Wow! My one (and probably only) !

Good job Charlotte!

Alright.... who's kid gave mine the 103 degree fever and headache!??!

He's fell asleep as soon as we got home. I'll be working from home tomorrow... (more Dis time!)

 

[MrsMork]

It's that or another guitar!

OY!!

Everytime you mention Aaron I think of DH! This one gave me a really funny image in my head. Can you just see me doing this to DH!

Now sweetheart you have your nice clothes on let me tie this napkin around your neck so you don't get all messy....

Andy,

I am reading these slowly and i think you are telling me another GA tall tale! I have never seen that show and believed every single word you said. Now I am wary, I mean really, are their any texans or Arizonans on this cruise (except Aaron)... Armadillo....

LOL! The thing is the following week he knew exactly what someone was referring to about that week's show.

 

[pyramid2000]

Me! I'd say I'm about 80% packed already.

A friend of mine, and fellow VietNam Vet, was once asked what it was like to be in VietNam. His answer really hit home with me and made me realize why I was so stressed all of the time too. He said to think about the 'Scaredest' you ever been in your life, then multiply that by 24 hours a day for 365 days. THAT was it exactly. I did 2 tours and was a mess with me and I'll Kick Your A** kinda person and that was not good. SO, now I am DrHug, and have adapted to the PTSD on my own. It's just not worth it to stress to death. I still get tweaked once in awhile, by something or someone, but am able to instantly cool down. Not to say I was a bad guy running around looking for trouble, but I did have a temper problem and if someone mistreated someone in a bad way, or cussed in front of my kids, or was overtly threatening in any way, I was in their face. Laughter and not taking life so seriously is much better. AH, poor MrsMork. How she must have worried about me. Sorry. But, hey....this is a good place to vent... I usually don't open up about that stuff too much. But...

I Feel Good.....................James Brown.

By the way....Happy Veteran's Day to all you Veterans out there. I was bunkered up for the weekend. And to all of the Awesome guys serving everywhere. I Salute you. I know the guys in Iraq and Afghanistan are feeling what I just described. God Bless you all.

Oh Dr. Hug,

I am so grateful to you and all of the soldiers who lay thier lives on the line. Thank you!

I heard, I am just trying to figure out how they are going to become wealthy so they can afford to take all of us in our old age. Since Savannah has decided to become an Ice Skater, she may have to sell a Kidney. Of course Sophia could be a famous model and Kaitlyn could be a movie star, so maybe you all will take pity on us with a non professional athlete.

Wouldn't that be funny though? There are some very very cute 7 - 10 year old boys in this group, and they are from good families... In 10 or 50 years maybe a DIS wedding?

ON CASTAWAY CAY!!!

Kaitlyn wants to grow up to be an illustrator. Now where could she find a job doing that?

 

[pyramid2000]

I have to get Samantha a new pirate outfit...she has outgrown the one she had....!

Dina has outgrown her Cinderella shoes as well. Tried to put them on today...

 

[MrsMork]

No Christmas decorations for us. We have too much other stuff to worry about bringing. We will enjoy the decorations elsewhere on the ship.

Us too.

You not talking about Emmitt Brown, the Doc from Back to the Future, are you?

Ha ha... And he WON tonight!!

 

[lbgraves]

I had DSL for about a year and had outages a lot. Finally I switched to cable and really like it. I had cable for three years in OKC and have it now here in MD.

So is it worth the extra $180 per year?

 

[lbgraves]

No other wrap here. I try to get extra air out of the bag.

Just another stupid habit picked up from childhood.

 

[pyramid2000]

Okay - who is volunteering to be Becka's personal wardrome police????


I guess I can do it since we will be close by!

Becka - each morning , come knock on my door and I'll check out your outfit.

And you will make sure she is dressed properly?? Can you trust this Becka??

 

[lbgraves]

Becka, as long as his fever doesn't get too high, don't worry about how much medicine he takes. Give him a cool bath or a cool washcloth on his forhead. His body is fighting whatever it is. Thses things will help keep him more comfortable.

That's right! The doctor even told me that when DS had a 104.2 fever at 2 am when he was 3. The fever is fighting the bad things in his body. It is just doing its job.

 

[MrsMork]

I got mine cut on Saturday and it is a bit shorter than I usually like.

It will grow back, Brack!!

 

[pyramid2000]

Becka - I hope he feels better soon!!!

My DS left school early b/c he said he wasnt feeling good...the mom instincts raised....here some kids told him the costume his mom made (Remember the lion episode) was "stupid" and that hurt his feelings. Soooo....we had to sit down and understand that kids do mean things. I asked him if he liked the costume and he said it was great. I told him it wouldn't hurt my feelings if he didn't wear it. (one of these days I'll post a picture)....


...but hang in there Becka. You've been thru so much latesly. Wish we lived closer....I'd bring some soup over for him and a bottle of Margaritas for you!!!

Karen, they are so young! I'm glad DS likes it!!

So is it worth the extra $180 per year?

Here the costs are the same; DSL might be a little less (hard to say with all of the specials both keep running). I think you have to get a local answer. (Which provider works better... and what is better in your neighborhood) We have one of the best DSL connections in our neighborhood because of where our house is located. And too many cable customers in one area can be a problem.

I am really glad to see you are enjoying the iPod Dennis!

Nice to see that Angie is enjoying it too.

Did you know you can buy a thingy that splits the output to two headphone jacks? As much as you two enjoy just sitting together, I can just see you on the couch with that iPod, both with headphones on, holding hands and smiling.

It is one of the BEST things (gadget wise) that I have ever bought.

DGS got one so he and his buddy can watch movies. We are getting one.
