It's Martini time. Hic! Martinis are now being served by the pool... Who wants a Chocolattini? Who wants a Cranttini? I brought plenty of hors d'oeuvres to go with it. The party is still going on... Right?!?! Hic!

Core, it's not Dee's birthday - we're just celebrating her because she means so much to so many.

And beyond that, when it comes to partying, who needs a reason??

Indeed, Pandora, that was my Stupendous Man disguise, not a lampshade as Mugsy surmised, and my so-called Chicken and Hamster dances were simple attempts to take flight (although I hear they can look awfully similar after the fifth daiquiri!) Sigh... show up to RESCUE the stumblers and fall under suspicion of causing the accidents... Even on Deedle's Day I get no respect.

Hi.

After a lie down and a sober up ( ]

What a party, eh ?? Hope you're having a fantastical time, Dee

Love, love and more love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Mad

Still partying Jose, been looking forward to those Martini's. Come on and follow me.......I see that Mad is back and she whispered to me earlier that she was going to lead the Conga as soon as she got back. Hope she remembers that part.

Jack, love, we will ALL still respect you in the morning! Of course many of us took pictures of you in your lampshade and cape to show to your grandchildren some day.

Hugs, Cheryl

Geezlouise! {Hic-cup} Looks like every one is getting into the pool wonderful!!!!

[Actually, I have a feeling my earlier "lapse" and subsequent unclear memory has led to some unscrupulous people (mainly called Cheryl ) taking advantage of my good nature

One last HAPPY DEE DAY to you DEE and then I'm gone

Happy Deedle Day!!

Sending lots of love and positive energy to you, dear one.

Hugs,
Judy

My goodness Mad, you are mad! You have played all through the night! Do you usually not go to bed until after the sun rises in your part of the world? Wasn't it a lovely day.
jjk
Hi Judy, did you ride the trails all day or shovel.....
Hugs, Joyce

~Dee....
Hope you enjoyed the Easter Card I sent. I pray for you always and feel your pain and dispair.
We could have our own Mutual Unadmiration for Ourselves club" LOL Just Kidding.
PRAYING FOR YOU ALWAYS and thinking ONLY GOOD thoughts........Hank and Blanchedog (send her doggie kisses)
PS....sorry I was so late in getting in here and so many of you great friends told me of this .."thank you" , but I was "under the weather"

Oh, my goodness, am I late? I'm usually not late for anything.......May I join the party anyway? It looks like the band is still playing and I brought my dancing shoes! Dee, I remembered this poem from the book "Friends Through Thick and Thin" and thought of you. I know you will be coming out into the sun and flying from flower to flower soon:

Metamorphosis by Gloria Gaither

The spring is metamorphosing into summer
And I can feel the dry and leathery skin
That encased me through the winter
Getting much too tight and troublesome
For comfort.
I want out!
Out into the fragrant breeze
That soon will dry the natal moisture
From my wings.
Out into the sun
From which I'll draw
The energy to fly.

And fly I will!
And as I soar,
I'll saturate my mind
With sounds of love and peace,
Everything that moves or breathes.
I'll smell the fragrance of the earth
And kiss the wind
And taste the brand of honey
Every blossom has to offer;
Yet I'll be sure to hear
The silence that the warm and welcome
Evening brings,
And in it I will race with shadows
Just to see which one of us
Can tiptoe in more softly
'Cross the grass.
(I'll walk so gently,
Even you won't
Hear me pass.)

And knowing as I do
The days can't last,
That winter will return too soon,
I'll do and hear and think
And taste it all!
I'll store up multicolor memories
To take me through
The long, gray days
Of winter.

Dee, your Winter days are going to be over very soon, and you will be flying before you know it! I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Hugs,
Beth

Hi Dee,
I'm a pretty serious sort of old fogey ... or should I say somber?

I gather that you're not in the best of health right now.

Please get MUCH better, and soon.

Our thoughts are with you.
With very best good wishes ..............
Love ... Len Green.

Well certainly looks quieter round here now...

Picked up my superbroom and dustpan.. off to clear up Ohh martinis and daiquiris still here.. wonder if they go well with bacon and eggs??

I'll find out when I have tidied up

Tig

Hello Dee
Sorry I am so Late!

Sending lots of Love and Prayer your way!

I am really enjoying this great Party!!
But where is the Diet Dr. Pepper ???????

Hi Dee,
I think one Deedle Day is not enough. So I'm starting a second. I've brought a special Easter bread with colored eggs baked inside it and eggs benedict and champagne. Just a small thank you for all you do around here. Please keep fighting; we all need and love you!!!!

Wow! I am just overwhelmed by the poems, songs and warm thoughts. I can't believe so many of you took the time to come to the party. I slipped out a little early but you guys were all having such a good time you didn't even notice. <img border="0" alt="[winky]" title="" src="graemlins/winky.gif" /> I came back this morning and was so happy to see that breakfast is being served. I hope you have a wonderful Easter with your families.

Thank you so much for the cards and warm thoughts. You have no idea what they meant to me. You have given me a new lease on life. I hope you are all around in 4 years and 10 months and will come to my I am a breast cancer survivor Party!

Love to you all!!! <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[kiss]" title="" src="graemlins/kiss.gif" />
