DDA Chapter 15

[UP Disney]

I need to go get something for dinner but I just don't know what I want tonight. This eating out all the time is for the birds! They instituted a new policy where I can only be reimbursed for meals during the hours of the meal while I'm in travel status. This means that I can't buy groceries for the week when I get here even though I have a fridge and cookstove or I won't get paid for the meals. Where to go? What to eat?

I just stumbled across a shirt I bought to give to Sister, but I think it would be too small for her now.
It's a "High School Musical" light purple, long sleeved T-shirt, size XS(6), "Tween fit". From the Disney Store, all tags attached.

Any takers? First one to speak up wins!

Well I most certainly don't want to be a drag, but I have had a really bad weekend. My plan was to for Terry and I to lay out our cruise stateroom door. Pick our tshirts for each day. Have fun with my sister who I was supposed to pick up from the train station yesterday.

Instead I am getting ready to go to a memorial for a friend of mine that I have known and loved for 30 years. She was 100 years young.

An acclaimed artist and award winning bridge player, we met at a writers class at F&M many years ago. I feel so lost. It doesn't help that my Mom's birthday would have been this week.

My sister's best friend's mother died last week. My sister has been so busy with the funeral and giving comfort, that she was sort of relieved when I called her Saturday and asked that she wait to come until Monday. She needed to spend the weekend getting ready for the trip.

And then my daughter's friend from college, her mother died yesterday. So I am hoping with that, that is our 3.

Sorry to be Debbie Downer. I am trying so hard to just focus on the 12 days!! But even that is not working.

I'm so sorry, Stephanie. Sounds like a rough week for all of you. Don't worry about us. Just let us be there for you. We had our 3 a couple of weeks ago. Nobody really close thankfully.

Just some quick reading along will everyone is playing with Kristi's Wii. We're having Chase's birthday party and she wants to play with her new toys before we move on to cake. Good for Chris as he needs to charge up his batteries a little bit before we do candle blowing pictures.

 

[Steffy]

Suck up.

Thanks. I needed that.

Remember, we are always here for you! Through good times and bad. That's what true friends are for.

Stephanie, you all certainly have a lot on your plate. I'm so sorry to hear of your losses.

Steffy, , I'm so sorry for your loss

I am so sorry, Stephanie. That is an awful week, I agree.

I'm so glad you are feeling better. Good luck with the clothes and have fun tonight.







You aren't Debbie Downer. You actually helped give me a reality check. to you. I'm so sorry. I've been sitting here feeling sorry for myself because I want to decorate but can't (major sinus headache -- I hope yours is gone Jennifer) and my shoulder is really sore, when I should be following our Church lesson today and giving thanks for all I have.

oh my....I am so, so sorry Miss Stephanie. I hope that is your 3 also.

Steffy things have to get better

There. At least someone has their priorities straight!
Stephanie, I am so sorry for your losses!

We are here to share in the happiness and the sorrow

I'm so sorry, Stephanie. Sounds like a rough week for all of you. Don't worry about us. Just let us be there for you. We had our 3 a couple of weeks ago. Nobody really close thankfully.

Thank you so much for all the hugs. I needed every one of them.

What a wonderful celebration of her life. When she was born, woman were not even able to vote. When she died, she has witnessed a history making election. What a life.

That is what I want when I go. I want my friends to get together and have a party. I want you to tell stories about me. I want you to share some of my secrets. I want you all to laugh.

You got it! We can cover that for you! Of course, we have at least 40 more years before that.

I went to my favorite place for soup. I found it through you guys. Panera. I got a bowl of cheese broccoli soup with a french baguette and hot chocolate. Yummy!!! Nothing like comfort food when I'm sitting alone in a hotel room.

 

[MrsHeg]

Oh goodness! How long were they on the stove????

I'm really not sure, I got too involved in other things

Tom - Congrats on being chosen one of the Thrifty Fifty! That is wonderful!

Congratulations, I can't wiat to see what all you come up with!

Sounds great, I'm considering trying out the recipe for Canadian Cheddar Cheese Soup, there is a demonstration by a Disney chef on YouTube and it looks fairly easy.

No need for an apology!

It is easy to make... Just time consuming. I do it all the time!

 

[tink2020]

Marci and Jennifer, I hope your headaches have both gone away!
