Title: for "the girls" - Friday night phone call and survey
Post by: nannettesea on April 04, 2006, 11:07:15 am
Hi, all-
How did everyone like the call last week?  How about the number of participants--okay, or too many?  TigerMaiden (sp?), I think we can all call in using the same phone number and access code as we did last week?  That's what I gathered from the website.

The cool thing about this conference call is we can do it whenever just by calling in and using the access call.  So if anyone wants to be spontaneous with a few others, that's possible.  You'll have long distance charges, though, if you aren't using free cell phone minutes.

Please post your feedback here.  Once I confirm with TigerMaiden, if you need the numbers again, send me a personal e-mail and I'll provide them.

Phyl, hope you are doing great!
Nan

I'm in, of course, but I think we're adding Denise to our mix.  I think Tigermaiden made the conference for up to 10 last week.

I thought the call was awesome--not too many at all!  I started to identify the voices pretty well. Can't wait till Friday nite!

Hi, gang-
Sorry to bow out tonite--been a rough day and a few anti-anxiety pills later...I'm going to hit the sack.

Kathleen (Gennysmom) is going to be the ringleader for the call.  I think this is the list of girls joining:

 Michelle
Suzanne
Cheryl
Denise
Deb

Sorry if I missed anyone--have a great chat, I'll be there next week, same time, same station!

Yea, sorry I didn't get you back via e-mail, I wanted to get off the computer and make sure the line really did work.  Since I have high class type internet at work, I still have the cheap old dial up at home.  I'm just thankful that I remembered the name of the website and that they gave me a number instantly.  Big Kudos to the free conference call site!!!!!!!   What a great thing!!!  Next week we'll give it a test run before the bewitching hour!!!!!

Batty, Matti, Deb, shoegirl.....a pleasure!!!  Hope we can have Phyl, Nan, and TigerMaiden back next week!  We missed you!

Suzanne...I did what Deb told me and it worked...pull up your frappr photo and click on it, and find the URL, highlight and copy it, then paste it in the profile area that asks for the photo URL.  I've been working on my frapper page tonight, and am finally getting the hang of it.

That's my little girl Fiona...she likes to attack the phone.  I'm her adoptive mom.  Her first mom passed away from cancer almost 3 years ago.

Big THANK YOU to Kathleen for getting us hooked up last night. I love the girls chat photo, it is priceless. Your girls are lucky to have such a great mom. I had a cockateil for many years, she was the sweetest little girl. got a mate for her because she started laying eggs, almost every other day. Able to hatch only one and it died. She loved to sit on my shoulder when I would blow dry my hair  and had her favorite little spot on the couch where she would hang out. She loved bbq chicken and beer. Miss her!

Enjoyed my evening talking to all of you. You are amazing women!

Missed you Nan, Phyl and Lori

Looking forward to next week

Suzanne - you have a beautiful family

Yea Deb!   Yea, it took me a little while this morning, but I had seen it done and knew I could do it.

Thanks Matti!  Fiona's a parrotlet.  She's very sweet!  She's sitting on my arm right now...she likes to try to stop me from typing.

The grandbabies call me Nanny Deb, but you may call me "Captain Nanny!"  Jimmy Buffett writes about a lady sea captain named Cleopatra who is 101 and sails around in the schooner that her father gave her for her 18th birthday in "A Salty Piece of Land."  Haven't read it yet, but I intend to this summer.

Post by: ppearl214 on April 09, 2006, 08:04:40 pm
I'll be your date for Fri night (instead of B.o.B)... I don't think the CB will mind.

Looking forward to speaking to the gang again... missed you all last week! :)

yup, we'll be on again, and this time the same number and code from last friday should still work.  I will send a confirmation on Thursday on this thread, and if it won't, I'll get another one set up and pass it on so we're good to go!  This works great for me as my other half works most Friday nights.  It's a great way to have fun, relax, and wind down from the week!

Kathleen,

Thanks sooooo much for organizing and helping us with this... the first call was a delight!  Informative, fun, fact-sharing, giggles, all-around what, I believe, many of us here need.  The support we can give each other here is amazing (and you ALL of certainly proven that to me, my family and friends) and since my CB is across the pond and my Friday nights are open, count me in, barring any further post-treatment issues. I'm there! :)
