DDA Chapter 16

[Tammi67]

I see you didn't float away!

Speaking of floating away, I am proud to say that I have 2 new sump pumps in my house, thanks to a wonderful man that I know. Although it still cost $400 for the purchase.

 

[Tammi67]

The only ones I have a clue about are Tink and Bolt! Who the heck are all those others???

Mittens and Rhino are Bolt's sidekicks. The other are Tink's fairy friends.

I am guilty of changing ADRs for every trip. But only one or two. I also cancel ADRs that we won't be using and that always amazes the CMs I talk to.

Most people change a couple. The ones I'm talking about go on and on about how they have changed them 4 & 5 times. It is crazy.

Isn't it sad that the CM's are surprised that you cancel the ones you aren't going to use?

 

[Steffy]

Miss Steffy-did you get a package at work for you and Miss Terry??

Yikes! I didn't know to look for one! We're not back to work until January 5th! I went in for a few hours today, but didn't look at the loading dock for packages. I'll look tomorrow...

I am packed. Kristin and I will leave here about 6:00 tomorrow morning. I need to do some kind of manicure since the place I go closes at 5:00 and I didn't get over there until 10 after 5:00 tonight. My polish is looking ragged from the past week at WDW!

<cough> Kristin? 6AM? <cough> Is she staying up all night or are you going to roll her from her bed to the car?

Drive safely.

There's another fairy named Fawn (at least I think that is her name). There are 4 fairies as well as Tink.

We bought one after Hurricane Elizabeth came through in 2003 and were without power for 4 days. Haven't used it since.

What about the Ratatouille characters? Are they still there or did they get canned by the Bolt guys?

 

[Steffy]

We're at an awkward stage, since the kids are too little to do the whole clipboard thing, and Kevin and I just don't have enough hands between us to juggle big photobooks, etc.

I'll make something, but it's going to have to be simple. I'm determined to keep my sanity!

Hi Beth!!!

 

[Tammi67]

After I picked the kids up we went back to our house and got Bob. He was here working on the pumps. Then we went out to dinner at Carraba's. After 45 minutes our meals arrived. My pizza was cold, and Bob's Lasagna was tepid. I commented to our server and she got Bob a new helping and threw my pizza back in the oven. When it came back it was a slight bit warmer and soggy. I asked for a manager and after explaining our dissatisfaction, she comped ALL of our entrees. That was more that expected. So we got 4 dinners, 3 salads and beverages for $5+tip. They bill originally totaled $36. That made my soggy, cold pizza taste good!

Don't forget the one gallon of water per person.

Safe travels Elin.

Here's a simple idea.

Use blank address labels and print a character clipart and the character name on each one. The purchase a blank book at WDW. As you see a character you can stick a sticker on the next page and then get the autograph and a photo. Attach the photo to the adjacent page and voilà, simple, custom and easy to juggle.

Thanks! That was pretty much my line of thinking, but I am going to check to see if our Borders has any blank sketch books/journals, since the store is closing and everything is 40% off.

Have a safe trip!

I think I'll call it a night with my post count. It's been a rather long day. I had to "rescue" Kevin this morning, since his service engine light came on. $352 later, we have a new ignition coil.

Last night, we met some friends at the zoo and we're getting together with some friends tomorrow night and Julie and her family on New Year's Eve. I love socializing, but I hope we have some downtime before our trip!

Thanks for the character help. We saw Remy, Emile, and Handy Manny on our last trip. Hopefully Handy Manny is still out, since he's one of Matty's favorites. Fawn is the 5th fairy...thanks Vicki!

Good night DDA!

Yes.

Was that in response to the adr's??

Talk to me when he purchases the lime for the outside toliet. I have a friend who is a survivalist. He has pallets of canned food, water, a generator, manual can opener, battery operated radio, compass, I could go on and on.

However the generator is not a bad idea. My nephew, who lives near you, his basement was doing fine while the sump pumps were working. As soon as the power went out, his basement flooded again. He was not a happy man.

What a guy! Just imagine what the labor would have cost if "they" had installed them! WTG, Bob!
