NE ANA Forum Gang brunch -- April 29th at Maxwell's?
« on: January 22, 2007, 12:39:18 pm »
Hi all,

Well, I do believe it's that time again to start our plan of attack at Maxwell's again! (Do you think Bill and the Omelet dude can handle us again?  Jane, which type bloody mary's are we going for?)

So, since we are approaching end January and we know Feb is tough (gawd forbid it snows), was thinking March. I know folks usually have things planned in advance, so figured I'd tickle folks on it now.

...and... if anyone is journeying to this fair corner of the country in March, oh, plu-eeeeeze let us know!  We'd LOVE to have you join us!


So, if you all have pre-set dates on your calendar for March, please advise now if:

1. What dates do not work
2. What dates do work
3. If you would like to attend?
4.  Does Maxwell's in Worcester work for you or if you want to change venue

Looking forward to the "Good Coast" brunch again all!  Can't wait to see you all!

Phyl

Count me in yet again for the third good coast gathering!! The only Sunday as of right now that doesn't work for me is the first Sunday in March.  Here's to torturing the omelet guy and seeing a great group of people!
Thanks Phyl, you are truly an amazing social director,
Your partner in a bloody mary,

So far I got's no weekend plans in March excepting the 31st (Easter Egg Hunt at my son's preschool!).  If we pick a date I can write it in and schedule everything else around that.   ;D

Hi Phyl and gang,

I just signed up for Florida for a week, so the only Sunday not available is Mar 18, but can do any other. Hope to see you all. Take care,

Sue

Thanks all!  Thrilled to see some wonderful, familiar faces replying... and looking forward to more of the new AN forum gang joining as well.

Will track the dates noted thus far so we can narrow this down.

That's right Mary, I won't be available until late April. Did you see that note I left you on Dr. Barker on the other thread?

This has been a long, hard month and I'm physically and emotionally drained right now.  Nothing at all related to the AN, though.  But my boys are great, and give me reasons to smile every day.

I replied in the other thread about Dr. Barker (http://anausa.org/forum/index.php?topic=2945.0). 

Take care!

Thank you!! And a big thank you to everyone who has been so supportive over the last few weeks.  I'm taking the entire family back down to MD this weekend to see my mom - it'll be good for all of us to spend time together.

Though I need to remember to print off the conference call info so I can get there tomorrow night still...

*hip-check bump*  ow! :'(

Ok, folks, it's that time! Please re-confirm what works! I have an out of town guest during the weekend of April 15, so that day is not good for me.. any other is fine.
