Yes, I've been a scout leader for about 14 years. (I am an Eagle scout from way back!) :teeth:

Thanks for all the love. We don't have A/C in my house. My roommate refuses to get it, knowing I'd have it on 24/7. It's been hot and humid the last few days. It feels like Florida weather. I would feel like I'm at WDW, except there's no air conditioned hotel room to go back to.....

Here's what I know about cruising in 2007. I am currently going to WDW in June 2007 for 8 nights/9 days with folks who have never been...If I don't cruise in 2007, I probably won't cruise again until my cousins go again.....in 2009. Sooooooooo....I am hoping to cruise again in 2007, finances allowing. December will probably be the time. I know Lisa and John are cruising on the 1st, Angie on the 8th and Cristi on the 15th.....The 15th is probably out..too close to Xmas. Sorry Cristi. I will miss any pier mishaps...We'll see.

Angie, you will see me when you are down......

why oh why. I was laying in bed trying to sleep, again :cool1:

when I hear something kinda like a chip bag rattaling. I thing if the neighbors cat is in the living room (DH left a chip bag by the couch) I am going to have a fit (leaving doors open at night with fans on as it is way to hot here). I get up no cat, o.k. I'll check on the boys and go back to trying to sleep.....So I think... walk in the boys room flip on the light. Spencer is sitting up on his bed with his head in his hands saying "wyatt you stink, gross" I look ove at wyatt he is throwing up all over spencers bed. on the electrick blanket, the goose down feather blanket. Great. Do you all remember why I am so thrilled..... Ya are washer is broke. thrill a min. Well A friend of mine Leona anyway her son is going to the lake with me in the morning to help do some work. anyway we are meeting at her house so I guesse i will call and ask if she can wash them for me. I paid her $5. today to wash DH work pants. I had so much to do today and figured I would spend almost that at the laundry mat anyway. I told her it would at least buy her a latte or how ever you spell that nasty coffee stuff. I'm not tired at all now, and I have to get up in 5 hours to get my day started. The boys have church 9-12 then thier sister will keep them (there probly go to the pool from 1-5) then they have church from 6-8. I guesse they are having some family night ice cream social thing and the boys get points for everyone they bring. well I better go back to bed after I check on wyatt, poor guy was asleep still when I put him in the tub.

Mum - it sounds like you have had a heck of a night!!! You poor thing! I hope your babe is feeling better soon!

klineyqueen · Jun 28, 2006

It is still raining. Since Thursday we have gotten 18.5 inches of rain!!!! We can't leave our house because roads are closed in every direction. My husband does road work for a living and I am sure he will be extremely busy but today...he is home!!! His boss called and said don't come to work the roads are closed. Our home is ok but many people are flooded. I hope it all ends soon. Our rivers are only going to peak on Thursday. AAAHHHH!!!! Send Pixie dust and prayers for this to end.

Brandi, prayers and pixie dust for all in your area.

Mum, :grouphug:

for your little one.

MommyMinnie · Jun 28, 2006

Mum,

There's nothing like having all that to clean up. Aggg! the smell!

I hope Wyatt is doing better today. :guilty:

pyramid2000 · Jun 28, 2006

The flooding is all over the news! Since it is Philly news, it is mostly about around there, but I can't believe how much rain there is. Luckily it isn't around here. Just a few showers here and there. Sending lots of prayers and pixiedust:

!!

pyramid2000 · Jun 28, 2006

Oh mum! I hope Wyatt is doing better. pixiedust:

I hope all turns out in the end and you get out to the lake. :grouphug:

Well, I started DD's room. Had to change plans though....

*I planned on doing half the room at a time so I didn't have to empty the whole thing out yet.
**Changed so I don't have to clean brushes, etc as often. :teeth:

*The ceiling needs to painted also so I was going to just paint it yellow like the top half of the room.
**Yellow is a bit darker than I thought, can't do that so I had to tape it off. Yuck! Now I will have to see if she wants it white, a lighter yellow, light blue, etc...

I had to stop so I could get myself semi-cleaned up to go pick up the girls at camp. Oh the, um, er, :rolleyes:

woman sweat!!! :lmao:

Gotta run!!

Projects at our house always turn into more work than we planned. :lmao:

More work and more money. We always seem to need some new tool or other.

No wonder Caroline has been so quiet the last few days. She has been :artist:

.

Wonder if Mum got all that bed linen washed? How horrible to have to care for a sick child and wait till morning to do the wash. :sad2:

klineyqueen · Jun 28, 2006

Karen - how are you holding up? How was your basement? I hope things are okay for you.

klineyqueen · Jun 28, 2006

The sick kid at night with no washing machince is a nightmare! Yuck! The boards are quite today. Everyone must be doing chores!

I'm working (mostly) but it's lunch break so I check in with relatively little guilt.

I am trying to decide what to do in Cozumel. We were there before and did the jeep excursion. Now with 2 little ones we need something easy. We are thinking about going to Paradise Beach. Has anyone gone there? It looks like a great deal of fun!

MrsMork · Jun 28, 2006

We plan to stay on the ship at Cozumel and just have another sea day. :goodvibes

Speaking of more $$ for a project...we had a fellow come out yesterday to look at our pasture and tell us how much he will charge to mow it. Lots of grass, really tall and we are heading into fire season so it needs to be mowed. Well this really nice very down to earth fellow who owns a tractor told us he would charge $45 per hour and that he was not sure just how long it will take because it is very hilly, has a gully he has to cross etc. This is true and fine with us. DH asked if he thought it would take more than 10 hours. The fellow said definately not, likely not even near that long. He just can't give us an accurate estimate. So we visited with him abit, he is very nice, so DH (otherwise known as DrHug) said "You know I'd be willing to pay you $50 per hour?. :confused:

The fellow said, oh no $45 will be fine. After he left I looked at my dear sweet DrHug and said "WHAT WERE YOU THINKING???" He said "well, it's a lot of work and I appreciate him helping us." I assured DrHug the the fellow knows his business, the value of his equipment and the cost of fuel to complete the job. "I know, but...." So, I assured DrHug that if the fellow does a good job and he wants to throw in a few bucks for a tip that would be fine. :confused3

Sheesh! There is such a thing as being too nice!

kimerinc · Jun 28, 2006

Hey all,

I was wondering if the concierge would help me get tickets for all the kids with this group for the tea or the bridge tour. Have any of you heard of that happening, or is there something else I can do?

Let me know if you have ever heard of this....
