Looking for Bandsters in NW Houston

HI All,

I live on the northwest side of Houston and I am looking for people who might want to start a support group. I know that I could certainly use it right now! I am at a plateau and need some encouragement!

I am around the Jersey Village area, and you know there is a Starbucks around every corner...LOL That sounds like a good place to start....

Please let me know if anyone would be interested.

Sharon

Sharon, I'm not familiar with Jersey Village. Is that anywhere near Spring/The Woodlands? If so, there is a meeting once a month at the Memorial Herrman Hospital in The Woodlands that I can send you info on. Also, a group of us in/near The Woodlands have just started meeting once/month on a Saturday at the Starbucks in the Panther Creek Village which I can send you info on too if you're interested.

Hope that helps. -Rachel

Jersey Village is around 290 and the Beltway, so it would take me about 30 minutes for me to get to the Woodlands. Guess it would depend on when you guys meet. During the week is out of the question! I might be able to do a weekend though.

Thanks!

Sharon

I'm in Spring now, but am moving to Huffmeister and 290 in a couple of months. I worked in Jersey Village for about a year, though.

I'd love to meet up! There is the Starbucks on 290 and (oh, lost it - is it Jones?) Across from the Exxon.

Rachel,
I met you at the last one in March...when is the next get together? I enjoyed the last one.

Feel free to hit me up again when you move off 290. And you are correct, the Starbucks is on Jones road! :)

I'm in Northwest Houston

I live in Fairfield (290 and Mason Rd). I'd be happy to meet sometime. I know there's a Starbucks at Jones/290, and there's one here at Spring Cypress/290. Do you know of any others that are halfway between us?

I'm in Hockley - way out on 290. Starbucks at 290 & Jones sounds great.

Hello

Another bander in NW Houston - in the Klein area of Spring. This is certainly a strange journey, a group of people going through the same thing would be great to talk to.

Hi!
I'm in Katy...more west than northwest...but I might be interested in some get-togethers too. I'm due to be banded on 8/4.

Hi Sharon. I just found this website and was pleased to find you blog. I too live in the same area. Are you aware North Cypress Hospital has a new support group? I attended my first meeting this morning and could kick myself for not inquiring earlier. It seems they have a lot of good "up-beat" people.

I would love to get together, too! Good Luck!
