Victor Martinez - 07 Nov 2004 23:41 GMT I'm just catching up, I'm gone for 3 days and y'all post over 600 messages! Anyhow, thanks for all those who have offered to help with Bridget's plane ticket, I'm happy to announce we have enough money to buy it. I just emailed her asking to confirm the dates, as soon as she does, I'll purchase the ticket. :) Thanks again everybody, I truly believe that what goes around, comes around, so ya'll have a whole lot of good karma coming your way!

That's wonderful news, Victor. I didn't contribute money, but I will contribute purrs and best wishes for a non-eventful journey. So glad Bridget will be able to go to her sister.

Bridget - 08 Nov 2004 15:17 GMT I got the e-ticket. I think my niece is more excited than my sister is. Pretty cool since she has only seen me a few times in her short life. Someone mentioned a rental car - not necessary. I will have the use of my sister's vehicle while I'm there and I don't really have any place to go besides her house.
Besides, I am so thankful for the plane ticket I don't know what to do. I am just looking at it this morning kind of unbelieving. Thank you everyone who contributed to the plane ticket. I really appreciate it. Thank you Victor for organizing it.
With absolute love, Bridget

I received an e-mail from Bridget, wherein she accepted my offer to pick her up at the Houston airport and drive her to her sisters place, so it looks as if everything is just about in order.
Hey Victor and CatNipped, you know that upcoming, but unscheduled as yet r.p.c.a.'ers Houston get together idea we've been tossing around? Are y'all thinking what I'm thinking?

Anyhow, thanks for all those who have offered to help with [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > -bonbon That would just be the icing on the cake for my trip if something like that happened. My ticket is for me to leave Indiana on the 20th of November and come back on the 1st of December. I am slated to cook Thanksgiving dinner, so as long as it doesn't interfere with that, I would love it.
I will be emailing you Bonnie to let you know about dates and times more specific to my flight.
Bridget <squeal> an RPCA get together possibility <thud> Way too much excitement for one day.

I would love to, but it's going to be hard for me. We just returned from a trip and we're going to be most of Thanksgiving week out of town. Plus my project at work is reaching a critical point, I'm not sure if I could take off... there's always the weekend though... let's talk it over. How about the weekend after turkey day?

How > about the weekend after turkey day? That would be perfect for DH and me! We have a huge house and lots of toys for both grown-ups and kids. I'd like to invite Bonbon and spouse (and any kids??), Victor and Tom, Bridget, Bridget's sister, and Bridget's sister's family to come over and hang out. Anyone else in the Houston area at the time - Annie & family??
Remeber to bring your swim suits so you can go hot-tubbing (it's great relaxation after the hectic holidays and/or a long drive). How is 6-ish? We can have a pot-luck dinner of left-overs and snacks. We have lots of board games, DVDs (and DH's second love after me, a 63" TV), etc. but if you have any favorites feel free to bring them.
Victor, if you and Tom need a place to stay the night, we have plenty of room, and you're very welcome - Annie, you and your family are too.
Anyone who is interested, email me for my addy and phone numbers - lcrews (at) houston (dot) rr (dot) com.
Hugs,

> Hugs, > CatNipped It sounds like a great time. We used to have game nights with board games, but haven't had one for a long time. That weekend might work, but we will have our boat in a boat parade the next weekend, and I don't know how the decorating will go. It's likely I'll still be working full-time and not around a lot during weekdays to help Jim decorate it. The boat parade is part of the Toys for Tots campaign. Our neighborhood is on a system of canals. Some people have parties, and the admission to the party is a toy. Designated boats go to the decks and yards where the people have the toys ready to take onboard and then deliver to a couple of bigger boats. We did it last year (our first year) and our parade collected 3,800 toys. The next morning it took us nearly an hour to unload the toys and hand them along a line of people from the dock to the parking lot. Lots of work, but lots of fun, too. Annie

CatNipped - 10 Nov 2004 03:07 GMT Annie and Victor - we can certainly do it again when you can make it if you can't do it that Saturday- it's not an all or nothing deal. Bridget and Bonbon, we can still do the Saturday after Thanksgiving to meet while Bridget is in town, and then Bonbon you can come over again when Victor and/or Annie can make it (from what I understand you're practically around the corner from me). Any or all of you are welcome any time you're in the neighborhood.

I'll bring our digital camera and we can post pics as we take them.
How does a big homemade turkey pot pie sound? I'll also bring dessert. (for the record......when it comes to meat, I'm terribly picky about unidentifiable's, squishy, or squiggly, so my pot pies are _clean_) :)
Let me know.

(DH and I used to live right off of Fry Road and I-10 (Katy Freeway) - the exit just east of Mason Road.) For others benefit, Houston is a *very* sprawled out city. Living in Houston is a lot like living in L.A. - anywhere you want to go is a loooooong commute with loooooots of traffic!! ;>
Turkey pot pie sounds delicious! Give me a call beforehand and we can coordinate.

CatNipped - 10 Nov 2004 18:49 GMT Yep, that's still a bit west of us, but lots closer than Bonbon. Next time you're visiting the in-laws you and Tom are very welcome to drop by and hang out, hot-tub, whatever! If you still have our addy, look us both up on Yahoo! maps (http://maps.yahoo.com/).

I'd really like to be able to meet Bridget, as well as the rest of you. If I don't get up there, please consider me there in spirit, anyway. Annie

How > about the weekend after turkey day? The weekend after sounds good to me. My sister is certain to have to be working, so I will just be at her apartment sitting around. And, that would be enough time, that I would probably think a break from my sister would be a good idea for a bit. I love her to death, but, as in all family members, a little distance is a good idea. Oh Man, I can't wait to see her!
Bridget - who thinks a 'we met' party in Houston sounds like a GRAND idea

That is so sweet of you, Victor, and everyone who helped. I wish I was in a position to, but instead, I'll just send good purrs for a safe and good trip.
