Dont forget to squeeze your family of 5 into a Value Resort.

What about my soon to be family of 6? Are you trying to say we can never go value??

Let me tell you a little story about Value Resorts.....

Me
My sister
DD
DS
DD's BFF
Nephew#1
Nephew#2
Nephew #3

There were kids everywhere!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course that was the same trip that I thought I heard Disney Character voices coming out of the air conditioning vent...but that's another story!

Awww....I don't blame you for missing the Matrix but I'm glad you got your minivan

Thanks. I am feeling a little better about it. I still wont put my kids in cords and turtle necks though.

NEVER!!! YOU ARE DOOMED!















Ok seriously, that probably wasnt funny given the emotional state of the minivan crisis earlier. They do have Value suites you can get. See all is well in the world.

I cant get over my sister asking if I was crying or laughing... She was totally trying to not laugh at me. Not well, I might add.

All is indeed well with the world. For now.

Pix...so what do you think is attracting all the spiders to your home? Do you leave lots of outside lights on? That gives them a good food source as the other bugs are attracted to light. Or do you just live in an area with lots of spiders? Or do you call the Orkin man, he comes out and sprays them, so they get mad at you and are seeking revenge?

EEK!

Ahh the joys of fall.. cooler weather and scary as heck spiders.

We had one living on our patio last year.. DN blew smoke on it and it died. Hubby was always woried about it coming out and trying to bite anyone as the web was right below the railing.. where we all leaned when outside as we didn't have patio furniture.

So what was DN smoking?

What kind of drink did you have before going to bed the night you heard voices?

soooooo this was BEFORE the Prozac?




We were telling J he is screwed genetically.. both E and I had schizophrenic grandmothers.. they were really bad, requring hospitalizations.

Anyway, he was being silly and said a cup was chasing him (it was windy) and trying to "get him" .. and I stopped all serious looking and asked "Did the cup talk to you ? Because you shouldn't listen to those kind of voices"

I have no clue.....we have a light that automatically turns on when it senses motion but they are in front of the garage (at the corners) and some near our front door. I'm scared because sometimes my grandma will sit on a bench out front and I don't want her to get bitten.

Spider be gone..

It's been a VERY long time since we.. oh wait.. umm never mind.

YEP! All in one room at the Pop! That was the year DH couldn't go, so I took DS, DD & her BFF. Then my sister and her kids came over to join us for a day or two. I can't remember if they stayed only 1 or 2 days, but I do remember stepping over kids all over the floor. Those rooms are pretty small also, so it was like a bunch of sardines. But I do have to admit, we had fun!

 

[eatmypixiedust]

I don't know why we have so many spiders....it's really freaky. We have Western Exterminator come every quarter to spray inside and outside. The thing is, the techs have been rude and also spray very miniscule and then we continue to have problems. We had to call to have them come back just a few months ago because he did a lousy job and didn't spray the entire house. The manager called me and said if we ever have problems to just give him a call. I will call him tomorrow morning. He did say that if we have problems that we have a warranty and he will send out the techs as much as necessary, until the problem has been taken care of.

Maybe you should try someone else if you continue to have problems.

Those are the best sometimes!!

Thanks. I am feeling a little better about it. I still wont put my kids in cords and turtle necks though.

Oh yeah, I meant to ask: What the heck is wrong with turtlenecks and cords???

My kids look so cute in them!

I've been looking. They either charge way too much or they don't service our neighborhood.

 

[funnygarcia]

I'm readin up on it.. do you have a lot of shrubs, long grass? Keep it clipped back and away fomr the walls.. then again, we didn't have much shrubs and still we had them

What kind of drink did you have before going to bed the night you heard voices?

Funny story actually...my cell phone wasn't working, so I borrowed my brother in law's. My sister brought it over to me. But, his phone doesn't ring, he had it programmed with this cartoony sounding voice that said "Bringgggg, Bringggggg, PICK UP THE PHONE STUPID!".

Now this was about my 5th day or so at WDW, so I was beyond exhausted. Early in the morning this phone starts talking....I wake up in a daze. At first I thought it was the wake up call, but our phone isn't ringing. So I started thinking, did I sleep thru the wake up call....so now the phone is talking to me on a speaker?? But NO! I wake up a little bit more and I can tell that the voice is coming from the corner of the room!

Well the only thing I can see in the corner of the room is the air conditioning vent up near the ceiling. AND IT'S TALKING!!!!! I have no idea what it's saying, but it's talking!!!!! So I wake up a bit more and it quits talking. I'm really freaking out thinking, am I imagining things??? Nope, then it starts again! Only this time I'm more awake so I get up out of bed and walk over to the corner of the room, staring up at the a/c vent. Totally impressed that WDW has talking a/c vents!!! But sort of freaked out at the same time because it almost sounded like Goofy. Of course then it finally dawns on me....it's my BIL's phone that is sitting on the table right below the a/c vent! DUH!!!!

I have no problem with talking a/c vents, so what is the problem with talking cups??

If this is the mean grandmother I wouldn't worry too much.

Or you die from chemicals, whichever comes first!

In my day... only geeks wore them. I never got cool clothes when I was growing up, s I try to do what I can for the beasties. I also dont put Alex in classic fit jeans... They make him look REALLY skinny.

I've been looking. They either charge way too much or they don't service our neighborhood.

Bummer.
