i feel bad for saying this because of what you are going through elizabeth. i just learned that my uncle had a cancer scare. he had a tumor on his kidney but it turned out noncancerous.

Don't feel bad! I am glad to hear that your uncle doesn't have cancer!

Elizabeth what time are you leaving tomorrow?

Our flight is at 8:50 AM, so we'll leave the house around 7 AM. I *think* my friend is taking us to the airport, but if not, I will just take my car.

HAVE A FANCY BIRTHDAY

ALYSSA​

Happy Birthday, Alyssa! I hope you have a wonderful day and enjoy the play.

The Easter Bunny brought Brantley-Kate a Fancy Nancy book. They are great. Isn't that the theme of her party?

Today was my kiddos last day of school, and they are on Spring Break tomorrow and all of next week. I teach in a different county, and I do have to teach tomorrow. After I get home, we're headed to B'ham to see John's family for the weekend, and then I'm taking the kids by myself to Huntsville to see my grandmother before she is moved into the Nursing home. I won't be around much. So PD, Prayers, hugs, congrats to you all while I'm gone. And we leave for Disney 3 weeks from Saturday!!! Does anyone have links to stuff at the Flower and Garden Festival? We've never been. Something else new to try this trip! Do they sell any F&GF shirt?

Hi!

It was nice enough here to take an hour walk around our local preserve. This weekend is going to be rainy so I am glad I went. I walk the mall every morning before work but I just needed to be outside in the sun.

Are you packed yet?

Yes. I just threw some stuff in a bag yesterday. It's not like packing for Disney.
I have my jeans in the washer so I'll have clean ones to wear tomorrow. I need to switch my purse so I am not carrying a bunch of stuff I don't need. My friend is definitely picking us up in the morning and DH will get us on Sunday when we come back.

Thanks for the info, Janet!

prayers and pixie dust here please....Abi is in the throws off an asthma attack, and I just got guff from a nurse for leaving her in her sister's capable hands for 10 minutes between my dropping her off and Jim coming home.

ETA: okay now that I have had time to calm down.....Abi had a very mild asthma attack and didn't have a rescue inhaler at school. So I went to pick her up...in the car....her breathing normalized and only started shortening as we walked up for her to get in the house. I knew Jim would be home in 10 minutes and I sent Abi into the shower to cool down. Gave Cassidy instructions and came back to work..a minute away...to call the dr's office. Nurse got me riled up. It was a mild attack and if she had had ANY stronger symptoms I would have called 911. I have dealt with asthma attacks...I know what I am doing and I know my kid....ARRRGH.

for you and for Abi. You are a great mom, and you know it!!! We know it, too. Give her a hug from me, and the both of you take it easy for the rest of the night.

Hello all! Sounds like some busyness around the DDA today. Hope everyone is doing okay.

Kristine - I the gnome! I need a garden so that I can have one!

 

[tmfranlk]

On the Disney Screening Room thing I was invited to join after the Mom Panel rejection ( ) we've started getting clips from the new Tinkerbell movie. Thought some of you might be interested. Here's the first one:

There will be more posted over the next week or two. If anyone's interested I can post them as they are posted to us.

Hey, I gotta save some room for "honeymooning" you know!

Beacause I couldn't go on a Disney Cruise unless he could go to Universal for Halloween Horror Nights. So I made sure I booked concierge. And added two more nights at Disney for punishment of going to Universal.

Seriously though, we really do like Universal. The HHN's are awesome, the park is relaxing and I love the fact that everything is in walking distance. Plus staying onsite we can sleep in since we have FOTL access. (I don't think they'd like us wearing our wedding ears there though...)

Did you see this deal? I am not sure if it works with your plans or is a good deal for you.

Universal Studios
Two Park - Free Dining

Guests staying at either the Hard Rock Hotel, Portofino Bay Hotel or Royal Pacific Hotel can get free dining at both the Universal Theme Park and Islands of Adventure.

* Travel Dates: August 17 - October 9
* Book by: June 22
* Minimum of 3 nights, maximum 7 nights
* Offer is for the first two guests in the room. Additional guests must purchase the meal deal for the entire stay
* The first two guests in the room are required to purchase the 2 park Unlimited admission ticket and additional guests are required to purchase park admission
* Guests are provided with two Universal Meal Deal Plans and two unlimited soft drink cups. These allow for unlimited food/beverages from 10:30am till a half hour before the park closes at the following locations:

o International Food and Film Festival
o Classic Monsters Cafe
* Islands of Adventure:

While this offer can be a great deal, if you have more than two in your room, you must pay for adding on the features for the others in your party. It's a smart idea to compare prices with other types of admission (without the meal offer) to see what's the best option. Get a no-obligation quote

If I miss you, have a safe trip!

Yes. I just threw some stuff in a bag yesterday. It's not like packing for Disney.
I have my jeans in the washer so I'll have clean ones to wear tomorrow. I need to switch my purse so I am not carrying a bunch of stuff I don't need. My friend is definitely picking us up in the morning and DH will get us on Sunday when we come back.

Morning...

I hope no one has flights on ATA...I saw on the news that they are bankrupt and canceled all flights and sent all their workers home!!

Finally getting a sunny day here....

What is ATA? Please tell me that isn't Airtran! My sister, mom, niece and nephew have their flights on this airline.
