Hey everybody!!  I know that Long Beach Coffee is usually on the LAST Saturday of EVERY Month but I propsed to move it because of the Holidays!!  So I will be there THIS Saturday November 20th and would love to see anyone who can make it!!

For those who don't know Long Beach Coffee is a LONG time tradition started before WLS was even a glimmer in my eyes!!  It is a group of pre/post bariatric patients from different programs and walks.  We just meet up and reaquaint with each other.  We all "know" each other so it's not a "traditional" support group but we ask question and GET great support.

So if YOU are in the area please come on by!!

 Hi Jeani,

There is a clothing exchange.  Feel free to bring what you wish.  

I am hoping to make it this week and I have 3 bags of clothes.  I need to get them out of my house by Thanksgiving weekend.

I am in 18/20's and would love to see what you have.

 Hey there Shell:
I am feeling good, just can't lift anything yet.  I so want to vacuum but I will leave that to my kids.  Headed to the surgeon now to see if/when he will release me for work.

I am planning on making coffee and have 3 bags of stuff to bring.  Will need someone to take it out of the car for me.  Hopefully my hubby or son will load it in the car and hubby does not say, "We need to go to the market".  We can go to the market after coffee and this will allow him to put up the Christmas lights on the house and cut the lawn.  

See ya soon GF

 Hope to see you all on Saturday morning--tons of errands that day but coffee is a great way to start.  I am recovering from gall bladder and appendix removal and hernia repair last Friday 11/12 but I should be good to go.

Don't overdue it especially because hernia's can reappear if you don't take it EASY...key word EASY!!

Hello Everyone.
I am leaving on Thursday night to go see my dad in Vegas and will not return until Monday the 22nd.  Therefore, I cannot make it, however, I wish you all a great time and post some pictures on OH and FB.
Thanks

We could learn a lot from crayons: 
some are sharp, some are pretty, 
some are dull, some have weird names, 
& all are different colors....but they

ALL exist very nicely in the same box.
