We were there Monday too! We had 4 teenagers with us and with a little hustling were able to get almost everything done before noon - some things multiple times! When the kids would get off Space Mountain they would get right back on - I think they did this 4 times before we told them to stop...

I'm trying to get myself in gear here and start planning my son's Open House. I'm hoping those of you who have "been there, done that" have some great ideas on things that went over well - and things that you wouldn't bother doing again. Any and all suggestions are more than welcome. It will...

Forking is sticking plastic forks into the ground - the more the better. My son and a bunch of his friends tp'd and forked the neighbors house two weeks ago and she is so mad at me she hasn't spoken in 2 weeks - go figure. Of course, it was okay a month or so ago when her son did it to someone...

I suppose you're right - in the grand scheme of things having the braces on for senior pictures isn't the end of the world. I guess I'm just frustrated but then again we've come this far...... Thanks for the opinions. These darn firstborn kids - no matter how old they get everything is a...

Personally, I would stay at Mission Point (and do every October!) They have 2-room suites in the Straits Lodge (not main building) with large outdoor hot tubs. It is very private and very romantic. The Grand is beautiful and I second the suggestion about going there for the lunch buffet if...

My oldest son has had his braces on for 3 years and is so ready to have them off. His teeth look beautiful to me, but I'm not trained and respect the orthodontist's opinion. Where the issue lies, is that her practice has become so busy that when she says "come back in 4 weeks" we can never...

One time I saw a truck coming up behind me driving really crazy, switching lanes, tailgating, making hand gestures. We were at a stop light and just past the light the road narrows from 2 lanes to 1 - it's a place where a lot of accidents happen and a lot more road rage - very poor planning...

I loved building our house and would love to do it again. Hopefully some day. The one thing is just keep in mind that no matter how perfect you plan it, once it's done you're going to find something that you want changed. It's inevitable. Our friends took 4 years agonizing over their...

I took the day off today (I'm sick - cough cough) and I'm finding that I really, really, really like being home. The funny thing is, I really like my job too, the work and my friends. I find myself missing work, enjoying the DIS but being bored at the same time - AARGH. This is sort've a...

My oldest son didn't want his license. He took driver's training and had his permit, but wasn't the last bit interested in driving. That was fine to me, especially when it was time to pay the car insurance. Then, lo and behold, he met a girl and decided he didn't want to be driven to dates...

Thanks for the words of encouragement. My daughter isn't so much the issue as it is some of her friends - they definitely think they're 16 and the moms support it. It doesn't help that it is a small private school and there are a whole whopping 8 girls in the class - so when one does something...

I'm sorry if this issue has been beaten to death but I haven't been here in quite a few months and I would like some "fresh" information. Is it possible to get through the middle school years and keep your sanity? My daughter is 12 and it seems like all of the girls in her class are all the...

I used to do transcription for two surgeons - I absolutely loved it. I worked in their office and it was probably one of the best jobs I ever had. After awhile, since so much of their dictation was repetitive, the one surgeon would just say "blah blah blah"...meaning that I knew what to add in...

My best friend just confided in me this morning that things are majorly bad for their family right now and she has to put groceries on her credit card just to get by. I've known this family forever and I know that she was venting not looking for a hand out. Anyhow, I would like to help them...

My heart is absolutely breaking over this and I wish there were more I could do personally. However, and this is in absolutely NO WAY putting blame on anyone, but didn't I read and/or hear that as people were being told to go to the Super Dome before the hurricane that they were instructed to...

My grocery bill will be slashed significantly! With 2 teenage boys and 1 pre-teen girl, it seems like I spend more time in the grocery store than I do at home. Can teenagers even walk past a refrigerator without opening it?????

Yep, you're right, 32 (30 for weights between 250 and 274) and an extra 2 for being a male under 19.

200 to 224 pounds is 26 points PLUS an additional 2 for males under the age of 19 (recommended that this be used in the form of a milk serving) for a total of 28 points.

I've just noticed the past few days that my dd, who will be 12 in a few weeks, has been acting incredibly babyish. It's nothing awful, just kind've whiny and pouty and sometimes clingy. I have also noticed that she is starting to develop, so I'm wondering if the two are somehow related.

I guess I should have been a little clearer in my original post. I have more like 35 pounds to lose - but it's the first 10 that I keep losing over and over again. I don't know why, but after I lose those first 10 pounds, I sort've fall off track and before I know it, those 10 are right back...
