    Cookie and friends.

    Why does it have to be Saturday evening? Why not an afternoon. It might be better in the dead of the winter. I can understand making it late during the week but why must it be on a weekend.I think many would like a Saturday afternoon. Any takers? Any thoughts.

    Congrats Deb..A great milestone.

    Hugs,

    Francine

    yea Deb!!!!!! woooooo!!!!!

    I just got back from Miami we had a really good time, I actually feel like I was away for a week, we did so much for a 3 nite trip.

    Ethan really liked Florida, which is good, it makes him like the East Coast better.

    I even went swimming for the first time since sx, my PS said I should go in the ocean, and it really worked. I actually did not take pain meds for 24 hours!!!!!!

    Ok, so lets go with Saturday at 5, I will count up the thread and tell chelev. If it is more than she can get, they are only 12$ and 6 through Goldstar.

    Cheers!

    Crusader, I wanted us to have a dinner as well.

    Also I can't make it earlier. Sorry, I will never find perfect time for all.

    I can try to make it 1/2 hour earlier, but did not want y'all stuck waiting for me.

    Deb...

    Wahoooo!  So glad you are DONE!  May it always be so!!

    Cherylin, we are planning our second gathering at the Boat Show.  Cookiegal is our organizer!(Thanks cookiegal!)  Hope you can join us!

    Thanks all for the congrats on the new job...even though I started to feel like I never wanted to go back to work again after this past year, I am beginning to feel like it is time to be productive again.  Kinda like coming out of a fog when it comes to work anyway....I know this is a good thing.

    Linda, hope you were able to manage a post Christmas family gathering?? 

    Is it beastly cold today or what????    brrrrrrrr!!!

    God Bless!

     EVERYONE ELSE

    Happy New DECADE!

    Happy New Year!!!!!!!

    Please check the headcount list at the top....and let me know of any changes.

    This is the number of free tix I will request....if we don't get the whole number they are not that expensive anyway. I also will make reservation for dinner. (That is a good time to eat in mid town since a lot of people clear out to go to the theatre around 7:40)

    It's a little tricky to keep track of rsvp's on this thread (next time I might make a separate RSVP thread)

He has developed a menu and ambiance that responds to and thrives on the ever-changing dining trends in New York City.

    I plan on being there for dinner, having been tortured by going on my dad's boat fishing Evey weekend of my teen years, and because I don't want to miss that much time with my daughter, I think I'll skip the boat show but will definitely meet you girls for dinner and a drink.

    Don't think I'll be able to make it this time around. My elbow is taking longer to heal than I thought, and by the end of the day it feels like my arm is ready to fall off! I'm still not able to cut meat, make a straight part, or brush my teeth with my right hand/arm! :( I'm hoping once I get into physical therapy again, things should be better. But you can definilty  count me in on the next get together!

    Thanks all! After being on the phone all day today I'm finally able to start physical therapy on Tuesday night! Yea!!!!!! If I feel up to it, I might meet up with you for dinner. I still have Cookie's cell phone number, so I'll just give a call.

    I'm glad that things are finally starting to get rolling, it was getting extremely frustrating. I guess going thru having BC, and having great doctors, and a wonderful support group/family/friends, I just expected the same with this. Work hasn't been the greatest, the doctor's offices being incompetent, and workers comp being the worst insurance out there. I just have to keep a stiff upper lip!

    Hope to see you all soon!

    Janet :)
