Here I thought that I would have a couple pages to catch up on...guess everyone is resting for tonight. LOL! Guess that I had better get going to the store. This is not the time of night I like to go shopping.

I am up to page 525 in my catch up reading! Whew! Will I ever get really caught up?

 

[MrsMork]

I have a window in my office and right outside there is a bunch of ivy and I have been seeing a mouse running back and forth on the little ledge of the window all day. EEEEEEWWWWW! I do not like rodents!

Angie,

Good luck on the reading, you might be up a while...., but read quickly, you have been missed.

Where is everyone? I just got home, got the laundry in, did dishes and not one more page? Are you all trying to help Angie? That is so sweet!

Looks like another quiet night around here!

Welcome Back Angie! I forgot to say something earlier.

I have been also thinking that we should get Lisa a big tag for her shirt that says.... I am in charge of the lime green DIS group, they are crazy, please do what I say.... that way all the CM's will give her all the love she needs...

Although I do think the button would be better....

To my fellow cruisers in reasonable distance to the Philly airport: Southwest now has $59 one way PHL-MCO available. (Rates are only available through Dec 10). So our family is now getting to Orlando for about $200 less than we were before!! (and when the rates come out for later in Dec, I can book the return trip using the funds from the original reservation!)

Anyway, for those flying Southwest from Philly or elsewhere, see if you have a better deal, too.

BWI has the same deal

Dody, if you do decide to parkhop, there will be a park to park bus. Each park has buses that will go to each of the other main parks. Exceptions, MK to/from Epcot (monorail) and MGM to/from EPCOT (boat).

Welcome back Angie!

If you only need to do 3-4 things in each park then you can probably do it. If you are staying onsite and one of those parks has EE then I would hit that park first. Otherwise I would probably start with AK. Be at the gates before it opens, go to the attractions that you would want to see and then head over to the MK for the rest of the day. You are not going to see even a fraction of the attractions in either park but if you know you just want to hit A,B,C in AK and X,Y,Z in MK it is doable. You will lose at least an hour when you are hopping between the parks so make sure to plan that in.

OK, I just got in and am scanning the groceries so that I can put them away. The kids are being good so ice cream then bed!!!

"scanning the groceries", ok I am lost. I have seen a fridge that you scan stuff and it will build a shopping list as things run out, am I think on the right track?

DD is asleep and DS is in the bath so I can spend some time here as long as DH does not try to "steal" the computer from me!

I am so glad that today is almost over. The first 2/3 of my workday was just brutal. Hopefully the rest of the week will not be nearly as bad.

I am really craving something warm and sweet to eat like freshly baked cookies or brownie or something like that. Unfortunately (or fortunately as the case may be) I don't have the stuff in the house to make them. Does anyone want to cyber-send some over to me?

Nope, we are an A.C. Neilson family. Everything I buy is scanned & then I transmit it to them once a month.

Back from kids' viola and piano lessons... DD8 got new lesson books and she is bouncing with excitement that she's moving up! I had to ask her teacher if she had ever had a student as excited as that--and she had not.

Here you go Becka!

ok I found 20 pictures of brownies, but nothing worked to paste, but they looked really good, so this is the best I could do...

 

[87Heel]

hmm... any other on the seas now... ?

Sure, Becka! I will scan a couple of these ready to bake packs of Tollhouse cookies right thru to you.

You are a nice woman. They are currently working on easier ways to do this, so hopefully you will get an easier system soon.

It's been a hot one today! Hope everyone is cool
