I am from Santa Cruz Ca...a small beach town near Monterey.
I spent the BEST years of my life there.

Years later...I get moved to a small Northern Cal town.Almost 300 miles from my ocean.I have lived here in this dusty town 21 years.
In 2005,I was DX with breast cancer,and was told I needed a Dbl mastectomy.

So ,before my surgery date.I took my FIRST trip back to Santa Cruz.Stayed in a really nice Hotel.Had a wonderful time driving around my old haunts.
I took a friend with me to a remote beach,it was just he and I.
I took off my shirt and bra,and danced my breasts under the sunlight,as the sun slowly went down.My friend called me "dancingd".
So ,I had my surgery,recovered .....and that's how I got my screen name!dancingd!

Rambette!! When I was working at the factory while putting myself through college, I subbed for this big Indian guy who went on vacation. They called him Rambo. He laways managed to get off his stool and step into the waste basket. Go figure, I did the same thing while working in his place. Hence, Rambette.

My dobie Henry was running in a field of snow. His black fur looked like velvet against the sparkling snow. He was so far away he looked like a dot. When I called him back I called him Dobie Dot. The name stuck. In his honor, I now use the name.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
