DDA Chapter 19

Terry the first time I meet John's family and saw how standoffish they were, I wondered what I had gotten myself into. Of course he probably felt the same way, but he took to my family more quickly then I took to his.

thanks Debbie,
you sayed at OKW resort right.

Yes, we stayed there in November, and we will be staying there in May.

Okay. 15 and one half hours of travel later...... I'm in love!!!

I sure hope I like it half this much when I see it in the daylight. Right now, it's da bomb!!!!

Needless to say, I'm off to bed. It's 4:00am!!!

We want pictures!

I talk too much.

But, thanks!

Congrats, I'm still working on 3000

morning......i go to disney this week!!!!!

Good morning,

I have tried to keep up with the posts this weekend. I had about the worst ever weekend with Katie. She is so mad about the move & I just can't deal with it anymore. She's only 13 & she has me so frazzled I can't imagine what it's going to be like when she is 16 or 17, has a boyfriend, or access to a car!!! She's so angry that she came out with some real zingers.

So I apologize for not doing individual responses & I am sending to everyone.

I really like Elizabeth's sugestions, I grew up a "Military Brat" so moving was the norm, I actually enjoyed meeting new people. I did have a really hard time when we moved to Montana though.

Anne Marie- Many 's to you and some

Terry- I am sorry you have been in pain. I hope you feel better soon.

Bernadette- I hope everyone is feeling better today.

Deb- I hope that by the end of today everyone is feeling a bit better.

Tammi- I am sorry that you and Bob have hit a bump. I am sure, though, that you'll be able to work through it.

Jen- Disney THIS week!!!!

Steffy- I hope daylight brings the same giddy feeling!! Relax and enjoy!

Debbie- I sure hope that you and Richie will be able to squeeze in a trip in Aug. I'd love to meet you!!

Jennifer- I loved your photo pass pics. Can't wait for the trip report!

Same her Robyn, I really do think we can swing it.

I am ready for 2010. It has to be better then 2009. I am just so fed up with my life. Telling me I have had a crappy year just makes things worse, as it reminds me what has happened.

Dad has a fever of 102 again. They are not sure if it is because his body is trying to heal or what the case may be.

My co-workers sister who has colon cancer went back into the ICU today. This is the 13th day of 30 she has been there. She was also rushed into emergency surgery as she had internal bleeding caused by the surgery to help her.

My Aunt is officially abandoning her family in May and moving to Tennessee.

Maybe I should just run away to a cabin on an abandoned island or the side of a mountain. Or maybe I should just hop in my car and drive coast to coast.

I hope that all of you are well.

I am off to try and study. Hopefully I will be successful.

This too shall pass

Deb, all the boys I know didn't want affection from either parent at Nick's age.

 

[Pooh67_68]

WTG Timothy, no worries soon you will figure out how to roll back over.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Becky sorry this year stinks for you. May it get better soon.

Chris says that he sounds like a chick and wanted to know if he was PMSing. He hadn't read anything on here so the fact that you said he was acting like a chick and someone else mentioned PMS so it was quite funny to hear his comments.

Chris and I still call each other a few times a day just to check in and say "I love you". We managed to cuddle on the couch for one hour every week during the amazing race as that is date night. Other than that we seldom sit together. Holding hands is pretty rare as usually one or more kids will squeeze between us, same thing on the couch. Heck we even use separate blanketson our bed We do frequently give hugs and kisses though. The fact that you both have children kind of makes the closeness thing difficult at best and come on, we all need our breathing room. I think I would feel smothered by what you were describing.

Chuck and I rarely sit together but we are talking about getting a love seat recliner so that we can. Our recliners are about 10 feet away from each other. We hold hands pretty much everywhere we go. We talk to each other at least once a day. He calls me a little more than I need but I feel guilty for being away so much so I give him that. We have slept with his arm draped over me since we got married. It drove me crazy when we first married. However, I decided that for all his wonderful traits, I could put up when he is a little needy.

If the only thing you can fault him for is being a little needy, it is totally worth it! Men like Chuck don't come along very often and it sounds like Bob is a keeper. I'd rather have a man that wants to give and get attention than one that didn't take care of me.

'This gun is loaded with blanks' she said. 'I had to beat him to death with the chair.'

MORAL:
Women are crazy. Don't mess with them.

That's good.

 

[Tammi67]

Just have to share this with y'all.....TIMOTHY JUST ROLLED OVER FROM HIS BACK TO HIS STOMACH! Of course, once he got on his tummy he couldn't get back and so got very angry! Still, I didn't think my baby was ready to roll over! And a bummer too, since he did it so quickly I couldn't grab the camera. Poor Alan, he'll just have to deal with me telling him about it.

Yay Timothy!

 

[Tammi67]

Deb - sounds like you had an awfully rough day.

I like this your points Vicki. Thanks.

Me too!

Becky. I'm so sorry that everything is still so mixed up for your family and friends. that your Dad is better soon.

This is not about you, it's about her. The feelings she has about this move are too big for her to manage. She can't be respectful and still express to you how much turmoil she is in. She does respect you, but she doesn't care if she gets in trouble with you right now. The move is consuming her, every thought she has is about the things she is losing. She has no frame of reference to help her deal with it, and she feels like she is drowning and she feels like you and Dana do NOT get it.

Maybe have her talk with the youth minister at your church, or a guidance counselor at school, or ask your pediatrician for a referral to a psychologist to help her sort through her fear and anxiety. Getting pulled into the drama will just escalate into the two of you against her, and she will be even more resentful. She doesn't have to like the idea, but she has to cope with it, and she might need a little assistance from a thrid party to find her coping skills.

Brava, Elizabeth. Anne Marie... this is excellent advice.

 

[my3princes]

Chris is on sick kid patrol tonight and tomorrow. I'm heading to bed and in hopes of getting sleep and of not getting sick. Talk to you tomorrow.

 

[PNO4TE]

Just an FYI, the first day of my TR is finally up! I'm working on getting the picture link how I want it, because I'm obviously not posting every picture here.

A trip report!

 

[lovesdumbo]

morning......i go to disney this week!!!!!

You must be so excited. Did you buy Universal passes? Does the one you bought expire? Could you save that one and use the free one? When I was looking at AAA Disney passes for my friend who went in February I think it was the 5 day pass that saved money. I think the 1 & 2 day tickets were the same price as Disney.

Good morning,

I have tried to keep up with the posts this weekend. I had about the worst ever weekend with Katie. She is so mad about the move & I just can't deal with it anymore. She's only 13 & she has me so frazzled I can't imagine what it's going to be like when she is 16 or 17, has a boyfriend, or access to a car!!! She's so angry that she came out with some real zingers.

Sorry Katie is having such a rough time with this!

Colby and I just went to school to pick up Hunter Fever, cough and tummy ache. He's already headed to bed and Colby and I aren't far behind. I am so glad I rearranged my schedule yesterday as today would have been a nightmare otherwise. The school has been advised that my kids probably won't be in tomorrow. They thanked me

Hope your boys are feeling better soon!

Well, it looks like we get to have a Tues departure to Oklahoma after all! I don't have the baby Tues or Wed so I think we're going to just leave in the morning instead. It may change Chris' plans, but I'm not sure yet. I've got to talk to Kristi still to finalize it, but at the park today it sounded like she was good with us leaving tomorrow (it's her vehicle and son involved too). That will be really nice since two cousins are leaving town Thurs and Fri so we would miss seeing them. Plus, everyone there is on spring break too so there's plenty of time to play.

So, I guess I had better get moving on the rest of the laundry, packing, making sure dad has food, etc. I'll try to catch back up again tonight.

Have a wonderful time!

Just have to share this with y'all.....TIMOTHY JUST ROLLED OVER FROM HIS BACK TO HIS STOMACH! Of course, once he got on his tummy he couldn't get back and so got very angry!

Lizzy was home with a fever today. It was only about 99 this morning but 101.8 but the time I got home from work.

 

[Tammi67]

Elin - who is Diane, and why does the whole FF area need to know she is turning 40?

 

[lovesdumbo]

AKL IPO called me tonight to tell me my flight to MCO didn't exist. I gave them the new flight number for ME and then had them cancel San Angel Inn. I added Chef de France at 6:10pm for Sunday night but now I'm rethinking that. Have any of you read about the small animitronic Remy they have there? I have heard he isn't there on Sundays and only til 6pm so I'm thinking I should do a different day. I don't know if I'll stick with Chef de France or not.

We have the Sunrise Safari on Sunday morning and then no TS meals on Monday or Tuesday so I think I'll change things around again.

I was also considering The Wave-I think Joe would think it was pretty cool as he loves the CR. I was also considering Wolfgang Puck Cafe. I was thinking about paying OOP for California Grill to use the 2 extra TS points for these 2 places but I don't know if I really want a TS meal everyday.

Hmmmmm.....I think trips with picky eaters or non eaters might have been easier.
