Looks like I'm going to have to go buy a new VCR. Ours squeaks pretty loudly, but we hardly ever use it. But with Sundays how they are, I'll need it. Last night I missed the first part of DH because the football game pushes everything back so AM ran into it. Then there is Cold Case, Brothers and Sisters and Without a Trace. I switched back and forth too much and missed alot. I skipped most of what was on ABC because I can watch them online.

Ok, now I can't watch on ABC.com!!!

 

[pyramid2000]

Never mind, yes I can. But they don't have B&S.

This whole experience of planning things early is new to me, but has me so excited! At the same time, I am constantly thinking of things that can go wrong and what I will miss. I am worried about the kids when we go on the Eco Tour on CC and whether I will brave the catamaran myself. Now this shuttle thing has me a little worried and I will have to make a decision soon on where we will stay so I can book it. I wanted to stay closer to WDW, but if there may be traffic, I'm leaning towards being as close to the boat as possible. Do you think other people there will mind if we save places in line for our green family?? Kristina is camping out in the parking lot overnight, right?

Today DD3 wants to be Cinderella for Halloween. I hope she sticks with it since we have that already!

Car loads of kids used to bother me until I did my student teaching in a inner city school. I noticed how excited the students all got around halloween, I mean really excited. i mentioned this to the teacher and she told me that the children get more excited for halloween then for Christmas, because they know they will get something for halloween becasue they get it from other people and don't have to depend on their own parents. Ever since then, children coming from other areas don't bother me, in fact I often feel sorry for them that this is the one thing they look so forward to. And if they don't dress up, oh well they still get candy who cares it is less I have to eat!!!

And in my neighborhood growing it, it was a competition as to who could get the most candy. Dm usually stopped us at 1 or 2 blocks, while some kids did the whole neighborhood.

I remember one year when everyone was funny about "we not giving out to people we don't know." (which is lame because i found out halloween was one of the few holidays you ever saw some of the neighbors.)

That year i made a list of everyone I could say "i knew" and we had to drive to their houses. (DD got way more than enough that year.)

Me i loved Halloween because we weren't rich... I didn't get the best walkman and tons of stuff for xmas but for halloween you were only limited by how much you could carry. (Even if you had to give half the candy to dad or through awya pieces that looked funny.)
