Oui! ~
 

Cy's BRILLIANT poetic ineptitude adds such a wonderful dimension to all of our dreams, goals and aspirations......NONE of which are in the realms of impossible IMO! :rolleyes:

As i dig deeper into my left pocket, I find more 'smilies' from the confines of my secret dark underworld of improvisational cyber-stupidity......

http://dl8.glitter-graphics.net/pub/...npt1lbzpqz.gif Running along the beach in honor of Echoes.....:)...the hairdo is in honor of Mere :p

http://dl2.glitter-graphics.net/pub/...ox8io744gw.gif....this would, of course, be Darlinda swimming the ocean....(?)...although I don't know why she insisted on Mere's hairdo :p.......and I can't explain the sidekick....he's just thrown in for good measure I spose....

http://dl9.glitter-graphics.net/pub/...ixxjrysucc.gif....Sarah Mae, you RIDE girl!!.....(it's rather obvious at this point that Mere's hairdo has caught on)

....and of course me and my aspiration to ride again!http://dl.glitter-graphics.net/pub/2...m1lzhsn9er.gif

I LOVE the idea of a movie!! With Cy's intellectual capability in the fine Arts of Screenplay Mastery, and I'm sure we ALL have some inborn sense of acting skills which could render us in some major production company!

Who will be our casting director?! MrsD is on vacation, so we've got to float this boat on our own Mate~s !

Cy already gets dibbs on Sandra Bullock
I will have none other than Johnny Depp play my character......(?)...course he'd need a sex change....or not? He's always open to venturing into the unknown as far as taking on lunatic rolls in his films.....:)

.....Let the LEGENDS Live On!!...... http://dl2.glitter-graphics.net/pub/...rwikxxpje6.gif
...and may our dreams never be jaded!
AMEN!

Love love love it! :) You are SO fun! My hair has changed quite a bit, but hey, if I can get rid of some pain, I'll take any hairdo you would like! haha :) :hug:

Mere I also would still be working, I keep saying on good days maybe I could go back even part time then I get a bad day and I throw that out the window. :thud::thud:

Cyclops I would love to ride your 10 seater bike, but could it be laid back style, like they have in the gyms.:icon_idea: also I think Kathy Bates would be great for my part in the movie.

Rrae I love your graphics, thank you for the pic of me on an Elephant, I can keep dreaming. :circlelove::circlelove:

Sweet dreams to everyone :Zzzz::Zzzz::Zzzz::Zzzz::Zzzz::Zzzz:

Well, Ok, maybe not a bike for 10,
maybe just a REAL tandem?
Maybe not an elephant ride,
but shopping for a fake zebra hide?
Perhaps it won't be a cross country run,
But a walk in the park could be fun.
So maybe all this fantasy,
Could spur us on in reality.
Sure, it isn't fun thinking of what we WOULD have done,
but maybe there are still some things that could be fun.

Of course, we all have things we wish we could still do....
and I don't think it is just neuropathy that stops us sometimes....
I hear perfectly healthy people say, "I wish I could do this or that" and I think, well what is stopping you?

So don't be glum chum....

Bring on the jugglers with neuropathy....the elephants on neurontin....the bike with 10 seats....and 9 sets of pedals....the hair doos, the underwear, the red heels, and batons...and majorettes that twirl flaming batons, and balloons, and buffoons, and our special guest Dr. Seuss....

and I really don't care who plays me...just not Lady Gaga?! Oh what the heck...invite her too. It's a NEUROPARTY.

Haha I love that, cyclelops. :)

It's so true, though... so many people live their lives and don't go after their dreams... and then talk about how they wish they could go back and do things differently. I certainly would go back and not have had surgery and then I wouldn't have neuropathy and be stuck in bed... but since I can't change the past, it's best to just focus on the present and the future.

And while I can't do the things I really want to, I do spend my days keeping myself busy between the computer, tv, books, puzzles, etc. It may not be how I envisioned spending my life... but for now, it's the best I can do and I'm okay with that. :)

I have to go brush my teeth....and get ready for bed, which could require most of my energy right now....I cr@pped myself out doing 'not much' today. Some days 'not much' takes a lot of energy.

LOVE you all....and it may be a bike for 21, or 30, with however many pedals we need.....we are in this together.:grouphug:

BTW, once I met a one legged cyclist who was riding cross country and he crossed the Rockies....and this was on a regular, unmodified bike, minus the one pedal.

I once met a totally blind woman also riding cross country on a bike....simply riding right next to a person who was her guide.

Next to these inspirational people, I feel like a yutz. I hope they can fix my hands, and I am going to give it a try, at least on a tandem....which I think we will buy this winter.

Granted, there are some, that simply can't ride a bike, or run(I don't dare) but, maybe, we can do something....write poems..(perhaps a bit better than my endeavors), blog, fight smog, whatever....NONE of us is useless.:Wave-Hello:

imagine
 

Imagine if somehow the electric currents going through our bodies could be used to power: :BeamUp:

A small town

A tall building

Our houses (no more electric bills that would be good)

With everyone together we could do that.

Your neuroparty cyc could be neuropowered.:partytime2:

This bike for how ever many - we would not have to pedal we could power it.

Medical science - just dreaming again!!!! :Zzzz::Zzzz::Zzzz:

Hugs everyone :grouphug::grouphug::grouphug::grouphug:

I would wear fabulous shoes (lots of nice shoes out there this season)!

Dance! (it wouldn't be attractive cause it never was but I'd do it anyhow)

Go back to Tae Kwon Do and learn to kick some booty!

In Awe :)
 

Heavens to Murgatroid!
This thread has no doubt brought out the wondrous artistic capability in all of us!
Thank you Cy for always somehow making things seem bearable ~

And Dance! Like Im4dexter says! (even if it has to be in an aqua therapy pool).

We don't have to let our lives revolve around neuropathy.......
We CAN dream! AND we can MAKE things happen!

Hmmm, maybe my 'Morontin' IS kicking in? :Scratch-Head:
By the way, it IS a medication in the same family as 'Loopyabamine', which is the generic form of Ihavenoideawhatimtalkingaboutizine.....

I love watching my 'spellcheck' have a hayday as i type these words! ha!
Ok, i'll go back to my cellar now.......

Dance---Dance---Do, doo, doo-op---Dance.....

Oh, my grandson loves when I dance....he belly laugh's...

Every one else runs away.....

But, Foo-Foo-Foo-op on them.....

It's me and my dancing shoes, and my favorite little man....OK, so he is only 6 months....but he APPRECIATES me and my dancin'. He likes my singing too, which is even worse.

Also, I would plant acres of sunflowers just to look at them!
I would plant a vineyard.....and share the 'fruits' of my labor.

I WOULD OWN A HORSE and ride her, with my gray locks flying in the wind....nevermind that the rest of me would be loosely flying around too.....I could wear baggy clothes, right?

I would let hubby have his own body back, and not ask him to do everything I can't do. He is very nice about letting me in, but, really, the poor man should own his body and not have to open every jar, do every task and plant popcorn for me, cuz I want to try to grow it. He hates planting rutabaga too....but he does it for me.

Why is it that we value what we could do, when we can't do it?

I like this thread, because it unites us in our humanity....it is one time, we can all feel for each other, regardless of what our loss is.....LET'S GO RIDE BIKES AND ELEPHANTS--AND HORSES---IN RED SHOES--WHILST TWIRLING BATONS! if only in our dreams.

One good quote is "Do something that scares you every day".....truly that is a good way to live....when I did that I felt more challenged. Even going to Walmart is scary these days, so, it is easy to find things that scare me.

Ah, yes...
