Aloha

Aloha from sunny Hawaii. Boy have I missed everyone. I am using the internet at the Xerox Business CTR in Waikiki. Talk about ironic. Gonna get a discount for being a retiree. Have loads of memories and stories to tell when I get back in May. Best one is the day I shared with a fellow looser going horse back riding on Maui. The horses were lucky to get me 160 lbs lighter than a year ago and Carmella lost 170 lbs. So it was such a treat for all. Have loads of tips for your travels too. Just go prepared. Will try to keep in touch even if just a little. I am so glad you are all so super. Thanks to Tina, Nicki, Linda and Val for keeping me up on everyone. So sorry I missed Penny's big day. But you sounded great when I talked to you. Hope all is going good still. See everyone soon. ((HUGS)) Elissa

E!! Glad you posted another update, I have really missed you being around. lol funny the habits we get into. Something will happen and I'll think " I should tell Elissa" but you're not home. I sent everyone at the meeting last week your well wishes and hello's. Can't wait for you to meet Jone and Jenn, you will like them alot. VERY cool about meeting the OH member and the I have never ridden a horse,, they're beautiful, but quite frankly scare the crap out of me Take care, and enjoy yourself, but hurry home damnit, I wanna see the pics and hear what happened! Miss ya tons. Linda

Hey!!!!!! I was so glad to see a post from you. Miss seeing you on the board. Hope you are having a good time. Mom and I were just talking about you the other day. My big day is May 3rd. Wish you were going to be here for it. That's OK though. I got my Mom and my family to support me. Well, take care and have a great time. Smiles!!! Julie

I am so jealous! Thanks so much for calling me. It meant the world to me that you would take the time to do that all the way from Hawaii! The group has been taking good care of me. Can't wait till you get home to see ya. Enjoy your time in paradise. Penny

It's great to hear from you, glad you are having such a wonderful time. Miss your daily postings. Towanda T.
