singandsew 0 Posted September 17, 2007 Hi Sue, Definitely up for walking before group. What time and where? The mall? I think it's supposed to rain. Merrillee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sue11 0 Posted September 17, 2007 Hey...Auntie Phyl...just noticed you signature line, great verse, one of my favorites (obviously, since I have it in my signature too). We all need that strength from time to time!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wenjea 1 Posted September 17, 2007 I'm so bummed . . . .I was planning on going to the support group but my girls back-to-school night is on Monday and I need to meet their teachers. I'm hoping to make October 1'st even though I will just be getting back from a cruise that day. I will have to see how that goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wenjea 1 Posted September 17, 2007 Maybe I could meet you all for walking though . . . when and where? Mall sounds good if there is rain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singandsew 0 Posted September 17, 2007 How about we do the mall at 5:00? Does that sound good? Meet at Starbucks...I need my iced green tea with 2 splendas.....LOL Merrillee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wenjea 1 Posted September 17, 2007 That's a little early for me cuz I'm still picking up kids from after school sports and running them around. How about 5:30 at the mall. Sue - maybe you can bring Taylor here at 5pm and David can take them to soccer. If it's raining I think Anna will stay home and do homework instead. Do we really have to walk or can we just visit and catch up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coastlgrl 0 Posted September 17, 2007 Phyl - I had my surgery in Olympia, WA by Dr. Neal. He and his staff are awesome. I am anxious to get past the post op pain...and to start feeling human again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wenjea 1 Posted September 17, 2007 Coastgirl - glad you could join our little group! The post op pain does eventually go away and you will feel great! Take it easy and don't push yourself to hard. I just got back from a 2+ mile walk in the rain. I never would of done that before this surgery. It won't belong before you will be feeling like the rest of us. . . . happy to be banded!

coastlgrl 0 Posted September 17, 2007 Wenjea - thanks for the words of encouragement! It really helps keep the blues away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singandsew 0 Posted September 17, 2007 Sue and Wendy, 5:30 is fine with me.....and we don't have to walk if you don't want to. I might come earlier and get that part done myself, though. Merrillee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sue11 0 Posted September 17, 2007 Mer... My DH is going to do the 5:30 kid shuffle, so I'm free after I do the 4:00 kid drop-off. I can meet at 5:00, we can walk then meet Wendy at 5:30 if that works for you. We can carpool down to St Joes, though it might be better to park the cars in St Joe's valet rather than mall parking? Anybody else heading to St Joe's support group tonight? Want to meet to walk? Coastlgrl... Maybe I missed it, but when was your banding? Recovery may seem to drag a little, but in no time you'll look back & say "that wasn't so bad" Sue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singandsew 0 Posted September 17, 2007 Hey Sue, sounds good to me. I also have to hit Vitalady this afternoon after my fill.....and then JoAnn fabrics.....bummer (LOL)...to waste time so as to not go over the bridge and back, etc.....so, see you at 5:00.....If you want to meet earlier give me a call.
