Well I just got an email that my retreat was canceled, so I won't be
going to CA after all. I guess it's a good thing I held off getting my
plane ticket.
I'm mega disappointed as this was to be my celebration for hitting my
goal weight. Now I'll have to find something else to do.

Well, that's a durn shame. At least they let you know well in advance so you
can work on finding an alternative celebration. I don't suppose any similar
retreat is happening in your area?

Not at this point. I'm hoping that there might be an event in NYC while
I"m there. He is doing one in Hawaii in December, LOL...but I'll be
working hard on my musician friend's concert so that's not a possibility.

So sorry for the disappointment! I do hope something fun comes up soon.
You deserve that celebration.:)

Well, I'm still going to NYC in October as my cousins are coming from
England and I'm meeting up with them. So maybe there will be something I
could do there to celebrate as I should hit goal in late August or
September :)

who is still going strong :))))

bummer, kid.
just a couple of local-ish ideas offered, until something better comes
along--orcas island? anacortes and shopping? a san juan islands day trip?
a ferry ride to port townsend? a spirit of washington train ride, complete
with gourmet dinner and a mystery to solve ending at the st. michelle winery
and then back again? tenino and wolf haven? a broadway play or musical in
seattle?

Thanks, Kate. It's just that his music means so much to me that a whole
weekend of being able to sing with him would have been perfect. I'm
still hoping that he does a retreat somewhere else. And since I don't
have any family, I was looking forward to getting away for the
Thanksgiving holiday as I hate being alone on holidays. But, now that
I'm getting thinner, maybe I'll have a nice guy by Thanksgiving :) A man
actually flirted with me the other day at the "Y" :-)) I almost looked
behind me to see who he was talking to, LOL :)))
Thanks for the great suggestions. I think when I hit goal, I'll be in
the mood for some major shopping! :-)) I want to start putting money
aside now. I've been collecting all my change and then taking it to
Coinstar every couple of months. I then put that money in a jar to
splurge on something sexy when I hit goal :)) No more nurdy clothes for
me, LOL :)))

So, why not go anyway as a reward for hitting your goal weight?

I was kind of thinking of that, Gary, although if I did, I'd go down to
San Diego as I've always wanted to go to that zoo. And now that I've
lost weight, I can walk a lot more than I used to be able to :) Or
maybe I should just buy a bikini and go to Hawaii, LOL :-))))
