How far are you from Chatham, NJ? Might be visiting a friend there - RosemarieT who used to post here. Let me know.
Sure would be great to get together for a coffee in a Mall - they do have Malls in Joisey?

I know nothing about that area of the country only that it's all considered the Northeast. My niece is graduating from high school on June 21, and I'm going to be up there for that, might be able to sneak in another day, if the dates are right.
Otherwise, anyone comming to Dallas?

Jiff, are you going to wear your boa? Or do you want to just go simply with your belly button ring?

Noranoranora and I are both gonna be there. I just have to get in touch with Rosemarie in Chatham (she's away right now) and see what she has scheduled. A hug and chick chat may be in our future. Maybe Saturday, June 1? We have to drive back on Sunday! Hmmmmm - better press my Chicken Purse.

THIS IS SOOOOOOO EXCITING,
I can't wait to see all you guys, of course you know I have to bring the bambino (if you don't mind), she's a good kid and if she's not I'll just pinch her.
Peach & Jiff, maybe I can meet you some where and follow you to where ever we are going to meet Ruthie ???? I'm not to familiar with that area, now take me in the other direction (paramus) and I'm at home there.
Love, Leens !!
I'm so excited I wanna met you all NOW...

Wait just a darn minute! This is one of the very few times I'm jealous of you Eastern gals! Deb, I guess this means you'll have to take a journey out to Colorado, pick up Sooner and other assorted chicks on the way and we'll have our own little hoe-down. How's that sound?

Until I saw the date you're going Ruthie, I ALMOST told dh that yes, I am going to visit my mom via NJ changeover then ATLANTA layover before hitting SC !! :p
Can't do it next weekend tho! Darn!!!
Chickadee-I've still got your printed out invite for this chubby little stressed out Tx chick! Room for one more?
DebKay-Trip to SC is still in the works for sometime this summer! Alot depends on Melissa and also mom/dads 50th anniversary is this year and trying to get my brother to put something together early (it's actually 10/1) so I can attend.
Ok-who's taking and posting the pics?
I'd love to be a part of that seating arrangement! :love:

I don't know where Easley is!!!!!! And I live here, does that tell you how far apart all our towns are???
Lexington is just outside Columbia, about 20 minutes from downtown.
Have a good visit!!

05-23-2002, 10:39 PM
Leenie! Of course we will meet you somewhere and you can follow us!!!
....and Chickadee :nono: there will be no hoe-in down without me!!!!
I have no pride...but you knew that!
Debkay, sweetie, the only way that I would see the jewels in my navel is if I stand in front of a mirror.....and stretch...but I ain't doin it unless I have a bag over my head! I want to go to Atlanta too...for you guys I would even sit thru...a well, baseball, ugh game!
once again, I have no pride!!!!
love,

ROFLMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!! speak for yourself!!!!!

there IS a good airport in newark. and many planes fly into there... just in case anyone gets any ideas...
and peachie.. i thought YOU were the one who was talking about a sapphire in your navel this evening... or was i hallucinating again??? low blood sugar???

(or a RLM, as us puter folk calls it!)
How fun! I hope you all can pull it off! It is so great to meet people that you have shared so much of yourselves with in cyberspace. I wish you all the best and I DO hope someone will take pics!!!

(I have met 4 people from an All My Children message board and I get together regularly with a couple of them that live close to me! It has been a blast!)

All I have to say is why wasn't I invited? Hmmmm? Don't get your feathers all stuck together, that weekend dh has a golf tournament for work to go to and I have to take care of our wee one. Perhaps more notice for next time?? I'd love a chick get together!
Ruthxxx

Hey Pooky - this is not an official Chick Meet. Nora and I are in a Garden Site and the rendezvous is primarily for that. At the moment, it may not even happen - some scheduling problems.
Pooky
05-24-2002, 09:46 AM
Aah Ruthie, I wasn't trying to be a pain in the butt, I just hope that we can all get together for an offical Chick Meet someday! :)
Ruthxxx
05-24-2002, 10:00 AM
I know, Pooky - I'd never accuse you of being a pain in the butt. One of these days we will meet on the 401 or #7. Do you ever wander this far east?
Chickadee
05-24-2002, 01:16 PM
Yo Janice,
The cabin is freshly cleaned, toilet's working and there's a fresh vase of lilacs in there. Just say the word and I'll fluff the pillows for you!
Peachie, let me get this straight. Are you saying that you're a hoe? Hmmm...
Hey chicks, I think we should start a tradition. The 3FC annual low-carb baseball stadium tour. First, we strap Jif to the top of a rented station wagon and then we drive to a (eek!) Yankees game and move east and/or south from there, all the while keeping Jif either on the car or in a stadium. I suppose we could even go into the Canadian regions, should they manage to keep their baseball teams! Whaddya think? I am practicing my delegating skills, so I think Peach should organize it.
Play Ball!

Don't forget the Rangers (even though I wouldn't pay to go watch them & I live here)
Ruthxxx

Noranoranora (who is wise for one so young) reminded me that another garden friend will be visiting Rosemarie at the same time as we are there and it would be kind of rude to take off on Saturday.
However, we don't need to rush back on Sunday so maybe Sunday morning?
Gee, this is harder to organize than a piss-up in a brewery, one of my Father's more charming expressions!
Pooky
05-24-2002, 06:58 PM
Ruth you're killing me! :lol:
Sorry, but I never get over to "the other side" very often, just passing through on the Via to my friend in Montreal--guess we shouldreally make a hook up point in TO, right?
noranoranora
05-25-2002, 07:28 PM
C'mon, chickies!! Let's meet on Sunday, June 2nd. I don't know any of you very well 'cept Ruthxxx but I sure would love to. Please, please, please, please, pleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaassssssse? :)))

Sunday is even better for me! Saturday is turning into a day of kidlet birthday parties and baseball! I am really looking forward to meeting you all and proving that I am not as bad as I sound....write!
chickadee....love the idea....Debkay, you ride shot gun and since Jiff is allergic to latex will just use duct tape....she likes duct tape!!!! :dizzy:

debkay reporting for duty!!! Duct tape in hand and ready to ride shot gun.
Chickadee, guess we have to attend, gulp, a Yankee's game.

Ruthxxx and I would love to meet any of you lovely chickies that can meet us in New Jersey on Sunday, June 2nd!! Come on and share a cup of cawfee with us before we head back to Canada on Sunday afternoon. :)))
Ruthxxx
05-27-2002, 08:16 AM
AND Rosemarie is going to join us. Rosemarie posted a few times quite some time ago but Life intervened! Rosemarie suggests the Short Hills Mall as a good place to meet.
I am getting so excited! Have my chicken purse pressed and ready to go. No metal bra as it would be too hard to drive 'cuz it would tangle in the steering wheel of Nora's new van! (I think she may let me drive it some of the time!)
jiffypop
05-27-2002, 10:48 AM
umm. not quite sure, but doesn't short hills mall open like at 11 am on sundays? will that interfere with your going-home schedule????
Ruthxxx
05-29-2002, 07:56 AM
Short Hills Mall is out. It doesn't open until noon. So the new plan is to meet at a diner New Providence. This will get Nora and me pointed in the right direction for going home. (It is so much easier in Canada where the sled dogs already know the route!)
I will PM Leens (and Gracie), Jiff and Peachie with the exact directions and time (maybe 10?) and also give them Rosemarie's phone number.
Anybody else coming!
