Lol, he is loosing up lately. He loves Paris. Subway is a last choice for me as well as jimmy johns. Firehouse is a good choice our a boars head public sub. Wish we could send some of our heat and sun over to you for a few days. We could use some rain. The sprinkler system has been working overtime here! August is a busy birthday/ anniversary month for us too. Still might try to fit in a short USO trip the end of August. My DS10 is trying to convince me he is ready for HHN during our October visit. I'm really on the fence and it will probably be a last minute decision.

I adore Paris!! Probably one my favourite European cities Been there over 15 times. DH proposed to me at the top of the Eiffel Tower.....despite my terror of heights......lol........

Any heat will be appreciated :sunny:.........never known so much rain in July! We haven't used our sprinkler system this year at all!!! Oh definitely get a trip fitted in for August.....why not, one of the advantages of living close. DS is 10?? Good luck with the decision for HHN! I'm an old grump with kids there......::yes:: I wouldn't allow them till they're at least 30 :laughing:
 
JJ is fresh cut meats at the place.
free delivery even if you only want one sandwich of $4. xx

decent hours and eat in tables/chairs.

the bread is so much fresher than subways and that makes me prefer JJ to hit.

we have a lot of fast food places in our city all on the main drag in town.
could go a week and still not hit every place different each day.

i have one son that prefers subway so it is not unusual for me to go to two different places for pick up orders in one evening.
 
Hi :wave2:
Currently hearing thunder and hoping for a downpour as it hasn't rained for a few weeks here and everything is all dried up with temps in the 90's.

Looking forward to our beach trip in a few weeks although I haven't lost the weight I was hoping...did you know a bag of Doritos weighs 3 pounds after you eat it?

Now I want a Subway sandwich....not on my diet either:laughing:

You're allowed a Subway Vicki..........posted before I meant to there!!!

I'm just glad I can't eat Doritos anymore.......especially the spicy ones.......but I have found alternatives that don't have msg in.......it's a downward spiral some nights......lol.......I forgot you have your beach trip soon.........:)
 


Good Friday morning ............:D

Just after 6 and I'm wide awake......well.....kinda wide awake..........

Grocery shopping again today..........have my chauffeur take me (DS) as its a big shop today....he's thrilled at that part........:laughing: DH arrives back at 12 then hopefully do something nice this weekend..........hoping the weather heats up......it's August tomorrow :sunny:
 
almost 1 am and i'm wide awake too..........

when i saw your post schumi, i thought, isn't this a tad early for her to be up.....

son and i went out to eat at a local soul food place.
still feeling stuffed so decided to tidy up the house a bit.
this turned into shampooing the carpet in one of the rooms.


then had to sit up to 11:00 tonight in order to book my fp+ for the disney trip.
i know they allow people with room reservations and tickets already purchased can book midnight EST on the specific day out.
since i am CST, it allows me to book at 11 pm
i've used the motherland fast pass system for past trips and it was not difficult to set my rides/times up.
this time around, not much of a variety to choose from....

holy cow !
i had to change ride choices a few times before i could finish my 3 choices.
none of the rides/times were very good.
i went with the lesser of the evils in deciding which option to go with.
i'll live with what i got.
 
Shampooing carpets at this time......:scared:

You need to go to bed before you think about doing anything in the dining room.......:rolleyes1:duck:that can wait!!!

Yep......far too early for me to be up........well, technically I'm still in bed........:cloud9: But getting up soon so we can get shopping done before it gets busy. I hate supermarkets when they're busy.


This really is something about nothing........why do people feel the constant need to announce they're Disney fans or they're Disney people or they won't be disloyal to Disney when you mention Universal. Had a very odd conversation earlier with someone........I was asked about Potter and this other person kept chipping in........:faint:

eh, dining room on the list for august.......lol

that's a good question!
sometimes i read posters not call UO by name but say, the "other" place/park.
i never figured out why they use a code for the darkside.


if someone posts on the darkside forums, they don't have to take a pledge to join the red headed step kid family.
quite a few of us post in all the dis forums but we wisely don't make comments such as, why doesn't the motherland have a spiderman ride....
 
Hey it's Friday!!! Going home tomorrow can't wait.

Schumi, I get that all the time down here with that Disney crap. I tell people no way, my heart is with Universal and that's how it's staying for the foreseeable future.

When I go on vacation (home) I don't want to plan a thing besides the dates!
 
other than subway:scared:(franchises here are yuck), don't have the big chains. our go to is Bob's subs or the primanti sammie

mac you can switch around your FP selections even the same date. Have found that we always get what we want with a bit of maneuvering. naturally, the eticket attractions call the remainder of the shots. I have found that we've been forced to arriving earlier than I'd like in the day at the parks when it's busy; otherwise, it's difficult to pull a decent 4th & onward tix once you have utilized original FPs. Ah, nothing like Disney hoops is there?

last minute found out DH is unexpectedly off work for over a week just as well that SWAs flights have jumped in price or we'd be :tiptoe: back to Orlando lol Maybe the chore list will get a dent in it

it is date night! to new mission impossible flick tonight...anybody but tom cruise.:duck:

supposed to catch a rain-free weekend here. I'll believes it when I sees it.

good weekend all!

That stinks on the flights. You need to move within driving distance.

I forgot this.

seriously, anything under 8 hour drive and it would wreck havoc on our budget haha. have a great time, how many days you staying this time? is it a back-to-school sort of trip?
 
So happy it's Friday! Keisha, it's funny, last night DD said she'd like to see the new Mission movie. I'm not a Cruise fan either. I was non committal. Maybe she can have a friend go with her instead of me. Union game on tap tomorrow night. Should be great weather.

Have fun at the parks Bluer. We'd be there next month, but darn school soccer is getting in the way. Still getting used to saying I have 2 high school kids now. Growing up too fast!
 
happy friday DSP!!! (darkside peeps)

@Bluer101 say hello to the minions for me

@schumigirl your "i adore Paris" just made me smile. i just adore the word adore!!! Mine usually precedes the word champagne or prosecco - but i feel a visit to Paris is needed just so i can say that i adore it!! it is on the bucket list. sending mummy dust that the cushions get some sun.

@tink1957 i prefer jimmy johns or firehouse subs to subway. since we moved the "burbs" - the closest i have is publix and / or subway. at JJ you can get your sandwich wrapped in lettuce instead of bread!! #winning

@Lynne G they ARE growing up so fast. DD(2) starts pre-school Monday and I am like SLOOOOWWWWW DOOOOWWWNNNNN. DD (3) has a late birthday so she is still in pre-school and not pre-K! so i am holding on to that. i may need to be medicated when they are in high school.

@keishashadow maybe the flights will go down! happy date night. let us know how the movie is.

@macraven i have been trying to learn about fp+. since we are all in the circle of trust here - that is the reason i haven't gone back to the motherland. most of our trips are impromptu and the new system just doesn't seem like it is last minute friendly (we typically go during the summer). i need to do a recon trip and figure out how to make it work best for us.

Happy Friday all :wave2:. Sounds like everyone is happy and busy.

Gym this morning then a swim. Sun is shinning :sunny:

We were at a local restaurant and my grandchildren were talking about our trip to Universal and lady at the next table pipes up and says "I would never take my grandchildren there .We only go to Disney World". My grandson who is 11 said "I am glad she is not my grandmother" :dogdance:

My thought is go where ever it makes you happy and for us It's Universal. :flower1:
