My FIL just called me, he is at his parents house in Lincoln Nebraska and they are doing an extreme home makeover a few blocks away starting today, ending next Saturday. Dh is going down next weekend for a football game. The boys and I were going to stay home for JP's basketball game.. but that might change if the coach thinks its ok for him to miss the game. So excited -- the boys love EHM!!! They totally want to be Ty.

Tana...maybe you will get to spot that hunky Ty!!!!

I think we should stake a claim and if anyone sits down in that area, we go over and plop down next to them and ....

"Hi!"
"umm hi..." <nervous look>
"I like bananas!"
"thats...ahhh, nice."

"Do you like bananas?"

"umm, I guess..." <glance around for CMs>

"WAITER, 10 bananas please!!"

"Why did you..."

"I like the beach. Doyoulikethebeach?

"Well, yeah, I guess..."<starting to pick up their belongings>

"Do you mind if I sit here?? I like this chair! Do you like my shirt...its green"

"It's ok..."

"It's actually DisBoard Green...thats different!. I have a pin too...do you like it? My friends have them too!"

"O...K..." <quickly picking up the remainder of their things..>

"Oh here they come...they'll like this chair too..."

"Do you have a problem?!!?" <backing away...>
"Not anymore...have a nice day...I like this beach...its nice...it has sand and water and fish and ...did I say sand? I really like it..."

"well, I'll just move...thank you."

"Oh you don't have to move...I like talking to you...its such a nice day for a swim and playing in the....Hey look, a chicken!"

<as the non-DISer breaks into a full speed run toward the boat>

"Don't go...we'll need runners like you on the next visit to the beach...you're really fast! Hey...you dropped your stuff!!"

Can anyone hear the song with the lyrics "Daydream believer....?" I really can't be the only one can I?

One pair of tennis shoes, one pair of dress shoes (black), one pair of sandals, one pair of water shoes.

If I told my DH I was only taking 4 pair of shoes...I think he would faint!

 

[klineyqueen]

Target had them, but it was $35 for the jacket and 20 for the pants.

I saw them yesterday at our Walmart. We don't carry them year round and yesterday was the first I saw suits. FYI.

Here it is folks, direct from the "Pennsylvania Dutch Cookbook"

Chicken Pot Pie
4 to 5 lb. chicken, disjointed
4 or 5 large potatotes, whashed, pared, and cut in thick slices
3 large onions, cut in 1/2 inch slices
Salt
Pepper
Pastry (recipe below)
Water

Place a layer of chicken in the bottom of a large heavy kettle, cover with a layer of potatoes and then with slices of onion; season with a mixture of salt and pepper. Roll pastry out rather thick (about 1/4 in.) and cut into 2 in. squares; place on top of onions. COntinue layers ending with a layer of pastry squares on top. Add water to cover contents halfway; cover kettle tightly and cook over high heat just until boiling. REduce heat to low and cook until chicken is tender, 1/12 to 2 hours. 8 to 10 servings.

Pastry:
3 cups sifted flour
1 teasponn salt
1 cup lard or other shortening
5 tablespoons cold water

Mix with fork and roll out on floured surface and cut into squares.

I have not tried this in a crock pot but will this weekend. Last weekend I wimped out and baked one of those frozen imitation potpies with a pie crust on top. Good, but not pot pie.

It is cold and rainy here and we need some good comfort food.

That is basically our recipe...we add celery and carrots.

The kids are watching Charlie Brown's The Great Pumpkin right now. It is hard to believe that my kids are watching the same things I did as a kid. I think they said it was the 40th year for this show. The classics never get old. :

we also had that on at our house!

My DH said he want a bumper sticker that says "Smile, It confuses People."

 

[klineyqueen]

ok peeps..... Ding is a software program from southwest airlines that you download onto your computer......

Then you can set it up to pick the airports you want to see the special ding fares.... When a new list is available your computer supposedly dings (like in the SWA commercial.... Ding fares are not available on-line or over the phone.... Yes you can use a credit to purchase them..... Dings are only valid for a short time ...Like say it dinged now...That special may only be bookable within 3 hrs or something like that .....

If you want to rebook a ding fare later on (say a week or month later) you are subject to what ever fares are offered then (not the original fare)

Thank you!!! Now I know!!! I feel much better!!!!!

 

[klineyqueen]
