Good morning Princesses! 
Kathy, glad that you had a relatively stress free game this week!
Bummer about the water main but it will be nice to have it done before your big celebrations on the 4th of July! I always think that your celebrations sounds so fun! 
Thanks for coming up with cool name of Princess Lisabelle! 
Taryn, where were you when my kid was in grade school?
That was some great information. Poor AK, I know it's hard when the kids are at the early end of the development spectrum, too.
Hard to believe that it will all even out in a year or two.
I would be happy to chat with you at 3:45 am -- problem is that it is 12:45 a.m. here and I'm just not too chatty then!
I will keep that in mind for those days I get up really, really early. I've convinced DH that he has to keep the CPAP on longer in the night and that helps alot with me being able to sleep in a bit more. I looked up the lapu lapu and it looks delicious! 
Lindsay, great job getting out for that run!
It's nice to get out there when the weather is nice for a change. A BL challenge at work is a great idea and since it was your idea, you have to really keep on top of it! (not that you wouldn't anyway )
Rose, I'm glad to hear that you are keeping up with the running, even if you do need to ice still. That will help you get through this week and then it sounds like progress will be made and you can concentrate on having a nice summer. 
It was funny because a couple of weeks ago DH was telling me that he wanted to move to NC. I was totally shocked because we are such total western U.S. folks. He wants to be closer to WDW, and Boston and New York but with better weather.
I'm not getting too excited about it since we don't have portable jobs, not to mention six more years before DS graduates. His school was just voted #59 of top high schools in the U.S. by Newsweek -- there is no way we would take him out of there now that we are in.
Nancy, I saw on Facebook that you had an adventure yesterday. That is one reason why living close to family is a good thing! 
I couldn't help but wonder if it was the neighbor who was smoking pot who helped you or someone else? I locked DS in the car when he was an infant -- luckily it was early in the morning and DH was about 15 minutes away. Some day you will laugh about that story!
Working with your spouse does have it's advantages -- your co-worker doesn't complain when you stay home to take care of a sick kid. It can be a disadvantage in that you feel like you can't get away from work. We had to implement a rule that you can't talk about work at home without asking and the other person is free to say "no!"
I lost 2.5 pounds being totally OP. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for another 1.5 pounds to get me back to a maintain for the week. It's a bit annoying to think that if I hadn't lost my resolve that would be four more pounds gone but that's what happens when you don't stick to the plan.
DS is really enjoying his summer camp. Apparently life in the teen group is fabulous -- you get your own room, different recreational stuff and only occassionally be with the "little kids." Today the little kids are going skating and the big kids get to play hide and seek in the church -- there are apparently some great hiding places there. It's nice when they like their summer program, makes Mom's life easier!
Have a great day Princesses and Belles!

(And this particular medication is only supposed to be taken once a day.) Mike and I did not want to hear that. Once he had time to process things a little he now says--I want the least amount I need to get me through school. The psychiatrist had him on a ton of supplements too, some of which we decided were not a good choice--too many side effects. I just want this week to be over. Tom can be a little hot head (can you say teenage boy
So of course I thought this was funny because here I am worried about ADD and he apparently at least pays attention to something. Even if it isnt correct at least he knew they redid the ride.
That is one of the rides I'm looking forward to doing when I'm at DL in January. That and the Car2 and Little Mermaid rides. 
I noticed the women's race thing, too, I just thought "oh brother, not again" 
Is it heating up again? I'll have to go check it out! 
I have to admit there is something compelling about these controversial threads and closed threads, too. 
for you for getting through the rest of the week, Rose. 
Tom said the other day--only 7 more weeks until I go back to school. I said--Tom, guess what, only 7 more weeks until you go back to school!
We are all fans, even DD, but especially DS, who happens to be named Luke. 
We are going to DL in October for a couple of days before our nephew's wedding and we can't wait to ride it and the little mermaid. I saw a rumor yesterday that POTC may be down for refurb sept-nov, if that's true we'll just have to ride several times in january! 
Sorry the PawSox fans were annoying. I've come to understand that Boston fans are not appreciated throughout our great nation. It seems some people are resentful we keep winning all the Championships 
Hang in there with all your various balls in the air -- good things will come, it just may take awhile to shake out 
than 
Princess Lisabelles -- perfect! 
How's the water main work coming? 
She weeded through what she felt was bring home worthy, and actually got a fiction book to read.... I picked up some fluff! We met mom for lunch, she took the girls, and instead of cleaning, or writing, or getting WDW ready, I read and then napped. It was good for my soul to be alone and not think about stress. 
to Lisa, Lisah, Lindsay, Nancy and Corinna! 
It was a Celtic province in Austria -- they were apparently smart and sided with the first Julius Caesar.
for finishing up your last paper. Good luck venturing into AK room and trying to find the DVD player.
this year, great way to incorporate her love of tumbling and talking. She eventually wants to cheer at VT. Anyway, right before tryouts we had a staff/7th grade bball game at the end of the year, and staff cheerleaders. They pulled AK to start learning (I was ticked at first, she was in front of the whole school not knowing what to do) I cheered collegiately for a semester until I couldn't hack the schedule and keep up my grades. So I lead the staff cheerleaders, and the coach made the comment "look at her, she's showing you up! Her jumps and technique is 10 times better." So during a quarter break, I did some roundoff and jumps on the court. The kids went nuts, especially the younger ones that still love me! On my run back to my sideline, AK takes off doing her mega flips. The older kids all said "ooooo.... you just got told" to me. AK was tired of being told her momma was better than her!
