Always "interesting" when they bring someone home for the first time. ;)

Better coordination would have been good.
DD didn't decide to fly home until Thanksgiving ...because of the big snow storm. Glad she is now because it is going to snow a LOT in the mountains tonight and tomorrow.
She doesn't get to stay long because of work, so she is coming before DS and then leaves Tues.
But then she is coming back the 4th for a test she has to take at one of the universities :rolleyes: and so, that is why all the trips to the airport.

Oh well, parents do what they have to do!!!

This DS is 29, and has bought his first home, a condo, in New Orleans. Tonight he called and said that he and Mimi will each bring an extra "extra large" suitcase, so could we please bring some stuff that he still has at home, so he can stuff whatever he can into the suitcases. DH is an absolute rock for me, he helped organize DH's stuff, including a huge hammock, hand crafted in Venezuela for our DS when he worked there, and so tomorrow, we'll get everything we can in our rented van. I hope we'll get it all in, including our 2 dogs who get to go on this vacation with us. Believe me, we have organized way more than can be fit into 2 even humongous sized suitcases! I sure hope we remember to take OUR stuff, and presents. I'm the "worrier" DH says it's all going to come together. :thumbsup2

Hello!! Merry Christmas Everyone!!!! We had a great morning watching the kids open their gifts. Yesterday we spent the day going from my nieces house, DH's Grandparents, His Parents, My Parents, then my sister's house!! We aren't going anywhere today!! My parents came up to see what the kids got. The rest of the day it's just us. I really like it that way. No Christmas Day stress!
So Anyone get anything good??? Last Wed DH stole my pearl I got in Disney and took it to a jewelry for a proper chain. I went crazy looking for it. I was almost in tears, I thought I had lost it!! That stinker! He gave it to me Saturday night because he knew I wanted to wear it yesterday..and because I was going to start tearing up the house to look for it!! :rotfl:

Merry Christmas!

Had a chance to pop in while the ham is baking. No white Christmas here...just rain.

Hey....I can't get the smilies to work!

Anyhoo....spent the day at home, but will see cousins tomorrow, then take DS 11 for an MRI for his wrist. Then off to Pgh to see my family.

I can't get the smiles to work right now either. It was working this morning :(.
Also, when I send pms, it used to give us options of if we want the message tracked or not....but it just goes through once you hit send. :(
Hope your sons MRI reports come out like you hoped it would.

We opened our Christmas presents and I really don't know where all the toys and such are going.

Meriweather

12-25-2006, 11:24 PM

Merry Christmas.

Patsy, you have to check the option one to track the message. It is an option in the list at the bottom with saving, etc.

Airport run tomorrow morning, DD goes back :(

She did. She'll be back next week for a couple of days. She has to take a test at the university.

Did you see the option for tracking?
It is below. It is the one that is not checked ....and to get it you have to check it.

The kids and I have been cleaning my daughter's room today.
I have so many things from the exchanges that I participate in, as well as gifts and such that I buy to stock up on. I'm glad that we had cleaned out my storage room to make room for Christmas gifts and such.
I had to finish up on Christmas thank you cards, cook dinner, and also trying to put together my New Years menu. What is everyone else having for New Years?
Heidi, hope your husband feels better soon.

Sorry I have been scarce. Still have company, so it makes it hard to get online.
We had a good Christmas.
We aren't doing anything for NYE or day. Staying home, watching movies, etc.
DS and DDIL have a NYE party to go to, so they will probably sleep most of NY day.
I need to start packing soon, but hard to do that with company around.

ADisneygirl

12-29-2006, 01:38 PM

I've had company up until yesterday when I drove my Mom home. 6 hours of driving yesterday -- blech. I even had driving dreams last night!

My daughter and her boyfriend went home too - to Jacksonville. Gosh, I miss her already. Seems like only yesterday we were setting her up in the dorm and now 4 years have flown by and she has graduated and moved on.

No big plans for NYE. No parties. Just a quiet night in I guess. I didn't have a lot of time to DIS, but when the boards were down for a few days I tried to get on and was so disappointed! Glad they are back and now I have some time.

I've been spending the day un-decorating:sad1: I have to do a little at a time, I have tendonitis in my Achilles tendon..at least that's what I think. All I know is I can barely walk and it hurts something AWFUL!! My mother's family has this superstition about 2 tress in one year - so I gotta get my tree down before New Years.:sad2:
We have no big New Year's plans. I plan on having a whole bunch of finger foods -chicken strips, little pizzas, etc. Just me, Dh and the kids.

Happy Belated Birthday, Bobbi!

Anyone else need a vacation after the holidays?

It's been a long month. DS11 fell at school--straigh onto his wrist. After xrays, and an MRI we found out today he bruised the bones. The dr says it would have been easier to treat/heal if he had actually broken it.

I had my 94 yr old grandfather with us for a week after Xmas. I love him so much, but it gets harder each time.

And DH just called to say he's stuck at the airport in Charlotte. :sad1:

Ouch! I have to agree with that though- I bruised the bones across the top of my foot when I was 8. It took something like 6 weeks for the pain to go away, but then it would flare up about every other month or so for the next 3 years or whenever I would be too active and put more stress than normal on my foot! PE classes were loads of fun with that problem :sad2:

I've no experience with that type of injury, but it does sound painful. Best wishes to you as you try to console your son.

Anyway congrats on the puppy!! pixiedust: for quick house breaking!!

We haven't really had a winter yet, so I don't know what to think about this year! It's been really warm for us--40-50's, even 70 last week! I'm sure we'll get hit with snow in April just to even it all out. :goodvibes The boys have been really disappointed...I'm loving it.

Great to know. I guess this was a trick question to my next upcoming exchange. The Spring/Easter exchange. I have already seen Easter items being sold in stores here, but will be hosting it in mid/late Feb-or at the very beginning of March so hope many of you join us for it.
Even if you don't celebrate Easter, you can just ask for Spring related things. :)

If you were to recieve gift cards as a gift, which five places would you pick? It could be for either stores or restaurants.

There were Spring/Easter and Valentines day things out before Xmas in the Joanne's near my house... Let me tell you, it was annoying. Sheesh, but that just means it'll be clearanced all that much sooner.

I was just sitting here with a cup that I got in an exchange and thought.. "How many of us use the things we get regularly?" This one cup, I don't remember who I got it from, It was probably Mommytotwo or Kirby, but I use it all the time, and smile. Ian, of course thinks it's tacky. (It's a tink cappuchino mug) Phooey on him.

I hope everyone has a great weekend. I'm exhausted from fighting whatever bug I have. Thought it was Bronchitis, but now it might be the flu as I ache something terrible, as well as being exhausted from doing a history write up for my park as part of the WPASADI challenge. Wheee! I know more about that park than I ever needed to or wanted to do.. I even got to "Predict" the future.

Bobbie, do you have a picture of your doggie?

I will go through the pictures to see if I can post one.

How is Blackie doing at your home?

We're home from a great long weekend in Florida. The highlight was seeing the manatees who go to the warm spring at Blue Spring SP. We have gone to Florida for the last 7 MLKjr weekends and this was by far the best weather we've had there. It is so hard to come back to work, and SNOW.

My choices
WalMart
Hallmark
Dunkin Doughnuts
Amazon

So, does anyone have any plans for the weekend?
Sunday is my dad's birthday so we are inviting some friends and relatives over for dinner.

So, the QOTD is-
If you were to receive gift cards as a gift, which five places would you pick? It could be for either stores or restaurants.

Sounds like a fun trip.
Blackie is being a little rascal since he is now taking our slippers and bringing it into the lawn. So, we need to remember to put them on the shoe box before we come into the house.

How is everyone?? It's quiet on here today. I had a rough night, my DS woke me up at 2am to tell me he threw up all over his room:eek: So that was fun. I had just fallen asleep, I think I got 4 hours of sleep last night. Then DD14 was crying in pain with cramps...it was just such fun. The bright side is that my mom came up to sit with my older 2 and just DD8 and I went food shopping. We had fun! I never get to do stuff with just her.
So how is everyone out in exchange land?????

Hi Kim, sounds like you had a very rough night. Hope tonight is better for you and that you can get more rest.
I am trying to figure out both recipe exchanges, but it is driving me nuts and I am :confused: :confused: :confused: . I don't think I will be doing another one of those in the future. The regular exchanges seem easier to put together, even thought the recipes are just recipes in an envelope :confused: .
I have been trying to get things done around the house, but it seems like it never ends. I want a housekeeper :) :rotfl: .
I want to start the Spring/Easter exchange now :rolleyes1 :yay: :dance3: .

It's been a rough week for me. My grandfather passed away on Friday. He was 94 and had a wonderful life, and had just spent a week with us after Christmas. But it still makes me sad. He lived with my aunt (his DIL--long story) and she is being ugly and greedy and it's making it so much harder. They already took all his money when he went to live with them, but it's not enough apparently.

I tried to type that in a few times since then, but it sounded too pitiful. Hope I did better this time.

So, who's got a funny story that will make me laugh now? :goodvibes

I'm ready for a spring exchange!

mommytotwo

01-18-2007, 12:08 PM

:hug: I am sorry to hear about your grandfather passing away.
Sorry, I am bad with jokes and I can't think of a funny story, but hopefully someone here is good at jokes.

Start stocking up on your Spring/Easter things since the exchange will be coming up most likely in the middle/ending of Feb. :)

I don't have any funny stories either. Well I might but I'm too tired to think. The stomach bug spread to my 8yr old last night. Boy do I need a nap!

Patsy, I'm sorry that this recipe exchange is driving you bonkers!! I enjoyed it if that makes you feel better!!

I'm looking forward to the spring/Easter exchange. If we aren't going to get a real winter here we might as well start spring early!!

Well, rats! I just came back from a quick run to my local mall, and the Yankee Candle Store is closing on the 31st! :sad1: It seems that the current mall management team is anti-scent, anti-candle because they refused to renew the leases of all the candle stores in the mall. Illuminations closed on January 1st, YC is closing the 31st, and White Barn is also closing but no signs have been posted for a date yet (though everything was marked way down and the shelves looked fairly bare). :sad2:

But it will be painful for him :sad1: .

His first tooth! That's a big milestone. :)

Not too much going on here. We keep getting teased with snow...but only flurries. DSs started a martial arts class. It ends at 8 pm, tho, so we're skipping tonight's since DS6 had a huge meltdown yesterday when some friends were over. I know he's tired and needs to go to bed early.

Anyone else's DH travel a lot with work? Mine is usually gone Mon-Thurs and lately Mon-Fri. :eek:

To eat there, it's Mickey Bars, to bring home, the Mickey Mints in tins...and Goofy Cinnamons, we buy lots to eat ourselves in between trips, and to give as small gifts to friends! Luckily, the tins are easy to find, in the candy and gift shops!

What's yours?

My dog Greta chewed one of my favorite slippers when she was a puppy. I LOVED those slippers:sad: That was almost 3 years ago and it took me till just last month to find perfect replacements. Thank goodness she is out of the chewing stage!

Favorite Disney Snack...does pretzel bread count?? I love the Mickey bars too. I like the Mickey head pretzels. My kids like the Mickey head pasta. Sometimes when I make baked mac and cheese I'll throw in a handful or two of them with the regular noodles. The kids love finding hidden Mickeys while they eat!

Good morning exchangers :).
What do you all have planned for today?

I am cleaning up the house today, getting things done in the garden, and also going to bake peanut butter cookies with peanut butter cups in the middle with my daughter.
I want to get more seeds planted in our garden before our trip, and hopefully find a bunch of new flower and vegetable seeds on our trip.

So, does anyone else here garden?

pennst8r

01-26-2007, 03:11 PM

I had alot of errands today. Finally bought the material to make this really cute ladybug fleece blanket/throw for my niece's birthday.

I plant herbs in the back every year, and DS11 plants milkweed so that he can get monarch caterpillars. (there is a monarch watch program where you tag the butterflies and they are tracked to follow migration patterns. You can see where yours have been found!) That's the extent of my garndening!

I had a big garden at our old house, but here among all the Amish farms that sell their produce it doesn't make sense to have one.

Meriweather

01-26-2007, 03:17 PM

Only a flower garden here....mostly bulbs (and mostly tulip bulbs).
I am still recovering from vacation, but think everything is finally done.

Yes. We are. We are at Saratoga Springs - bought about 3 or 4 years ago. Since we travel to FL alot (family is there), it just made sense for us.

We had a woman that we worked with that was great. I will PM you her info.

If you have any questions let me know, but you should also take a look at the DVC forum. There are alot of people over there who are considering buying also.

PS. About gardening! I don't do as much as I once did. Since I also spend part of my summer in Cape May NJ, I don't have time to care for my home garden. However, I do grow tomatoes, and cucumbers and I have a small amount of asparagus which is a perennial. I also have red raspberries. They are so hardy, just step back and they'll take over your whole lawn.

I wish you could too! Blueberries are a bit harder in my opinioin. You need acid soil and for me, the trick was getting them ripe before the robins just came and ate them. Even if the berry was mostly green, but just the hint of a bit of blue, the robins figured, Done! I finally gave up. I travel to New Jersey in the summer, and I know there are other states that grow blueberries, NJ Blueberries are the best IMHO!

I think that's it! I could have missed something! Our neighbor has a tractor and he has offered to plow my back field. It's a small field...easy to manage. I told the kids I'd buy the seeds or starter plants and give them guidance but with my bad back I can't really get in there and plant and weed. So my 2 youngest - DS12 and DD8 volunteered to do it. They even volunteered their older sister to help too!! It should be fun!

Wow, that is alot of planting. But at the same time, they should have alot of fun harvesting their goodies :).
My dad planted lima beans and my daughter likes to pick them and help him take the beans out of the pod.
This afternoon, my daughter and I had planted sunflowers, pansies, and two other types of flowers :).
Hopefully they will grow. For us the flowers and bulbs are a hit and miss thing compared to the veggies.

Hi Patsy, I was just wondering how you find life with your two children? I always thought that 1 was as easy as pie, (more or less) but it became more hectic in many ways with 2. And you have Blackie, I didn't get a dog until much later. By the way, I'm a DGM now, so I mostly admire the DGC from afar and have great fun with them!

Bobbi:goodvibes

Hi Bobbi,
I am very fortunate to have my parents always helping us. Especially when I have my stepson here as well, that means I have 3 kids to take care of :eek: . I am also a SAHM, so that really helps.

My daughter likes to go into the garden and bake with me, so we do those things together :), and she likes to do projects, so I try to find her different things that she can do for different holidays. So if anyone has any ideas, feel free to send them my way :goodvibes .

I wonder how old I will be when we first see our first grandkids. I hope not anytime soon. :rotfl:

Ok so last night DH and I took our kids to see Michael Flatley's Lord of the Dance. My DDs are Irish dancers and they have been looking forward to this for months. Besides a minor detour in Philly (AKA:we got lost!) we had a blast. We got to meet the dancers and got pictures and autographs, then we got to tour their tour bus (it's amazing what happens when you ask!!). We met the promoter and he loved my kids, especially my youngest. He even gave her a stuffed animal.
So flash forward to about 30 mins later..we are headed home driving down the interstate. Doing about 65-70mph (NOTE: the speed limit on this road is 65) when out of no where and I mean no where..poof there is a huge deer and BANG we slam right into it!! At that same instant the two front air bags deployed..only DH is still driving...with the air bag in his face. The deer didn't stop us so we still had to navigate to the shoulder. For those of you that don't know..when your air bag deploys it releases smoke and a VERY smelly gas.
So the kids are screaming. I'm yelling "Are you guys alright !! Put the windows down!!" It was not fun! But Thank God we were all ok. DH's hand is bruised from the air bag. The kids are all shook up but fine. I got the worst of it. I inhaled alot of the fumes from the air bag and my throat and chest hurt still. Plus I was already suffering from 3 herniated discs so you can imagine my soreness today!
The truck is pretty much totalled. We don't have the official word yet but we slammed that deer on it's broad side. It had to be put on a roll back. I'm glad we were in a truck, had we been in a car I wouldn't be typing this today! They people behind us in the other lane pulled over. They said it looked like something out of a dream the deer just stepped out and stood there like "Hit Me!". We waited 45 mins for the police!! That really stunk because we had to leave the windows down with the engine off..it was FREEZING!!!!! My parents had to drive an hour and 45 mins to pick us up.
I'm just so thankful that everyone was ok. It could have been worse.
BUT..to top it off..this morning I was coming in from getting the mail and noticed someone paintball-d my house last night. It had to have happened before we got home. So I had my second chat with a Nj state trooper in less than 24 hours!!
I think I need to go back to bed!!! Sorry this is so long! I just needed to vent!!
Thanks for "listening"!

Yikes! Glad you are all okay, Kimba! We have to dodge deer on a nightly basis in my town, our division has a resident herd, lol...

Oh, how scary! I hit a deer once, but was only going 25-30 mph. That was bad enough.

I hope you all recover from the shock. I'm sure it will be awhile until you drive with some of your old confidence. 2 years later, I'm still wary of roads with deer in the vicinity. Were you on the AC Expressway? There are so many deer along that highway, I just wish we had a sane/humane way of dealing with their population.

Thanks pilikia97 and Bobbi!!
My kids are still really shook up. My DS12 asked me when will he ever stop thinking about it. My DD8 said "I don't know why mom but I'm still really scared and upset.". So yeah it will be a while I think. This was a first for all of them.
Were you on the AC Expressway?
Bobbi
We were on Route 55, sort of the bay side "parkway". I know what you mean about the Expressway though. Lots of deer there too. Actually there are lots of deer everywhere in South Jersey.

Thanks again for your concern! I really appreciate it!

So glad you appear to be no physically worse from the wear from the car wreck! :eek:
I swear by deer whistlers. I know many are not sure they work. But DH and I use to drive long, dark, narrow county roads to get to college and back (lower MI). With the deer whistlers we both noticed deer and other animals stop and wait by the side of the road.

In January 2006 an elder man made a left turn directly in front of me with his (new) car. I t-boned his car. (And I was going maybe 35 mph.)
My air bags deployed. And of course my vehicle's front end was shot too.
His insurance company totalled my vehicle without any delay due to my vehicles's airbags deployment and my selt belts locked up. (I was the only one in my vehicle.)
We were told those two systems alone are very expensive to be replaced. And they have to be replaced and not just fixed. Otherwise insurance companies will not cover the repaired vehicle.
So your vehicle may well be totalled due to the airbags too.

Good luck! I know the aftermath is a mess too!! :dance3:

I'm sorry to hear about your deer incident Kimbac.

How was your Superbowl day?

Thanks Patsy:) We spent some of the day at the mall. Thankfully we can all fit in my DH's work truck-boy is that a bumpy ride!) My son's birthday is Saturday so we let him go to the skateboard shop and get a new board for his Bday.
Then DH took us all out to dinner. He said we needed it! It was nice. We told the waitress at restaurant about DS Bday and she brought him/us an AWESOME dessert. Some chocolate cake with ice cream and whip cream concoction. It was so good!!
I'm off to the car rental place today. Gotta get some wheels!

How was everyone else's Superbowl Sunday????

I got my rental. They couldn't find an available full size car (which is what my insurance will pay for) so they gave me a 2007 Suburban!! What a sweet ride! My kids are loving life. Nobody has to sit next to each other!!:rotfl:

Yum, that sounds like a delicious dessert. After dinner tonight, we had gone to Krispy Kremes and we had gotten donuts, yummy we had gotten some freshly made ones and it was so good that it melted in our mouths.
Superbowl was okay. We had gone to my husband's friends house and there were a bunch of people who had gone over. I didn't place a bet on the game, but I should have since I picked the winning team :(. I didn't even win the block that was being done at the house :( :(. So, for most of the game, my daughter and I had gone shopping.
We had gotten an upgrade for our rental here in Vegas, so we have a Tahoe :). It is nice since we can fit 9 of us in there.
Hope to chat with you all again soon.
We are going to see if Kevin and I can get out for a bit tonight while my BIL and his wife watches the kids. I am actually ready to go out, but since my daughter said that she would stay with them, I want to see how that goes since she hasn't stayed with anyone else except me during the night.
I better go rescue my husband from Brandon since he is now tired and crying :lmao: .

Kimbac3 ~ so glad that everyone was ok. I am lucky to say that the airbags have never deployed in my car, knock on wood. I hope to never see it happen. I didn't know a gas was released. That would be terrible for my asthma, but I guess better than the alternative.

It is a little chilly here tonight in Florida. Not bad though. I am thankful that we were not in the path of those tornadoes. How terrible for those people. Nothing to warn them, even if they had weather band radios, who has them going at night while you sleep? The state needs an alarm system to alert residents. We have no basements to hide in, but I'd still like a warning to crouch down in my walk in closet and hide.

Hi Everyone.
Nancy, not sure if you will read this, but decided to post here to your question about how my trip was.

It was a busy trip since we were doing this and that. We had visited many family and friends, went to my husband's cousin's housewarming party, we had gone up to the mountain to see the snow, shopping.... it was nice to have the kids see their cousins.

Brandon now has two bottom teeth and it really bothers him during the nights. He is also really big now. He wears 6-9 month clothes and up. I have him in a Gymboree onsie that is 18-24 months :scared1: .

I have had it, between the little snow and all the sleet we have gotten since last night, we have almost if not a foot with more to come. :sad2:

Patsy get the spare room ready ;) I am so ready to move some place warm.

pennst8r

02-14-2007, 02:05 PM

I'm not too far from you---and the sleet/hail was coming down as hard as rain for most of the night and morning. It's finally changed to snow.

DH is gone for the week, and the snow pact with our neighbor is he can use our snow blower if he does our driveway, too. ;) It worked pretty well on what was there,surprisingly, and I just shovelled away the last inch of slush.

The kids are outside sledding--huge hill behind our house. There is normally a step down to our patio---but the ice has formed all the way up so the dog just walks straight out!:goodvibes

Yesterday she tried to plant a branch that looked liked Charlie Brown's Christmas tree that she found by the dog :rotfl: . We bought her a new kids plastic shovel and she is having fun digging all over the place.

Hope those of you who are in the storms path are all safe.

Pooh67_68

02-14-2007, 09:49 PM

They still don't have the road I live on in the development plowed and because of that, the guy who was supposed to plow our driveway can't reach us. :sad2:

mickeyfan2

02-15-2007, 03:39 PM

It was a little slippery here this morning but now we have black roads. Some roads still need to be pushed back a little bit.

Lucky for us the farmer who plows for us also fills in for the township, when needed. He will plow the road from his house to the snow emergency road and then plow from his house to our house and then our driveway. We both live on the same street. All of that for only $60. BTW our driveway is 500 feet long.

Pooh67_68

02-15-2007, 04:45 PM

:scared1:

BTW our driveway is 500 feet long.

We are still not plowed out, the road or driveway. It seems that the equipment on four of the trucks broke down last night.

John talked to the guy who will plow the driveway once he can get to us (road needs to be done first), and he was working on his plow as it was broke.

Everthing is a solid mass of ice now and its so thick that everyone is breaking their equipment. Who knows when we will be plowed out.

I have never been in a snow or snow storm situation, so here is some questions that I have been wondering about.

*Do you stock up any any type of particular food or drinks?
*Was there ever a time that you were not able to leave your house?
*What goes on with the newspaper, mail delivery....?
*Since you aren't able to go to work....what happens-I am assuming you don't get paid during those days.

mickeyfan2

02-15-2007, 05:33 PM

*Do you stock up any any type of particular food or drinks?
We don't but many people do.

*Was there ever a time that you were not able to leave your house?
Yes but only for a day or two.

*What goes on with the newspaper, mail delivery....?
We did not get our mail yesterday but it did come today. It the paper did not arrive, you just call in and they give you credit back for paper. Most times the paper just arrives late after the roads are plowed.

*Since you aren't able to go to work....what happens-I am assuming you don't get paid during those days.
I don't get paid, but some companies will pay you if the state is in a state of emergency (only allowed to be on the road for emergencies or for needed jobs) or the facility is closed.

BTW I just saw on the news that I78 is stopped and has a 50 mile back up due to it.

After the storms we had here in CO this past Christmas we certainly do- Milk, eggs, bread, and whatever can be cooked on a BBQ grill! We were housebound for 2 days or so and when we were finally able to get to the store, there was no milk to be found anywhere! Took almost a month for the dairies to be able to resume their normal delivery schedules, so in that time stores would only get in like 10-15 gallons of milk and they would be gone in 20 minutes after opening. That stuff was way more popular than any gaming system console released at Christmas, lol! :rotfl2:
At least this time we did not lose our power so we could still cook stuff on the stove or in the oven, but in the storm of 2003 we did lose power for a day and a half...we did not yet have a BBQ grill yet so we could cook nothing hot, we were freezing, and completely enviously drooling when we looked out off our back deck and saw the neighbors behind us cooking up these nice big fat steaks, lol! Now we always have meats on hand for grilling just in case, and that grill is one of our best purchases ever! ;)

Hi!

Cincinnati, where I work, got lots more ice than we got up here, just 30 miles north. School was closed on Tuesday, and even today, there just about all of the trees are loaded with ice...it's very pretty as they glisten in the sun, but it's very dangerous. Lots of tree and probably home damage. Stores were very crowded on the weekend, people knew this storm was coming!

Dayton Power and Light has been very good...since we moved here 14 years ago, there hasn't been many times that we've lost electricity, and never for an extended period of time. We have been very fortunate.

I only work on Tuesdays and Thursdays. So far, my Tuesday night class has had 2 classes cancelled due to weather. We only had 9 + 1 exam night scheduled. Needless to say, I'm behind in the class work! I teach at the University of Cincinnati!

I'm glad to read that you did have a busy, fun vacation, Patsy. You mentioned going to see snow...where..I think you also mentioned Krispy Kreme donuts and Las Vegas!

Yes the doors were drifted shut, John had to climb out the front window so he could remove the snow.

I thought you said "It's really cold"....I was going to laugh.:goodvibes My sister-in-law always talks about how cold it is...in the Bahamas!...when it drops to 60.

When it snows, or is expected to snow, everyone runs to the store here to buy what my friend calls "french toast ingredients" : bread, milk and eggs! The shelves are empty!

I have 3 little boys, so I do make sure I have an extra gallon of milk. I think we could live for a week off what's stuffed in my pantry, but this time I made sure I had lunch meat, too. With DH out of town during the week, I'd rather have it and not need it, than be stuck....

...and I've been stuck in my house for a few days now. :laughing: I'm sure I could get out if I really needed to, but getting back up my driveway would be the hard part--but I'll be out today. Have to mail my exchange!

Here's an interesting tidbit---in Lancaster, they have no where to put all the snow they plow out of the streets and parking lots when we get a big snow! They have to haul it away!

This is what most big cities do. Buffalo, NY dumps the snow in the same lake it came out of.

I did not know that you lived in the City of Lancaster. We are just south of you. We had to drive through the city yesterday to get my staples out and boy were the streets horrible. Our little township had ours down to the road. We did have some drifting. It took us a half an hour to go from Kendig sq to James street on route 222.

MickeyMamma

02-16-2007, 09:36 AM

I think around the city here, they dump the plowed snow into the river. Just nowhere to put it all.

As for me, my car is iced in today. When the storm came through Wednesday I got it out, cleaned it off, no problems. Yesterday DH took DS to school and I walked to pick him up (took about 45 minutes to walk about 3 blocks to get him since people have not dug out their sidewalks and the intersection areas are like big slushes several feet out from the curb. UGH!!! Not fun to try to haul a stroller through all of that.

I am really hoping for alot of sunshine this morning so I can try to get my car out while DD is down for her nap. I am still trying to figure out about getting DS home this afternoon.

PLEASE send some sunshine and warmer temperatures this way. I want to be able to get out today.

I'm actually just a little north of Lancaster city in Cocalico township. It just never occured to me that they wouldn't have anywhere to put the snow!

I wish they'd take it off our street instead of shoving 3 foot high piles of snow that we have to dig out if we want our mail!:rolleyes:

By the way:
I have never been in a snow or snow storm situation, so here is some questions that I have been wondering about.

*Do you stock up any any type of particular food or drinks?
If it's a big one, mostly canned foods/perishables (beans, ravvioli, pasta) we can warm up on our camping stove- in case the power goes out.
*Was there ever a time that you were not able to leave your house?
No, we have a covered porch and storm doors so the only snow we usually get right in front of the house is a thin layer. Under the covered part is an enterance to the garage, so from there we can get into the car or get a shovel.
*What goes on with the newspaper, mail delivery....?
Most of the time it is postponed until they can get the roads cleared.
*Since you aren't able to go to work....what happens-I am assuming you don't get paid during those days.
It depends on the job you have.

Hello everyone! I'm still deciding on whether or not I should host an exchange. If I did, I like the idea of a rainbow exchange sometime in the late spring-early summer. I'd like to know, has it been done before?

That sounds interesting, could you tell us more about it.

I was thinking about doing the Summer Exchange again before Summer....but not sure if I will be hosting or participating in any other exchanges after the Spring/Easter Exchange that I am now hosting is over.

I am glad that we don't have any snow here to worry about. Seems like it could be really hard on your everyday lives when a storm or alot of snow falls.

milkabum, do you have a baby? If so what age and gender?

milkabum

02-18-2007, 07:01 PM

Nope! Heck I'm almost 13 LOL.
However I might get my mom to help with the exchange set up, and we know a lot of people with babies. My sister (25) recently became a godmother actually, and her friend had a baby just a couple weeks ago.

The exchange will be for expecting mothers and people with children from newborn to 24 months. It will be for toys, helpful items like bottles, bibs, and baby bags, and perhaps clothing. I'm thinking the exchange might have a minimum of 10 dollars, because I'm not sure 5 dollars will get you much.

Yes, $5.00 won't get you much, so $10.00 would be a nice price range.

Nope, but she does lurk around to see what I'm doing. Mumsies a disney fan too. :p Perhaps I'll have a vote on rainbow, baby or something else..

I need to get alot of things done around the house and today is my uncle's birthday, so I am making a ham, dessert-not sure what yet-any suggestions anyone? I want to use things I already have so that I don't have to make another trip to the store, and a side dish-this Korean long rice dish with veggies.

I was able to have Kevin watch Brandon last night since I was very tired, so I had gotten some much needed rest, but I am still tired.

What is everyone else doing today?

Welcome Maggie! There's something always going on so I'm sure you'll find plenty to do.

Patsy, Carol's doing fine. She started dating a month ago and is having the best time. So far no rules broken but she has been a warning once or twice. The bully that had targeted assaulted another girl in band and was sent to alternative school for awhile and is now at the other high school here in town. Makes us breathe a sigh of relief! Hopefully he will not be allowed back at our school next year for his senior year.

I remember being where you are at. Seems like you'll never catch up with your sleep and all of a sudden, you do. But then, you know that. ;)

That is a sigh of relief.
Hope Carol has fun with the dating life.

Working.... Though on Friday after work, I am giving my first PAID professional massage. I've been so busy working as a receptionist for the school, that I've not had a chance to go out and ply my trade. *grin* I'm hoping that my hands will help my friend heal from the heartache she's currently going thru. She lost her Father in December, and in mid January, her sister literally dropped dead on the spot. Her daughter is having difficulties dealing with this and so both of them are going to have a massage from me.
