DDA Chapter 4

[Tammi67]

Tammi check your email. I signed up under my other email address & I was sent a code instantly. I guess there was a glitch & some that signed up are not receiving the code. If you have another email that you don't use, go to Airtrans website & click on the envelope & sign up again.

I got your email, thank you! I'm signing up under my work email and cox, got those codes, but my hotmail isn't getting one for some reason.

Denise - it sounds as if you made every attempt to mend whatever rift may have been brewing. I hope that you all can be neighborly now, for everyone's sake.

well said!

 

[tmfranlk]

You practically were! I changed it while Tammi was catching up this am, and before several others did. Some even talked about changing signatures, etc.... Beth did PM me because she logged on just for a minute (didn't have time to catch up just yet) and noticed it.

So Robyn, at the point which you asked -- no, I wasn't enjoying taunting you, but I was enjoying laughing at you!

Thank you, Chanon!

Congratulations!!! It just seems right for your little family.

 

[PNO4TE]

Good point.

 

[tinknme]

What about their NetEscape email?

I am... still no coupon.

 

[Tammi67]

Yep but I don't have any more to offer...


That's what three open webpages are for!! I know it's a long shot, but have you looked on the budget/transportation board to see if anyone has some they aren't using?

I did post over there. Good point about the 3 browsers being open. Now I'm just totally confused over which flights to book. The cheapest flights, $54 one way, departs MCO at 2:30, which means we will prob have to be on ME at 11:30, almost a whole day lost. The other flights that day are $104. Plus they have stops in Atlanta. But that $54 is soooo tempting. I'll talk to Bob tomorrow and see what he thinks.

Robyn - love the new pictures!

Love the picture Robyn--too cute!

Just checking if my new avatar and siggie are working!

Love it!

So am I the ONLY ONE who noticed Jennifer's ticker???!?!?! Or am I missing posts?!?

CONGRATS JENNIFER AND KYLE!​

congratulations Jennifer and Kyle--Im so excited for you guys!

Nicholas is now a black belt!!!!!

Congrats Nicholas!

I hope dinner was delightful! Please extend my congrats to Jonathan!! Something to celebrate at that Valentine's Day dinner.

Congrats Johnathan!

Tammi how many more do you need?

Maybe someone here that has not signed up, could for you so you can get the code?

Just make sure you click on the envelope on Airtrans website

 

[Tammi67]

Tammi book all 3 one way tickets at the same time. When you get to the page to add the codes, you put one in & then go through the same process 2 more times. I booked ours the same time, no problem. Watch the box to your right & it will show your $25 credit each time you add a code.

Oh ok, so they give you more than one box for a code?

 

[Tammi67]

I need 3 more, to cover Bob and Bethany.

 

[PNO4TE]

What about their NetEscape email?

I get that

 

[tinknme]

Please get non stop tickets I swear Atlanta & I do not get along. Both times I have had a layover there, I ended up spending the night in Atlanta

I'm sure all would go well for you though

ETA: both times were due to bad weather, not the airlines fault.

Finally caught up!
What a great day i had! the massage was amazing and i hope to be able to get another one soon
Then, 5 of us went out to lunch and actually stayed in the diner for over 2 hours chatting and eating slowly--we had a blast!
after, 2 of us went to see "Definitely, Maybe"

Now im home and exhausted--but relaxed!

 

[tmfranlk]

The party sounds wonderful! I can't wait to see the pictures. And the catfish from Cracker Barrel is my fave!

And it was Friday Fish Fry so it was the smaller pieces which I think are even better. Add to that the fact that the biscuits were the best I've had there in a long time and it was a good night.

 

[Tinkaroo]

Really? I guess that would have been an interesting question as well, when everyone was posting guesses. I assume most would have wanted B/G

Good luck to Jonathan, and to you for getting through the next few months! I never see Kyle, so maybe we can keep one another company! Enjoy your dinner (or at least time out) tonight.... don't you love those GCs?! We have a ton sitting around, I should look at them again. But the price is so good, it's impossible not to stock up, especially when they run their 60% off deals!

I totally would prefer daughters - I am just more of a "girly girl", and afraid a little boy would just puzzle me. (I know I'm probably raising God's sense of humor with this conversation. ) Jonathan wants one of each, but I think he'd be fine with 2 girls ultimately. He does really want a daughter. I think with twins, the same gender would be easier - but what do I know!

Thanks for the congratulations for Jonathan. Yes, we can DIS together!

The weather here is beautiful today. 72 and just like Spring outside. The kids and I have been out here (I'm on the laptop) since 11am.

About the neighbor, I truly appreciate everyone's advice. I prayed about it last night and did a lot of thinking about it last night. I received confirmation from Webkinz that the $$ was taken out on Wednesday. I saw the neighbor outside today and went to talk to her. I told her I was sorry about confronting her abruptly yesterday and without really giving her a chance to reply. I handled it wrong, and I was sorry. She said her DD has been grounded with NO priviledges for 3 weeks so it wasn't her that took the $$. I said that BK only told her, but if she said it wasn't her DD then I would believe her and said I was sorry for wrongly accusing her. I said that I didn't want the girls sitting next ot each other on the bus as the things she has been saying to BK may not be inappropriate for HER DD, but they were inappropriate for BK. She said her DD has been having nightmares for weeks over the scary stuff she's been telling BK? And I said then you think it's ok for her to tell MY daughter? I also told her that I had talked to BK and her DD on Monday to tell them she couldn't have BK's Webkinz. She kept asking BK every day anyway and then talked her into giving her the password for her account. Her mom NEVER once apologized for anything or for any of her kids' behaviors... I told her that I wanted no animosity between us, that I had told my children they were to be polite to their family, if they saw her kids outside and I was out too, they could all play. She said that was fine.

It's amazing. She never took any accountability for anything (not surprised), never apologized, NADA. I personally feel better and feel like I was the bigger person, apologized for how I handled it wrong, etc. If I see her at the bus stop, etc, I will be totally comfortable with myself.

Then 30 minutes later her DH comes over to see John and talk sports like nothing had happened. The dad and kids were all waving at us outside, and the mom literally hid her head behind her hand. I think the mom is just . But it's over as far as I'm concerned. I don't think her DD will be mean to BK either. And if she is, I'll handle that too. Thanks again for all the advice.

What an admirable way to handle the situation, Denise. Lots of that things calm down on this front.

My flights for our trip home from Disney are booked I used a code for each of us, so I saved an extra $75 Now I will keep my fingers crossed that our flight getting us there drops some.

I almost boo booed & booked the 15th from home to Orlando Glad I caught it before I paid!

Chanon & Robyn I used your codes along with mine. Tammi I still have Lindsay's code if you need it. Thank you all so much for helping me out & Thank you Terry as well!

WTG!

Wow - free?! I hadn't heard that. That would be awesome! I'd stay for free on an extra trip if that was the case.

ETA: I just told Chuck about this rumor and he said "I know I read that on the DIS". I asked him where he found the info and he said "I read Tammi's post". I told you he was lurking again. I said "So you did see pictures of my hair today". He says the husband is always the last to know and that he's hurt that no one called him and told him that he could see pictures of his wife's hair on the thread.

Chuck, we don't know if you're out there if you don't post!

my geeky DH used Mendel and his sweet pea matrix of fun to predict we would have brown haired, brown eyed sons...

Glad he's not trying to make a living as a geneticist!

I got your email, thank you! I'm signing up under my work email and cox, got those codes, but my hotmail isn't getting one for some reason.

I'm sure you've likely checked, but it's not in your hotmail junk folder, is it?

 

[tinknme]

Well now I really don't know

Your right they are in cahoots with Disney against you

I get that

Glad you had a good day, Jen! I am getting my first massage at this new spa on Monday, and I'm very excited!

What did you think of the movie? I think it looks cute. Our local paper gave it a D.

Genetics are a funky thing. When I was little my hair was very light blond. My eyes are blue. My mother has dark brown hair and brown eyes, my father had brown hair and hazel eyes. My sisters both have brown hair and brown eyes. None of us look much alike. I guess my sisters look more like each other - they don't look like me.

I mentioned the other day how my mom has 2 sisters, and all 3 of them have 3 daughters. In each set of 3 one of the girls is blond. None of the parents are blond. Not sure about eye color.

DH is a redhead (back when he had hair, anyway) with blue eyes. DS is blond and blue eyed with blond eyelashes, which he got from DH. My eyelashes are dark. Of course we are all HORRIBLY fair skinned. DH is freckled. DS gets a little freckled in the summer - mainly across his nose. It fades in the winter, though.

The twins I know the best are a set of fraternal boys. They resemble each other but I could always tell them apart.

My sister and I look nothing alike- she is tall, skinny has brown curly hair and brown eyes. I am none of those things. Well I have the brown hair now but growing up it was blonde and poker straight.

My cousin has a set of fraternal twin girls but to this day I cannot tell them apart, they are 14 now. They look almost identical.

Robyn glad to hear you are feeling better & love the new signature!

Thanks- on both counts!

Congrats to Nicholas on achieving your black belt!!

I am sorry everybody is still feeling icky....but did you have to send it this way??? Jim is feeling off today I just hope it's not contagious as we were with my fragile great uncle....Jim tried to stay away from him. that it goes away soon for everybody!!


Lindsay-tell Jonathan congrats!!! and don't work too hard.

In my family: Jim has blue eyes....I have the ever changing color eyes(anything from brown to green). You put pictures of Jim and I together at the same age and we look like siblings. Cassidy has my uncle's bright blue eyes and Abi has blue/green eyes and until Abi shot up this year everybody thought they were twins.

for Jim and your great uncle.

My flights for our trip home from Disney are booked I used a code for each of us, so I saved an extra $75 Now I will keep my fingers crossed that our flight getting us there drops some.

Chanon & Robyn I used your codes along with mine. Tammi I still have Lindsay's code if you need it. Thank you all so much for helping me out & Thank you Terry as well!

Thank you! If nobody else has asked for the codes, I could still use them.

I sent you an email.

We managed to create a canopy for Colby's wheelchair today. This one was much easier than the one for Hunter's. I was walking through BJ's the other day and saw a lawn chair with a canopy for $20. I figures I could remove the canopy and use it on the wheelchair and still have the lawn chair. Amazingly it worked perfectly with some simple hardware for Home Depot. Of course it did take 2 trips to Home Depot to get the correct supplies Now I just need to make the rain cover and that chair will be good to go.
We still need to replace some parts on Hunter's canopy as the copper piping we used stretched over the course of our last trip and it is too wiggly now.

I wish I had half the creativity and drive that you have.

Wow - free?! I hadn't heard that. That would be awesome! I'd stay for free on an extra trip if that was the case.

Too funny

Robyn - I love the pictures of the Supermodels in your signature!

Thanks- Molly was in rare form on the trip!

I am guessing you were doing some catch-up reading and saw the change in her signature after she had finished posting it this morning.

I knew you knew but I couldn't figure out how you knew. Her post about not bothering Elin during the day but the ticker was not there yet.

But, does he have 32 pairs of shorts???

my geeky DH used Mendel and his sweet pea matrix of fun to predict we would have brown haired, brown eyed sons...

Hope he didn't put too much stock in that matrix

 

[tinknme]

There is only one box. Put your 1st code in & it will take you back to that page. Put the next code in & so forth. It had me confused, I thought I had to book them separetly at 1st.

Hope you get all the codes you need!

Oh ok, so they give you more than one box for a code?

Please get non stop tickets I swear Atlanta & I do not get along. Both times I have had a layover there, I ended up spending the night in Atlanta

Thanks for the advice! I prefer non-stop. The less I have take off and land, the safer I am.
