8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 5

I do all my baking from scratch. It started when I was young. My parents were both working and I wanted something sweet, so I just started baking things myself.

Your family is very lucky!!

Good Morning - My DD (12) came home with a project yesterday from Middle School. She is suppossed to interview a group of people to determine what are there top 5 "Stresses" in their life. I gave her some ideas like Time, Money, Health, etc. In hindsight, I should have sent her to this thread - the response would have been What Room #, What Dining Time, how many times to Palo, etc I am not sure her Teacher would have been able to understand the answers. I think her Teacher is looking for the Middle School answers of Homework, Friends, Sports, etc.

Well, fiddlesticks.

Thats another one, I should have said that.

 

[buckifan]

well, I guess I should just count on DD having a snowday tomorrow. Noon news said one storm Wednesday will follow a first storm tonight to bring 15 to 30" of sn*w between tonight and Thursday night!!! (with 30"+ totals starting east of here into Albany and east!!) THEN Lake Effect sn*w will probaly follow that Thursday into Friday.

then again, the meteorologists get really excited about these systems around here and the possibilities - and like to forecast worst possible totals - so we will see

I only hope DH makes it home to get snowed in with us!!! Otherwise, who knows when we will see him!!!

I hope he makes it back home soon *and safely*!!

Put me tentatively down for 2. I'll have to check and see if I can swing it. Haven't been to BB since they revamped the menu. I've heard the prices went up and the service went down, I hope that's not the case.

Too bad we can't have a meet at Club 33. Anyone have any connections????

Got your down

TOTALLY OT, but I'm kinda excited. We were looking at stuff last night to decorate our nursery/kid room (the bed will depend of course on the age of our child) But the rest of the room is all planned out!

We're doing an "under the sea" theme!

The whole room is already painted blue, and here's a shot of the mural we've ordered for one whole wall of the room:

Totally off-topic, so forgive me in advance.

Did anyone else hear about the mall shooting in SLC last night? Freaked me out because I was in that mall last summer and my aunt and uncle go there regularly.

Yes, I heard that this morning & worried because our friends live in Utah. I hope that DD doesn't hear about it on the news before I hear back from them.

Sorry just went back and edited. That Sat is blocked out for us so that adds to the expense. I really can't afford a trip right now.

BUT

If someone gets us into Club 33, I'm there.....a girl can dream right?

 

[Diznyfan68]

Finally caught up. Will be back later. Must bake cookies. MMMM Chocolate chip my favorite.

Happy birthday to All. Hope everyone is healthy. You too BIP!

Mmmm - not letting DS see this post, he'll want me to start baking!

I'm also a scratch baker so if I don't have everything that I need it doesn't happen.

Okay ...took you off

A couple of cute rugs from Ikea:

And a crab "pillow" for the bed. (it's actually listed by Ikea as a chair cushion, but I figure we could just cut off the strings and use it as a pillow!)

Last time in WDW a teenager came up to me, I love your accent,
My DS says we do not have an accent, I say we do we are in their country.
The girls says ''you really talk poosh'', are you from Australia, I said no from London UK.

Oh ( this is very true) Do you know the Queen,
REPLY, No not personally but we see her on TV,
Oh, do you stop to have afternoon tea?
Shouldnt have replied like this said, No but we have McDonalds!
I really do not think we speak poosh, but interesting how people view us.

Very nice! My DS would be very jealous.

 

[lbgraves]

Well , Just got a call from the DS 5's school , guess he puked in class so I have to run to pick him up ...He said he had a tummy ache this morning so I gave him a lil Pepto ...guess he wasnt trying to get out of school after all (you know how kids can be ) Anyway I will be in and out through out the day ...

Hope the little guy is feeling better soon.

Possible Mini DIS Meet ?????

Looks like we will be going to Disneyland on March 23rd thru the 25th just for a quick visit and to celebrate all of our birthdays since they all fall within a couple of weeks between all four of us , So .. I was thinking why not have a little Mini Meet ...So if anyone is interested Please let me know , maybe we could meet at DTD at a place to eat ...or even better yet How about the Blue Bayou ???? I have never ate there before and thought this might be a perfect setting for us Pirates ....So if your up for it we will be there ...Just would like to know how many would be interested if we needed to make a ressie at BB???

Sounds like a really good idea, but unfortunately I have to work that weekend. Hope that the rest of you have a great time.

Certainly everyone in London has tea WITH the Queen regularly, right?

 

[micmse2003]

Well, I can say for certain that we here in the midwest have NO accent!
Isn't it funny how we all think that our way of speaking is the "right way"?


SO I'm still at work. I'm debating leaving. It just keeps coming down. It's not supposed to stop until this evening. SO now my dilemma is do I leave now and risk the bad road conditions, wait and see if the salt trucks/plows come through, or just stay here and wait until later when DPartner can come rescue me?!?! (she drives a nice front-wheel-drive vehicle )

I do not know if our storm is heading your way??? Right now the winds are at 25 miles an hour. It is snowing so hard I can't see across the street. We are only talking 6 inches but got that much already. The temperature is 16 degrees. It is a blizzard!!!!
