Hi everyone! Hope everyone is having a good day. It's cloudy/rainy here. Have a parent-teacher conference tonight and then we go and pick up dd's softball uniform. Plus I get to drop off the $30 worth of raffle tickets I ate! I hate selling them. Each family is required to sell $30 worth.

I guess I have recovered from that embarrassing school board meeting last night! I have never been so embarrassed! What a bunch of adds. They wouldn't approved our new principal till after a budget meeting. She turned down 2 other offers to come to our school. So she is put off for another 2 weeks. They also wouldn't approve 2 3rd party contract renewals for 2 other principals. They work for a serivce and the school district doesn't have to pay them bennies. It was a no brainer and 3 board members were having a fit over everything and the new board member sworn in last night was . The state budget is in chaos, but they still need to conduct business. I now know why people home school! I our area there are a number of charter schools and school districts compete with each other for students. Our elementary school's curriculum is based on multiple intelligences, so we are unique in the area. Not to mention the 75% of the children attending come from outside the neighborhood and city.

I know why I don't watch those meetings on cable, it make you want to throw something at the TV!

Well DCL cancelled our reservations. I am trying my best to get a cabin booked, DCL is going to get so tired of me calling them all the time until I get one They have even taken the wait list off of the suites. If any of you hear about any openings please let me know!

I am sorry to hear that. Just be a pest.

There certainly are alot of us - Three years ago we moved from Glassboro, NJ to The Villages, FL. It is really nice to have a 90 minute drive home from WDW and not a 17 hour drive.

How do you like it there??? We are looking to buy property this September and build in 4 years.

Just filled up 2.89. Cheapest around including the clubs.


You have the best photos. I will be dreaming about this .Yum

Thanks for the photos Laura. Time for bed.

I know I could manage at least 3 lobster tails.

We are very spoiled in the US! We gets complaints when it is $2 or $3. They are still predicting that it will get to $4 national average this summer. I went to $3.39 yesterday afternoon. All 4 of our news channels were at my store today.

That is cheap compared to here.

Our good friend back East (actually, the brother of DSil in our traveling party) just had his new child!!! Child Services came by today at 4 and delivered 5 month old Baby Antonio!!!!

If all goes well he should be able to finalize by December or January!

​

I am so happy for them. What a little cutie!!!

there are rumors going around that the Magic is taking on water on deck one - has anyone heard anything!!!!!!!!!

OMG!!! I hope not!!!

I want to know what's with SC that they have such "cheap" gas?

I do too?????

That is a really cool website. I have bookmarked it to keep up with the ships.

Thanks Andy!

What is the website??? I must have missed something??? Thanks!!!

That is what his sister told him but she didn't seem concerned. He has removed his post until he hears from her with more info.

(big blow to manhood here....cleaning tip to follow)

Try using white vinegar right on the stains for 2-3 washes, it should help, not 100%, but 50-75% depending on degree of stains.

Thanks! I will give that a try. It may be too late for some of the shirts but it will help keep it from building up on the new ones.

Ummm... for any West Coasters - have any of you with pets noticed anything weird about them. I have one who's going through postpartum depression (she's never been prego yet) just thinks she has but she's REALLY been driving me nuts. Now the other one is starting!

Whining and whimpering and antsy, she's been pacing, scratching the carpet and jumping the door to be let out only to be howling to be let back in. She did this once before when we had the freak wind/rain storm a few weeks back. Just curious if she's sensing something or what. Anyone else having this problem - or is she just

Just sign me off as : She who has a crazy dog!

(I tell you - she was tailor made for this house)

Just don't let them get out and run into this guy!

Man Sells Neighbor's Dog At Yard Sale

(KTHV) -- Dachshund puppies can cost as much as $200, but last Saturday, a couple got a good deal when they bought one for 15 bucks at a yard sale. The problem is the dog didn't belong to the man who sold it. http://www.wusa9.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=58637

Just click on the "Zoom Out" button to see the east coast of the USA and the coast of Europe and Africa.


Severe storms, with very HEAVY rains are going through our area, I just had to chase our trash bags that were floating down the road.............our neighbor saw me and hollored out his door, "That's one way to get rid of your trash."

So I was on my way to FedEx for some supplies. Nothing like having a nuclear waste transport truck with three casks marked "FISSILE" pass you going 75 in a construction zone to make you appreciate the little things like the incoming rain!

 

[kap158]

I think it's great that we can track the Magic on its voyage to Barcelona. Although I would rather be on that ship dising with you. I have friends who are going on the 070707 Med cruise. I am surprised to see that this trip was not sold out. I hope the Med cruises are sold out.

So the safest course of action was to take a photo while driving?????

I noticed that, but I thought it would be more fun to make fun of him.

What Andy said!

This is exactly what the transport looked like. Three waste casks on a flatbed.

What you can't see in the photo is the armed driver and passenger who probably wouldn't like having photos of their truck taken while out on the highway

Hey Jonesing, did this truck have a military escort? I once passed a convoy escorting some long trucks in Nebraska when I was traveling cross country on I-80 and thought that it was either a missile or toxic waste.
