Hey all! Quick note because its super late (Hi Karen and Heather!!)

Had an AWESOME day today!!! I skipped all my conference stuff today and decided to explore Chicago! Sooooo much fun! I will do a mini-trip report later when I get home, but I wanted to share a couple of pictures of my visit to the SKYDECK (at the Sears tower - now called the Willis tower).

I stood out on the "ledge" - a 4 foot by 6 foot deck that is made out of clear glass (or something like that). It is SOOOOOO freaky and cool!! There are 103 floors up....

Here are a couple of pictures:
Fatty Fatty Fat me.... (WW starts when I get home)

View from one ledge/deck to the other one (there are 4):

View looking down

Going to bed now - it's 12:30 am Chi-town time. We are going to the White Sox game tomorrow afternoon and then back to the train to head home.

 

[Dyerneeds]

hey angie. skip that game in chicago and head north to WI. lots of nice folks up there. (plus they have those money trees.)

Oldest WWI veteran dies aged 113

A Brighton care home announces the death of Henry Allingham, the world's oldest man and one of the last surviving WWI veterans.

A very sad day today for a lost generation mostly forgotten,but for me a generation made up of real people who were proud to be British...


Morning Mike,goodbye mike,Live Footie is back thank god....

 

[cntkg1]

Yup, it's 4:50 am and MG is up already too. Actually, I've been up since midnight.

Two kids off to Arizona sad1 and the other two are on the early flight to Vegas for 9 days.

Time to get those sleepy heads up and off to the airport.

 

[cntkg1]

A "Stoooopid o'clock" FO for me first?

 

[cntkg1]

Angie, you are one gutsy lady. I don't think I could get myself to stand out there long enough for one picture and you did several??


(Morning, Schnoogums )

 

[GOS]

Happy Saturday everyone

Sorry Heather, I think you're mistaken, that was OUR porthole!:

(HHHMMMM, not the same porthole is it? OK, You can have yours and we'll have ours!)

We can share

 

[GOS]

hehehe. i like it that way. always keep the chics guessing.

happy to report my sweet polly is ok.

frustrates us to no end to think this local surgeon was all ready to schedule a surgery, but Robin said NO, i want a second opinion. so we went to clev clinic 1 1/2 hrs away, and they said she was fine. absolutley no surgery needed. me thinks i'm going to go beat up a local doctor tonite.
thanks for all the

Excellent news

 

[GOS]

ok..now i'm really confused??
i thought it was ROBIN"s porthole.

Wow...it's gonna be one packed porthole. That's 4 so far thats staked a claim.

 

[GOS]

How do I tell?
I'm over it now. I went and prepared dinner instead... chicken breast with peas and sweetcorn, peppers and onions and cous cous and crisped up torillas

You should get a warning when you try to save the changes. Dinner sounded yummy.

 

[GOS]

Heather - where was the Mickey piccie taken? - was it in the terminal?

Yes, but last year on repo in California

 

[GOS]

If that doesn't work...there's always newtering.

Ouch...that's gotta hurt.

 

[GOS]

Those great porthole piccies have given me an idea

I'm going to get Ellis in there facing the glass, doing a diving pose.... it'll look like he's diving out the window

We should have a competition! - who can get the funniest porthole picture

That's a good idea. I'll have to get my thinking cap on.

 

[GOS]

I'm off peeps, have a good evening

Gotta get sorted for Ellis' karate class tomorrow.

Neil has managed to get some overtime for tomorrow

That should help nicely!

I also got 7 weeks wages today too - they pay us a retainer for over the summer holidays... I feel a shopping trip coming on

What you gonna buy? I'm thinking of treating myself to a Pandora Bracelet as I lost my silver bracelet in May. http://www.johngreeddesign.co.uk/in...&s_best_seller=&s_ring_size=&Formitems_Page=&

 

[GOS]

He's too cheap, he will just get wet.

Just showers expected this weekend, so he should be fine. We have glorious sunshine at the moment.

 

[GOS]

Cool!

Come on Rose...display those Googleys with pride.

 

[GOS]

So, In other news........


People renting their cars to drive down to Radisson, you are all keeping them and dropping them off in the morning before we take the shuttle?

How early does the shuttle leave? I'm hoping there is enough time to do this?

We're dropping ours off on the Saturday, Rose. Rick will drop me off at the terminal and then take the car back to the car rental people.

 

[GOS]

we like it too.
have you chosen which pic you'll use for the "girls of the BOB" calendar yet?
