[Diznyfan68]

I know I did but I'm not recalling much about it...

Went to the website and I do recall them now but I only had a few of my Mom's to read.

Watching the Awards.....not happy that it's a political platform, Al Gore can go home now.


And is it just me, or did Melissa Etheridge sound really bad???

I didn't care for that song at all.

 

[miztigg]

Been there....Done that........ FGM has me on the EBAY Parole Program......... called STOP BUYING !!!!!! We have to pay for a 15 day cruise !!!!!

Mark

DH has me on ebay timeout

 

[lbgraves]

This is getting really freaky - you just described my father, except for the BS leader - he never got overly involved with my brother like that.

I didn't have a brother & he wasn't a BS as a kid. Never could figure that one out.

 

[lbgraves]

I don't know either but I think it has something to do with chinese food additives

ROFLMAO!!!!

 

[lbgraves]

Oh I know Lisa....blah, blah, blah Ebays too much!

That one I understood.

My kids climbed (more than once) from the aft public deck 8 to our balcony in 8602 (the big huge one) but if they fell, they would have only fallen onto Secret Deck Aft 7. I think.

everyone who read Darth's dtory remember the moral. No not "Don't drink too mucH" But buying drinks for Jack pays off in the end because he may save your life. If not for me Darth would have been on a 20/20 special.

My DD was a freak for The Babysitter's Club. Do young girls still like those books? I thought they were great! DS not so much of a reader. I wish that was different

They are out there. Last year when DS finally got inspired to read more with AR testing he would got thru the Magic Treehouse books in an hour reading 2 or more in a night during the summer. He also liked the AtoZ mysteries & started reading The Boxcar Children.

FINALLY caught up!!!!!

 

[FINCANTIERI]

Watching the Awards.....not happy that it's a political platform, Al Gore can go home now.


And is it just me, or did Melissa Etheridge sound really bad???

Gore is doing to put the Oscar into his lock box.

 

[Diznyfan68]

FINALLY caught up!!!!!

 

[Diznyfan68]

Okay - it is me, but why did they have Celine Dion sing that song and why is she still on the stage?

 

[miztigg]

OK, Time for tonights Blast from the Past! I read another 900 back-pages today AND kept up with the current thread IF I can keep it up, I'll be caught up by the end of the week

I think I was slowed down today because I kept getting tears in my eyes - lots of sad/happy DISer stories last Sunday/Monday....

maureen, I find if I start a project DH will always finish it. He thinks I don't know what I am doing.

Yes, I think it is the SRY (sex-determination region) gene of the Y chromosome that activates the "PNA" base pair within males...where PNA, of course, means PAY NO ATTENTION! So, you see, it's genetic and men can't change that any more than they can change the size of their feet!

There have been Hunter ceiling fans that were 75% off at Target years ago in the loft in our garage waiting to go in the kid's rooms so they aren't so humid in the summer months.

That's ok. I got a kitchen sink and faucet this Christmas and it's still in the box, in the family room. We're waiting to put in a new kitchen counter before it gets put in. I'll post a picture when it's done....maybe in 2 years

We have been renovating/remodeling our 100 year old house since 1990!! Yes - over 16, nearly 17 years! Although tons of progress has been made in that time (all new electrical, all new plumbing, new roof, new kitchen, new bath, etc.) you wouldn't believe the unfinished projects. For some reason finishing the trim/moulding is a biggie - there are rooms that have needed just that to be complete for over 12 years. The "new" bath was functionally completed over 7 years ago - but the trim and little finishing touches are still not done. I do try and do some of the projects myself, but DH is a total perfectionist and will usually step in and take away any project I start (it doesn't always get finished, but it gets to a point where it is beyond my abilities! ) Part of it is that as soon as the weather gets good outside, he drops all indoor projects like a rock and goes out to garden. House projects only get done between November and April - and of course not much can be done in December because of all the holiday stuff going on and the THOUSANDS of lights that MUST be put up outside

Our DS was also the NICU bully - full-term 21 inches 7lbs. 9 oz. The nurses would fight over him because he could be picked up and cuddled.

Our DS7 was one of those also. He was 2 weeks late. We went through 24 hours of labor (after the water broke) and then an emergency c-section. Like Sk8tingmom, I'm not going to go into details - but I will NEVER go through that again! DS7 ended up in the NICU for a week and was by far the biggest, healthiest baby there. I wasn't able to visit much, but DH was there a lot and every time one of us arrived we had to look around for him since one of the nurses would be holding him and he wouldn't be in his crib. I was sent home after 3 days (with strict instruction that I could visit 1 time per day for 30 minutes). DS came home on Mother's Day and the nurses sent a geranium with him as his mother's day gift for me. We still have that geranium - it is in a large pot and goes outside each summer and then gets overwintered in our basement under a light.

On the topic of braces.
I had mine for 8 years!!!!! My teeth were slow movers and I had numersous extractions!
Chrissie

Lucky me had braces twice! The first time I was pre-teen and one of my adult teeth came in behind the baby tooth. They pulled that one into position and straighted some other teeth then. At that time, no one really paid attention to "Bite" .... sooooo, in my mid-twenties I started having pain in my jaw due to my bite being misaligned and got to have braces again. It was MUCH worse having them as an adult - people notice it more and are constantly asking "Why - your teeth are already straight!"

Well, she's a little shy, so 1000 people coming up to her and asking her if she is "SWMBO" will be a little intimidating. I doubt she will wear a black shirt -- she will want to go incognito.

Considering how many of us DISers will be on that ship, she might stand out more by NOT wearing a black shirt!

Did either of you read Trixie Beldon?

Not that I remember Lisa.

 

[PBader]

Parker Stevenson & Puke Face Cassidy played the Hardy Boys.

I think they were among the hunks that graced Tiger Beat. I can't remember the names of any of our other Teeny Bop books

 

[dahuffy]

[jonesing]

WOW!!! I go away for almost the entire weekend and this thread is all the way down to the #5 position under Cruise Meets!

Is it just me? I haven't heard of over half the movies nominated for an Oscar!
