DDA Chapter 27

[PNO4TE]

Tammi/Anne Marie-funny how we were all pretty close to each other that day. Sorry we didn't get together. I don't understand how times moves so fast at Disney.

And isn't it funny that you will often see the same people over and over again when you are there? You don't know them, but you keep running into them! Yet, when you have friends a few rides away you never see them.

Tammi - I am loving your pictures. You are a good photographer and it shows even better with your new camera!

Deb - Kudos to you and your community for pitching in and helping one another. Who would have thought that land-locked Vermont would be so devastated by a hurricane.

Good morning, DDA!

Today is supposed to be the last nice day for a week. The remnants of Lee, the storms in the mid-west and a little disturbance that passed by us yesterday are going to converge and sit over top of us for the next 5 days or so. What a dreary way to start the school year. And I feel so badly for those in our area who still have no power!

 

[PNO4TE]

Good morning.

Deb - isn't it amazing how communities pull together in times like this?? Kudos to you all.

I did NOT see this post before I wrote mine!

Tammi-sounds like another good day! I love the way you ended it with dessert and Illuminations!

Good morning everyone! Im working on cleaning the house today and organizing some things for work. Tonight, I have 11 people coming over for our big fantasy football draft. It should be fun!

We certainly never expected it. Now we are very concerned about the reminants of Lee. They are predicting 2-6" of rain, heavy at times and our already saturated ground won't be able to handle it. I'm sure they will evacuate many areas in preparation.

Tammi-loving your photos! Some people set nice examples for their kids. Some woman pushed her way into the TSM queue one morning-when the line extended way beyond where she was trying to step in. DH apologized to her but I somewhat loudly said "you don't have to apologized to someone who pushes their way into the line". I turned around a few minutes later and she was gone.

YES! We saw a Mom & young son at AK at Dinosaur and she was asking how scary it was. Then the next day we saw her again at DHS in the Toy Story Mania queue madness.

Sounds fun!

Hope you get too much!



Working on uploading my photos to Kodak. I didn't take a ton. It's not like we haven't been there and I would put my camera in my bag when it rained. Gene & Joe are at church-the video guy is showing Joe how to use the mixer on the computer for the 3 cameras and to prepare the video for the cable station. Emma & Lizzy are at different friends' houses. Emma is with a nice boy in the neighborhood who will be in her class. So with all of them out of the house I can get on my desktop to upload the photos.

Tammi,
love the pics and the trip report.

 

[bear74]

well its labor day and I am glued to the TV but not watching movies. Watching the local news channel and praying that the winds dont get as strong as the weather man is predicting. So that the fires can be contained.

 

[PNO4TE]

Thinking of you, Jennifer.

Thinking of you, Jennifer.

thanks, last night the smoke was so bad that when you walked outside it smelled like a very big bon fire

I'm so sad that summer is over! I don't know why but it's bothering me more this year than any other. I loved the lazy days at the pool, staying up way too late and sleeping until we woke up on our own, instead of setting an alarm clock. So not ready for bedtimes, homework, schedules, backpacks, lunch boxes, and rushing every evening, trying to make sure everything is done and the kids are in bed at a decent time. Oh well...........111 shopping days until Christmas!!

I hope you all had a great weekend. Can't believe I have to head back to work tomorrow.

I posted pics from my trip to California for the D23 expo and to Disneyland on Facebook. You can view the albums at

I need to start training for the half marathon, although the weather is trying to make that pretty hard with all the rain and flooding. The ground is so saturated and it just keeps raining so it automatically floods. I have started riding the stationary bike I have, but I do not have a treadmill. I figure it is better than nothing.

I'm having a really hard time with it this year, too, Tammi!

Hope the fires are brought under control soon!

Me too! I just don't feel ready for school. They summer seemed to fly by. We pushed to get Lizzy into Algebra so now I have to be sure to keep on top of her. I really believe she can do it but she can be lazy. 111 days til Christmas??? YIKES!

I hope you all had a great weekend. Can't believe I have to head back to work tomorrow.

Your links aren't working for me. Would love to see your photos. I need to step up my 1/2 training too!

I'm back to work tomorrow too. So not looking forward to all that has to be done between now and Veteran's Day. Don't know how I'm going to do it. Makes me worried about keeping my job. Everyone else is worried too so that creates a very stressful environment. Doesn't bring out the best in everyone.

It seems like summer just flew by--i can't believe we are into September!

I hope you all had a great weekend. Can't believe I have to head back to work tomorrow.

Welcome back!

Good morning, DDA!

Add me to the group who is not ready to go back to school.

 

[PNO4TE]

Becky - The links worked for me this morning. Lots of great pictures!

 

[mommykds]

Tammi,
I agree Tammi, this was the fastest summer we have ever had. My kids went back to school at the end of August & I am still not ready!

Becky,
I am really enjoying your pictures. Hope to go to DL some day.

Elin,
Good morning!

Bernadette,
Good luck with work.

Jennifer,
Hope things are better today. Stay safe.

 

[Tammi67]

Good morning.

I'm enjoying the quiet, but I really should be cleaning.

Bernadette - good luck with work.

Jennifer - hope things have improved.

Becky - love the pictures.

Nicholas' bus was 45 minutes late. I was told that I wasn't allowed to go to the bus stop so I was a good mom and didn't embarass him. But I did find out after the bus was 15 minutes late another mom drove over and all the kids piled in her van to stay dry. Nicholas is gone before Alyssa even gets up, so they won't see each other until after school. I can't wait to hear how the first day went!
