i guess you could guess that, huh? (how is that for unelegant wording followed by more unelegant wording?)

I must confess.. I didn't learn thatword from my 2 years of German lessons. I learned that from Monroe (tape it every friday night.. Grimm!) I didn't know that meant bloodbath.. gee, monroe is so sweet! (nasty alter ego, though)

I am sooo looking forward to your butt... er your but... I mean your rebutt... Hmm still not quite right. Oh well. Hey Smidgy and Nebo, don't forget that Winkers (my better than me half)has started her tr in England, Paris, and DLP! (sorry, just had to hi-jack your tr) I'm done. Last time for a hi-jack. Enjoying everything and everyone so far!

at my age DJ,. any man looking forward to my butt is fine with me!!!!.

and, by the way, I Have been following cheries report...guess I need to catch up, tho.... will do!!!!

[cp'ersmom]

2 days and 4 pages already! Nice! Exciting to have dueling tr's between you and Ponzi. My family will really think I've lost it with all the LOLing!

I have to admit that I was a little concerned about you not taking too many Vikes down to the World. If you are in pain how can you enjoy it! Kind of the way I felt about an epidural during delivery.

Hope this injury magically heals on the plane ride down and you are pain free and smidgy is grump free for the trip.

one time Nebo was going to pu tpeat moss in trenches for our new hedges. he was afraid of putting his back out if he hefted the huge bags. so.. he "carefully" tested lifting just the end of one bag.... oops! that did it!!!!

mari! hope you feel better soon, but in the meantime, hopeNebo gives you some laughs!!

Yep, it was just from opening the window. I reread my post and realized the pain meds were posting and I never finished my sentence.

You and Steve are such a delight to read on the boards. I can't believe you flew down, half of your adventures stem from your road trips, but it sounds like the flight is going to be an adventure too. Looking forward to the next posting.

Ohh I Love Grimm!! What am I going to do on Fridays for the summer?? I guess I will have to read trip reports!!

Holy smokes! I guess the ad on the Goodyear Blimp paid off.

(Sorry if this posted twice. Thought I hit submit, but I don't see it, so I'm retyping.)

Hi Nancy, so nice of you to be concerned for Smidgy's welfare.

I hope that you had plenty of little bottles...

Hello Shannon, how did the move to the south suburbs go?

As God is my witness I will never be low on vikes for a trip again!

Gee, a Nebo AND a Ponzi trip report... my reading list is complete now!

I hate that about your back, I sure hope it wasn't too bad during your trip... guess I'll have to keep reading to find out.

Dawn

Hi Dawn, welcom back!

I keep thinking... what the heck am I going to do all summer... THANK YOU NEBO FOR GIVING ME MY ANSWER!
I GET TO READ A NEW NEBO & SMIDGY TR! I have a feeling it's gonna be a good summer... until I get the newest installment in August!
I was expecting not to read any Nebs & Smidgy adventures until August, so I'm pleasantly surprised!
Thank you so much!
So glad I'm along for the ride.
Much like the car ride down there, being squished into the backseat with so many avid readers-- this time we'll all probably be in an overhead bin. I can barely fit a gym bag up there... I hope we all fit!

Becca it is a dead tv time right now, and now I'm done with dthe Hunger trilogy as well. Ok, let's see, ah, here, there's a littlle room left in the overhead bin for you.

Yeah Nebo, welcome to my world, getting schooled by a four year old. I know you have already experienced it with your boys, and now the fun continues with your grandchildren. The glowing teeth and eyeballs are actually funny and kinda neat and they change the whole perspective of the ride. DD is really creative. She thought it was such fun and of course, we had to give big reactions.

The really funny part was that on the last Winnie the Pooh ride of the trip, we had a couple right behind us in the honey pot and they realized what DD was doing. They cracked up and were helping get a reaction out of her! It was a cool/funny Disney moment!

Thanks for that Double D, I really look forward to being with kids again.

Going to be a fun summer with Laura and ponzi's reports to keep up with.

Can't wait to read about your adventures with TSA and on the AToD!!!!

Ah yes, Laura and Ponzi and Nebo,,,, the three stooges. Can I be Curly?

Have you tried muscle relaxers for your back? I like them and can get a really low dose - 5mg.

There there little O Kitty,,I'm a bit whelmed right now, nothing personal. And yes, tried muscle relaxers,,,, all they did was make me tired.

Even taking the laptop with me to the house of mouse next week and if lance dosen't end up at urgent care like last time might be able to only be a little bit behind. Glad you guys are back. Will we be having cookies on this trip? Ponzi has cookies...Just saying

Sorry Betsey, no cookies this trip, although I did toss mine once.

Oh, Brother's Grim,,,, good one!

My back went out.
We do everything we can not to hurt our backs and it is the little things. I was helping my dh put our room air conditioner in our Bedroom. I opened the window and like you, I woke up that nite and couldn't get out of bed. Thank goodness for stashed Vikes.

Get that next post up, or as many as you can and give me more to read.

Sorry to hear that, Marissa. But isn't that amazing? You look at the heavy airconditioner and say, "No Way", then you throw out the back opening the window!

Yes, you never know when that might cme in handy some day.

[Piglets Mommy]

YaY!!! A new Nebo trip report!!! Thanks for putting the link on facebook, Smidgy! Hopefully I can keep up this time.

I can't wait to read more. I am with Diane....I'd have been leaving early for the airport too. I am always worried about missing the flight. Plus, who in their right (Disney) mind can sleep the night before a Disney trip anyway??? Certainly not me! It stinks that you hurt your back...so much for not needing the vikes. Now to wait for the next installment.....

Wait, you didn't want a spinal block so you could feel the wonders of childbirth?

And Irene, as far as pain free and grump free,,,,
you know better than that!

It boils down to this:

Couldn't we do BBQ instead? I haven't had good BBQ in a long time.

I do so enjoy skewering a Nebo once in a while.

Nebo from the Black lagoon? You said that? Did you not learn anything from the Nebo Spike incident? Smidgy still has nightmares about that. I'm going to give you a free pass... this time.

Or maybe I won't...

I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess that didn't happen.

Hmmmm.... interesting. I'm curious to see how that all worked out.

Oh, I hear you there, brother.... I hear you there.

Sounds like fun.

Suitcase had a bottle of whiskey, bottle of vodka, Sunny D's,, it was much heavier on the inside than it looked on the outside.
Got that little "twinge" way down by the belt, didn't think too much about it,,,,

Oh, that twinge. You feel it and you think, "Oh, it's okay. Just a twinge. I'm fine. Really. If I ignore it, it'll be okay."

Smidgy, I really like watching Grimm as well! I thought the first few episodes were a little slow, but there are some great characters on the show. Monroe is great and I like Sargeant Wu as well. What do you think Adalind has given Juliet? And Nick's mom is alive? Wow!!

[cjlvsccm]

HI Nebo! Glad to see you back at the keyboard to share your adventure.


Oh, and you REALLY should try a TENS!! BEST PAIN-RELIEF E V E R!!! Seriously good juju, makes it all feel better!
