12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 15

[Jhalkias]

An amazing thing happened at choir tonight. After I was told that the old SS president "would not sing in choir." and all of the other horrible things that have been happening....she appologized and asked for forgiveness. She was very humble. She teaches preschool at a Christian preschool. She told me she felt horrible teaching the children about Christian ways when she knew she wasn't treating me right. We talked for a long time. I feel like a huge weight was lifted from my life. I was anxious to tell all of you! Thanks for all of your support.

Wow, doing the Christian thing, and in church politics no less!

Good job Brandi!

Okay I want to go to WDW. I want to go on another cruise. I want a Macbook, I want an iPhone. I want to have a minimeet at the new Pirate Princess Party. I want Heros and BG to hurry up and come back on. I want a Wii or at least to play one. I want my car to come in today! I want to finish listening to my book on tape and read the 5 others ones that I received. I want the DVD Inconvenient Truth. I want a great productive work day but I'll settle for one that doesn't end with a stress headache.

I don't want to do laundry or make beds. I don't want to attend another over an hour conference call. I don't want to listen to one more person sucking up, being disloyal or tooting their own horn.


I guess I'll settle for reading trip reports at the end of the day and listening to my music loudly.

Carla,

Hmmm DITTO!!!!! John, can we come over and play with your Wii Gaming System?

OK - who is organizing the meet for this event? I don't think this is something that we can miss. It would be wrong for us not to go and pay our respects.

I just have no response to the Texas Banana. Still processing...

Carla,

Kim

You have to ask Alex if you can come over and play with his Wii . . .

(that sounds a bit off, doesn't it?)

When he goes back to school, it will go with him.

Nope, watching a replay of the Boise State game (I missed the 2nd half) so that I can watch a bowl game I can feel good about!

John1

One of the 2 football games I would actually watch after the fact...

We went to the funeral today, they are so sad! The cemetery was extremley cold and windy, it just seemed so bleak. Luckily for me, the grandkids all know me and came over to get thier coats zipped up and say hi! They are such a ray of light. It was like little beads of joy in a very sad situation. Sorry for waxing philisophical, just felt the need to say it.

John and Amy, I thought about little Sophia and her grandma and had the same thought about her. I bet she was just a little ray for you too.

Nice thought Kim, and all too true.

Death is a part of life, and a piece of grandma lives on in Sophia.

They replayed that on the weekend too! We watched it again. The most fun game I have seen in a long, long time.

Brandi! That is wonderful news!!

 

[MrsMork]

I just don't get the banana thing over Texas....well, I get the symbolism, but I don't get why the Canadian government would spend money on it.

 

[MrsMork]

Lisa, glad you had a good day. I have only been to Kohl's once, but I really liked it.

 

[MrsMork]

Kim, glad you were able to connect with the beads of joy today. I love that thought!

I am so glad that the two of you got the chance to talk one on one. It is great to see that she found the high road to travel on.

It looks like I may not be sailing with Todd OR PJ!. The Repo cruise is hanging out the window so that would leave the Halloween cruise with PJ. Since that is a week before NJ week, I am thinking of switching it over so the girls only miss the 3 days, or so we can do WDW a couple days before and still only miss 5 days.

Have to get Dina ready for preschool. It's pajama day and it is 29 degrees outside! And that is before the windchill factor!

 

[elaineteresa]

I am afraid we are going to have more school issues. Last week he was doing so much better with his new teacher Ms. Felicia and when I talked to her Friday afternoon I thought we were really making good progress. Of course when I got to pick Nathan up yesterday they have a brand new teacher, Ms. Katie! ARRRGGGG! Felicia has been moved to some other room so Nathan gets to deal with more adjustments. All of these teacher changes are just not good for him so I don't know what to expect right now.

Do you have any childcare alternatives? It sounds like the school is not acting in the best interests of the children with all those changes. Can you and Aaron stagger your hours somewhat so that he is not there as long?
You should complain that the tuition you are paying should provide more stability for the kids.

I always used to check out the other schools to see if anything would fit Giona's style better. By the 4th year together - he and his pre-school teacher finally had worked out their relationship and things went more smoothly. and he seems to really love Kindergarten now.

I bet Nathan is happier too now that things are going better for him!!!

Oh yeah...Brandi? Going to AC and not giving me a buzz??
