[disgrits]

Good morning to everyone else. I'm giving up coffee and tea starting today. Since I've already given up soda I guess that leaves me with good old H20 & milk. Wish me luck everyone. :scared1:

DON'T DO IT!!!!:lmao: :scared1: :lmao: :scared1:

My Rob has given up coffee and sweet drinks (sodas, tea, koolaid), except for one cup of coffee in the morning. It has been a real sacrifice for him. He actually said to me last night that it would've been easier to give up booze!:scared1: :scared1: :scared1: :scared1:

Oh yeah, I gave up booze a long long time ago. My mouth and brain love it but my stomach says no. :rolleyes:

[millerpjm]

Good morning/afternoon everyone!

I have been gone all weekend, and it looks like it will take me a while to catch up!

We had a lot of fun at the waterpark this weekend, but I am REALLY tired today. The kids just could not get enough of those waterslides!

Ok, going to start reading back....I can't even remember which page I was at last....

[cntkg1]

BTW, I'll be dropping your CD's off at the post office in a little bit, you should have them in a few days........;)

WHAT???? You burned them for me?? :hug: :love: :hug: :love: :hug:
Don't tell Chris, but now I think I have a crush on you Andy! :cutie:

[DISNEYDUET]

Morning Everyone! Hope no one was late to work today. Boy I had a hard time getting up! The house was nice and cool and no sunlight peeking through the curtians...:cloud9: I could have slept for another 2 hours! Needless to say I did not getup and run this morning like I should have. It will be warmer this afternoon anyhow. I will run then.

Well Woody got off fine this morning. I ironed his new pants and packed his lunch. I even made him coffee! He said he would call at lunch and let me know how the day was going. I don't want to call him and be a bother.

[millerpjm]

I'm also going to make it to the adult beach too next time.

Sorry Ellis - you're in the kids club for an hour:rolleyes1 - the photos looked lovely of that beach and waaaay more empty than the family beach.

Other things I didnt do last time were:

Spa treatment, gym, cinema, topsiders for lunch, lie on a sunbed on the deck above the pool, cookery demo, martini tasting;) , the list goes onnnn

I have a "must do" list already:lmao: - thank goodness we get an extra sea day so I can fit it all in!

Karen, I also have a "to do" list for the next cruise:

- dessert cooking demo
- Palo brunch and/or dinner (we didn't get to Palo at ALL)
- Rockin' Bar D :woohoo:

I can't even think of them all right now....

[millerpjm]

Crap Karen, it looks like you didn't do a lot. What did you do?

We got to the movie theater, and I believe I got lunch from Topsiders (I thought that was the sea day after Cozumel - didn't Neil and I eat from there while you and Suz had deserts from Quiet Cove Cafe'? :rolleyes1 ).

Did the spa on the first cruise, will probably do the gym on the next one, but I just walk or run, so I might do that on Deck 4 (saw Walt/Di on that deck a couple of times :thumbsup2 ). Would like to do one of the demos. Sunbed on Deck 10? Sorry, I'll take one on Deck 9. Too bloody hot up on 10 and you're closer to the pool on 9. :thumbsup2 Although they'll be easier to get.

Not into martini's but Suz is. I'll skip that one.

Luckily we have 7 sea days not counting the day we sail through the Canal in August. Guess I should look to experience a few more things on the ship.

We only ate in Lumiere's once for lunch and that was on our first cruise. I really enjoyed it, but Suz doesn't want to waste time inside for lunch when she can eat out in the sun. Anyone want to join me on one of the sea days on BOB for lunch in Lumiere's? Maybe we could do a DIS meet on that Thursday for lunch if we don't have anything else planned for that day. :thumbsup2

I'll be there! We had lunch at Lumiere's once....best bacon cheeseburger ever! I think they put 6 strips of bacon on the thing. We're sort of spoiled - we love table service as opposed to a buffet.

[minnieandmickey]

Good morning to everyone else. I'm giving up coffee and tea starting today. Since I've already given up soda I guess that leaves me with good old H20 & milk. Wish me luck everyone. :scared1:

But tea is good for you,lots of good antioxidants, and the green tea helps with weight loss.:thumbsup2

I’m not giving up tea altogether. I always have 3 drops of Green Tea Extract in my Blue Moon smoothie every morning for breakfast. I’m still trying to figure out what is going on with my throat and thought I would eliminate coffee and tea which I drink tons of every day.:scared1:





$3.60...:scared1:



Just how Brazen can a women get?...:snooty:afeg...call me Brazen. I have a crush on any man who showers me with gifts or woos me with dirty jokes. Consider yourself safe. :hug:

Sorry to answer for you Becky but I thought I would add my two cents. Correct me if I am wrong

[MinnMick01]

Good morning all. Hope everyone has a good day.

About 1 1/2 hours north of us is a tourist town (Wisconsin Dells) which has several hotels with indoor waterparks.

This is where we stayed:

Indoor water parks. How neat. that is a concept that we do not have out here. That would be so much fun.

[DISNEYDUET]

Bye Jeb- I have to go too. I have a production meeting and a meeting with our surgical equipment supplier to see if we can get our overhead costs down. Wish me luck!

[MinnMick01]

I forgot to tell everyone. Mackenzie learned how to tie her shoes last week and made the shoe tying wall at school.

I agree. a determined cute little girl. Diane

[MinnMick01]

off to school and work. Have a good day everyone.

[millerpjm]

We had a nice day today. mid 50's. Woody and I went to the outlets in Williamsburg to get him clothes for work. Ralph Lauren, J Crew, LL Bean, and Gap. We found some really great deals. We also both got new running shoes too. We wear Sauconys and the style I were retails at $180 and I got them for $90! :banana: Woodys are usually $145 and his were $34!!!:cool1:

He starts his new job tomorrow! :banana: He is actually excited!

There's an outlet mall in WI Dells that I went to this weekend...didn't stay long but I did manage to get to the Disney Outley and got DS 3 t-shirts for $5 each, and some Lion King little toys (originally $12.50 - I paid $5). I also got a skirt at Coldwater Creek outlet for $10 (originally $89.00) and some summer shoes from Easy Spirit for $10 (from 49.99)!

Yeay Woody - good luck on the new job!

[Walt & Di]

I have the same bear, probably bought in the same year. He's around here somewhere, I think he is missing his vest though.

love the photos Mike. nice memories. Diane

Yep, you'll be getting 4 different CD's. They were dropped off at the post office earlier this morning, should be there in 2-3 days.

I know what you mean Shelley. I was getting used to it being lighter in the morning, then when I walked out front at 6am to pick up my paper and it was still pitch black out, I wanted to come back in and go to bed.........:rotfl2:

Ok, one more "my family is going to drive me crazy before the cruise" story, and then I'll behave.

I'm planning to make t-shirts for the cruise for everyone as part of their Christmas gift. I decided to ask them now who their favorite Disney characters are, so I have some time to search for really good clipart. Ok, so first they asked if it was limited to Disney movies, or any film studio connected to Disney (MGM, New Line)....then they started coming up with all these obscure characters (Dr. Terminus from Pete's Dragon - is that really anyone's favorite Disney character?). Then they asked how long they had to think about it???? Is it really that hard? Am I being unreasonable? :confused3

Ok, rant over. The all get Minnie Mouse (even the boys) if they don't give me an answer....

I just heard on the noon news that it could take the body weeks to get use to the Spring Forward time change. I guess I shouldn't complain that it only takes me a few days to get used to it.

It was also stated that the body adjusts quicker to when the clocks are moved back in the fall, because we gain an hour of sleep.

Oh my, time for me to get back to work already..........:wave2:

[DISNEYDUET]

Just got a call from Woody. He is bored! :laughing: He has an office but no computer or phone. They haven't given him a log in yet so he can't even go work at another desk. :badpc: It's driving him mad! He is one of those people who likes to be busy. I don't know what that is all about. :rolleyes1 He has a meeting at 2:00pm with the security guy to get him set up so at least he can work this afternoon and should be up and running by the morning.

I can understand that - I think "springing forward" is always worse. I am very sleepy today.

[millerpjm]

Ok, since I have started thinking about t-shirts (again) for the B.O.B. cruise, I'd like some opininons. I was originally going to use black t-shirts since Cass's logo would look so sharp - but now I'm thinking about using white t-shirts since I think the front part (name and fave character) will show up better on white. I did light blue last time, but I don't think that would look good with the B.O.B. logo.

Thoughts, anyone?

Jen,

I actually had transfer paper in my hand this weekend at Sam’s but put it back. I like using the transfer paper for dark clothing because I think it so much easier to use and the colors really stand out much nicer.

The dark clothing transfer paper is white so you have to be able to trim your image nice and tight so the paper doesn’t show up on the dark shirt.

I’m thinking of using a black t-shirt this time too but just think how hot that thing will be in the hot hot hot Caribbean sun. White t-shirts would be nice too, but it sure won’t show off that amazing logo Cass did for us as nice as a black shirt would.

How about purple, yellow or DIS green??

I’m stuck myself so I’m waiting with you for more suggestions.

[oybolshoi]

Hiya! :)

Jen, I'm no help when it comes to t-shirts - Jay and I don't do matching shirts and I never iron if at all possible. :rotfl2:

But I do think the logo would look really nice on white - it would POP; ya know what I mean?


And ... yeah baby it's offical! We're going to WDW October 8th - October 17th. Just got the final confirmations from DVC today. :thumbsup2

[oybolshoi]

Way to kill the thread after not being here for a week ... :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

Pete mentioned (after I said I was thinking about changing the color of the t-shirts) that he thought black would be too hot, even in October.

The light blue t-shirts I did I used regular transfer paper, and the t-shirts turned out ok, but I might use dark transfer paper this time. I didn't think the colors looked as nice as they could have, but it was my first iron-on attempt, so I was happy.

I noticed that - couldn't stick around for one more day? ;)

That is one of 2, almost identical, brother and sister pests. :lmao: They're both American short-hair blues.

Pete and I have had them for almost 10 years.

She had to inspect the final product....

[oybolshoi]

your cats are beeeee-yoooooo-teeeee-full! :goodvibes

our cat would be the same way ... sticks his nose in everywhere. If it isn't covered with cat hair, it's obviously not good enough. :rotfl2:

Ok, while Kira is snacking, I put the round logo on different colour backgrounds so you could see what it would look like.

I'm not sure yet but I am thinking of doing a black one. I don't plan on being in the sun very much that day so I don't care about the heat factor.

When I get time later, I will post those coloured logos on the bob site for future reference. :thumbsup2

Yay!! Bendy's going to WDW again :woohoo: Another trippie or two :rolleyes1 :cool1:

I like the purple one!

[Timon]

I like the purple one!

Actually, I do too! It would look better with a darker colored ring around the logo though! I might make one of those later!

[Verandah Man]

I can understand that - I think "springing forward" is always worse. I am very sleepy today.



Me too Jen. I just stopped by the house for a few minutes and it's all I can do to keep my eyes :eek: open............:laughing:

[millerpjm]

your cats are beeeee-yoooooo-teeeee-full! :goodvibes

our cat would be the same way ... sticks his nose in everywhere. If it isn't covered with cat hair, it's obviously not good enough. :rotfl2:


Thank you - they are cute...I'll try to post a better pic tonight if I think about it.

Yes, grey cat hair everywhere....you could build another cat with the hair they shed...

[Timon]

Here's my other baby...


Goofy
http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/goofy-1.jpg

We got him the day after we got back from our honeymoon (we picked him out before our wedding but he wasn't ready to leave his mommy yet) so we've had him for almost 10 years!

[millerpjm]

I'm not sure yet but I am thinking of doing a black one. I don't plan on being in the sun very much that day so I don't care about the heat factor.

When I get time later, I will post those coloured logos on the bob site for future reference. :thumbsup2

Yay!! Bendy's going to WDW again :woohoo: Another trippie or two :rolleyes1 :cool1:

I like the purple one!

Actually, I do too! It would look better with a darker colored ring around the logo though! I might make one of those later!


Thanks Cass! That helps a bunch!

I really like the purple, but I don't think the guys will go for it. I think I'm going to end up doing white after all. I think it will look best with the characters I plan to add on the front. Maybe I'll make black t-shirts with the Mickey Pumpkin for MNSSHP instead...

Ok, next question - are people thinking of doing the round logo or rectangular logo?

Yes, we need to decide this now....I don't have other cruises to plan for! :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

Sweet kitty! :lovestruc

[Karen Mouse]

Good evening everybody

Karen, I also have a "to do" list for the next cruise:

- dessert cooking demo
- Palo brunch and/or dinner (we didn't get to Palo at ALL)
- Rockin' Bar D :woohoo:

I can't even think of them all right now....

You've got to get to Palo next time - brunch and dinner are both fab:banana:

Holy Cow! Is it about 3L to 1 gallon? Is that right? So if I have a 15 gallon gas tank it would cost me $162 to fill up! :scared:

Yep:rolleyes: - thats England for ya:rolleyes: £££££££££

It costs Neil $180 to fill his Grand cherokee.


I forgot to tell everyone. Mackenzie learned how to tie her shoes last week and made the shoe tying wall at school.

:woohoo: Well done Mackenzie:woohoo: - Ellis just gets velcro shoes:rolleyes1

Ok, since I have started thinking about t-shirts (again) for the B.O.B. cruise, I'd like some opininons. I was originally going to use black t-shirts since Cass's logo would look so sharp - but now I'm thinking about using white t-shirts since I think the front part (name and fave character) will show up better on white. I did light blue last time, but I don't think that would look good with the B.O.B. logo.

Thoughts, anyone?

Do botrh - one white and one black - one for getting opnboard and one for our group photo meet. I then used mine to swim in *** my shoulders were burnt.

Hiya! :)
Jay and I don't do matching shirts

:scared1: No Bob shirt in the terminal???:scared1: - I dont think thats allowed!:rotfl:

Ok, while Kira is snacking, I put the round logo on different colour backgrounds so you could see what it would look like.

I did small logo on the front with Karen above it and then Karen Mouse accross my shoulders on the back.



I want to do the round on the front with our DIS name and real names (Cass, Sweet Pea, Can I get some help with that? :lovestruc ) and the Mickey Pumpkin on the back. Not sure what color yet.


The only trouble is ironing the darned thing if you have logos on both sides - it gets kind of tricky:rolleyes:

[DISNEYDUET]

Yeah, I may just do buttons. I know Bendy would wear a button! :thumbsup2

[Karen Mouse]

Gotta head back to Ellis' school tonight for a meeting:rolleyes: - how come Neil always manages to stop away in a hotel on nights like these?

While I'm in school being lectured on exams he'll be in a pub then restaurant with his workmates:rolleyes: - I guess I drew the short straw:sad2:

[oybolshoi]

Or, you could do 2 t-shirts, one with the BOB logo and one with the Mickey Pumpkin logo!

[GOS]

Good morning folks

What a night!

We had fairly bad weather forecast overnight last night - boy - they got that worng! -FAIRLY BAD???? - HOW BAD WIZARD OF OZ BAD????

We had things blowing everywhere and the noise was horrendous. Barely slept. Neil gave up at 5am and went to work. He had to drive to Wales and the forecast there was real bad so I was panicking til he called to tell me he'd got there fine and it was lovely and sunny there:eek:



We had some weird weather as well Karen all day.

[GOS]

Wow!! :eek: How much is a liter of petrol right now? $2.50 approx.

[Timon]

I want to do the round on the front with our DIS name and real names (Cass, Sweet Pea, Can I get some help with that? :lovestruc ) and the Mickey Pumpkin on the back. Not sure what color yet.

Absolutely sugar plum :goodvibes :lmao: Lemme know what you want and I shall do it for you!

The trick with doing iron-ons on both sides is to NOT have them in the same place. If you do the front near the breast pocket and then on the back do one lower down in the middle then you won't have any problems ;)

Sweet kitty! :lovestruc

LOL, if you knew him you wouldn't say that :rolleyes1 :rotfl: We should have called him Lucifer :rotfl2:

[GOS]

Been looking at Desert Inn and Suites...against the Paradise Pier for our up coming CA trip
BLOODY HELL...:scared1:

Paradise Pier=Hotel only $810
Paradise Pier=Hotel and 4 Day Park Hopper® souvenir ticket $1744(that's what am booked as of now)

I think we'll only be at DL on the Friday so the day in Disneyland is costing me $950:scared1: I THINK NOT SIR...


OR

Desert Inn and Suites=Hotel only $327
Desert Inn and Suites=Hotel and a 2-Day Park Hopper $857


Becky was it you that said you'd stayed here?...If so would you stay there again?...Thanks...:)


How about the Disneyland Hotel..is it not cheaper?

[GOS]

$3.60. You sure Chris...that'll be £1.80 a litre. It's £1.08 down in London.

[oybolshoi]

$2.50 approx.


we're at $3.00 per gallon for "unleaded" gas. For mid-grade it's $3.10 and premium is $3.25. After seeing the closing pricing on crude today ($108 per barrel ... :scared1: ) I'm sure those prices will jump another 25 cents by the time I leave work tonight.

I miss the good old days of $20 a barrel oil and 99 cent gasoline. :sad2:

[minnieandmickey]

Becky is the one who recommended it to us and she said she would stay there again.

Sorry to answer for you Becky but I thought I would add my two cents. Correct me if I am wrong

I would stay there again. Haven't been there for awhile, but what I do like is that they have the suite, sitting room and a bedroom that has a door that can be closed, plus a microwave and fridge. It's definately not the Ritz, but it is a decent place to sleep in, and it is walking distance to the park, probably just as far as you would walk if not closer to the Paradise Pier.
1st floor is parking, then the uppers are rooms, they do have elevators.



I miss you Baby :love:

3.52 here in CA, and that is the cheaper stations, just to let all of you know back east we are looking at possibly $4 a gallon come summer if not sooner. If it wasn't for our pop up trailer I would be looking at cars instead of SUV's come November.

[GOS]

Ok..as no one answered me, I'll ask again...;)

Panini's....where exactly?

Goofy's Galley?

Looks like the fat bloke is getting his Gallons and his Litres mixed up Petrol price today is $8 a gallon...

BTW...I don't own a car anymore *** it's far cheaper to hire one when i need one rather than have it stood on the drive for weeks at a time....And car hire can be set against your tax bill...:rolleyes1


How about the Disneyland Hotel..is it not cheaper?

No it's not the Hotel price i have a problem with it's the 4 day hopper pass that comes with my booking that i simply won't use,$950 for DL for one day is steep even by Mickey standards...:lmao:

It's insane, isn't it?

When I first took the job I have (nearly five years ago) I think gas was about $1.25 per gallon. It's getting very hard to justify a 60-mile roundtrip daily commute with $3-$4 per gallon gas. If this keeps up I'm really going to have to make a budget. :eek:

Oh, I don't think it's going to get better anytime soon.

I know we're cutting corners because of higher prices on gas (and everything else)....

I don't understand what causes the prices to go so high though? :confused3

Becky SOD JEFF you go for it girl,when your driving it it like "Hey there little guy step aside and let me glide amma coming through".....:rotfl2: :lmao: :rotfl2:

Yeah I can't wait. The comment for Jeff is that we are leasing and give the car back vs purchasing, was not a very wise and economical choice, but live and learn. As for the Durango, Sean is bound and determined to buy American made this year.

Love learning the "Brit" sayings too! I have a teacher here that is from Britain and I try them on her every once in awhile. We tell her that she is teaching the kids the Queen's english here, and most of them can learn some of dat(as they say)

I'm no expert but a lot of this is plain old supply and demand. China and India are huge oil users today compared with 10 years ago.

Throw in political instability in many of the countries that oil is extracted from along with limited US refining capacity and OPEC's stance that they will not increase production (and why should they ... they're just being good capitalists) and you have the current situation.

Then consider how badly the dollar is faring against other currencies ...

Awwww crap ... I need a drink! :rotfl2:

I don't blame them - I'm surprised it hasn't happened sooner.

I'm just wondering how much longer OPEC is going to keeping listing oil in dollars - they could really stick it to the US if they switched to Euros. :scared1:

Good thing I bought a new card reader for my digital camera as my old one ate up all my shower pics!! Un-freakin-believable...I actually watched all the pictures delete themselves, one-by-one!!

Here is the only one I thought was good enough to steal off of Kristin's camera. Stacy's mom should have more pictures which I'll get later.

This is a picture of one of the games we played called: "Here comes the bride". Groups of 6 guests pick a card that has a dress part listed on it. Using tissue paper, they make that part of the dress.

Here are the grand results!!

:lmao: They look like bookends. :lmao:

Actually I thought the same thing when I took that photo! I didn't put them there either...they were sitting that way so I snapped a picture!

When they were kittens we had a hard time telling them apart - we called them our twin kitties. Elminster has a small white patch on his throat that distinguished him. Now, we can tell by their faces and the texture of their fur (Mara's fur is silkier).

[cntkg1]

Yeah, I may just do buttons. I know Bendy would wear a button! :thumbsup2


I might just do buttons too Shelley. Probably much cheaper than shirts....but now that Cass put the images on the colored backgrounds, I'm liking the purple shirt idea too. :confused3

BTW - Jen, are you a doll collector? I collected like crazy when I was younger but the habit got to be expensive and all of my dolls are boxed up in our spare closet waiting for the daughter I'm never going to have.

Karen, in all your pics you can tell you've got super soft gorgeous skin! It looks terrific with a little touch of sun :sunny:

Nancy, looks like that shower was fun! :hyper: Love the pic where you are all taking a pic...what was everyone taking of pic of though? The ship??

Mike & Robin, loved the video! She's persistant alright ::yes:: Love the baby shirt you were wearing, that was so cute! :upsidedow Mike mike mike...I'm glad you don't dress that way anymore hun...chicks don't dig knee-highs :smooth: :lmao:

Lori and Scott, Happy Anniversary to you guys :flower: How many years???

Woody, good luck tomorrow buddy! Go get'em tiger! :car:

Karen, if you decide to do the jetskis, fair warning that it ain't that much fun in the back. Rob and I did this in Jamaica and he had a blast but it really sucked for me in the back. It was bumpy, I got splashed a lot and it was hard to hold onto him even though his life jacket thing had handles on it near the back sides for me to hold. My bum hurt for hours! We are doing the jetskis on CC too but I want one of my own!!! :o

It was funny, we got off our jetski and he was grinning from ear to ear then he looked at me and I was a big old grump for an hour afterwards. I was like "Apparently you weren't on the same ride as me buddy!!" :rolleyes:

Thanks for the anniversary wishes. We've been married 12 years.:love:

[goofyfreak]

I believe that was on Key West and yes, we were taking pics of the ship from there. :)



Looks like scarey stuff Andy. And BTW...I'm going to love chatting with you on the ship. I love those accents you folks have out there. :lovestruc



Good morning to everyone else. I'm giving up coffee and tea starting today. Since I've already given up soda I guess that leaves me with good old H20 & milk. Wish me luck everyone. :scared1:

Good luck with no coffee or tea. Poor Chuck.:laughing:

Here's a pic of Candy.

I used to have to put socks on her because she would go way out in the back yard to do her business on winter days... her feet would get cold and she would lay down in the snow and we'd have to go out and get her. :rotfl2:

She's twice this size now. :rolleyes:

Hi Robin! :goodvibes


Nancy - that picture of Cabo is a riot!! I think you've been giving that poor dog alcohol ... :rotfl2:

That dog will do anything for a treat. :thumbsup2

Good luck with no coffee or tea. Poor Chuck.:laughing:

Yeah, that lasted for about 3 hours Lori. I have to have my tea. Since coffee is the big no-no for my throat I thought I'd pace myself with this "giving up" stuff. I don't want to over-do it ya know. :rotfl2:
I might get too healthy and then what would my doctors complain about then? :rotfl2:

Ok, while Kira is snacking, I put the round logo on different colour backgrounds so you could see what it would look like.

I like the purple too. :thumbsup2 Great minds think alike. :goodvibes

[cntkg1]

Oh and Lori? Don't give me too much credit for your anniversary sign. Someone else made the background and all I did was add the writing to it.

If you knew how long it took me to make my own BOBer sign, you'd laugh your skinny little butt off.

BTW...Sure would love to see a pic of the new Lori. :love:

[cntkg1]

I'm loving all the BOBapet pics. Keep em coming everyone.

Cass? How about Lilo and Stitch?

[Tart Annihilator]

BTW...Sure would love to see a pic of the new Lori. :love:

I was thinking about asking the same question.

Come on Lori. Cough one up. ;) :goodvibes

[cntkg1]

Later guys. Taking Cabo for a walk. Maybe he'll find Kristin's missing school book that Fed Ex insisted they delivered. $400.00 down the tube on that one!! :sad2:

[goofyfreak]

It's insane, isn't it?

When I first took the job I have (nearly five years ago) I think gas was about $1.25 per gallon. It's getting very hard to justify a 60-mile roundtrip daily commute with $3-$4 per gallon gas. If this keeps up I'm really going to have to make a budget. :eek:

I know what you mean. I drive a little over 70 miles one way!:scared1: I do ride share with someone though. That helps a bunch.

[Tart Annihilator]

This isn't a BobaPet, but Mike always laughs at me because I love cows.
They are so cute.

[Verandah Man]

Jen,

Love your bookends. :lmao:


Andy,

That is one big Kitty! WOW! :rotfl2:



She actually looks bigger in the pic because she was so close to me when I took the pic. I think she weighs about 12 pounds. She finally just now got down off my foot rest. I got home from work about 3:45 this afternoon and she was already sleeping on the chair with Angelina. She'll lay on the foot rest for hours on end.

[goofyfreak]

Now if we could only get her to count to 75 we would be good.

Tell MacKenzie she needs to come to VA and teach Julia how to tie her shoes.:goodvibes

[Dyerneeds]

I don't have any new pics. I don't like having my pic taken anyway.:confused3 Maybe when I hit the big 40 loss I will post one.:thumbsup2

well you'd better get used to having your pic taken. the photo-shoot for the girls of the kk2 calendar is approaching.:rolleyes1 :thumbsup2

[MinnMick01]

:woohoo: Well done Mackenzie:woohoo: - Ellis just gets velcro shoes:rolleyes1



The teachers really push the kids to learn how, to the point that if they don't learn they feel left out, so I am glad she finally learned.

[Verandah Man]

I think I've posted this before...


Candy :cutie:

I'll post a picture of our cat Handsome Pete when I get home tonight. :thumbsup2


BTW - Jen, are you a doll collector? I collected like crazy when I was younger but the habit got to be expensive and all of my dolls are boxed up in our spare closet waiting for the daughter I'm never going to have.

I have too many neices to split them between so I don't know what to do with them right now - some of them are fairly valuable.

Wow, you're observant!

Yes, I do have a small china doll collection. I don't think any of them are very valuable, but I think they're pretty. You should take them out of storage and display them. They're for you to enjoy!

[goofyfreak]

I am taking Alex to see The Jonas Brothers tomorrow night in Richmond. She is sooooooo excited. I am going to get me a pair of earplugs to wear.:lmao: A whole arena of screaming 10-14 year old girls doesn't appeal to me too much. But seeing her face will be so worth it.

[Verandah Man]

:thumbsup2 :thumbsup2
nice andy. did you use that dog as a coffee table?



Angelina had just finished drinking some juice and set the cup on Midnight's head to see how long he would let it sit there. That cup sat on his head for over 30 minutes before Midnight moved and the cup finally fell off.......:lmao:

[oybolshoi]

Our fur-baby ... Handsome Pete. We've had him since he was a kitten - he'll be 8 years old in July. He holds a special place in my heart because we picked him out just a few weeks before my brother died - having this little guy around really helped me through some tough times. He's a punk, but he's also a sweetheart. :love:

He hates it when we travel...

That's what happens to Lilo and Stitch too in the winter. I can see them hopping on 2 or 3 legs cus their paws are so cold. But they have the good sense to come inside, I don't have to go and get them :lmao:


I'm loving all the BOBapet pics. Keep em coming everyone.

Cass? How about Lilo and Stitch?

Sure I can scare up a pic or two. I'll find some good ones after supper :thumbsup2

Later guys. Taking Cabo for a walk. Maybe he'll find Kristin's missing school book that Fed Ex insisted they delivered. $400.00 down the tube on that one!! :sad2:

Oh no!!! Nancy...get Chuck to make a nice big wooden box with a lid on it and put a label on it "FedEx" and tell them to place all packages inside! :laughing:

I'm not a big cat lover, but our first cat was named Snowball. Hazel's mom's cat had kittens shortly before our daughter Kristen was stillborn back in April 1977. Hazel called me from her mom's house one day and asked if she could bring one of the kittens home. What else could I say but yes. The kitten was a pure white Angora, that's why we named her Snowball. Like you Brenda, that kitten helped Hazel and I both get through some tough days. We had snowball for more than 14 years. We had her put down a few months after we adopted Angelina, because Snowball's health started going downhill quickly.

:rotfl2: :rotfl2:

[goofyfreak]

those guys had it all at one time or another. pigs, cows, horses, ducks, chickens, even a spider monkey.(that was way before my time though),

Scott is like you. He grew up in the city and still loves going to mom and dad's and going out to the barn just to nose around.;)

[arielhead]

We had bunnies and chickens? Where was I? Or was that the good ole days before I was born?

We each had a bunny one year for Easter. They disappeared mysteriously. I don't think we ever knew exactly what happened. We only had chickens once. I don't think many made it.:confused3

[Dyerneeds]

when we were dating, i think robins mom was trying to get rid of me cause one day she said to robin," robin honey, will you go out and feed the pigs."
i think she thought that would scare me away.
robin was sooooo mad at her.:rotfl2:

[Verandah Man]

Do I see a hidden Mickey? or not so hidden?:thumbsup2


That's part on my pillowcase sticking out. A DIS'er friend made the three of us matching Mickey pillowcases and gave them to us during our August 2006 cruise. :goodvibes :goodvibes :goodvibes

:laughing: :laughing:
one of the first times i went to robins house her dad dumped a bunch of baby pigs out of a burlap sack on the floor and they bottle fed them.:scared:

We had a golden retriever named Buck; he liked everyone. He might roll someone over trying to get attention, but never hurt anyone!:thumbsup2

On the other hand, our grandmother lived next door and always kept an eye on us and our dates!:rolleyes1

I just heard on the noon news that it could take the body weeks to get use to the Spring Forward time change. I guess I shouldn't complain that it only takes me a few days to get used to it.

It was also stated that the body adjusts quicker to when the clocks are moved back in the fall, because we gain an hour of sleep.

Oh my, time for me to get back to work already..........:wave2:

Just do it my way, in the past 37 hours, I've been up over 35 of them. I'm ready to fall asleep sitting here and it isn't even 9:00 yet.

[arielhead]

Nite all. I need to grade a few papers and get some sleep. I need extra sleep to stay off the caffeine during this spring forward!:thumbsup2

[minnieandmickey]

We currently have 6 cats in the house, 2 adults and 4 kittens. We took pics of the kittens but of course Sean uploaded them at work.:confused3
Yoda we had for about a year now, and Miley showed up literally on the couch about 2 months ago, the same couch that had my favorite mexican blanket on and decided to give birth on.:headache: Kittens are 2 weeks old now.

Good deal Mark. I may have to start practicing for when we do have a WI Wii DIS Meet. (and Andy, that is Wisconsin Wii, not wee wee :rotfl: )

Mark, I sent you guys a PM.

[JLDSMD]

How about the Disneyland Hotel..is it not cheaper?

Paradise Pier is the cheapest of the 3 hotels at DL.

[Verandah Man]

OK, one last quick post. Angelina asked me to find a "funny" pic of her to share with a friend. I was just looking at old pics from 2002 and came across this one taken in the Magic Kingdom. I just showed Angelina and we both laughed so hard..............:rotfl2: :rotfl2: :rotfl2:

Night Andy.

I won't be on too long myself. I'm dead tired. I'm at pg 160 right now, so once I'm caught up, I'll be turning in.

[JLDSMD]

Sorry guys, no pet pictures from me. We don't have any other than DS's fish.

Suz is allergic to cats and DS is afraid of dogs.

[JLDSMD]

O.K., I've read the thread and now it is dead, so I'm going to bed.

[Timon]

Ok, so my geek husband is watching all the pre-flight online stuff for the shuttle launch tonight, so I am perusing photos and decided to share some with you.

What can I say, I am a scrapbooker, avid photographer and I take a lot of photos and love to share :rotfl:

Ok, let's start small....:lmao:

Here is a pic of Lilo and Goof...I've never seen them do this so I thought it was funny!

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/lilo-goof.jpg





And then, a few days laters, in the same spot...check this out...trust me when I say they never do this! :lmao: Lilo and Stitch

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/lilo-stitch.jpg

[Timon]

Then I have a couple of puppy pics....




No wonder we got them...

Can you tell which one is Lilo (hyperactive, playful one) and which one is Stitch (lazy butt!) LOL!

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/26.jpg

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/27.jpg


I KNEW I should never have gone to that kennel!!! :rolleyes: Cuteness will get you every time!!

[Timon]

Ok, now I wanna share some funny Slinky pics. :goodvibes




http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/slinky.jpg



We adopted Slinky in 2002 when he was one year old. He came from an abusive home and I felt bad for him. Unfortunately we had to get rid of him last year because he decided to use everything as his litterbox except his litterbox. We tried different medications and many different techniques to no avail. He's living the high life on a farm in Rimbey Alberta right now. He has what he's always wanted, FREEDOM!! :lmao: So he's happy and things turned out for him.

I've had cats all my life (the first five my parents let me name...all 5 of them Mickey! :laughing: ) but never have I seen a cat with more personality than Slinky. He was sooo funny! He found the funniest spots and here's but a few of them...I have more but can't find them.

My desk chair...the blanket is there because he shed like crazy and it was supposed to prevent any Slinky hairs getting all over my chair! :rolleyes:


http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/25.jpg


He claimed the top of the fridge right away!

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/24.jpg


As well as the little niche above the fireplace...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/23.jpg



The microwave..
http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/22.jpg



and my drawer for my dishcloths...which he opened all by himself!
http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/21.jpg


He also claimed the spot under my lamp above my desk..

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/20.jpg


Apparently, he needed to make a call on Rob's cell..

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/19.jpg

[Timon]

He loved bags of all kinds...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/18.jpg

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/13.jpg

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/10.jpg

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/3.jpg


Let's see...there were garbage cans...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/17.jpg



Sinks..

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/16.jpg


http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/12.jpg



Folders...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/15.jpg


The top of my shower (didn't think he could do that one!)

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/14.jpg

Chairs that were on top of counters while I cleaned my floor...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/11.jpg




Then we moved to a new house...and he found new spots.


The top of the fridge was first of course...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/6.jpg


Then there were the cupboards above the fridge!

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/4.jpg



NEAR the sink...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/9.jpg

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/5.jpg


Laundry baskets..


http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/7.jpg

Must have been expecting a fax...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/8.jpg


And then Lilo and Stitch came along and he found even more spots...

In their bed...
http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/2.jpg

On their kennels..

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/1.jpg


That's all I could find but there are more! :rolleyes1

We miss you Slink, you sure made our lives interesting :goodvibes

[Timon]

Oh, hang on I found some more in an older folder...:rolleyes1


He liked newspapers...


http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/slinkynews4.jpg

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/0002.jpg



Shelves...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/slinkysleepingshelf.jpg


http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/slinkycomputershelf.jpg


http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/0013.jpg



The TOP of the garbage (we had to buy the top because he would knock over the garbage every night but then he figured out how to pry open the top and take it off! He was a smart little $hit!)

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/slinkygarbage.jpg

Stools...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/slinkystool.jpg


He loved my desk..

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/slinkymickeysleeping.jpg

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/August040069.jpg

FULL laundry baskets!!

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/slinkylaundry.jpg

And cupboards...

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/slinkycupboard.jpg

But his fave was right next to flowers...

Can you see him peeking and licking his chops?? LOL!

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l120/timoncass/slinky04-03flowers.jpg



Ok, have I bored you all to death??? :confused3 :lmao: :rotfl2:

[A fat english gent]

Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it ...

It's a pretty fundamental rule of history that the King Turd of Diaper Hill doesn't stay so for long ... there's always another little crapper waiting to take you down. ;)

:lmao: :lmao:

It was the first thing we all thought of. :rotfl2:

Poor Cabo,give the lad a break he made a mistake...Can't blame the dog for wanting to improve his intelligence...:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

Then I have a couple of puppy pics....

Karen--where ye be???

[cntkg1]

Good morning all! :wave:

Great pics Cass. I had to laugh at a lot of those pics. Did you make it a habit of feeding your kitty on top of the fridge? Perhaps if you moved his food bowls and his bed to the floor?? :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

And, I spy, with my one little eye, quite a few Minnies in your house. Hmmmmmm, maybe you really do like her? :rotfl2:

My fav had to be the one where he snuggled up to your Mickey pencil holder. Smart cat! BTW...I have that same pencil holder (kind of). Mine has Mickey leaning on the cup with his feet crossed in front of him. :)

We had a cat many times while growing up too. Let's see, I had a Mitzy, Jessica, Mitzy (again), Piwackett, Coco, Ping Pong, So-what, and my longest lasting one was Kitty. I had her for 17 years! We had one dog who's name was Leepy (Lepcheun) ...a weiner dog. Then after Chuck and I got married we had a miniature schnauzer named Kipper and then finally Cabo San Lucas.

Gotta love those animals. :love:

[JLDSMD]

Karen--where ye be???

I think she went to the beach to see this big storm that is heading toward the UK. Suppose to be hurricane force winds and snow. :scared1:

Hey, isn't that the classic line, my dog ate my homework? :confused3

Here it is worse, my dog ate my textbook. She should get a pass from the teacher for this one. :thumbsup2

[JLDSMD]

Sucker....We'd have come away with them too Cass....:lmao: :rotfl: :lmao:

I had to go to the pet store to get a light for DS's fish tank and they had the cutest puppy there. Not sure what brand it was (see I'm not a dog person, I'm sure one of you would refer to it as breed :rotfl: ), but the guy said it gets to 80 pounds.

I have no idea how big that would be, but DS is only 52#, so it would be bigger than him. :scared1:

It was darn cute though. Whitish. Can't remember if it had any other colors - I thought it did. Good thing Suz wasn't with me.

[Karen Mouse]

Good afternoon everybody:goodvibes

Been busy this morning - started making my sofa cushions - I'm not the fastet at thaat kind of stuff:rolleyes:

I might just do buttons too Shelley. Probably much cheaper than shirts....but now that Cass put the images on the colored backgrounds, I'm liking the purple shirt idea too. :confused3

Buttons - where do you get blank buttons? and how do you get the image onto them?

Karen--where ye be???

I be here now!:goodvibes

:lmao: You're not far wrong Jeff - the forecast is even worse fo my area tonight. Neil keeps ringing up and asking about the house ridge tiles on the roof - yeah right! - I'm fine thanks Neil:rolleyes: ...you just stay in your nice cosy hotel and bar:rolleyes: - I'll look after the house, child etc...as long as your having fun dear:rolleyes:

Day 2 of diet is going well:thumbsup2 - just to let you all know - I put on every pound that I'd lost so I'm starting over:rolleyes1

I have til late july to squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze into a swimsuit and it aint gonna be pretty:scared1: - it might help clear a big spot on the beach in Greece though:rotfl2:

I did lots of exercise yesterday and then walked the long way to Ellis' school last night and back. I'm off on the treadmill now for an hour.

According to Dr Phil I shouldnt rely on willpower - I'll fail (gee - really!). I need to put into place alternative things so I cant eat at my week moments of the day - mine is 8.30pm once Ellis is in bed - (otherwise known as cheese and wine time:rolleyes1 ).

Not any more:rolleyes:

Have a good day people. If you see a mad aussie fly past you tonight it'll be me blowing across the atlantic so catch hold if you can. They reckon my area could reach up to 80mph tonight:scared1:

Toto, I dont think we're in Kanzas any more......
