Nancy G - That is so sweet. I love the anniversary rings too. Thank you! There are 3 people with my daughter's birthday (11/14), so that was cool to see too. Thanks again!

i liked the unedited version better karen.

I thought you might somehow

My only concern with crowds is not being able to do the rides that DS would want to do....

I'm hoping everyone will be in the line for the Nemo subs, and we can get on to what we want

Jen when we went it was heaving. You could lift your feet off the floor and still move along - think of a can of sardines then double it Its all good fun though. The atmosphere is brilliant, and even if the queues are huge its still magical being there.

Yep, got my 30 pound WISH banner posted this morning!!!!!

Ya big show off - only kidding Andy - thats an awesome acheivement

Oh Nancy - you're just too organised!

Thank you

Isn't something else happening Nov 22nd?

 

[Karen Mouse]

The house is all tidy, the food all prepared, the garden chairs are all washed down and dried, the table is ready, the plates etc are all ready... I think I'm ready to party!

2 hours til party time ... might have a nap

Andy's 30 pounds F.O.?

I still want to work at the Disney store!

How are you feeling this morning, Miss Pixie?

And thanks to you and Mike for putting that stupid Little Bunny Foo-Foo song in my head last night! I was singing it in the shower this morning! I think I can return the favor by having the Pancake Sisters serenade Dawg on Deck 10 one night...

Good morning,

Congrats Andy. I am losing this battle, Did get to the gym last night and again this morning. I am thinking of joining WW. I think I need the weigh ins doing this alone I have no will power.

Happy Saturday all.

I too would like to move south some day and work for the mouse.

Why do I not get the turkey?

Yes, Little Bunny Foo-Foo can surely stay with you. I am doing much better today, thanks! I got over my fear of taking pain medication again, so I got rid of my headache. A pancake sisters serenade - I think we can manage that one night; we'll have 7 of them, for godoness sake! I keep wondering if my current employer is going to be okay with my taking 5 days off school. If I go back to public school, I can accumulate vacation, and it is not a big deal. But oh the difference in students and the ability to teach as I want.....

Good morning,
I too would like to move south some day and work for the mouse.

For almost 10 years now (on second thought, it may not have been that long), Mack and I have seen ourselves working as retirees for the mouse. I have recently started asking myself why we should wait until we retire. I haven't come up with a good answer yet. The only thing that even poses a speed bump is considering where our kids and future grandkids will be. I feel cdertain my son will move out west, and who knows where my dd will end up. I just want to be able to go to grandkids' games and such. I know we shouldn't be thinking about 2 more moves/home buyings at this point in the game.

The night we had dinner in Palo with Jim Lewis, there was a couple that had just retired and moved to Florida. They got to work together on Toy Story Mania and they were just loving it! Unfortunately, I hear that the Mouse has a hiring freeze on right now and there is actually a waiting list for jobs

If I were the Disney casting director, Pixie, you would be cast as Tinkerbell, flying down the zip line from Cinderella's Castle every night. Mack would be cast as Merlin in the Sword and the Stone Ceremony!

I love zip lines! I like your thinking!!! By the time we ever retire, the economy will have had plenty of time to change a million ways, so hopefully the sunshine will return to Florida and melt any freezes!

What are you up to today, Trixie?

Us too I want to be the baby sitting Grandma. DS # 1 I can see staying here and settling down. # 2 once he joins the Air force we many never see him again unless we got visit. He just wants to travel and see the world!!

We too are having a hiring freeze, purchasing freeze and lowering all the front drsk hours to 32. It's kind of scarey.

I just completed a bunch of errands and now I'm taking a little break, spending some quality time with the kitties.

Believe it or not, I have fired up the crock pot and I have a pork butt in there right now! I used Dan's recipe, with a slight variation. I thought I had regular beer in the fridge but it turned out all I had was Guinness. I also used the seasoned pepper I bought in Tortola last April. So, we'll see what happens! It sure smells good

Oh I am sure it does! I wish I had put something in mine this morning. I believe my dear groom will proclaim tonight pizza night though. We'll be watching football once he gets home.

I have a great photo of Father Frank explaining the pancake sisters to our dear Sean. I am not sure I know how to do this - but let me try to insert this picture here -

OMG, Mimi! That's hysterical! He's going to love it!!! Notice Frank is wearing his DCL watch!

Frank's expression is so earnest; Sean's is so confused while trying to remain polite and professional - it cracks me up! And of course, this is what he was explaining -
