So nice to see your name pop back up on the forum. I'm sorry to hear about being faced w/a long distance relationship. Hang in there and of course we'll keep you company online </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19997 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 03:01:57 +0000 Nicole 19997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:) OK...lets wait to hear from Shiny, then we'll move the discussion to email. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19996 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 03:01:06 +0000 Tanya 19996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for clarifying this Nicole. In general, I could get away a few hours from the lab if I know about it and plan it in advance, on any day other than Friday - that's when we have group meetings. Oh, and I'll be out of town town from Sept 14th-18th - going to NM again. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19994 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 02:57:04 +0000 Nicole 19994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I think it would be easier for me when the kids are back in school. It takes me about an hour to get into Boston, and I'd want to give myself ample time to get back home to pick them up on time. (WIth my luck I'd get stuck in traffic or lost!) But I could definitely head into town, meet you for a few hours before I have to head back home.</p> <p>Shiny, would you be up for this? and Tanya, would you be able to get out of the lab for a few hours during the day? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19992 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 02:49:13 +0000 Patience 19992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, I thought I posted-- not sure what happened. I was going to say the same as San. This forum is not the same without you. I'm going to go look at your new purchases now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19990 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 02:25:25 +0000 Tanya 19990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all so very much! I am glad to have you guys! You make me feel so appreciated *blushing*</p> <p>Nicole, I will have a roommate, but she will be only moving in somewhere mid-October, so I'll be alone for entire two months. I couldn't even sleep last night- the first night alone, I was too scared :(</p> <p>Second attempt at Boston Tea Party sounds great. I am not sure I understand this correctly, so forgive me for asking a silly question: would before OR after your kids go to school work for you? Looking forward to that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19987 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 02:13:01 +0000 marianne 19987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, I, too, missed your outfits and insightful comments. Great to have you back! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19963 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 00:53:01 +0000 Julie 19963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya - welcome back. I too was missing your wonderful posts with all your gorgeous outfits </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19962 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 00:51:45 +0000 Nicole 19962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Big hug Tanya....I hope you're keeping yourself occupied while you adjust to this new arrangement. Will you be getting a roommate?</p> <p>Glad you are back in Boston though. I'd still like to reschedule the Boston Tea Party. Kids go back to school September 2nd. Maybe we can meet in the daytime? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19931 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 23:31:57 +0000 shell 19931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>welcome back i must admit, it was strange not having the lovely outfits of tanya every couple days.</p> <p>glad you're back im sure it's gonna be hard not having your bf around as much anymore, but don't let your bank account suffer </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19929 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 23:31:06 +0000 Kyle 19929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I kept looking for your posts!

I hope you had a good time in NM. I'm sorry to hear altitude adjustment cut into your plans. Is the air terribly dry there? I found Arizona difficult to tolerate for this reason (plus blazing sun). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19887 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 18:40:49 +0000 Julia 19887@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welcome back Tanya! Can't wait to see your new stuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19861 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 15:55:28 +0000 Anonymous 19861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We really missed you here. It just wasn't the same without you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19858 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 15:51:03 +0000 Becky 19858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, it's *so* nice to have you back! I'm glad you had an enjoyable time, though too bad about the altitude effects. It does take a while to adjust. I know long-distance relationships are tough...Greg and I did that for 3 years before getting married. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19850 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 15:01:44 +0000 Tanya 19850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much Angie &#38; Dani. I truly appreciate it. And thanks for keeping an eye on my purchases. In fact, I'll have a bunch to post tonight- I ordered them online and they should have arrived to my work place while I was away.</p> <p>Angie, we are going to see each other roughly once a month. The plan is that one month I fly there, the next month he comes here and we keep switching. The big trouble is that there's no direct flight so with all the connections one pretty much ends up spending a whole day traveling one way, that's two full days total. I'll be flying there again in five weeks in September, and he's supposed to come here in October for my b-day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19834 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 14:31:07 +0000 Dani 19834@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Tanya, glad to have you back! So glad to hear you had a nice time. </p> <p>I'm sorry you're having to deal with the adjustment to a long distance relationship. It is tough, but it can be done. We'll keep an eye on your upcoming purchases for you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19832 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 14:24:00 +0000 Angie 19832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We missed you too, Tanya. Fab to have you back! Hope you had a smashing anniversary dinner and a great spa holiday. Thanks for the NM update. </p> <p>I’m sorry you’re sad. Long distance relationships are hard. How often will you see your sweetie? When will you be re-united? </p> <p>We’ll keep a loving eye on you. Know that you are never alone when you’re at your computer </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/back-from-nm#post-19823 Mon, 11 Aug 2008 13:59:24 +0000 Tanya 19823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello everyone, I have just come back! I have missed you all a lot! I did not have time to write anything, though I did drop in from time to time for a quick read.</p> <p>NM vacation was nice, the nature was incredible. As a downside, the altitude effects were so strong that we were tired all the time and haven't done even half of the things we have planned to. The people there are incredibly nice.</p> <p>I am on my own now, my BF stayed there. This is going to be a very. very difficult adjustment for me. I usually tend to deal with these things by shopping, so I foresee a lot of it in my near future. Please be very honest and do not let me keep anything that's less than 8 ( I love the new CRS).</p> <p>Fashion in NM was nothing to write about, I do not think people worry about it too much( or at all). Just your typical sub-casual, gear like style: capris/shorts with tees/tank tops and flip-flops, and occasional ill fitting sundress. Santa Fe was a little more upscale, but it was overload of logos and designer items without much thought put into it. And boho style was predominant, not my cup of tea. I did see an incredibly stylish French family on the plane, they had on perfect casual outfits. Th while family- parents and three kids ( one girl and two boys), age 11-16- had on converses in various colors , nice dark straight leg jeans, cool tops and great haircuts. I couldn't stop checking them out </p>
