3rd Inconvenient Get Together another success
Just wanted to publically thank everyone who came for making the 3rd Inconvenient get together a really great time. I hope you all enjoyed yourselves, had a good laugh; were impressed by all our accomplishments, enjoyed the food, but mostly .. .made a few friends.
We agreed, because of the upcoming Holidays, the next get together will in January. Probably the 3rd Wednesday (the 20th). We discussed about doing the clothing swap at the next meeting. Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
As promised, it will be held in the Parsippany / Wayne area. So if anyone has some suggestions of establishments in these vicinities – let me know.
Butterfly618 mentioned making “membership" card for the next meeting. I found some information about membership cards, but can’t find how to do it. Does anyone know how to do this? If not, I will contact OH.
Thanks again everyone !!

I really regret missing the get together last night I had to drive past the restaurant on my way home from work (I HAD TO VOTE ) anyway I will be at the next one.I must say I really enjoyed the last get together I met so many nice people. Recently I met someone who will be having the surgery soon and wanted to attended the meeting ,but did not want to attend alone..So I want to say PLEASE don't let that stop you from coming to the get together you will meet new friends that understand want your going through beside I think most of us show up alone anyway.

I haven't made the get togethers yet but plan on making the next one. There is a great diner on route 46 in West Paterson NJ a few miles outside of Wayne called Park West diner which is very good. Here is the link.

I am looking forward to meeting everyone at the next get together.

When my support group had volunteer Angels to do hospital visitation I made similar cards and sold them for a small fee which helped cover the costs of goody bags we would make and give out at the visitation. I had a whole website designed to pick out a new tag every holiday or when you were ready to update it!
