One of Scotts peppers just exploded all over my oven.

Now to figure out our DL tickets. We have kind of changed the plans a little so I am trying to see which tickets we want. Then I can go buy them at the Disney store tomorrow without Mackenzie and she will never know.

That sounds like fun! We're - we had to cancel our trip to AZ and DL this year - we have to spend the $$$ on waterproofing our basement instead.

Hi Jen

People want you to recycle but then they make it so stinking hard. Macs class was collecting cans for field trips. Well half way through the year they stopped so we told the grandparents who were collect to continue and we would trade the cans in for cash and put that cash in a college account for Mac. With my parents it is very little cans, but then Scotts dad just dropped off 5 large black trash bags of cans. Now I can not find a place to take them to.

I found a can place, actually 2. one is 10 miles away and one is 6.4. I guess Scott and I will do that on Sunday.

We recycle our cans. Last month we got $18! The price of aluminum is up right now. We put our can money in a jar for Disney. It has a flamingo holding a margarita on it. It's our Rita fund!

Oh no!

Oh no that is to bad. I think I would go nuts if I can not get away soon. And this trip is just the 3 of us. Well then my mother got a hair brain idea to meet us there one day. But other wise it is just going to be the three of us. Forget bed time we are going to run all day long.

That is neat. I just remember when I was a kid the places were everywhere, we recyceled paper and cans. Now there are very few places. Of course I am gready and want money for them.

Jen Sorry to hear that! I know you were so looking forward to that trip! We had to cancel our June trip because Woody will not have enough vacation time by then with the new job. It was supposed to be my big 30th birthday trip. We were going to go to Victoria and Alberts too. His bright idea was to just rebook V&A for October when we are down with my family. I had to remind him that my parents would never eat at a place like that! I wouldn't hear the end of it after they found out the price!

Sound like fun!!

I still need to call the hotel and cancel for the Friday night. We have decided that we will try to see Scott's family. I will need to drink heavily for that one.

That sounds great!

We are going up to Door County WI for a week in July...so we will get a vacation this year, but not DL

My in-laws (all of them - MIL, FIL, SIL, BIL, and kids) ALL booked for the Oct '09 cruise - I am a little (well a lot) worried about it...but I hope I'm worrying for nothing.

Does Arizona pay for aluminum? I know some states don't. We are at about $.70 per pound. We took 4 trash cans full! My inlaws give us theirs. They drink a lot of soda! Ours is a couple of sodas but mostly beer cans.

 

[MinnMick01]

figured out what tickets we need, but now I have to call the Disney store and see if they sell them. Anyone ever bought their tickets on line through DL. I am a little leary on the stand point that you print them yourself. They would not be the same as the cards.

No worries Jen!! Your DIS buddies will be there to give you all the support you need!!

Remember all the worring I did with my parents going. It was pretty much for nothing. I will keep my fingers crossed for you.

Jen do you know where Rippon College is? Just found out a very good friend of our is from WI- Green Bay area and did his undergrad at Rippon.

I was looking forward to it, but I sort of had to pick between AZ/DL this year and the cruise in '09. And OF COURSE the cruise wins. I will get a paper route and sell plasma if I need to to get back on that boat!

The basement is costing us quite a bit of $$$, plus with recession looming and the $$ of gas and everything else going up, we decided it would be wiser to wait.

Sorry you had to cancel WDW - we've been through that before. Pete had to cancel out on Door County twice now because he didn't have enough vacation starting a new job and then using his vacation for the '07 cruise.

Thanks - I appreciate it!

I have a feeling my bar bill will be much higher for this cruise than it was last time!

I believe they do. They used to. How can I find out the price? My inlaws are all beer cans, my parents are soda and our house is mixed. If they would make wine in a can I would be set.

I sure do, it's south of Green Bay, close to Oshkosh. I've never been there, but I've heard it's a nice school.

I wonder if you could look online....

I have a theory to can find almost any type of information online. I found a malaysian/english translator online once!

 

[MinnMick01]

I just found out that my Disney Store does sell them. I am transferring my money right now so I can go get them today. Jen, I will have Mac with me when I get them today. (the store is over by where her hair cut place and walmart are so I thought I would save gas and just do it all today). If she asks I am going to tell her I am buying them for you. So she does not find out about the trip.

I will try that when I am done transfering.
