Had email and computer issues and unable to log on under my old Displayed Name of Lisa in Florida. Not a problem though, I like the new name!

I have so missed my daily fix of OCF. Couldn't get on the forums and now I can get caught up with everything. Updated my profile and the picture was taken last week, you barely see the scar from the dissectomy these days.

Back in business!
Sincerely,
Lisa

Yay, welcome back!
p.s.,Couldn't get the picture to come up, try changing the file name to read "chjris.jpeg" without the _file on the end and reentering it, see if it will show up on the board. (I had to fiddle with mine to get it to work, and that worked)

Hey Lisa,
Great to hear from you! I'll be in Orlando Jan 5th-8th at the FCC Cheerleading Nationals. I'm bringing my High School Varsity coed team. How close are you to Orlando? This comp isn't the typical All star comp, it's a Christian based competition, but it's one of the nicest I've been to.
Let me know how far away you are, maybe we can hook up for lunch or something.

One third of tongue removed 10-4-07. 5-23-08 chemo started for tumor behind swallowing passage, Our good friend and much loved OCF member Minnie has been lost to the disease (RIP 10-29-08).

Lunch, Smunch... this former cheer mom/coach wants to see some competition! I am about 30 minutes from the convention center and would love to see your team take the floor.

We will DEFINITELY hook up!
