DDA Chapter 25

[PNO4TE]

Thank you. She received a reading award. Tomorrow is their last full day, then half days on Thurs. and Fri.

After the awards was the 2nd grade luau. The committee did a great job putting it together and it turned out really nice. Games, food, and fun. I stayed and helped out. Now I'm exhausted.

for her award! And I am glad the luau went well. Rest a bit!

Katie wants to go rent Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. I told her fine, but she cannot sleep in my bed tonight.

Actually that might not be a bad idea because maybe she won't take soooooo long in the shower after she sees it.

I love watching that movie!

morning ladies, Dads 2nd round of chemo is at 10 am CST, no more bright red spotting, but ocasional brown. I am off till friday. Was originally going to take Olivia to a twilight camp for girl scouts this week. but the spotting, nausea and over all tiredness I decided not to do it.

Continued prayers for your Dad and entire family!

What is twilight camp? Sounds buggy.

Maybe I should get it for Lizzy but then she'd probably just stop showering at all.

Congrats to Alyssa!

No other Mom from her troop could take her? Can you do the try its on your own as you're feeling up to it? Or any other try its that might be easier to do on your own?

IT'S SUMMER! We had fresh corn on the cob for dinner! Mmmmmmmmm!

Southwest released their fares into January today. No good deals for us for December. Well, there would have been, had they not discontinued non-stop service to Orlando from Dulles. Why they did that, I don't know. Now to fly SWA we have to fly out of Baltimore. It looks like it will be Airtran out of Richmond. I'm nervous about them.

part of the problem was their was only one other girl that was interested and its her dads week to have her. so no could do on the car pool. Yes I can do pretty much all the tryits with her once I feel better.

bummer about the non stops being canceled.

I was so proud of my kids today! We had our end of year Kindergarten concert--they were SO great! I was thrilled..now i have 3 more half days to go!

That's what Chuck & I had on Sunday night. Yummy stuff!!!! We had it with teriyaki pork chops on the grill. What did you have with yours?

When are you having your meet in July? I think it is around the 16th but cannot recall for sure. My AP is burning a hole in my pocket. Plus airfare on several dates in July is $40 or $50 one way before fees. Although I would prefer going to DL and DCA, I really want to see World of Color but I don't have a pass there.

I hope you are all doing well.

July 22nd. Are you joining us?

Painting day 106 (or maybe it just feels that way). I am working on trim now. I'm not sure I really have the dexterity or patience for this, but it needs to get DONE.

Have a great day, DDA!

When you're finished I've got project to do around here

Time for bed. I've got to head to bed soon since We need to be at school by 7 am for the class trip tomorrow. I managed all the shopping and errands for the trip, Chris and I went into the catacombs of the high school and retrieved a trellis and diner stools, finished a few last minute dance things before the last dance meeting. At the meeting we created a Diner sign using rope lights. I think things are in order for decorating on Friday, I hope so as we don't get back from the trip until Thursday night. I think Nick and I have all our camping things packed as well as our personal items. I have no idea where this day went, but it certainly went fast.

Deb have a good trip.

Good evening DDA!

I was trying to catch up last night, but the boards went down before I got very far. Now I don't remember where I was.

Jennifer - I'm glad the bleeding is slowing if not gone yet. Take it easy! I know just how you feel about not getting out. I can't hardly be outside in our heat and humidity so Terra's kind of stuck with the house and our yard.

Tammi - Congrats to Alyssa!

Jen - Yeah for your kiddos! Enjoy the last few days.

Deb - Have a good trip! I'm sure the dance will be wonderful.

Elin - Happy planning. I think I'll have to go over and see how the corresponding days for our trip next year look. Maybe it will give me a bit of a start anyway.

We had a nice, but quick trip. The weather didn't treat me quite as badly as I had expected so that was nice. Most days cooled 5-10 degrees from their original prediction and OK is rarely humid. I was laughing at the "muggy" on the forecast since their version of "muggy" is nothing. It was a lot like when Boston weather used to tell me we were going to have "thunderstorms".

Branson was nice, but tiring! A day and a half there at 23 weeks wore me out more than 5 days at WDW did at 29 weeks with Terra. Of course, Silver Dollar City is majorly hilly (think lots of the hills like that leading to Fantasmic), plus I am 7 years older, wasn't using an ECV and it was summer not Dec. In the end it made sense, but not near as much when I was dragging myself back to the car.

Oklahoma was good, but too quick. We saw about 1/3 of the family, but did get to see the newest baby so that was good! We also go to watch my cousin's little boy play t-ball, swim with part of the family and have dinner with my grandma. Dad enjoyed his high school reunion so it was worth it in the end. Now if only we wouldn't have had to make bathroom stops every hour and a half on the way home...

This week we're just getting ready for Chris' police academy graduation. He got word today that he passed the post exam. Graduation is Thursday night and he starts actual work on Saturday night. Unfortunately he starts on the overnight shift, but only for about 2 weeks and then switches to the evening shift. His training officer said he'll be working him a lot of overtime, but Kristi just says "Good! We need it!"

Okay, now that I'm caught up with everything and bedtime is 25 minutes away, I guess I'd better go eat my dinner. Night all!

July 22nd. I think it is Deb & her crew, Janet & her boys, Debbie & Richie, Anne Marie & her crew and me & my crew. Should be a TON of fun!!!!

That airfare sounds great! It has been crazy from here.

I paid $40 and $60 plus fees when I went down in May, if I would have waited it would have been $20 and $40.

Becky,
If already have an AP to WDW you really should come in July.

I upgraded my Give a Day pass in May. I wish I would have been eligible for the 15 month pass though.

I would want to be there by the 17th as some other friends are doing a meet as well. So not sure I wanted to be there that long. But I do have the days off to use. The other issue is a place to stay. I'll have to think about.

I'm in Lansing safe & sound. Off to bed. I have lots of stuff to catch up on now that I'm down here. I'll be in Lansing this week-end. My mom, sister & her kids are going to be here Saturday and Sunday. My nephew is going to basketball camp at MSU. I'm looking forward to seeing them all. It's been a while.

For whatever reason, I love mowing the lawn.

Takes about an hour. I mow the front, sit drink water huff anf puff, mow the back, sit, drink water huff and puff, mow the side and around the deck. Wipe the mower down and hop in the shower. Sweet!

Did anyone else order their iPhone today? att.com crashed all day, so I downloaded the Apple store app (yes, there's an app for that!) and reserved my phone since even they couldn't connect to att.

I'm going to have lunch with Terry tomorrow so we can figure out what times we want to eat in Palo and what excursions we want to book. Then it will be cruise thoughts 24/7 for 90 more days!

I sure wish I could manage the meet in July. That sounds like such great fun!

Anyhow, we will be in the world from October 2nd until the 4th. Doing EPCOT all day on Saturday and the party on Sunday. I'm actually not going to get to the MK until about 5:30. I'm watching the first quarter of the Eagles/Redskins game at the ESPN club. Hopefully by then the app will work for the iphone and I can finish watching in the park.

That's what Chuck & I had on Sunday night. Yummy stuff!!!! We had it with teriyaki pork chops on the grill. What did you have with yours?

We had baked tilapia, with an herb crusted parmesan coating, fresh cucumbers and broccoli, cauliflower and carrots.

 

[Tammi67]

Good morning.

Stephanie - enjoy your lunch with Terry!

Tia - I'm glad you had a nice trip.
