Sure, but I'm having trouble getting the photo's off my camera. I don't have any of her in her purple princess bridesmaids dress, but in her second back up dress. I was giving her a bottle while the new bride was getting into her dress, and ms. prissy , who already had twelve ounces, peed through her diaper and on me.

I'm at my sister's and on my tablet, and don't know how to do anything but type, so this evening I'l do it when I get back home. Lily gave our new bride and groom,each, a hundred dollar bill to dance with them.

Hope you do know something about Huz's condition today, Niner!

Busy week ahead here. Walnuts are falling in huge amounts from the recent windy days. Ouch! Do we hurt from picking up...... 12 buckets and 10 bags filled in the past few days. Getting things put away for winter, appointments, paperwork..... work seems never ending.

Nore, I don't know how the "Book Club" works, and I don't know how to share a book purchased through an iPad.

Well, actually, there is NO new update on the Huz. The hematologist said he didn't take enough of his bone marrow to run a correct diagnosis; so, Larry will have to do this again. They'll be calling me with his appointment date. They will do it under an x-ray, so the radiologist can "see" where the needle is going and get a "good" sample of his bone marrow.
Got his blood tests back - the only things that were low were:

Red Blood cell count - expected values 4.20 - 6.30; Larry's was 3.54

Hemoglobin count - expected values 12.0 - 18.0; Larry's was 11.2

and

Hematocrit count (which is total blood volume that is composed of red blood cells - expected values 37.0 - 51.0, Larry's was 33.5

Everything else was normal and within expected values.

So, I wait until the doctor's nurse calls and gives me the appointment date for Larry's next bone marrow extraction.

Oh gosh - I remember when we lived in Novato and had TONS of walnut trees - YES! It hurts when the fall on your head! LOL!

No, the book-sharing club is only for actual books! :read: I've shared there quite a long time ago, and everyone is really nice about sharing their books! Otherwise, I don't think they would share their books, ya know?! Right now I'm reading all of Michael Connelly's books (Detective Harry Bosch series plus) from my library! Thank goodness they have all the copies! I did that with all of Kathy Reich's books (Bones) too! :waiting: for her next one now!

Okay - off to read my book :read:

Later folks! :seeya:
 
Niner, I am so sorry your Huz has to go through another bone marrow test. Wish you had your answers. :therethere:

Thanks for the info on the book club. I rarely buy books now, as they are difficult for me to read and hold. Darned eyes and arthritis.
 
Hello strangers!
I miss you all. I am still having problems with my sciatic nerve or something pinching on my nerve root, so I can't sit here very long. I am SOOO interested/involved in the Horrific murder of the beautiful Dr. Teresa Sievers case, that I spend all my "sittin down" allotted time over there. I've never seen so many Verified Insiders in a case in all my two and a half yrs. here. It's a bizarre case and once your hooked, you can't stay away.

I do love you guys and miss our little group. I will never catch up, so if anyone is feeling down or going through a rough patch I send my love and heartfelt hug. :hug:

I am heartened that he is not too much under the lows on those scores. Here's hoping that the next biopsy comes back with more reliable results... :)
 
Does anyone know who the mod is for this forum? Thanks!

Hi Niner, don't forget we have a book lending area "downstairs" :lol: after I read it I will share with sleuthers! I remember during Scott P.trial books were flying around! Its downstairs by Pet section and recipes..have a good one..

Oh good to know there is a book lending area. I am going to purchase the book but then wanted to share it with anyone!
 
It was AWESOME!!!!!!

Tomorrow I'll spill the beans.............
 
I'm in shock ... the pages are loading quickly tonight!

:great:
 
Woot, WOOT!!!!!

Zuri got PUBLISHED!!!! She got her pic in the Arabian Horse World Magazine, and I didn't even know it til I cracked it open this afternoon!!!!!

Ok, I'm still mentioned with 2nd married, previous membership, long gone last name....but they got Zuri's, Poquita's and everyone else's names right!
Ok, WS Aunties, your niece is FAMOUS!!!!!
Now where is our "human" Zuri, she needs to see this!!!:loveyou:

OMG!!! HOW FABULOUS IS THIS!!!!!! Congratulations on your beautiful filly, winning breeding program, and pedigree paperwork. And she was due when again? LOLOLOL

Sometimes nature just does amazing things all by herself. You must be so proud! Congrats!
 
Dr Oz for some reason creeps me out. Don't know why.

He is from Wilmington, Delaware believe it or not and his dad was one of my husband's attending physicians during residency. I thought the same thing too, but there is a lot of moneyed prep school by products here that dye their hair...
 
Niner, I am seriously concerned about your DH. Five units of PRBC's should have brought his counts up higher. And WTH with the bone marrow biopsy? Please make sure you keep VERY VERY good records of his care, appointments, results, instances like where the ball seems to have been dropped if you get my meaning. I have been thinking about you both and I certainly understand your frustration and his quite frankly. I think I would have dropped 100 F bombs by now even if I wasn't all jacked up on Prednisone. Hugs and jingles to you both!
 
Hi all, I think I am back! Finally starting to feel a bit better. I had breathing problems and ran low on inhalers Long story. as soon as I got them felt better, Dr.gave me different ones but they dont work as well. On the book club, don't remember all but I know we gave an address to mail book We never had a problem either. Niner you will be first -in line.--
 
I think I am caught up again. Bernina has gone on the lam, making it rich playing poker. Sciatica is still the bane of many an existence. Religion was heavily discussed which is a topic I don't tend to comment on as it is such a deeply personal one, but appreciated the viewpoints. Lilly was a purple vision at a wedding and she sure is cute. SC Has flooded for its role in taking the Confederate flag down and Joaquin was a no show. Witch Hazel is now on my list of added cleaners and I will empty all my K cups to make a coffee facial.

Sound about right? :)
 
I have been in Hoarder's Hell. Over the weekend, my entire basement and first floor were emptied, HEPA filters running, movers and cleaning crew here taking all the junk out of my basement I didn't know I still had. There were strollers and a high chair, a walker and my youngest is 22....

I hired a decorator/designer and my BFF to take charge. I now have lighting in my kitchen where I can actually see. They took away all my furniture except for several pieces so that I can re work my home. I come from a furniture dynasty in High Point, NC so you can imagine my apoplexy. So the decorator is a tyrant as she won't let me have my way and my BFF is a traitor because she agrees with her.

I happen to like chairs. All kinds of beautiful chairs. And I have been reduced to TWO in my family room. TWO. I used to have six. I think. It was kinda crowded in there so I may be off by one or two. But I am getting a new sofa and a swivel chair, new custom bookcases and fireplace wall when I have the million dollars to do it. I am excited about taking my house back before it took me. There were days when I have just figured I would die and they'd just throw me out back. Dust to dust.

I still can't breathe, taking a ton of Pred, tethered to an oxygen tank, but I am determined to try and get some strength back in my legs at least. I don't look at all like me which is the weirdest part.i am HUGE. I have no neck and slits for eyes. My eyebrows went all white and my hair fell out in chunks. But hey, I am still here. How blessed am I.

The wonderful messages of caring and support and well wishes have meant so very much. This apparently is going to be a very long recovery process and as the IGG transfusions are $10K a pop and from Spain, I may be posting in Spanish. I am hoping they can figure out from these upcoming lung biopsies what the heck is living in there and wash it out with witch hazel, bleach, coffee grounds, deodorant, Epsom salts and all of CJ's other tips and tricks. CURE!!!!
 
Zuri, I am in awe at your spunky determination! It is so good to have your wonderful sense of humor shining through all the chaos going on around you. My goodness, you have a busy life! Welcome back to the Sidebar!!

We have been in the process of eliminating a lot of extra clutter here, too. Getting rid of the "too many chairs and end tables" has made a big difference in the feel of the living room, and lessening of doodads sitting around has spruced up our attitudes. Less is more, my husband says. I may finally agree with him.

I too am decluttering, *packrat rehabilitation*. It's such a task. It feels like it will never end.
