August meeting - 8/20/16 @ Rock Bottom

Hello Fan Force, the August meeting in Westminster is quickly approaching. Any preferences on time - 2pm vs. 3pm, etc?

 

2 PM, fo sure.

 

2 PM works for me

 

Alas, I won't be there as I will be camping. You city folk have fun!

 

I will also be out for this meeting. Family is in town.

 

My Supernatural group voted this day as our get together...:/

so more than likely i will not make it

 

Rest in Peace Kenny Baker. I think it would be nice if everyone wore an R2-D2 shirt to the meeting if you have one.

 

A topic of conversation is whether we want to continue our Star Wars Reads Day participation with Denver Public Library this October.

Alas, I will be working this weekend. Pour one our for ya homie.

 

Good to see everybody there as I made it after all. Great conversations and happy to see gra-co_o_hun back in town.

 

Hey guys! Notes are delayed. I apologize. My Mother was admitted to the hospital Sunday early morning. She was unresponsive at the time so I have had to be there to assist with care and orders. I will attempt to have them up tomorrow. Great meeting!

 

Oh no! Hopefully she feels better soon. Take the time you need as we totally understand. Just don't not post notes at all like that guy who "took notes" for the June meeting that never appeared...

 

OMG, is she okay? Are you okay? Do you need anything? Let us know if we can help you. ::

Notes can wait indefinitely. I mean, there was that one guy who never posted them at all.

 

The moment you have all been waiting for!

I didn't mean to keep you hanging QueenHighMistress It all got a little crazy so I didn't check in on the boards. She is being followed closely now and is stable. I will be visiting her again soon and she was able to go back to the nursing home. I appreciate you checking in! It has been a "character building" couple of weeks.

 

Great job with the minutes as always Auttybot!

 

Glad she is stable. Holler if you need anything.
