Hey anybody out there???

Boards seem very quiet today.

 

[Viking]

Renee,
we're here

Anja's better. We're going to work out tomorrow again - Just some running, 8 miles or so, no upper body training.

We checked the 2004 calendar for our vacation planning today and guess what: I discovered that we will probably fly to Charleston on 9-11 I checked out the flights already and found a travel agency offering Frankfurt-Charleston/Orlando-Frankfurt for €1200 and Hertz only wants about $100 extra for renting a car in Charleston and dropping it off at the Cape.

Mike&Kathy, Dave&Ellen and Art&Cathy,
I sent the voucher today to DCL accompanied by the request to link our ressies again. I also requested an upgrade to a Cat 6 or 7, which should cost us $800-1000.

Renee, Great Picures! Thanks for sharing.

Olah,

This is Don, just got back from Mexico last night.

Beautiful weather, beautiful hotel(Fiesta Americana), ugly work.

Welcome Mr.Goofynut of the 4 f's.

Ohio State vs Michigan this week, best and biggest game of the year.

Well, I better go and spend some time with my family, Jen just got here to pick up Becca.

Bye everyone.

P.S. Kim I looked at the picture, but I was taking a nap.

Wow, even Art has posted. I will have to really work on getting Norm to post at least one time.

Cute pictures of Haley's Birthday party.

Welcome back Don.

I fell asleep during Survivor. Who got voted off?

The weekend is suppose to be beautiful in the 60's. Going out to see DS#2 hockey games again this weekend. Last trip to western PA until after Christmas break.

It was slow at work today, so went to do a little Christmas shopping. Plus bought my son's their Hess Trucks. I have been buying them nearly every year since they were born. So have 20 years of Hess trucks. I think I missed one year which DS#2 told me to go to yard sales to find it. Other than a few they played with when they were little, the rest are in the orginal boxes. I don't think the newer ones are worth as much as older models. It is my Christmas tradition to buy them every year.

Hope everyone has a great weekend.

[RellingTwin]

Eric, I've marked 9/11 down on my calander!When your plans firm up a bit, let me know how long you will be in Charleston before heading further south.
Rupert should be the winner! Oh well, maybe a spear gun maker will hire him as a spokesperson!He shpuld have gotten Jon out of there weeks ago!
I have to go into work today to finish unpacking the clinic. We have been at it for 2 days now and still have a lot to do in order to be ready for a full day of patients on Monday.

Hi Art

Great pictures!

 

[Twinave]

Hi Everybody!
Enjoyed my day off today! First one in 2 weeks. Stayed in bed reading most of the morning. Then brought DD shopping for a winter coat.
Welcome home Don!
Mother-in-law got sprung from the hospital yesterday. She is very happy to be home!
I'm going back to school! I've been looking into the RN program, and I plan on taking at least one of the required couses this Jan. It will take a long time, but the longest journeys starts with a single step.....right???
I won a turkey yesterday!

I was buying cat food and litter box stuff, and an anoucement came over the PA system to look for a number on the floor. And the number is....69. I looked down and there it was! I was the only person in the entire aisle! So then here come 4 smiling store employees with this great big frozen turkey! BINGO luck!!

Got to go to bed, work in the morning.
Later, Ave'

 

[jeanniec]

Ave -- How cool to have won the turkey! It seems as tho I never win anything. Great that you are going back to school. I always wanted to be a nurse, but everybody talked me out of it. So I majored in accounting and after 4 years of college and a degree in acct, no one would hire me because I was a woman. Yes, that was a long time ago. Worked in the mortgage business for a while, taught for a while (took my education credits while in college). Finally when the 2-year nursing program rolled around, I got my RN at last. My son who was only a year old came to my graduation! Then later I went back and got my BSN. After that I got about 1/2 of a MSN when I decided that I needed a break from school. I am ever so glad that I finally got to become a nurse. Was really hard to do with 2 kids and a husband and home to take care of, but I was really proud of what I accomplished and you will be, too. Go for it -- and good luck!

Hi Guys, this is Kim here...

I have finished with putting ID's on our group photo ( keep in mind that I am not an " artistic" type person). I could not remember the names for 2 men, both in the upper left corner of the photo, one man in a black shirt and the other an older man with a white dot on him so you can find him. If anyone knows their names then let me know and I can post them on the photo.

Bye, Kim

Maybe it is me But the Link does not take u to the picture KIM ??????

 

[Viking]

Kim,
the link doesn't work But the two guys in the upper left are Jeff/tigfanjeff (Blue polo) and Rich/Tulirich (White shirt).

Mary & Ave,
after rechecking 2004's calendar we found out that most holydays in Germany fall on weekends which makes is kind of impossible to stretch our meager 31 days So we will probably arrive in Charleston between 09/14 and 09/18, then go on to Savannah, then to Panamy City and finally to the Port. The total will be three weeks then. We'll know for sure 12/12 and get in touch with you then.

Hi guys,
Just got back from California a few days ago. I had a blast at Disneyland, but I gotta admit that California Adventure is a bit of a disappointment. TofT has not yet opened and Superstar Limo was down the entire time I was there. I enjoyed the Aladdin show and LOVED the roller-coaster! Other than that everything else was a "been there-done that" type of attraction! We got to see "The Producers" in LA with Jason Alexander and Martin Short and for me, that was the highlight of the whole trip (along with the fact that I got to spend 2 days with my son who lives in LA)

I will be having a houseful for Thanksgiving and need to devote my energy to cleaning, shopping and cooking the next several days. If I'm not able to get to this board, I want to wish each and every one of you now a very happy and safe holiday. I will certainly remember my DISboard friends when I count my blessings. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

Jeanne

Thanks for the help, however we still have one mystery man, he is in the top row in a black shirt and between Rodney & Doug, I placed a white round dot on him to identify him. Anyone tell me who this is ??? I will ge tthe link fixed and then everyone can have a copy of the group photo with names if they want it.

Bye, Kim

jeanniec, Thanks for the words of encouragement. I love being a nurse! But with 2 kids and a hubby, and 2 jobs it's hard to find room for school. But even if it means taking one class at a time, it's a start. Slow and Steady wins the race, unless you die first!
Eric and Anja, We are all very excited about your trip to Panama City. Mark is already trying to figure out what we should do and where we should eat. Guess it's his German genes showing themselves! PS, still can't see the list.
Bette and Kim, I have NO IDEA who the man is standing to the right >>> of Doug. Maybe just a cruiser who likes to have his picture taken????
jeanneg, Glad you had a nice trip. Would love to see The Producers! Hope you and yours have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Later, Ave'

Alikat99, so good to hear from you. And glad to hear that you are well into the 2nd trimester. Question...Do we have to wait till Christmas to learn whether you're having a boy or girl? We promise not to tell.

Sure, I'll tell you guys, because I know that family doesn't read this board. Actually, you guys all knew about my pregnancy a few weeks before my family found out. So, I know that you can keep a secret.
