Congrats on 57,000 Andy! Enjoy it while you can because while I may be sick as a dog I am back and I just can't have you getting major 's on my watch!

Well kids I am on page 3800 and on post 57,000 and I really do need to get to bed. I took my Nyquil and I pray that it takes effect soon. I am starting to get chills and I just feel worse by the minute. What is really bad is that I have to go to work tomorrow even if I feel worse.

Please send some good wishes, prayers, etc.. my way.

BTW - I really, really, really missed you guys!

We missed you too Becka!

Get well soon!

After five days on the meds, I am finally feeling better!

BTW . . . DS got his Wii today - a friend that works at BBuy told him they would have some, and he got up at 5:30 to get in line. The bowling game is really fun!

My Magnets are all done!

Packed up, and ready to go.

Sorry, can't post them though . . . mine are not made entirely on the computer. I would have to take pictures. I got a bit crafty, and I am too tired to take pictures and post them.

Pj

DrHug bought 3 of these at the Disney Warehouse on one of our DL trips this year for a buck a piece!! AND he even knew where they were so they are now packed in our DCL suitcase, along with a tie dye one for 70s night!

OOPS, looks like I made the photo go away when I was trying to delete the top two photos. The Mickey Ears hats are the ones we have.

It is so nice to have our DIS family all returning from their travels. Welcome home!!

 

[Bella2000]

oooh I like that one.

 

[Bella2000]

Welcome back Becka!! Sorry to hear that you are under the weather. I hope that everyone who has been feeling crummy is feeling better this week!

Sounds like a personal problem again Dennis . . .

Remember, it is not the size, but the magic inside . . . and the operator!

So that is where you have been today! LOL!

Okay, well today I think I broke all of the commandments of shopping and now I'm suffering for it.

1. Never never try on fitted dresses during PMS sorry guys I didn't know what else to call it That little (figure of speech) ol' size that you hate being in in the first place goes up when you are bloated. Also when the heck did I get kankles..or something pretty darn close to it. Those cute little flirty shoes just didn't cut it either as they cut into said kankles or what is pretty close to them. I think that's up there with that back stuff.

2. Never try on flirty little shoes when it has been way too long since you had a pedi. Having a guy as the salesperson made it worse. Can dry heel skin rip a ped?

Just a side observation - Why do all of the size 0 teens looking for some winter soiree all seem to come out at the same time you are cursing trying to reach the zipper in the dress.

3. Solo dress trying on is great so no one can see you sink to the lows of lows but it sure helps to have someone to zip up the dresses. #3 is - it is impossible to turn the dress around so the back zip is in the front and spin it around (ala a bra - KWIM). First of all the zip won't go up all the way due to the you know - those things that shall not be named are problematic on a good day but PMS - OY and then you still have the same issue trying to twist it back around half zipped just pathetic

Basically I could go on and on and on. Hours later it took me way to long to accomplish this shopping task so I cursed myself and left to head home calling DH for a consoling voice to say sign me up to the gym and he replied "Uhm it's 1 minutes to the end of the game the Patriots are leading..." Yeah, that's when I said the heck with it and went to the Wendy's drive thru. I rarely even eat fastfood but there was no Starbucks around.


Okay - so that was my day. I still have a lot of work work to do vs. cruise work. I have all of that as well. DH started his packing and that would be a whole other post.

Well it sounds like PJ has a pair of twins that she is very free with at airport security......

And I AM the Keeper of the PJ...right?

Well, I have been playing with the kid's doorsign tonight switching the edges to the feathered look & adding a few pictures. Here it is. Now I need to decide which one to use!

Cool! What about Tennis and the driving one? Is the controller really two pieces that are put together via magnet (can you tell this was a source of Thanksgiving conversation?

I LOVE these Lisa. I'll have to show DD tomorrow.

Girl, you need one of these!!!

 

[Bella2000]

This week is parent/teacher conference and we just realized no school - so what are we going to do with DD during the conference.

 

[lbgraves]

I would have her take a book to read or something to color/draw/write with at a desk while you meet with the teacher.

 

[Bella2000]

I just checked work email. Evidently many people took the whole week off because they are fired up and raring to go Monday. Uhm, I am not fired up, nor am I raring to go. I also did not have the week off. Despite all of those things I still would not be focused. I just SO WANT TO GO ON VACATION in a huge way. I am having a really difficult time pretending to care.

 

[Bella2000]

Reading my last post back sounds so bad doesn't it. Well who else could I share that with but you guys....I got the Tony Bennett duets CD today (no ITunes because I wanted the bonus tracks Target had) and I'm humming "Smile" and "Put on a Happy Face"

 

[Bella2000]

Trivia - Does anyone recall the first start of the duets where the people were not singing together that went to I think #1. Nope, not Natalie Cole and her dad.

I'm going to ask. I understood they discourage it. The 1st grade classroom is way smaller than Kindergarten. I have a fear of DD dialoguing with us. Imagine?! OY.
