It is just after four in the morning, when we got up and lit another fire.  (still cold and windy but, no rain)  The power is back on so, it looks like I join all of you on NYE for getting rid of this year.  I still think it would be fun to have our own AN glasses.  (they would have to be non-breakable the way we fall around)

 :P  It is nice to not have to hook-up to the generator to talk with you.

There is no more storms for a week but, 60 mp winds still going on. 

All of your drinks, sound festive!



HAPPY NEW YEAR TO US,  LOL

How about this one?

Let's give a cheer,
When midnight's here,
Or maybe even sooner.


All 'round the world,
A toast will be heard,
From folks with an AN tumor. ;D

 ???

It is getting close to one month tomorrow behind me, at the Stanford series.  I will have the five months left until the MRI, etc.

Oh, NYE.....OK, to make my NY resolutions.  That is tough........Christmas came and went as a surprise with the AN thing going on.  (now, NYE)

How about, I be a more gentle, reserved and quiet person like I was when I was young?   :P 

We are in this together........CHEERS, Palace

Hi There,
  You can add me on to the list as well. I had invasive surgery in march and gammaknife in june of this year.
  Weird to think that there are so many this year on this site, makes you wonder how many more there are who arent   even involved with this site.

Let the celebrations begin.... :D

I was awaken today by a phone call from a dear friend of mine in Sydney Australia, at the stroke of midnight local time... she was celebrating hearty and I was one of the first she wished a happy new year....so.... on global watch now....

To Chris, to Laz, to all of our AN friends in AUS and as of now, in Japan (all of my co-workers), HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

May the new year be filled with lots of love, GOOD HEALTH, joy and prosperity!  I raise my coffee mug (and Tim Tams for the Oz gang!) to those that ring in the new year as of this hour in celebration for a good new year!

HAPPY NEW EAR!  (new ear; lol)

Yes, less tumor and more humor in 2007; you are so right, Bev!

We are going to try and hike the dogs up to the dam behind the house.  The high up trail narrows to about 1.5 feet.  I hope I have enough energy and balance to do this.  We promised the babies a NYE hike for them.  It is cold and drizzle.  (the drizzle is letting up)  I have to put the Frontline stickers and the Heartworm stickers on the whole calendar for 07' when we return. 

I think I will make that "Unblended Scotch" with soda upon the return from the hike if I make it.  I went up there once and was so tired I felt like someone should carry me back on a stretcher.  It is beautiful if you go all the way to the falls.  I was always wondering why people older than me would "buzz" up to the falls and I'd drag myself with agonizing pain and exhaustion. 

Today is the big toast-out.  I pledge myself a donation to the AN organization if I can make it up there and back.  (a few miles)  I hope I don't ruin my day but, I'm going to try this for the dogs.  If I make it, let the party begin.....here at noon.......DVD's,  (musical concerts) movies, the food, dogs getting a special chicken holiday meal, relaxing.........I hope!

Stay tuned for the saga and I hope the elevation doesn't set off my ear again. 

The allergies to the molds and redwoods are bad but heck, I have that in my own backyard.



I'm leaving...........HAPPY NEW EAR,

Hi All.....


We are back, it began to rain again.  We walked up the little hill by the cemetery.  (lots of history in there for this little town and pretty)  I'm glad we didn't go.  I was dreading it as, I'm tired enough.  It is so cold and dark, too.  (chill to the bone, cold)  I will try to hike maybe on a nice "late spring" day.  (warmer, anyway)  I hope some of my energy returns. 

It is a couple more hours until noon here and our festive eating.  (and maybe a drink)  I will be in bed early and won't last for the late-night group and to see the new year in.  This is good enough for me........

Oh, how about going in the hot-tub and if you don't have one or live in So. CA. (and it is too hot of a day, anyway) take a tub soak to relax.  I hope you have a tub besides a shower.   :D 

Enjoy your last day of the year, journey!  Make it a special day, somehow.

My best to all of you and HAPPY NEW YEAR! ;)
