. Gotta get packed up so everyone have a great wk. end. We are getting 90's so it will be warm. Hugs, Mary

Hey Girls, whats up? We did so-so over the wk. end. This is a new craft spot so it takes a year or two for people to get used to it I guess, only us. They say people were making over a thousand dollars a day else where. We paid for our motel and food and thats about it(all of us at that spot did poorly). Oh well, this next wk. end will be better, I hope. Our temps. are dropping from 90 yesterday and 80's today then 62 tomorrow. That would feel like hot weather in the Spring but that will feel very cold in the fall after the warm weather. BURRRRR!  Well maybe we will do better next wk. end. We go back to the same place(no refunds so we have to). This is a scenic drive and since the weather has been warm the trees are not turning so that may be affecting attendance. Oh well, we will see what next wk. end brings. We had a lot of people but they didn't seem to be buying much. Hows everyones wk. end? I bet no matter how cold it feels here N.L. is colder. Who won the game Janie? How many times have you read Harry now Paula? Hows Mom doing? I better get. Later girls, Mary

Hey, Janie, I might need some kind of mental health referral after all that's been going on. My bro-in-law died Sunday of throat cancer after being cared for at home for about a month. Our other friend died the weekend before. Mom has her appt. tomorrow, and not only do they have the imaging scheduled, but a surgeon. So I guess they must think whatever it is is cancer. I think I have PTSD.



Anyway, glad you and Mary sound good. Hope NL is well and didn't catch pnuemonia. Again.
