Hey Elizabeth you always go in Aug. right? push next year back by 2 months. We are going to get AP's this trip and John wants to go in Oct. next year, that means I finally get to do MNSSHP.

MNSSHP is so much fun!

Its been so peaceful since I got home. The rugrats still aren't home from school, no cars have been by, no one is outside working or clearing a lot. All I have heard is the birds singing and an occasional airplane.

We can't travel in October. In October of 2010 DS will be in high school, so I definitely won't have him missing days. The APs we buy this year will expire 8/1/10 so we need to do some serious thinking about 2010 dates. We may only get one trip on these APs, which would suck.

Our AP will expire 8/8/2010 so I know we will be at Disney the last week of July (my birthday!) & the first week of August 2010.

DS is at Six Flags with the other Band kids. Their competition went well. DS said they are trying to find somewhere to get a drink - lines are really long. Which confuses me because the park didn't open until 2 PM. Unless it was open to school groups earlier.

Hopefully he will have a good time.

Part of our issue will be whether or not DS has any sort of marching band thing in August before school starts. The APs are the other issue.

We'll be there during that time frame in 2010 too. We plan to book a cruise on NCL's new Epic so we need to work dates around whichever cruise we book.

I am so mad I could spit nails. Why, because of 9 year old girls. At our meeting tonight, everything was fine until the very end. 4 of the girls went to the bathroom~ Emma and 3 others. Of the other 3~ one was Lily, Em's best friend and one is Maya R, her dad is the one Eric does scouts with and they live on our street. The 3rd girl, Maya A, goes to school with Lily. Emma and Lily are best friends through and through. Maya R is very jealous of Emma for various reasons. Her mom, Tina, has told me so on numerous occasions. I have just chalked it up to normal girl drama really haven't paid much attention to it. The girls play together outside and Maya R will come over here and Em will go over there.

Apparently, Maya R and Maya A were in the bathroom stalls (there are only 2) and they were not using them. They were playing. Lily was washing her hands. Em came in and said she needed to go. Maya A stood up on the toilet and would not let Em go. Maya R wouldn't get out of the other stall. Em kept asking to go and they kept saying no. Telling her they were putting a curse on her and such. At some point, Em must have gone and then Randy, Lily's dad, went to wrangle them as it was time to leave. I was busy getting stuff loaded in the van so I didn't notice Em as she came out. She immediately went into the van and sat. I was talking to Tina, Randy and Martha (Maya's mom) and Tina had both Mayas and Lily take our garbage to the dumpster. They did and Lily came running back separately and told Randy she was ready to leave. They left. Martha and Maya A got in there car and left. Tina and I finished talking and then I got in the van. Em told me she wanted to quit the troop immediately. ACK!!! So I pulled what I could out of her. All she told me was that they would not let her go to the bathroom and they were not being a sister to every Girl Scout. My daughter is ALL about the rules and making sure everyone follows them. I gave her a hug and told her I would find out more information and we would address any issues at our next meeting.

I texted Randy and asked him to ask Lily about the drama and if it was just Em being over dramatic, which she can. He called me back and told me about the curse and how they wouldn't let her go to the bathroom. Lily also said that when the 3 of them were going to the dumpster, the 2 Maya's were talking about Emma and called her an a **hole. Hence, the reason why Lily came running back and wanting to leave. Randy said Lily was crying as she was telling him about the night. She was mad at herself for not being a good friend and sticking up for Emma.

I knew it was coming but am not at all prepared for it. We have 3 meetings left and then our camping trip. I do not want the year to end on a bad note. Randy and I will be talking to the girls next week.

for Emma and for you. This is always very difficult for a Girl Scout Leader even without it being her own daughter. I'm very sorry that Em is having to go through this.

Those chickens gave me a chuckle this morning, Deb.

Robyn - I'm so sorry for Emma, Lily and you, too. I know this is not something that you want to deal with know. I hope you all can give the girls a good talking to, and that it sinks in. Alyssa comes home almost everyday complaining about a girl named Megan, who is mean, bossy and trying to steal her best friend, Meredith. Sounds like it is only going to get worse as they get older.

I'm sorry to say that is probably true!!!!

Janet - I am sorry we won't get to see you and your family this year. I have no clue when we are going next year. I know we will go, just have to sort out dates!

Debbie - Love the rose pic you posted on the Photo forum!

Thanks, I posted it on a whim. We need to find other DDA activities to do in August also.

Robyn - I'm so sorry Emma is going through this

I got our Mickey Monitor for passholders this week. We got 4 Discount cards to pass on to friends for a 10% savings on annual passes. You have to purchase the annual passes by July 31. Each of the cards allows a maximum of six purchase discounts.

Anyone buying annual passes before July 31 and want the 10% discount?

Hi! Our grill party of 25 has now dwindled down to 10 (and that includes Bob and I). Of course they all called/texted/emailed after I finished grocery shopping. Anyone feel like traveling to OH for burgers, hotdogs, potato salad, huge veggie salad, baked beans? It's ready around 5pm!


I should pack shouldn't I? I leave next Wed. for DISNEYLAND!!!

We're home. Nick's team lost, but they played MUCH better then they did on sunday. Hopefully the next team they face will not be quite a good as this team and then they can probably pull off a win. Both boys have games on Monday night. Chris is excited to get his team on the field for their first game.

So... one of the discount cards allows you to purchase up to 6 APs?

Hi All,,,The baby toe really looked awful this morning. Looks much better now. Still black & blue but not as bad. Pain down to almost nothing now.

Hope everyone has a great Mothers Day. Not sure what we will be doing. I know Hal will visit his mother, just not sure if he will take me out. Kids have their own plans.

Huggggggsssss to all........
