I work by the Omni Hotel on Woodway - but I can go in and around the area - they aren't really strict at work!

If you all can meet for an early lunch on a Saturday - you might enjoy that more! When we met here in San Antonio we met at the spaghetti warehouse at 11 (knowing it would be empty - and at first we didn't know how many were coming). We ended up chatting for um, like, what was it ladies - 3 hours? It was wonderful putting faces with names.

Gina's suggestion is good. Perhaps at a Cafe Express (where they don't care how long you stay as long as you get a parking space and it doesn't matter how many people show up)?

After lunch those of us who could went on to see the missions and alamo as Chrissy B. from Australia had chosen SA as a stop on her world tour! We ended up spending the entire day together.

I love cafe express. The weekend would give us more time to chat - so just let me know when and I will try to make it!

Gina is so right. What a memorable day it was last October 1st. The Spaghetti Warehouse was great and the rest of the day was even better.

I really enjoyed my visit with y'all thats for sure!!!
BTW i had a ct scan today, yes in san antonio, but i had no one home for my kids so i had to drop them off at school, i got to SA only 10 mins before my appointment. I grabbed a quick bite at taco bell, then headed home with only an hr before picking up the kids from school. I love to talk so in no way shpe or form would i have made it.
Interesting they were having a NIOSA debate on the news wether its said Ny-oh-sa or Nee-oh-sa. Never heard it the second way but apparently they say thats the proper way which makes sense. Night in old san antonio, the "I" in the word in makes the eh sound not the long I sound... anyhow LOL

I grew up in SA - spent 30 years there and I never heard it pronounced Nee-oh-sa. It always had been Ny-oh-sa.

That Oct was a great time. I so enjoyed spending the day with all the ladies and putting names to faces. Hopefully we can do it again.

When I lived in SA, I always heard it pronounced with a long i.

Yep, the from out of town tv anchors started that crap! lol - while trying to read teleprompters - hehehehe it's always been NIGH-OH-SA to me!

Gina- from what the good morning SA show said was that the commitee on something or other (who runs NIOSA) pronounce it the way no one else does LOL
I personally feel some pompous person thought it'd sound fancier lol then started a debate. because from looking at it NIOSA looks like it'd be pronounced Nigh-oh-sa. Lets bring it back to elementary pronunciation if there are 2 vowels the first will say its name

TexasRose - not to worry. I don't think anyone could kill a Texas thread.

Hi TexasRose - I can't complain. Two months on tamoxifen and still getting periods and no hot flashes and no side effects. I thank God daily. Mentally and emotionally not so good, a lot of crap was going down a year ago right now that I did not know about that came to light in June and that's when my world fell apart.....but moving to Texas will help that, and I'm still on track to do that between I'm hoping October and Feb. Will know more once I have my first 3D mammogram and my first PET scan.
It's in the 90s here, but that's normal for May. We've already hit 100 twice. What's it like where you all are?
And MinusTwo, AMEN!

hey cherilyn- are you going to cancer treatment centers of america over there in goodyear?
0 -
No........that's over an hour away from me on the other side of Phoenix. I live in/around Scottsdale and there are a ton of cancer centers here. I think that's why they put CTCA out there because the west side lacks in a lot of things.
I'm lucky I live where I do, there are two Mayo hospitals within 10-30 min of me and the pioneering radiation oncologist who did my bracytherapy, so I sure can't complain. I know going to Texas there are tons of great healthcare places all over the state, so I know moving won't be an issue for me medically. Thank God

Texasrose, I live in Fountain Hills which is the suburb next door to North Scottsdale. I work in Glendale which is 51 miles one way and Goodyear is past that. So I'm just far :-)
PV Mall is about 25 min west of me. I pass there on my way to the church I sing in in Phoenix. Hung out there in high school as I went to high school in Scottsdale.
