8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 7

[windermerejudy]

Ooh... that "exercise" word again. That's a good program. A college friend of mine was in that program and has been working with cardiac arrest victims in rehabilitation. My wife's working on her PhD. We're hoping for the first "Dr" in the family. She's the type that would be embarrassed to be called "Dr", so I'm hoping to plaster it all over our stateroom door next year after graduation




Butt Kickin' Tag!




So tired of fundraisers...magazines, pizzas, cheesecakes, candy bars, girl scout cookies, raffles




Thanks! Bailey (on left) we bought from a very reputable breeder after reading "choosing a dog for dumb***es". We enjoyed having her so much I listed ourselves on the Bearded Collie Rescue and adopted Morgan last October. He was soooo timid, he'd run and hide if you just called him. The humane society had papers for him from a probable puppy mill in Missouri. Now, he's a big sweetie, except for "Not Now this very minute", in which he's been slushing around in the melting snow and needs hosed off...but at other times he's a sweetie.

Joel ---
YOur beardies are so pretty......Iam kinda hooked on the breed ---very gentle and funny.

Dearest Tag Fairy, I have to share an amazing discovery. It has become clear that receiving a tag is a magical cure for PMS. It has taken me from this (shrieking harpie) to this (cuddly and lovable). My DH has asked me to extend his sincere gratitude to you for this dramatic turn of events. He has declared your powers "miraculous". He wishes you to know that he is a believer and he is in your debt. (Chocolates to follow!)

{Note to self: Must convince DW to register with Disboards and bribe TF to tag her}

When we first saw the footage on our evening news, our first comments were, "What is that kid DOING?" and "Where is Tigger's handler?"

Like something out of Siegfried and Roy, huh?

Joel--

My kids got the biggest laugh out of the doggie picture.

DS wants to know if the dogs can see under all of that hair?

The answer is "No", at least it's very limited. I've witness them more than once bump into things. Morgan's just getting used to the longer hair, his was cut short when we got him. My wife tries to keep their hair up.

 

[Diznyfan68]

You mean kind of like this?

Or this?

Stop teasing me!

Oh, they're precious!

Your chicken will go nicely with the tub of sour cream I found on the breakfast bar this morning.

Yeah it was pretty stinky.

 

[BibbidyBobbidyBoo]

bisgetti? And I thought sketty was bad. LOL

Lisa! Why was the beach empty like that?!?

Great. I just got the mail and there is this big manila envelope from my DS school. I'm thinking it is something important about his schedule or grade. NO it is a fundraiser. Cookie Dough no less. Gee when did they start mailing this stuff home? Don't they know I have cruise to pay for.

I used to buy all that stuff.. but now that I have 3 kids each bringing home several fund raisers each year (plus girl scouts and boy scouts/etc.) I've learned to ignore most of them. It takes some will power though! (says the woman with a box of cookie dough in the freezer- for DH! Me no likey the peanut butter cookies LOL He's the one eating them!)

Well that's just swell. I keep my food that I purchase from Market Day down in the basement in an extra refridgerator and I just went down there to get some veggies for dinner and I found a whole unopened box of popcorn chicken sitting on top of the freezer. It has probably been there since DD cooked herself dinner last week. Nice. 15 bucks down the drain. Of course, she denies it was her.

Oh no!!!!
Believe it or not- at our previous home we had the fridge and an upright freezer in the house and had NO ROOM for the chest freezer in the house- so we had it on the backporch. So redneck. LOL But anyway, my point was that I was so annoyed because anytime my oldest would go get a pizza or something she'd leave it open or leave stuff on top. ugh!
Now we have the upright and chest freezer next to the laundry room and I see them every time I drive in the garage and walk in the house- food left out to ruin won't happen again!

Congratulations on post 30000 ... and you made it on page 2000 is that a double pirate ???

Go BibbidyBobbidyBoo
Go Wenches ​

Wow, how observant of you. I think I'm going to have to agree with you!

I remember watching it in my brother's basement after he got married. The one that I remember rolling over laughing was Billy Murray and Jane Curtain that were shrunk down dentists and actually went into the guy's mouth to do dental work. Was hiliarous!!

My favorite= Roseanne Roseannadanna
I liked all the not ready for prime time players. I watched them as reruns (I was only a few years old then!) but they are and always will be my favorites. I liked a lot of them after that too, but not quite as much. And I don't even watch SNL anymore... Reruns occasionally when I catch them on tv at times, but I don't like rush to the tv on Saturday nights anymore. I can't even remember when I watched it last! Sad....

Oh, so this is how it is.............I finally get all caught up................and everyone else leaves................I did get a shower today people!!!

Sorry... had to get some food in the kids tummies and then run them off to church/awanas!

I'm sorry, I haven't the foggiest, it was a gift and Hazel packed it away with all our cruise stuff when we returned home after our last cruise.

Well dig it out! I was kinda wondering the size on that too. I like that it seems to fit just perfectly there. I liked the bigger ones shown but knowing my kids, especially my son, he'd put an eye out on it the first day.

I figured that the kids in school were ribbing him quite a bit...I mean getting knocked out by Tigger like they were claiming? He probably got tired of that & told his dad that he didn't want to do it anymore. Plus, it was too apparrent by many that he was the one at fault trying to get under his skin somehow.

They probably were teasing him, but they did not drop the charges... it was dropped by the judge. So even if he begged his father, his father obviously did not relent for him.

 

[Joel110]

They are gorgeous! I just don't think I could handle (as they say on Pets On Parade) the "grooming responsibility".


And Judy, your little brick pooper is gorgeous, too.......

Not as bad as you'd think, but they do need a brushing once a week for mats.

Joel ---
YOur beardies are so pretty......Iam kinda hooked on the breed ---very gentle and funny.

Thanks. We are too. I had bad experiences w/dogs growing up, my mom liked Spitz's and Huskies, but we couldn't control them. Anyway, tried to be very specific on a type for the family and researched it to death (Guess I'm not just compulsive about DCL vacations ) Anyway did the list (ie. not too small, not too big, not too hyper, doesn't shed, great w/kids) and there was the Beardie. Never even heard of them before and just lucked out that a Cleveland breeder just had a litter and was wonderful.

Yeah well, I hope she learned her lesson and will check more often. Hope Mark doesn't read this because he will be pretty mad at her. Shhh.

Love Awana. My kids did Awana from Cubbies to 6th grade. Elizabeth earned the Timothy Award. Bobby could have but was to lazy.

They really are beautiful!

 

[BibbidyBobbidyBoo]

That's interesting When you put your answers in the quotes then I quote you... this is all it shows. LOL

How did she learn her lesson? Me thinks YOU learned that lesson.

 

[Enna]

Anyone else needing a tag could try this:

Where on earth did you find my picture?

Joel we did the whole research the breeds too. We had 2 dalmatians with us for 12 years. We were having our waterslide installed in the backyard and a contractor left the gate open. They got out and ran for it.Well along the way I guess the pack mentality kicked in and they managed to locate a malpractice attorney and his 2 show shelties.They attacked them. The guy demanded we put them down..it was so sad for us and on top of it all I was ready to deliver any day......

We definitely wanted a breed that was great with kids, gentle and not hyper. We were invited to a Beardie Bash over in Tampa. Imagine 150 beardies bouncing around......Well of course we were sold.....I contacted a breeder and we were supposed to get one of her litter and the mom aborted the puppies. We were in tears and she liked us so much that she called a friend of hers in Denver who also shows nationally and amazingly I got a call the next day that she had kept River out of the last group to show and his testicle never descended so she was regretfully going to have to give him up.........He arrived at MCO 2 days later......

I don't know why it quote like that. It was probably because you had multi quotes in the post I was quoting.
I think she will learn when her allowance comes in a bit less.

 

[windermerejudy]

Yeah I brush about once a week too.They sure do mat badly if you don't. We had to shave River last April after we boarded him while on a cruise

 

[BibbidyBobbidyBoo]

Oh Enna, you reminded me! I totally forgot to say I love that pigtail tantrum throwing emoticon!

 

[windermerejudy]

Well since everybody else is off torturing themselves with another howling night on AI........

BIP where are you located specifically

Laura---where in Mich are you?

Judy,

I feel like I know WAY too much about your dog's private parts now.

 

[lbgraves]

What a waste of money for them to mail that stuff out! Why not just send the information home with the kids?

 

[BibbidyBobbidyBoo]

I don't know why it quote like that. It was probably because you had multi quotes in the post I was quoting.

Aha. Yes, from this she will learn well.
Wait a minute. I must be totally ripping off my children on allowance... $15 wasted but her allowance comes in a little LESS? That means her allowance is more than $15?
Shhhh, don't tell my kids! Let's just keep that a secret, shall we. LOL
