HAPPY HAPPY Birthday Betty!!!!

I wish I had even an ounce of creativity so I could write you a little ditty the way you do for everyone else on their Birthdays.

Thank you for all the help and information you have given. Hope you have a very special day tomorrow.

Happy Birthday Mrs. BettyG,

Who greets all "newbies" without a fee,

She got her hip restored,

And now can dance some more.

What a gift to have a friend like BettyG!


I know it isn't as good as your poems,

But I was smiling as I wrote this.


Hope you have a wonderful birthday.

Dance a polka for me.

Love,

Geneal

Betty G.. how could it be?

Your birthday's here... how 'bout a beer?

You dance a lot

And sleep on a cot

And I think you

Can boog-a-loo

Real cool.

I don't do poems

I don't use combs

But since it's your special day...

I'll go ahead and make an exception.

Hey, this rhyming thing is over rated don't you know?



Happy birthday BG....

Do some dancing for me!

Happy Happy Birthday
To a Gal who's really grand

Deserves a Birthday ditty
From a sixty two piece band

She keeps us all more healthy
With her Newbie Package gift

And when we're feeling lowly
Gives each one of us a lift

If we have a question
She is "Johnny on the spot"

When our brains are working
And often when they're not

So raise a glass to Betty
And then send a hug or two

For to all those on Lymenet
She will always be TRUE BLUE!


Happy Birthday Betty
Hope it is filled with rhymes and blessings!!

wow - the talent here is amazingly
present for you, bettyg!

so, happy birthday to bettyg
whose birthday just begs for a little dit-tee

because she's hip and congas with glee
and no longer drives on roads i-cy

and never sleeps, nosirree,
as she types incessantly

to help lymenetters politically
or medically or emotionally

even when she turns six-ty
she sneaks back here to say hi to you and me...

for bettyg!

BettyG,

Looks like everyone is taking a shot so here goes....this is my shout out to BettyG. Try getting a rap beat going her if you can and do some scratching during the brekout.

Yo!! her name is Bettyg there is no deception
She's always the first on Lyment to make the reception
When people go on-line about to learn about their infection

Shes always out there fighting on the front line
shes got some super dance moves that are super so fine

She knows every protocal that was every written in the book
if you've been to infectious disease duck you will get a dirty look

Okay break it out now !!!

Yo! she's BettyG!
She Knows the LLMDs
She'll help fight your disease
she'll bless you when you sneeze

She'll tell you its okay
She hates the I D S A
She'll tell you that your sane
Its just your Lymie Brain

Yo!! her name is Bettyg i just want to say
I wanna give a shout out on her special day
Thank you for all your help..and happy BDAY!!!

Dave

There once was a lady named Betty
Who was sweet, smart, and never petty.
She got bit by a tick,
And she got quite sick
So she ran off to live with the Yeti.


Happy, happy birthday! Hey, you could roast a lot of ticks with 60 candles!!!

paulie, happy belated birthday by 9 months! you're the older man in my life. lol

i'm so happy to arrived at this age. losing my only sister, marilyn, at age 41 of breast cancer to the liver was terrible.

she'd say to me, i wish i had the extra 9 years ...our age difference so she could have watched both of her children be confirmed, graduate from high school, get married, and grandkids!

so each year is VERY PRECIOUS for me as i celebrate them for me and HER!

HOW I SPENT MY 60TH BIRTHDAY:

well, i was here with you folks until 2 am my time, and then collapsed in bed with my cpap. got up 930 and checked briefly my email to see what had come in.

went to bank to lock box and transferring money; getting my computer glasses fixed as they got bumped really bad and i wasn't seeing what i should have.

decided to eat out alone at the mall and a former co-worker and 2 friends were there. she has another spirochete disease, sarcoidosis! so we chatted as she sat with her friends in booth by me.

MY GIFT TO MYSELF/HUBBY TODAY!

a new 2009 chrysler, town and country, red van, 4 door and 7 passenger!! so i was getting car title at bank.

my old girl, 92 buick century, 4 door, was just starting to show her age after 17 years. so we decided to finally trade. she got GREAT MILEAGE; on road 28-34!!

this was 0% for 3 years, so why not!

i was looking ahead also knowing i feel hubby will need a wheelchair in future, and this will accommodate that easily vs. what it would have been like for our small buick.

so yesterday after getting home from the health conference in des moines, i stopped at this dealership to drive this van ONE more time.

i took it home for hubby to get inside; he looked day prior but didn't get in it. i wanted to make sure there were no problems; NOPE; thank goodness.

we talked more to make sure it was what we wanted, and we agreed and loved that new red color; our 2 other previous new ones were both navy in our almost 35 yrs. of marriage.

so after getting details on all the moving parts i should know about at dealership and 2 hrs. of paperwork; 1 yesterday and rest today; i left with it.


i had called my birthday into our local am radio, and i was 1 of 2 winners today. i got the $17 BD cake FREE; and bought myself $10 of their market bouquets: pink carnations and orange/coral mini roses where i made them up tonight.


when i got home our investor was here for scheduled meeting, boy we were hit bad last month when the bottom fell out, and got more matters cleared away. things had come up since last month in majority of things, and decided to sell off those not making profit.

so this was a very draining, mental day, but HAPPY to be driving my new vehicle, and i back up better in this one than my buick where i've been into my flower bed 3 times; got to get out there and get those tire ruts out of there.

fixed myself a good tbone i saw at grocery store awhile back; hubby doesn't like steak so fixed him a special fish meal.

then we pigged out on my marble; chocolate/white cake, but boy that frosting got to my diabetes!

later i had a good 1.5 hr. needed nap and going to bed early tonight too; i'm exhausted; 2 days straight and tomorrow too.

tomorrow, i'm meeting a lymenet member, BUGABOO, for 1st time! looking forward to it; she and i have corresponded since she joined here and she lived out of state at that time.

then i'll go visit my 97 yr. old aunt, in 2 wks., who is STILL DRIVING and in her own home.

you all comment about me and my energy! you ought to see her! she is/was still driving 2 hrs. to cedar rapids, iowa ALONE to visit niece/family normally once a month.

after that, i'll visit my step-son over there too. hubby's staying home; he doesn't go out in public, and we haven't eaten out in 5 years due to his extreme rolling hand tremors that are uncontrollable. he's very self-conscious of them and last year was falling alot. so he's failing so that's why i need to cut down daily on hours i spend here.

time for us to make more memories that will remain timeless.

had 6 snail mail birthday cards; and ALL OF YOURS HERE making me feel like QUEEN FOR DAY!

thank you all for making mine extra special; one i'll always look back on with fond memories and MANY BELLY LAUGHS at all the great poems!

I came back to see if you'd gotten here yet - I think we had as much fun writing stuff here as you did reading it.

Wanted to say it looks like you've got this kind of energy in your genes! You're still a youngun...hurrah to your aunt!

robin, dek, and pam,

thanks again for such nice notes.

i mentioned my aunt; you should have know my MOM; she had more energy than all FIVE of us grown kids combined!! she was go, go, go!

hubby always commented when it was time for mom to die, she'd be pushing up the coffin lid, saying "i've got one more job to do before you put this down on me!" she's been gone 19 yrs. 7-25-09!

it was great for all of you to be using your minds on rhyming things, wasn't it?

glad YOU all had as much with my birthday wishes, greetings, and poems as i did!


i'll be meeting BUGABOO in a little while for lunch for 1st time! looking forward to it. she's 2nd person to meet from here, and i'd met 2 others here including TROUTSCOUT 4.5 years ago after my diagnosis.


pam, you mentioned getting 60; perhaps you could put a post in MEDICAL with this link to get those who NEVER come to support to stop by; sorry just a subtle hint. lol

i love your idea though!!

Happy Birthday Betty

Too bad I missed the party

Was the ice cream and cake good??

Vans 'are' easier to get in and out of,no??

I dont like those cars so low to the ground you hit your head getting in.

Hope your around for 60 more!!

Isnt meeting lymies from this board grand??

Have met those near Pacific Ocean all the way to the Atlantic and LOTS in between,,,such fun!!

Dont celebrate so long you wear yourself out. sounds like you have alot of irons in the fire!!

I am off to beat on a few nails(or fingers),,,maybe saw some of those OFF again!!

I still have bats in my belfry being--just don--

I dont like those cars so low to the ground you hit your head getting in.

Hope your around for 60 more!!
Isnt meeting lymies from this board grand??

Have met those near Pacific Ocean all the way to the Atlantic and LOTS in between,,,such fun!!

Dont celebrate so long you wear yourself out. sounds like you have alot of irons in the fire!!

I am off to beat on a few nails(or fingers),,,maybe saw some of those OFF again!!
I still have bats in my belfry being--just don--

---

don, thank you so much for your wonderful comments as usual. yes, i love sitting up in the air to see what is coming down the road, and it's so much easier to back up in!!

yes, the cake was good; but i good tell on my diabetes too much icing and wasn't that awful rich stuff; just smooth.

glad you explained where those bats in the belfry were! after all, they say it's all in our heads.

hope your fingers survived your hammering today.
hubby has said i can remove nails QUIETER than anyone he's met in his life ... due to lyme nose !! he's bragged about that quite a bit to friends as we remodeled our house years ago.

robin, she got her wish, and i got the satisfaction of so many lyme friends making the time to stop by with their graphics, good wishes, and hilarious poems! a real win-win situation! xox

i started one in medical, and i need to go there as there was around 8-10 when i checked once!!

this birthday post will go down in history for ME!


troutscout, thanks for stopping by from one FELLOW IOWAN TO ANOTHER .... you LIFESAVER YOU on my ugly flagyl herx here on the board where you were called to come to my rescue, and that you did.

those 2 good looking policemen checking on my welfare that night were just to nice, and yes, tutu, i left them go back to work!

lymenetters, that was 1 night where MANY of you were involved in the saga of what was my full name, and what city did i live in iowa that the police could come and check on my well-being.

SO PLEASE LET 1-2 PEOPLE ON THIS BOARD KNOW YOUR FULL NAME, ADDRESS, PHONE NO. in case the police would need to be called, etc. less stress on the "lymenet posse".

kent, you were the 1st lymenetter i met at local support group meeting and woman from grinnell, mary or linda; i'm NOT good with names, at the same meeting.

you've helped many folks here during the entire time i've been here.

hi keebler; that sounds good .. a month of celebrating in style; i kicked up my heels monday when i couldn't find the parking ramp near cenvention center in des moines for obama's health fair.

today, i can barely walk on my right inside area arch! tonight i used my shoulder/neck frozen ice pack on it and numbed it good!

so much for kicking up my heels!
