Gruene Violets



Recommended Posts

Terry with the drive from Houston tI can up my flight to arrive in Houston at 9:29---which would allow for us to leave earlier...I just hated making you get out of bed any earlier--let me know which would be best. Same airline, same cost--just an earlier option.
Haydee will probably be taking that IAH group....might want to ask her too. How early do YOU have to get up to arrive in Houston by 9:30??? Good lawd! I'd just leave it the way it is. Michelle can browse around the airport for an hour waiting for you, I'm sure she wouldn't mind! Have Breakfast, get a little coffee, go tinkle, find your gate and BAM! Here you are!! Call Haydee who's waiting for you in the cell phone lot, meet her in passenger pick up and BAM! You're on your way to Gruene!! You're on the road and in Gruene by 3:30! Perfect!

Ok had a blast of energy, went to book the flight but I can't put that on my debit card at the moment. If this time next week the price isn't up and I'm still feeling ballsy, I'm in. I'll let you know :rolleyes2:

OK Terry---I will check with Haydee--I was just remembering you saying that traffic begins building by noon--which would put us right in it.

I can hang out and wait for Michelle or she can hang out and wait for me! LOL

I will be booking tomorrow----so will have a chance to check in with her. If it comes down to it, I can actually stay in Abq. the night before.....I have a free room coming. I had planned to use it if I got back too late, but when I looked at it, I found out I leave again the very next day! But since it is a bike trip, I just sit there!!!

Michelle - you didn't book yet did you?

I will most likely be flying in with Michelle, I'm leaving out of Balitmore but I am going the cheapest flight. should that be SA or Houston,- I don't care but the Houston flight would be in the same time as Michelle and the SA flight gets in about 11

Laura - you go girl, if I can do it so can you... i convince myself of this every day,

anyway - i'm going to work, can't book for another week, i'm tapped until then and no credit cards

Itinerary goes something like this....we can change it around as we wish!

Friday afternoon/evening - just hang out on the porch, eat dinner in Gruene, poke around, then go to the Tavern...basically whatever we feel like doin'. We might be kinda tired from all the travelling and want to just decompress a bit.

Saturday morning - go toobin' after breakfast. This can be a 2 or 4 hour float, whichever we prefer. Come in, get cleaned up, have lunch then go shopping in Gruene. Saturday night, go boot scootin' at the Gruene Hall (oldest dance hall in Texas)!

Sunday morning - have breakfast, pack up, check out by 11:00. We can hang out there or mosey on over to San Antonio. In San Antonio there is so much we can do we'll have to take a vote or something...mostly touring the Alamo and other cool historical neighborhoods and buildings, walk on the River, eat Tex-Mex in the Mercado and drink! Sunday night we could go on a ghost tour!! (Anyone brave enough?) Monday morning we'll have to find a nice place on the river for breakfast and enjoy some quiet time. Then it'll be time to start saying goodbye :rolleyes2: .

It all sounds great but remember that I can't book the air quite just yet... so my times *may* change...

Also, re: shower -- sorry, but I'm a "I NEED a shower every a.m." kinda gal... I'm not fussy about WHERE it is... but I do need one... so if I can just hop in one of yours, I'm good!... other than that, I'm completely laid back & ready to roll wherever ya'll say!

Yeah I am sayin it now, whatever size I am, I'm rockin with it all hangin out!

I don't be carin! woowoo

I would love to see the Alamo, and YES PLEASE PLEASE GHOST TOUR!! I *love* those things, and live NO WHERE NEAR ONE. I haven't been since Charleston, and it made me very happy.. I love ghost stuff.

Anyway.. As long as I get Tubin, Alamo, V's, some dranks, and POSSIBLY a ghost tour, I'm good to go.

I just found out I have to go to NY in February to meet with some customers. LE SIGH. Gonna have to get some more valium. But at least I'm going with another sales person, so I won't be havin to hold onto a stranger.. hah

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
