Hiya guys-well--back from our great holiday-just got home and the first thing I did tonight was come see you guys!!!!!
You must excuse me for not readin all the topics in the last 4 weeks--hey guys-fair go--I'll read every one of them!
Just gunna take a while is all!
Great to hear Bert's colonoscopy(I call it anal invasion-he he!) has been blessed with good results Monika.
We really have been thinkin bout yu all guys--now we can get back to some serious discussion and hopefully I can gain some info on our new friends here that joined us while Jen n I were away.
Me?--well-healthwise , not too bad but as would be expected am glad to be home but VERY tired after 6,000 ks of travellin.The chemo residue knocked me about a fair bit so had to take it easy some days but nonetheless the holiday was great 4 both of us.

I have more tests coming on the 27th of April so not really lookin fward to that but--ah guess if ah must --ah must--grrrrr!
I'm gunna check out all the posts left here( for the past 4 weeks) in the next coupla days so you all be waiting to hear from me.

GREAT TO BE BACK!---
Our luv to all and be as well as can be expected!

    You really hit the ground running, Kanga. Logging on the second you get in the house and replying to everyone. Welcome back. We missed you.
    SpongeBob is entirely too serious these days. Maybe it's the pressure of running his little navy. I tried to take up the slack but really need someone to bounce up against--laughwise, that is.
    Aspaysia, who can't wait to trade quips with a worthy adversary. Get some rest.

    Hi Kanga! Glad to hear you had a wonderful trip. You and Jen absolutely deserved to get away. I surely missed your words of wisdom and especially your humor.
    I'm sure you'll do fine with your tests on the 27th. I recently saw a play at a local community theater and one the songs from the play was "Calm, Upbeat and Posivite" I think that should be our montra. What do you think?
    Take care and get some rest.

    So glad you are back. Hope you had a wonderful trip. I will be gone from April 27 through May 20 - to Italy and then Eastern Europe. I haven't been there for 4 years and I have been wanting to get back. So I will be out of pocket for a while after April 27.

    Kanga, I am so glad you are doing well. Next year it is my goal to get down under to Australia. We will keep in touch.

    Hi Kanga and Jen,
    Glad to hear the trip went well. I can't wait to celebrate my end of chemo with a trip...sooo many choices, but I do want to wait until I don't need 2 long naps each day!
    This board has been a very busy place; it's hard to keep up with the posts even reading each day...good luck with catching up.
    It's great to be able to read your posts again. Hang in there, and good luck with yur tests, Judy
