Hi there Abby!!!

It certainly is Friday!!! It's felt like a loooong week...

Did my first weigh-in of 2008 this morning and I've lost 2lbs this week so a good start for me...

The twins have Caitlin beat, we took her when she was 5 months old, but then didnt go back until she was 8

My kids have never been, and I have never been for vacation, just work and dance team competitions. I said to DH last night all this WDW talk makes me want to go, and one of these years we need to go! He said he didn't like it there (he went in 1995 with his family, his dad earned a trip through work, and DH and I were just dating at that point). I told him then I'll take the kids by myself! So one of these years here soon, with or without DH, we'll go to Disney. My boss leaves tomorrow for a week there. Lucky!!

Oh Abby! You've gotta give it a go and, as it's so different from what it was like in 1995, I'll bet your DH would love it too!!!

How long d'ya think this'll go on for..???

This strike is unique in that it is not the typical battle between labor and management - you won't see picketing strikers huddled around a fire in a metal can toughing it out in this case. This is a case of wealthy employees striking against multi-million/billion dollar television companies. It's two wealthy and powerful sides at odds - big egos and all.

I say throw on some classic shows/re-runs. TV used to be a lot better, in my opinion.

Yes, I absolutely loved the first two seasons of Lost and then kinda got confused in the 3rd. DS22 bought my DH the 3rd season on DVD for Christmas so we 'll try and ketchup (I love that phrase - thanx Andrew... ) b4 season 4 gets under way...

Saw the trailers when I was in WDW in December - looks fantastic....

Thanks Joan!!! I think the absence of champagne and mince pies has something to do with it too...

My ds is an Arsenal supporter, but loves rugby as much if not more (we have London Wasps on our doorstep) - have just heard he has a chance to go on a 3-week tour to Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Canada this July playing with his school team, so I'll have to send him out to work!
