OK I'll give you this last one before you leave, as I will catch up to your count while your gone......

For the record, it has been 5 yes I said 5 years since I have been to Disney parks....2007.....so I soooo need to go. I'm really being pulled by talking my daughter into going or taking that money as I really need new bathroom floors in both of my bathrooms and getting them done.!!!! I have been looking at tiles already but havent come to a full decision yet.....I already spent a lot of money this spring and summer, a new patio door and a new driveway.....so what to do??

Well its Friday now this day just needs to speed by.....

gotta run

2007? Oh I don't think I can do that!

Sulley and I have been planning our May trip and just reached our 7 month DVC window this past weekend so we moved over to BWV, as we have never stayed there. We planned 8-11 May for Universal (yes, we are going to the DARK SIDE ) and 11-19 at BWV. Just getting ready to start planning our ADRs. Sulley was telling his mom all about it when he talked to her Wednesday night. (she lives in Tucson)
Today I get an email from my Sis-in-law...Sulley's brother and his mother decided LAST NIGHT she would fly up to visit them in NY and they would take her on a trip to Ohio to see her sister and then down to us to see us and her great-grandchildren. Dates? 7-21 May.

And without a mention to us about these grand plans, they bought airline tickets
we have ours purchased for May as well.

I love my family I love my family I love my family.......

I need to stop spending my house renovation on holidays! The joys of going from a new house you designed and built yourself to an older one that desperately needs modernising, so you always look at it with a jaundiced eye Like I tell everyone though, in 20 years time my kids wouldn't be telling their kids about the exciting times they spent picking out tiles and paint samples

Ah, Melbourne. I think it's the most beautiful city in Australia

One day we'd like to see Darwin. DH isn't into cities but Darwin is quite small and has a fair bit of military history. Cairns is nice too with the rainforest going right up to the beach but development is threatening its beauty I think.

Starting to do a little prep for the pending hurricane. Looks like it's going to get pretty nasty here the next 5 days or so. We should start to see some of the first rain and wind on Sunday and the worst is to hit on Monday. We jsut keep hoping a miracle occurs and it turns right instead of left.

I know what you mean...but my family is even worse!

I'm sure we will get it worked out. I may be rattling around in that one-bedroom at Boardwalk alone
not really....
We will figure it all out.

Our house is 18 yrs old...we had it built but at that time I didnt do a lot of upgrades as I could not afford it...so I still have the old linoleum floors in both the bathrooms...I really want tile floors so I think it about time. I dont have huge bathroom's but they are both "decent size" so I dont think the tile will cost alot, but I would get someone to lay it....Wally is very handy but with his bad back, I dont think he should be doing that.

anyway....once I get a price on the tile, I may still decide to convience daughter to take a trip with me

We have a 110 year old tudor in Philadelphia, so we feel the pain about renovations. Always something needing fixing.

We get some of our work done through home depot or lowes and take advantage of the no interest
