DDA Chapter 4

[PNO4TE]

Terri - Doesn't sound fun at all with the new carpet. I hope that you are doing better soon and get to enjoy your trip a little more.

Paula - Not fun! I hope your time while Mark is away isn't too stressful for you. Visit us often! Good luck on the emboridery.

Amy - Such cute pictures! I hope they had fun at the dance.

I was waiting until I got to the bottom of the page to post these very same three things! so, instead I am ditto-ing Tia. Thanks, Tia!

You are right, Denise. Epcot is to the south and the lake and BW are to the west.

I got that map from "disney zone . actusa.net/" (I wrote it that way because the DIS often blocks out sites like that one). It is a UK site, I think. It is not completely up-to-date but it served my purpose.

Thanks, Elin!

Kristine - I am glad things at WDW are fun and EMPTY! But so sorry to hear that the kids are sick

I can't wait to hear about Chefs de France!

 

[Tammi67]

Kristine - what do think caused the hold-up at Chefs de France? I haven't heard one good thing about the revamp of the DDP. And how do you combine the DDP and DDE? Did you use the DDP for the meal and the DDE for drinks &/or appetizers?

 

[Tammi67]

I think I saw the tooth fairy do a fly-by, so I should be heading to bed now.

 

[triplefigs]

Kristine, are you doing the Deluxe? I hope you and Bill have fun and that the kids feel better.

Night y'all. I teach again tomorrow and it's our Valentine's Day Party.

Let me ask a question.....

What would you think of a mother that buys her 5 yr old DD a cellphone (Firefly)?

Bob's ex bought one for Bethany. First, she and Bob can't talk civilly (she always flies off the handle) so she has told him not to call her, that if he needs to discuss something he has to email or text her. Hello? How can you communicate that way? They have shared custody of Bethany. Mom has her Sun. night through Thurs morning, and he gets her after work on Thurs until Sun night. Do you think the two adults might need to talk every once in awhile???? Second, ex is so annoyed with Bob that she doesn't want to have to go through him to talk to Bethany (when she is with her dad) so she bought her a cell phone. I can't believe it. You know, I thought dating a divorcee would be easier, because they've 'been there, done that', but there is an AWFUL lot of baggage that goes with it. I don't know if I have the energy to put up with it.

I'm not Kristine, but that is how you use them both, yes.

We enjoyed Chefs de France...and we would do it again!

The new dining plan is putting everyone in a dither...they can't run it through without getting the tip you decide...then throw on the dde for the extras...forget about it. Tonights meal printed out 8 receipts!!!! (for 2 dinners)

Poor BK, I hope the tooth fairy made it up to her

congrats, Nicholas! The tooth fairy forgot to come see BK a month ago. BAD TOOTH FAIRY! It was all that darn turtles fault...

Tammi...

Remember you can't cure insanity...and obviously the ex has a screw loose! You are trying to approach things rationally..and that will most likely not work for you...and in the end, drive you crazy!

I do know know several divorced couples who can only communicate via email....so that doesn't surprise me

and you're right...divorced couples = a lot of baggage...but in your case, you seem like you are getting a lot of good in the package...try to keep sight of that.

Luckily she lost it literally as she went to bed, so we explained the tooth fairy was already out seeing children, and that's why she forgot... and, yes, the TF made up for it!

Tammi I have no advice or comments, just a

Tammi, Kristine is right. In ANY relationship, there's good and bad. Unfortunately, his ex is very bad, but you know you love Bob, so you're going to have to create some coping skills when she rears her irrational, spiteful head.

Hang in there!

Kristine said it so well.

Tammi...
Do you remember Phil our segway instructor?? Well, he gave Bill & I a tour of the "house of tomorrow" in innoventions...

Thanks for all the compliments on the pictures I posted earlier.

Matthew took his haircut very seriously.

Alyssa and Kevin had a great time at the dance. They ate pizza and make-your-own sundaes and danced for two hours. This will be a neat annual tradition.

There is a "Mom-Son Prom" too, but Matty's not old enough yet.

one of Abi's last teeth the TF forgot her too...and we couldn't even blame a turtle!!

Glad that the TF made it up to the poor girl.
