Western New York Area

We are all together the most loyal, kind, bright, fun, courageous women ever brought together by you Maureen. Who would have thought how special we would be to each other at that first lunch at the Buffalo place.

Yes, we are such a great group. I always feel the love coming from all of you whenever I come to this board. Decorations up outside. Our tiny Christmas tree is up. I am calling it our Christmas branch. Safe on table away from Daphne. We leave for France a week from Saturday so our prep is different this year. My biggest worry is all of us having enough clothes to last the two weeks. I am doing the majority of my Christmas shopping in France this year. I have made some cookies but not many. And having friend for dinner on Friday to exchange gifts. Cannot wait for our lunch Saturday!!!

Hi Ladies,

Wish I could be @ the luncheon. I'm celebrating my birthday w/ friends & my cousin on Saturday. After reading the last few pages here, it seems everyone has been busy decorating & putting up their trees. All of my Christmas stuff is in storage & I just can't seem to get in the Christmas spirit. I did some shopping today after work; accomplished a little. Cheryl, I like your shopping motto!

My ex BF texted me again to tell me there was a message on his answering machine for me (the pharmacy) & then he texted again and asked "How was I doing?" I could have answered it in a million different ways; I know how I REALLY wanted to answer it but I just said "Great!".

I hope everyone is well & have a good time on Saturday! I want to hear all about it.

Linda

Good for you Linda. Linda when is your birthday, mine is coming soon also.

I will send the mailing list to those who do not attend Saturday.

Hugs to all

Just got the call. My first session for chemo (taxol) is next Wednesday

Hi all, it is very nasty here right now, all those on the road do be so careful, Betty I think you are getting hit pretty hard too, slow and easy to get home safely. It is sounding like Saturday is going to be nasty too, we will have to keep track of the weather reports, to see if it is safe to drive, I so hope so but we don't want any of us in danger, what do you all think, play it by ear till Saturday is closer? Everyone stay inside - warm, cozy and safe. love, Karen

She just texted me, thank God they're home safe.

Good morning ladies, for all who must drive, be oh so careful. It is looking like tomorrow will be too dangerous to drive, what say you?, do we plan a January Christmas? and hope for a good day, we were really lucky last winter, we had good weather and did not miss a month, this winter is looking like winters of years ago. Betty and Debbie you are our two working weekend gals, PM me a good weekend for you. I am definitely not driving tomorrow, if everyone will weigh in, I will let Creekview know we are canceling or that the number will be much reduced. Stay safe and warm and again for those who must drive, be oh so careful. hugs, Karen

OK Debbie, it looks just dandy now, no snow, no wind but the weatherman is still saying bad stuff on the way, will keep checking the forecasts.

Hi all, just spoke with Cheryl, in the time it took from when I posted you Debbie, we are just short of white out here in the village, alerts out for travel in Southern Erie, Northern Erie and Genesee, will make final decision in the AM will call Susan and Cheryl, Deb, I'll post to Debbie, I don't have your phone no. because you'd have to travel through Genesee , or PM it to me. hugs, Karen

Forecast does not look good.... I'm going to hunker down tomorrow... We all know how quickly things can change with lake effect snow...

Christmas in January for me too, Genesee County is expecting 7 inches beginning late tonight and extending through tomorrow. Tell all the pets they will get their cards and gifts in January, as will all of you, Buster, Santa heard you talking loud on the phone when your mom was trying to talk to Karen, you will be getting 2 gifts, one for naughty and one for nice. Take care everyone, stay safe and warm, love Karen

Hi Betty, I think Susan and Cheryl were still planning to go, why don't you give them a call, if you need the cell numbers shoot me a PM and I will PM them back to you, it is just going to be really bad here in Genesee County, Debbie would need to drive through here to get to Williamsville, I am just really a chicken about white out conditions and that is what they are forecasting. What is a good weekend for you in January? We were really lucky last winter with the weather being so mild, we never missed a month.
