Hey, Folks -- I was wondering if there was any though being given to another SF meet-up? I missed the last one so I was hoping there was a desire to get together again. Any interest?

Hi Katie: Oh, I am so sorry that a low blood sugar kept you from our little gathering! Well, that just means we'll need to do another one. And bring all the GFs. Blush Wine Bar is awesome, BTW.

Well, ya gotta start somewhere, and three's as good a number as any!
Unsure about June, the GF's schedule keeps changing. If this one holds, we'll be able to do long-weekend type trips, and one of the first would be SF as one of her sons lives there. I'll keep watching the boards to see what y'all are up to...

Hey all,
SO sorry I couldn't make it :(
I had a last minute insane blood sugar crash and fell asleep after I treated it. I'm super bummed I missed out meeting you all. I'd love to attend another one whenever people can get together next!
And my GF Kiran would totally be into that support group! :)

Hi Vicki: It was a small group, just Emily, her GF Katarina, and me. Emily says that Brande needs to come next time so Brande and Katarina can form a support group :) Unfortunately Katie didn't show. But we sure had fun! Will you be out here towards the end of June? It would be great to get together.

So... how'd the meet go?? If y'all have one in June, I may be in the neighborhood!

I'll be there, too! Looking forward to it.....

Hey all,
Reminder: those of us in the SF Bay Area are meeting at Blush Wine Bar, THIS SATURDAY at 3pm!
So far I've only heard from a couple takers, and it would be great to have a table's-forth of us in attendance. Good drinks, good snacky food. I'm really looking forward to meeting folks offline!

Powerful! Thanks for the heads-up, Judith!
