Hi Faith!

I'm glad you'll be there...looking forward to meeting you.  Dallas is going to be a very fun event...we'll have main stage speakers, breakout sessions and the meet and greet on Friday and the social event on Saturday...I expect the Dallas fashion show to be something to behold! 

See you there!
Kim

I am also VERY excited about the conference in Dallas. Since I moved from TX to AL at 7 mos out, the stress of my layoff, new job and subsequent move, has made it very difficult for me to stay on track and mind my p's and q's. (Dr. Robert (Davis) is going to have my head on Monday when I go for my 1year check up.)  I miss my OH buddies and need their support so VERY much.  I was planning on going to ATL, til I heard that y'all had added Dallas to the roster. However, I knew it wouldn't be the same, because my TX peeps wouldn't be there.  So what I'm trying to say, is Thanks OH, thanks for setting up this conference in TX.  I think it'll be a lifesaver for me!!!

Hugs, Mari

Just the fact that you get to room with ME will make it all worthwhile!!

uhhh.. yeah, HELLO, and who am I??????

can't wait!

I'm not too sure -- WHO ARE YOU???  We're gonna have a BLAST!  I can't wait! 

Hugs, M

Wow!  We can tell by the amount of tickets sold that Dallas wants an event...this is going to be a very fun time for all of us!  I can hardly wait.  It's my anniversary weekend, and my husband is coming, so we're ready to party! Let's get another big group of people to come!

I'll be in touch!
Kim

Amen !!!!   We are working on getting more to come Kim.   We want a HUGE turnout so that OH will come back to Dallas !!!!
