She is thrilled. My husband is going to the concert but I'll be late it's award night for the brownies.I just hope I get there in time.Tell Kyle your dis friends said Happy Birthday.
to your 7 year old Kyle. I have a now 7 year old Kyle as well.
So there we stood outside the bowling alley with 10 little kids who were more than ready to bowl. We tried calling -- no answer. The police were driving by so we had them check for another number to reach the owner at. They had none. I had purchased an ice cream cake, and needless to say it was quickly turning to soup. We had just decided (after waiting 25 minutes) to walk over to the park and just picnic and play and get Little Cesars Pizza when the bartender pulls up. She never said a word, just opened the door and went in and started turning on lights and stuff. So we went in and I went up and said, "The time was 5 was it not?" She said oh, I had car trouble and thought the manager would be here and I tried to reach someone to be sure, but noone answered. I got here just as soon as my car got started" Never an apology.
I really wanted to say a few other choice things, but I had little kids with me. My parents had one, but when it had trouble, noone would repair it since they were not supposed to use it anymore, so my dad just closed it off. I think there is some stuff stored in that room now. I remember as a kid always thinking how cool it would be to turn it into an indoor swimming pool.
Becky the sale is June 1 and 2. I hope I can get things together too. I have a couple of couchs, and a table with chairs but I have lots to get rid off. Yes I'll be there Thurs. My daughter finally got a singing solo too. She has tried out for three years and finally got one.
Driving might come into play tomorrow, we shall see. Actually, now that I think about it, I probably will. Our 4th graders are going on a walking tour tomorrow (nothing about packing a lunch which is weird since it's from 8:30 - 2!!!) but I'll pack anyway -- usually it's written in the assignment notebook -- nothing about it. If it's hot, DS is not going to appreciate having to have walked all over on a history tour, walking from the school & back then turn around and walk to our house. We don't live *that* close -- close enough to walk but it's still a hike.
I will be calling Thursday if we don't hear from them but it's through the Park District & they are usually pretty good.
Tell your Kyle HAPPY BIRTHDAY
, I will keep them in my thoughts and prayers. 
It'll be over before you know it (that's one nice things about crazy weeks, they do go by fast).
I couldn't believe my eyes when I read about Kyle's b-day party. A double about the bowling alley not apologizing to you - how sad!!! 
Becky -to Kyle!!!
**Good luck with your busy week
I think I got the jist of it though. The school used Quinlan & Fabish for orchestra and it was a completely different experience, maybe there were just less kids doing orchestra and so it was less hectic on sign-up. I felt they explained things better. Just wondering what I've gotten myself into and if anyone has had any experience with them.
I will get to it shortly. Kids are begging me to put up the pool. Maybe this weekend. We need some sand to level out the ground from last year. It didn't settle well over the winter. Does that mean I can't keep trying to win the big prize? 
We have it opened, but it needs to be scrubbed really good. Kevin is going to put on his scuba tank and scrub the walls that way, and then after that, the pool is open!!!! 
making the mistake of watching the American Idol finale..........can they possibly drag it out any longer
And the question is..........why am I even watching it when I haven't watch all season long
time of the month that nothing seems to keep my attention...........I am closing in on the end of the female fertility cycle and BELIEVE me it is not coming fast enough.......... enough about getting old!! Sorry about the bday party......no customer service anymore. 
and 
All! I tried posting last night but, the DIS was kapoot! Bear with me while I catch up.....even late for me......
I'm glad you have your inlaws there but I'm sorry there was no notice! Yikes! Even more sorry that their health is not good. {{HUGS}}My in-laws are in town and gave us no prior notice they were coming!!!!
They just called up DH on Sunday afternoon and was like "surprise we're here"!!
Mom in-law's cancer has returned and I think she has it in her mind this is her last trip here. She just found out last week it returned, for the third time, and then they booked a flight here spur of the moment.
And father in-law got sick since being here. His health is not good AT ALL, especially since he's 86 yrs old.
We really can NOT believe they even came out here!
Health wise neither of them should be traveling!!!!!!
I HATE THAT!!!!!!
Double Ditto!!Tiggerrn2 Too bad about the party but I bet the kids still had a good time.They always seem too.
We are too! At Kerasotes. Is that the same theatre you're in also?Sam - I'm in that $5 Buck Club too, but I've never used it
Never used it either, DS is a part-time manager there now so, he gets 1-2 of us in for free (once, so far) and, Kelly's report card always earns 1-2 free admissions as well, every quarter. While I absolutely HATE the people that DON'T reply, I did find that if I kept bothering the 1 or 2 that didn't reply, they finally replied! DD is having a FREE summer movie party, NON-BD, NO GIFTS required, just FREE admission, and popcorn and drink and tokens for her and 9 of her friends. We decided on 7/15, after ruling out 7/14 when some of the girls will be playing at Thillens, and 2 families hadn't replied yet. I'm down to 1 now tho but, when you clearly state a REPLY is REQUIRED/NEEDED?? ---- do these parents NOT have parties for their OWN kids and want the same COURTESY?!?!
I am closing in on the end of the female fertility cycle and BELIEVE me it is not coming fast enough..........
I'm sorry, that was funny! Never heard it referred to as that! Cool, COLD breezes coming your way!! 
I'm up so late because of Idol and Lost, and packing. Too much in one night! But I think I'm about ready for bed. you guys were on awfully late. 
He taught me how to use the one item I bought (We didn't have this at the other store I worked at). It was easy to learn, but it's going to take alot of practice I think I'm going to have to buy some pieces of cheap moulding at Menards so I can practice using my new saw and my new joiner (that's the items I spoke of). 
There are so many fees to talk about that they all start to sound the same. But he said he can do better than the first person I talked to, so that makes me happy!!!
