Middle Ohio Group - and a WOW! and WHOO HOO!

Well, it was just me and Pammy at the lunch last Sunday.  We had a great talk and discovered that her son in law is someone I work with .. he is good people too!  I think we spent a good five minutes shaking out heads.  Pammy has a sassy new hairdo too!  Great stuff!

So, here are my wow and whoo hoo:

WOW:  Today I went to the gyn and they let the patient move the slides on the scale.  Talk about body dysmorphia!  I started at 250.  I weighed in, after a day of heavy drinking (water, thank you!), at 199!!!  We'll see how long that lasts!

WHOO HOO:  The grandbaby came last night at two minutes to midnight!  She is BEAUTIFUL!  And at a month early, weighed in at 6 lb 7 oz.  My precious son, when I asked how he was doing, said he was Proud, Happy, and Very Tired.  Parenthood is great.

SO HERE'S THE DEAL:

Labor Day is in September and we've been busy all summer.  Do we want to move the date from the 13th or is everyone cool with getting together on the 13th?  Unfortunately if that is the date, I can't come .. I will be working HARD.  So let's chat and figure it out.

 Love you, mean it!

Oh Janice - I am really envious of your trip to underland!     But so glad for you as well.  And congrats on the new baby!  So much good news!    

As for the date I am good for any week, so if we move it back a week - thats fine!  Hope everyone can respond soon so we can set the date.

Wow, you are just becoming so tiny. Congratulations. I am so proud. Moving the date would be great. Lets do it the week after, and I can get back on track again.

We have been meeting in Macadonia at the Winking Lizard Restaurant on Aroura Rd.  How far away are you?  Janice travels from Warren and Dayna from Canfield who both are 1 hour away.  Perhaps we could move it down closer to Akron once in awhile to have a few more be able to meet us!

Boy - I would love to meet you, but it takes me 2hr 15 min to get to Columbus on a good day, so I guess that is over 3 hr from Akron.  Both Dayna and Janice are coming from the east in the Youngstown, Warren area's.  Maybe at some OH conference we can get a big group to go and plan to meet then.  Till then we will be happy to support f rom afar!

I go to Columbus at least once every three months or so for meetings and would be happy to visit with you.  The next time I am coming is in the evening to pick up my sister at the airport.  I can always come earlier than I need to and visit you first!
