Question for my Midwestern friends:

I am going to Chicago July 15th - 19th and I'm looking for shows to go to - any suggestions?? I've got a conference to go to and I may be skipping some of the "fun" activities (ha ha ha).

Any "can't miss" sites in the city you all know of??

THanks!

Hi everyone -
Tomorrow starts a "Biggest Loser" challenge at work. We are doing it in teams---hope I do not let me time down . The cost was $20 to enter with the money going to fight hunger at one of the food banks around the area. Plus our business will match $$ with the top to winners, which is cool. My goal is to just have a loss each week. In the past I have tried to set a goal weight and it has not worked, so I will try this way...maybe it will work . So this weekend is all about eating all my favs...tonight is Culvers ice cream...YUMMY!!

Yay Lisa! You can do it!! Competition and support always tends to help with weight loss. DH and best friend and me are all doing WW (best friend has cruise beginning of October).

You can do it!!!

Thanks Karen..all sorted now. Good to talk to you.

Hey does anyone know if it works for any of the games? Sean and I just got Clone Wars Lightsaber duels, that would be fun. We are however looking to get Mario Cart as well, maybe on the way home from Oregon where the isn't a sales tax.

Hi! I am trying to catch up on the thread. I am not sure about 6:30 but I will try. Spent most of yesterday in Nashville. Megan was there for a work thing and started having pains. They did some tests and think she may have croans. My brother has it. She will need to go to a colon specialist this week for tests. She is much better this morning. We got home this morning about 5:00 am. She is not happy that they have he on a very bland diet. No hot wings Her favorite.

I'm sorry that Megan may have Croan's. I know several people who have it and manage it fairly well but I slso know it can be a bother.....As for walking, 6:30 is a little early for me too. Maybe we'll have to make up a second shift. I might be awake at that time but the body isn't ready for exercise!! Remember I'm much older than you guys!

I just can't seem to keep up with this thread. But I really want to keep up with what everyone is looking at for meet ups, excursions, etc. now that we are getting closer to being able to book. Is there any chance we could start another thread that is just for that stuff? And keep this one for where we can post all of our general fun stuff and getting-to-know you stuff? Or am I the only one who is too slow to keep up with all of the posts? LOL!

welcome back guys!!
you have a magical time??

 

[Dyerneeds]

Dawg, you missed a lovely lasagne (even if I do say so myself)

i'll take your word for it.

 

[disgrits]

Welcome back! You'll have to tell us about your trip. Did you eat at the T-Rex? We leave for WDW in 9 days!

Matthew

Yes, we made it to T-Rex. It was lots of fun! The whole trip was great but the crowds got increasingly worse as the week went by. It seems everyone knows all the "tricks" to park planning. This may be the last summer time trip for us.....

Oh and it was hot. Florida hot. 100 degrees. We took breaks and drank water, and we grew up in Louisiana heat, so it was manageable.

Have you looked at Cass' BOB site? There's so much info there....

Also, I'm sure the conversations will start to be more cruise specific when we hit the 90 day mark.
