My friend Marlene and I started our support group * Little by Little*  almost 3 years ago...We have a great group of members, and we work hard at bringing new topics, ideas, and such to our meetings...We started the New year out with a fun filled meeting...Our meeting started with everyone doing exercises to an oldie but goldie song...We handed out horns for everyone to blow while exercising...Just something to add some laughter and fun to the exercises...

We gave a short 5 minute talk on the fruit Clementines, and even handed out some for everyone to snack on...We discussed our old and new business, as usual...Our 3rd year anniversary is coming up in May, so we are working hard to make it a great evening for everyone...We are planning on doing a scavenger hunt in the basement of the church where we meet...We will form groups and everyone will be given hints to where they will try to locate certain items such as recipes, cook books, healthy snacks, magazines, cooking utensils and etc...Well at least thats what we have in our thoughts so far...We have a member, Janett who will sing for us...She has such a beautiful voice...Wayne is going to write a few new poems to recite for us...We will have a healthy carry-in that night...If anyone has any ideas on things to do at our party, please feel free to share them with me...

Anyways, back to our meeting...We had a really nice door prize, which was a big basket full of goodies including a George Foreman grill, hot pads, jars of seasoning...Marlene and I did a skit about our New Years Resolutions...We dress up and call ourselves * The Wishy Washy Women*...We wore funky looking aprons, glasses, bonnets...Our skit started out with us joining their support group...We had some funny Resolutions, and everyone seemed to get a good laugh out of them...

We closed the meeting and then had a surprise birthday party for Megan, who is Marlenes daughter...She just turned 10...We did this to thank her for all that she does for our group...She helps the members carry their things up and down the steps, she also helps set up tables and helps to decorate for parties and etc...She also hands out print out sheets, slips for door prizes...She will even stand at the door upstairs to greet people/ and new visitors...She has been a true blessing to our group...

Such a wonderful meeting me had...Just wanted to share it with everyone here on OH...If you happen to live in the Greenville/Troy/Piqua/Dayton area and would like to join our group, please feel free to message me for more details...Tammy

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only TRUE FRIENDS will leave footprints in your heart...And may that friendship have such a ONENESS that when one weeps the other will taste salt...Friends are like balloons ; once you let them go you can't get them back....So I'm going to tie you to my heart so I never lose you.
