DIS Dads DDC XVIII - Spring Fever!

[thheaton]

Not the Sasquatch. At Disney the tend to just stand there motionless with a strobe light behind it

 

[DisDadDoc]

forgive me, I'm still new. either way I like it.

Thanks! My oldest is autistic. We have a Dis Dads DISabilities thread on here somewhere, but it's been pretty inactive lately. No forgiveness needed!

Excellent, I got an email tonight confirming I got the ressie for a cabin up north. It's at the Campground/resort where my parents stay, just around the corner from them July 15-22 It's not Disney, but it is something I did every summer growing up plus some. Will be a lot of fun to be sure. Kids get lots of time with grandparents and swimming, and still have a place to go to when we need some space from 'em too.

My Orangemen won! Even though I didn't have them in my bracket I am happy. Shows what I get for thinking.

Actually made it 23 hours without drama at work. Glad I was on the road all day in dead zones rolleyes1) so I couldn't be reached.

Actually got to see some of the hardest hit areas in eastern KY after the tornadoes. Pictures don't do it justice but the clean up is going fairly quickly. Fire danger will be high with all the burning and warm temperatures.

I found it the other day. I haven't posted but have some questions as we have only been to disney world once with DD. I will have to post them over there and maybe revive the thread.

<--Thumb.

I wish my kids got more grandparent time. Too far away and they (kids and grandparents) are all aging too quickly.

got to love those dead zones.

Tried last night to sign my son up for the Disney Yes program, but everything for the week we will be there was already booked, you can get some sweet prices on tickets if you do it

I would like some good grandparent time, but it's hard to find. My dad turned 80 today, but stopped living 25 years ago when his company sold out. He was given a nice severance package and retired at 55. But, he identified his success with his job, so by his account, hasn't had any success since then. He had his second stroke last year, so we do not get much visiting time with him. My mom, 11 years younger doesn't visit often. As for Inlaws, MIL would feed children candy 24 hours a day - actually fed oldest dd candy until she vomited. FIL can drive dds alone in vehicle short distance, but that's about all he can handle.

Either way it looks like you will have some good family time. That is one reason I get the mail. SWMBO doesn't even know we got a PIN we can't use.:

I offeredm to carpool. Go for it.

Sounds like a lot of fun. Have a great trip.

There was some discussion a few pages back about a song regarding Steve and Mary Beth Chapman's daughter Maria.

Here is another song that will stir up the dust on the speakers for those dads with daughters.

Evening guys

Hey Dave. I repled to fb message. I still am learning my iPad and forget to check places.

For my Family... yes sir!

For you, maybe a beer if you show up.

I was hoping to get a free trip. My goal is to make it out there 1 year, but that is much further in the future.

Yeah - we did CRT for lunch last year too - but this will be the first year for BBB. I don't even know if DD4.5 knows that it's available. She's going to be blown away!

Are you doing the full package? We did. It was pricey for both dds. I told mine that I am not going to spend that much again, but they want to go back to have their hair and nails done. I'll consider that in the future. Both mine had a great time.

Sorry to hear that. I remember there is some drama involved but you and Mrs. AirGoofy are doing a great job with your offspring.

Appreciate the offer. If all holds together there may be a ticker for next year. I do the taxes and have been holding back a little on the federal refund every year to build up some surplus for the last 16 years. A forced savings account that DW isn't aware of and I may be able to surprise her with a trip. Not what I would recommend but the only way I could do it. Deferred gratification isn't her strong point. If not, Lord willing and the creek don't rise, it will be for our 20th anniversary.

Do I blame you for mine as well and what did I ever do to you?

No, you had yours before it was operational. I was still trying to find a spot for the self destruct button.

i thought i seen a pic of you holding your hip, leg? i think we need full medical disclosure. you maybe damaged goods. from the pics i see of tim, the only thing that may be worn out is his elbow.

It was a bum knee, but it hasn't bothered me in a while. Ran 4.5 miles tonight and it never buckled once!

Distracted by the NCAA's. Imagine Barry is not feeling well right now.

no problem. just messing with ya. that was a fun game. not from Barry's perspective though.

Didn't even see it - I was out for a run. I'd catch very brief glimpses on other people's TVs as I'd run by houses with the curtains open.
From what I've read on Facebook, they had a chance at the end and blew it. Kind of glad I missed it.

Sounds like a great time! I've got a lot of very fond memories from my childhood at various cabins in Wisconsin's northwoods.

I hear you. Both of my parents have passed and DW's parents live 1,200 miles away.

 

[that's nice]

Hey there Dave. I haven't seen you around for a while then you come back and start slinging insults? I have a way for you to fix my elbow... lock me up in the MK!

Why, what happened? Did he try to bake Bambi in farts again?






I'm sure you are talking about Wisconsin losing.

Tonights picture from the farm...

We pretty much have everything done that we can do at this point so this rig is done until we're ready to start working ground right before it gets planted. I had it in the shop tonight to change oil and do routine maintenance. Also, we had some parts ordered for the cultivator that just came in, so we'll probably start working on that while it is backed in there.

I like that garage it's huge, how many cars do you think you can get in there

 

[RodBelding]

Heard a statistic the other day; Vasectomy's are performed 50% more often in March then any other month. The rational being that men take the 3 days recuperation time to sit on the couch and watch the NCAA tourny. Not sure if I believe this statistic or not, but I really want to.

You could of washed it too.

That is a big garage. I need one like that to store my boat in.
