MemberHi Sisters!!
For those of you who can’t make it (boo), you will be in our hearts, and we will toast you (maybe even a few times, lol!) Anyway, if you feel comfortable, please feel free to private message me, or Silver (or B-trayed, Jeannette), etc–whoever you feel comfortable with–a skype address or cell phone number so we can include you in the party at some point. (Jeannette do you skype? I don’t, so hopefully you know what to do and have a web cam…). I also have an iphone 4 with facetime, so if you have that, let us know! 🙂 Otherwise, if you don’t feel comfortable sharing your info, be sure to go on SOS so we can stalk you and have a chatroll conversation! Just hoping to include as many sisters as possible, near or far!!

ParticipantWhat a GREAT idea ZG!! I was getting totally bummed by not being able to be there. I just bought a Mac so I could Skype with my son (although I am new to it LOL) and I also have an iPhone 4 for face time but I think skyping would be cooler. Although I’d probably have to lock myself in my daughters room for privacy!! Unless we Skype Friday night, when Dean is at SAA.
I’m PMing you now with my info 🙂
PS: You guys are gonna have to wear name tags or something because I won’t be able to remember everyone’s “real” names LOL

ParticipantIF I come, and it really is still a ‘maybe’ I’ll bring my video camera and put together a video cast for the site. How’s that?

ParticipantI want so much to come to the slumber party. I have been in hiding doing some deep inner work. Feeling better today. Feeling like I have a level of understanding about things. Not that the pain is gone, but it just is easier to manage with some clarity of thoughts as it relates to all of this mess.
There are too many fires going on around me at the moment to leave. I have the first mediation on Monday which has been the biggest drain on me both physically and mentally. My sister in law (yes my SA’s brothers wife) is flying in on Saturday to support me for the mediation meeting. She will stay for the week, and fly back on the Saturday that you will be together. So that combined with the fact that I do not know what I would do with all of my doggies, leaves me feeling like it was just not the right time for me to come. I am so happy that we might be able to skype or something like that. I will miss seeing and meeting you all in person. I love you all so much. You are so important to me. I know that you will all have so much fun.

ParticipantHello my great sisters!
I will be sending you lots of light from Canada, and it’s just fabulous to think we come this far together. How wonderful that a chunk of our motley crew will gather and embrace and laugh and cry and talk face to face. I know that one day I will have the chance to meet many of you. I just know it will be my turn too. All in the fullness of time.Everyone—travel safely, and hold us with you for a moment please—just maybe a quiet minute with a candle lit–say our names too, and know we are now a part of each other, and great things are coming of each risk we have taken to share, speak truth, receive truth, reach out, reveal our pictures, use our names, name our homes, and fall apart from time to time. And let’s raise a glass to the f-word which seems to suit so much of our discussion. And the new words Lexie has given us, like fucktard. We should start a lexicon for SA spouse/partners! Lexie will edit it.
Love you all so very much,
Diane.September 21, 2011 at 5:05 am #19000lexie
Participanthmmm… this needs a new post!
love you too!

ParticipantI will be there in spirit, mind, but not body. The energy from the sleep over will be so strong I will feel in in my heart. The moon and stars will be shining so brightly everyone will feEl renewed and fresh. The air will be crisp and there won’t be a fuctard in sight!
September 21, 2011 at 12:50 pm #19002jos1972
ParticipantOK – so how about we try to meet up at a specified time on skype? i am jo.e.southard … it would be fabulous to meet up – but dont forget the time difference! Between 9pm and midnight UK time on the saturday night would be great for me – we could join lots of us into the call? x will even have a glass of wine i hand!

ParticipantI gave ZG my Skype info but forgot to give my timezone – duh! I am on the east coast. Anytime is pretty much good for me. I already told Dean I’d be having some girl time with you guys =)
