Oh, Shirl, you must have emailed the link at the end. Maybe I'll send you an invite from the yahoo group. You want teamsurvivorsd@yahoo.com

I'll see what I can do.

 Brenda, do you have any hard copy photos from Pinkstock? Will you any of your souvenirs have arrived by then? It would be cool to see some.

The 24th, SUNDAY, at 1pm at the Cal Pizza Kitchen sounds good to me.

Hope you don't have any emergencies, Susan. And, hey - You are at that wonderful stage where we all love to see your hair growth each time we meet!

I will be getting my hard copies of pic tomorrow. Souvenirs have not arrived yet. Maybe next week.

Hi all,

Sorry I have not been posting lately---Lisa, looked at the Dragon boat link and that looks like alot of fun--thanks for sharing!  Glad to hear you had fun in NY Brenda---that is a wonderful place to be in the summer time--love the Finger Lakes region of the state.

Anyway-seems like I have had alot on my plate lately with work and family obligations. Had to make a trip to Denver to make arrangements for my Aunt and Uncle..he is 93 and she will be 89 in Oct (My Aunt Sylvia--born on her B-Day---so I was named for her). No children and there are 4 nieces and two nephews. Of course the nephews BELIEVE what their Uncle tells them---THAT everything is fine and the nieces (I'm the most senior one!!) understand and know better!! They desperately need to move or have in home care---so was able to pull together some stop gap measures that will work short term.

Making the rounds on Drs appts again---the anuerysm that was found in the artery going to my spleen (incidental finding on my most recent bone density-which was bad) just needs to be watched--- Vascular surgeon says it is TOO close to the spleen to fix-- so if it grows--I will have to have my spleen removed.... I'm trying not to hear that huge ticking noise coming from my left side.

I'm having a B-Day get together for my oldest daughter that weekend(aug 24th) so will have to miss this months lunch---Sept is looking crazy already --I have finally gotten approval for lymphodema therapy and will be starting that---in addition to needing some dental work---

so on it goes---trying to keep my head and spirits above water...

Take care all,

Sylvia

Brenda--I'll probably drive by myself b/c I will be at church until noon, then have to come home and get the kids changed and their lunch going, etc., before I leave, so it's hard to commit to a departure time. The next time lunch is on a Saturday it's easier for me to carpool, so we can plan it then.

It's the CPK in Carmel Mountain, right? 

Hi gals, wouldn't you know it, my grandaughter gets home from Hawaii on the 24th at 11:33am.  We have to pick her up because her dad will be in England on business.  He leaves the 23rd.  (He is the son who lost his wife to Pancreatic CA two years ago, so no one else can get her).  But I am coming, anyway, I will maybe be a little late.  But the traffic should be good.  Don't wait for me, I am a very fast eater.  I can catch up.  Unless she is late, I should be there with you all on time.

Hugs, Shirlann 

Well, I can't come.  My grandaughter just called, her flight has been changed to 1:10pm arrival.  Darn it!  It was so sweet, guitarGrl, to ask her to come.  She would have loved it.  Anyway, be sure and take a picture.  I am heartbroken.  This is the one who lost her mom to Panreatic CA 2 years ago, this is the first time she has been away from home, so I need to be there.  Shucks, Shirlann

tell me again what street that cpk is on?

Hi y'all! I haven't forgotten! Nash, I can't wait to hear all about your new start-up non-profit skating project. Sorry you can't make it, Shirl. Anyone else is still welcome! An intimate group like this month's is a great opportunity to really chat and get acquainted.

Lisa

Who is bringing the camera? SoCal will have our heads if we forget. Mine doesn't take very good pictures but I will try to remember it.

It was a wonderful, intimate chat with just the four of us today. We could actually complete sentences and hear each other across the table.  I do love it when we have a large turnout, but this sort of gathering had its charms, too. SoCal, Brenda was diligent about bringing her camera, but I'm not so sure about the competence of our ditzy waitress. We may have to wait for some photoshop skills to be called in.

Hugs to all

Lisa

Let's see what this looks like:

Capturing it off a web post is not exactly the most efficient, but it's good for a bit of editing. . .

Next year Shirlann? I hope you can make it before then LOL.

the picture was saved at too low a resolution for  me to do anything with - sorry. We did have a really nice time in such a small group, but we did miss the rest of you.

I read in the paper yesterday that the lady who owned The Pink Ribbon store in Carlsbad has passed away. She died of Luekemia after having had bc. How sad.
