JoBParticipantThe first women of a certain age meet-up sparked friendships that weathered the test of presidential elections :)
But a lot of new women have joined the forum since then…
Anyone interested in a breakfast meet-up
at Luna Park Cafe Sat Dec 10 9AM ?

goodgracesParticipantMinimum age? :-)

charlabobParticipantIf you think you’re of a certain age, come — after that it’s pretty self-selecting.

transplantellaParticipant*some* women-of-a-certain-age nevah EVAH get up on Saturdays before noon. ;-)

charlabobParticipantGood point, transplentella — sign me up for the sleep in on Saturday morning men welcome subgroup. I think we need a calendar master.

JoBParticipantyou can’t please all of the people all of the time:)
transplantella… I don’t know about you..
but Saturday morning breakfast was all i could squeeze into my pre-holiday schedule…
i can’t think of a better way to start the day than among my not always so politically correct female friends ;->

DBPMemberIf a man were in charge of this group, everything would have been arranged by now.
Just sayin’ . . .

JanSParticipantDBP…is that because you guys don’t have lives?
December 6, 2011 at 3:56 am #742218
KevinParticipantRight on – DBP! I would come in drag just to show em that it is no big deal! What can be so difficult about a 9AM “panacke breakfast?” And “charlabbob” says that men are OK.
BDP – lets think about carpooling?

kootchmanMembertransplantella… save one leg … one before and one after…
December 6, 2011 at 9:41 am #742220
JanSParticipantAnd…you guys want to join the mom’s group? Or the knitters group? WTF? Do you really feel all that deprived?
December 6, 2011 at 2:37 pm #742221
TDeParticipant“If a man were in charge of this group, everything would have been arranged by now.
Just sayin’ . . .”
But gosh, there doesn’t seem to be a man in charge nor have any of the forum guys tried to plan anything at all for themselves. Come on, how about a “forum guys” breakfast or drink fest or whatever? Should be pretty easy for the men to plan, right?

JoBParticipanti don’t know how a simple breakfast meetup for a bunch of somewhat older women has become a male bashing event?
heck.. if we had known it was this easy to get male attention..
we would be scheduling weekly breakfasts with a big MEN NOT ALLOWED sign on the table.
get a grip guys…
none of us will be comparing the size of our …
you can fill in the blanks.
as for this attention getting ploy… i only
wish this would work at department stores where i am still somehow invisible.. even with a wad of cash in my fist :(
yup.. that’s the sort of thing that concerns women of a certain age ..
that and world peace :)
I am going to go in and ask the nice folks at Luna if they will save the booth for us…
and i am going to show up at Luna this saturday at 9 AM…
probably not wearing a pixie hat or anything
though my toenails are painted a shade that would do Morticia Adams proud…
and have breakfast..
hopefully with both old and new friends.
there! how is that for decisive?

SueParticipantI think I can actually make this. I’m probably younger than one would assume is a “certain age” but my knee injury makes me feel about 120 right now, so I’ll fit right in. :)
Jan, are you going? Do you need a lift?
December 6, 2011 at 8:54 pm #742224
FranciParticipantSaturday works for me. See you at 9:00. Franci
December 6, 2011 at 10:49 pm #742225
JanSParticipantI am going…lift is not decided yet ..
December 6, 2011 at 11:21 pm #742226
SueParticipantWell, Jan, you know where to find me if you need me. :)

JoBParticipantDecember 7, 2011 at 6:01 am #742228
smyParticipantPlanning on being there. A little pint-sized furryfoster is coming in to my home around the same time, so I can’t commit for certain until last minute. Sorry, but that one comes first.
Wait…we’re going to just enjoy a ladies breakfast right? So I can show up bra-less in sweats and big sweater, ready to devour some fine hashbrowns and more coffe than I should these days, perhaps talk about last week’s mammography or other topics the ladies bring up and just settle in for some good chatting?
This sounds like a guy’s worst nightmare…and good time for meeting new folks. Goodstuff.
December 7, 2011 at 7:07 am #742229
JanSParticipantsmy. that’s the plan. If guys show up, they can sit at their own table, and have their own conversation. We’re not stopping them. But, yes, if they are truly into what we’ll be talking about, well, I’m not sure what to say…maybe we should just record it for posterity – lol…

wrenMemberHello ladies of a certain age! Sue is that you? It is Wren. HOw the heck are you? Looks like a lively conversation. I got locked out of the blog for a few days and couldn’t log in.
the meet up sounds great. I confess I am not an early morning person and I am also getting ready for a party on Sunday but I will try to stop by.
I can get a bit introverted on occssion so if you see a woman wearing a black down jacket and purple that looks a little hesitant – it is probably me!
December 7, 2011 at 8:37 pm #742231
SueParticipantYes, Wren … it’s Sue from church. :) Hope we’ll see you Saturday!
December 8, 2011 at 7:26 pm #742232
JoBParticipantwomen of a certain age are self selecting
if you think you have reached the age where speaking your mind is more important than checking your reflection.. at any age
you could be one of us
December 9, 2011 at 3:13 pm #742233
sydneyMemberHi, I’d like to go. I didn’t hear about the first one or I couldn’t come. What can I say, I don’t remember….I am of a certain age, after all!
I have no idea what anyone else looks like, so I’ll be the lost-looking redhead.
December 9, 2011 at 4:02 pm #742234
JoBParticipantsydeny…
i used to be a redhead…
now i am more a golden grey…
i am going to try for the corner booth
but if not i will make sure the staff knows were to find us..
i’d put a ladies only sign on the table
but I fear it only draws unwanted male attention ;->
