A couple of girls and I were supposed to go to Vegas, but as God thought to see fit, one has breast cancer and the other has stomach cancer. That is why I have been so depressed lately. So we made a deal that after they finish chemo and are in remission, we're going. I don't know what made me share this with you. My son's out for the night; I'm all alone, so I was feeling out of sorts and lonely. I've been sick all week. I must have lifted something heavy and ruptured the veins or muscle in my right chest. I thought I was having a heart attack. I'm still having little chest pains. The doctor said it will go away; I hope he's right. Anyway, thanks for taking the time to read this. You guys are great. Hugs

Hi,
Congrats on a great idea. The concept is great. I personally am not a camper. I think it would be great to be at a resort with so many others who have the same problem. Our winters are terrible. I tried camping once when I was younger. I only lasted one day. I need my comfort. Your idea was not dumb but brilliant.

For those of you still looking for love after your ostomy... don't give up! One day, when you least expect it, there will be a message in your inbox... always remember that when you're not looking, life has a brilliant way of surprising you with someone in your life you have so much in common with, and either you make a great new friend or you will find the person you were always looking for! I, for one, thank God I found this website... I was in a low place when I first started, and now I've never been happier! ~Traci~

That idea is a great one for I think that maybe Las Vegas is a good idea. Well, this is just a start.

Camping would be okay, but I don't think I could outrun the bears anymore. LOL

Yanno, we have the best beaches in the world, the best lifestyle in the world, the best country in the world, and the best beer in the world. Why doesn't everyone move here? Lol

Oh, and I live here. What more could you want?

Never fear !  Your WD is here!  lmao  I'll protect yah!  Hell, I have a bear or two strolling through my 'yard' every year and have had to run off more than a few in different situations (not that it's a good idea)  but when it comes to bear getting too close to my beloved critters out there, I might stand 5'3" tall but my protective bear-scarin' attitude makes me feel 8 feet tall....it might be dumb, but I don't care.   I don't always make the brightest moves....but, they're  'Doe moves' and so far they've worked!   lol !   What is life without a bit of danger

I remember as a small child growing up on the farm, my young cousins and I would make a game out of sprinting from one end of the cow pasture to the apple trees in center field after Gramps let our angry Bull out of the barn.  That snortin' charging mountain of an animal hated everything and everybody......so, that was perfect  (AND STUPID, I know)  perfect excitement for a little group of bored dare-devil farm kids....RUUUUUnNNNnnnnnnnnn to the apple trees before we get bunted and gored or stomped!  We always made it, jumped up into the branches and climbed the apple trees like little monkeys and hung there like...well...like our lives depended on it  lol  while "Horny" the Bull rammed his head into the tree making a shower of falling apples.........which brought all the cows over.  That's when we could make our sneaky exit from the trees, once all the Bull's gentle and lovable ladies were there he had no interest in us at all.   Yup....bring it on, I say!

I think it's too late to change me.........in many ways, I will always be running off bear and trying to out-run mad bulls in my life....oh you wouldn't believe some of the crazy things I have done...but I'm still here, and with a twinkle in my eye.

You know, Mike, you don't have to outrun the bears; just be able to outrun whoever is with you!!!!!

Er... safe?

I don't care where we meet, though Vegas sounds good (but then you could say anywhere, and that would sound good to me). Camping or hotel, I'm not fussed as long as, if camping, it is warm.

Great Camping Adventures! I've been camping around Australia, the USA, and Canada and loved it all. Recently, I bought a new pink sleeping bag with a furry trim and a new tent. I tried them out last holidays—very enjoyable sitting around the campfire on cool nights and sitting in the stream on hot days.

I'm thinking if we can't actually camp together for one reason or the ten that I have read here, then maybe we could cyber-camp. I'll start...

There I am with my pink furry sleeping bag in my new blue tent set up on the edge of Morse's Creek. I've blown up my lilo with a foot pump. Now what's for dinner...

Thank you, J Maree. A term I can use here in Moncton, N.B. Lol. You must be a historian, am I right? Or a history major, maybe a teacher?

Knowing me, I find a campsite where water is nearby. I'll go catch us some fresh fish!

I don't think it's 'Whoever is the slowest.' I reckon it's 'Who's got the smelliest bag'

Brings me to recall the day I had to take my darling Compton to the vet with a blockage of his own -

'What's he been eating?' asks the vet

Ummm, a used ileostomy bag, says I with a red face! It did manage to come through on its own; you could tell it was that because the Velcro strip at the bottom hadn't quite been digested! He has had a few more since; seems he thinks of it as a treat and will always know somehow if someone has neglected to close the bathroom door properly!

AW! Compton! Lmao, that is one beautiful face, Rachel! Is he okay now?

Mar 09, 2010 9:06 pm

Oh yes, he is just fine! He acts more like a cat, really; sleeps a lot, eats, and wants affection - not bothered about going out for a walk. I sometimes have to drag him! He is deaf and is a bit of a comedian - just has a funny way about him somehow... a big softie! xx

OMG Rachey! Compton is adorable!!!! He looks so silky.... I want to plant a smooch on that pooch! LOL

Mar 11, 2010 10:26 pm



Ha, Doe, he would just love that! He is a complete love bunny and laps up the attention! He does look silky there - and quite a lot of the time he is, but if he comes across some fox or badger poo, he just loves to roll in it, and then he just smells disgusting. You wouldn't want to plant a smooch on the pooch then! xx
