Had all set up to have a total Hyst./And have my port taken out done on Dec 18thTook me 4 months to find a DR that was here and would do the surgery in Reston well 1 week before Dr Jack Ayoub office called and said have good news and bad well the good was the Ins said they did not need approval and they would pay 100% (yes I knew that ) But the assistant DR a Alex Rahini is not on my Ins so I would have to pay him in fact he doesn't take Ins at all very weird..Asked well DR Jack could work with someone else HE REFUSES so surgery put off again.........Hope to get this mess cleared up or at least remove my port...

Jeepers,
I am in Gainesville. Are you anywhere near me?
Hugs,
Peggy
-
Hope everyone is well after their status updates and welcome Jeepers!
For February's get together -- what's the plan?
-
Was thinking of having the next luncheon at Sweetwater Tavern in Centreville (per PeggySull's request) ... We could do a Potomac Mills lunch or Uncle Julio's in Reston in March??
Thoughts???
-
It all sounds good to me!
-
I'm good with all 3 as well. Jeepers, are you able to join us? If so, that may swing us towards somewhere closer to you. If not, I'm voting for Sweetwater in Centreville.
-
Centreville is a little far for me, but I'll see you all at the next one. Hope everyone is doing well. I love my"Vinnies."
-
The luncheon for February 7th will be at Sweetwater Tavern in Centreville at noon. For March, we can either do Uncle Julio' s in Reston or something closer to Gallows Rd /Arlington Blvd if anyone has restaurant suggestions.
-
I plan to be there, thanks for arranging things, as always. You are the real stability in this group!
Hugs,
Peggy
-
Odie, at Gatehouse Plaza, I'm a fan of Sweetwater Tavern. I believe our group met there once before. just a thought
-
Placid,
We picked the Centreville location so PeggySull could join us but will be happy to do a restaurant in your neck of the woods next time if you don't mind suggesting some spots.
-
Odie-- thank you for organizing as always. I'll be there next Saturday! As for locations-- I will travel to see you ladies!
-
I will be there depending on when my repair men come. It is any time between 10 and noon ...lol
-
Thanks, Odie! was replying to your note suggesting gatehouse plaza, I thought for March.
-
I might be a teeny bit late tomorrow, but I'll be there!!
-
Ok ladies. We shall meet at Sweetwater Tavern in Centreville tomorrow at noon/12:15... Hope to see everyone there!
-
Enjoyed a great lunch at Sweetwater Tavern this month. Next month's luncheon will be at gatehouse plaza. Which restaurant is there or are there several? Also would it be okay to have the lunch on 03/14 instead of the first Saturday? I am having eye surgery on 03/07 so will need someone else to coordinate if we stick to that date.
-
I would like 3/14 as well. The main restaurant at Gatehouse Plaza is also Sweetwater. Just further up the road in the Mosaic District are many choices. Ted's Bulletin is a good one there
-
I would also like 3/14. I'll be home the 7th for my dad's heart surgery
-
14th this perfect!! Sweetwaters in Merrifield off of Route 50 and Gallows Road!
Stay warm!!
Good Luck Karen with your eye surgery!
-

-
Ha ha!! Thanks for the good wishes. If everyone is good with it, shall we do Sweet Water Tavern at Gatehouse Plaza at noon on 03/14??
Placid, sending positive juju for your dad's surgery Saturday.
