Topic: Coffee
Sorry everyone, I have been a bit busy and all this crappy weather has taken the wind out of my sails for planning any coffee time.  Here we are just past the middle of June already.

Innovis support group is this Monday @ 6pm til 730
Meritcare support group is Tuesday June 29th @ 630 til 730.

Any ideas on when to fit in some coffee?

Lori,
I have missed your smile! Congrats on the new baby "grandma"! They are a special gift.

Stop over for some support groups sometime. We also have a small group who is meeting up from time to time for coffee or such. We try and meet at least once a month, outside of the support groups.

Life here is busy as usual. Another school year over, I am working summer school, Camp-a-day program and I am working at Innovis on call. Busy,busy.

In May Steph and I did the 5K with the group from Meritcare including Dr.G and staff. Then the next morning Steph and I did the half marathon. My feet were dead after that! LOL

Keep in touch!

Phyllis,

I hope you enjoy your travels. Steve is correct that a few of us get together from time to time in the Fargo area. That is approx 90 miles (hr and half) away from Jamestown. If your planning on coming to the BIG town, let us know ahead and we will gather for some coffee at least! We love company and I bet you have an accent! and that gives you an extra 50 points!! LOL

Keep us posted of your plans.

Thanks everyone and nice to "meet" you!  Every day is a new day for me now - I know the surgery was a tool, but at least thus far, it has helped me make wise choices for the most part.

Hey Phyllis,

Welcome back to ND!!  I am from Fargo and am not sure what is going on in that part of the state.  There are a few of us in the Fargo area that meet once in a while.  Also, Merit Care and Innovis have support groups that meet monthly.

Let us know if you are coming through Fargo, maybe we can get some of us together to visit.

Steve

Actually - I'll be in the Jamestown,  Streeter areas from 6-25 thru 7-3 or 7-4 and would love to maybe find a group that is getting together during this time.

I grew up in Streeter and left there May of 1981 and moved to Oklahoma City with my mother when my parents seperated......

My mother has passed away back in 1996; however My DAD resides in Jamestown and  I will be spending most of my time there with the exception of maybe a day or 2 here and there in Streeter, Wishek,. Napoleon, Gackle areas

Okay - I'm rambling now................ANYTHING GOING ON IN THE JAMESTOWN AREA ?   MAYBE BISMARK IF NOTHING ELSE ?                DINNER GATHERING?       MAYBE THIS IS A TIME TO START UP SOMETHING.

I'm very active in the  Dallas- Ft Worth area  (TMB) on here in the Texas forums - RNY group...

Hopefully I'll have some internet capabilities up there cuz I'm taking my laptop with me......but who knows.   when I was a kid -  there wasn't ANYTHING in the way of technology in that area...

BTW   can you all get just a little warmer up there so I won't be freezin' to death while up there ? 

Have you all noticed that since surgery - you are always cold now ?  lol

My name is Tammi and I had surgery Oct. 22nd.  I am happy to be the lightest I've been in 20 years!  I try to attend the support group on Mon. at Innovis when my three teenagers aren't needing my presence somewhere.  I would also love to try to make it to one of the coffee times.
