hi everyone

hi everyone, just like to apologize if anyone sent me messages that i didnt answer, i have been off line for a couple of days, i found a lump on my opposite breast, and had to have a mammo and ultrasound, but ALL GOOD, but as you all know, the feel of a lump was enough to send me into a tizzy, i have found out i have an anurysm on the brain, so off to adelaide next week for an cerebral angiogram and see a neurosurgeon, i would say bummer, but they found it, on my yearly check up for bc, and i mentioned headaches thinking they could be a side effect of arimidex, so was sent for a ct scan, so i could say i am lucky, if i hadnt had bc i wouldnt have known i had it,, i am also going great guns organising my mini field of women,i live in a small rural town, and i got 50 businesses in town to pink up their premises (didnt think we had 50 businesses), and we are having a pink night on the 29th, and already have 150 women wanting to come, so organising lots of games and laughs, will post some pics after the event. So Everyone stay well, and keep happy

  • Holiday was lovely and very restful. I even made a garden! :)   Yes, do point people to me if they can't work something out, but by all means you're very welcome to give the answer if you know it. 

    I would *so* love to see your hubby in a tutu, sounds like a sight not to be missed!   Do post some photos for us all to laugh at ... err, I mean, admire. :)

  • Hi there Di, hope you had a great holiday ... did you miss us all ???!!!!

    Moira, I'm so glad things are fine with your new "lumpy bits", and good luck with your 2nd trip to Adelaide during the week.  Lets hope the "powers that be" are communicating with each other this time and someone will have a clue as to why you are there.

    I was suffering with dizzy spells and headaches a couple of months ago so was taken off arimidex for a month while I had cat scans etc to make sure they weren't side effects of the "pill".  went back to the oncologist and he was quite please to tell me there was nothing there.  I did think for one minute that he meant he couldn't find the brain, but no it's there and got the pics to prove it.  The dizzy bits and aches were a middle ear infection so that was a relief ... now I'm back on the pill!!

    Have just about finished pinking up Wentworth, just have to deliver a couple more decoration packs tomorrow and finish the club - then the town is done.  Have got merchandise in three outlets, and will have an info stand and sell mor on Breast Cancer Day on 25th Oct.

    My pub is having a big fundraiser on Fri 29th Oct .... raffles, pizzas, $1 donation off each drink, live band etc etc and everyone going pink - even the guys!!!!  Terry is going to spray his hair and beard pink and the publicans' son is thinking about pink body paint!!!

    The mini-Field of Women is set down for Sunday 31st on the banks of the Darling River, live music and hopefully releasing lots of balloons during the afternoon.... just a relaxing peaceful couple of hours (I think that's what it's supposed to be, never having been to one before)

    I've also written to our club to see if their anual Melb Cub Ladies afternoon could change to a Pink ladies afternoon. .... the jury's still out on that one!!!

    Have been approached for next year .... there is a tractor rally in June and someone has offered to paint his tractor pink if I can get a team of ladies to drive it .... how about it girls?? .....also the golf club want to have a benefit day next October.

    Mission for Di !!!

    Now you are back and fully rested, here's a thought.  How about a photo album page (a la facebook) where we could share photos and show everyone what we are doing?  Just a thought!!!  I tried the insert /edit image bit in this comment section but couldn't get it to work - all I could get were little boxes with x's in them

    Cheers .... Shirl

     

  • Yes i'm all good, hope you had a great holiday, i think the ladies on here are starting to think i'm the administrator on here lol, i have just pointed Lyn11 to you she is trying to create a group, but lost it, i did ask if she had previewed it first, but she didnt know, so was going to try again. also brissielynn (too many Lynn's lol), said she changed her status to show contacts only, but when she done a search without being logged in it showed her blog?? I'm enjoying doing the field of women thing, and have had a great response from the community, my husband and a couple of other guys are even dressing up in pink tutu's to be auctioned off on the pink night and believe me not one of them has a tutu body lol. will post photos should be fun

  • So glad to hear about your 'all good', that's great news. And I bet you're glad to find out what's been causing your headaches. Go you with the mini-field (don't forget to put your feet up and take some time for yourself, too! ;).

  • thank you all for your support, it is sooooo good to know others are there, but as my comment above, so glass half full here, if i didnt have bc i might never have found it, and then i might just not have woke up... i like my bed but not that much lol.... take care and thanks i will keep you all posted. X

  • How wonderful we are doing our mini-field on the same day.Will be thinking of you big time. xxxx  kaz
