Dads of the DIS talk about life, bacon, Disney, bacon, kids, bacon, cars, bacon, family life, and lots of other fun stuff! And beer. And bacon.

Ugh. Hate those money problems. It is actually easier for me to take my fruit and vegetables from my research plots than donate them to a food pantry because of all the hoops accounting runs us through. Don't even think about trying to sell anything to fund the next project.:rolleyes2

Last night I was tired, and could not focus, which is NOT good dealing with money.

Really it wasn't a huge amount, actually $4...but still no reason to be over or short, it does get on your record. It was sitting right there, and I overlooked it 5-6 times??:confused3 Weirder still, after I went back at it after letting everyone else out of the store (kinda a big nono being there alone), I look and there it is !!!!!two nickel rolls..:crazy2:

Well, they weren't until they decided to laugh at me...:rotfl2:

Goodness me, I do love an act of vengence! :rotfl2:
 
Hope the shoulder feels better for some diving this weekend for you.

Also, tell those pesky Marlins to ease up on my Cubbies, you're starting to make us look bad. Oh, wait, we are that bad... :(

Cubbies are up 3-2 right now.

Oops they are now down 4-3.
 
That way I can say to the Brit - We saved your butt and the German - We kicked yours. And that is when the fight started.

Perhaps your injuries aren't due to the dog, but an early arrival and fight with international friends.

! :rotfl2:

I remember those days as well as cashier. Drawer always had to be right. Hate to hear that.

Greetings gents. Just popping in again for a weekly hello. I see you're still on XVIII, but getting closer now to the next one. I'm sure you'll be on the next one before I come round again.

The business continues to move forward.
!

Good to hear from you and thanks for status update. Hopefully, you're business will get so crazy busy you'll need an assistant in KY.

DW had a Dr. appointment yesterday. He started off by telling us to pick a day... either next Monday, Wednesday or Friday. After further examination, he decided he doesn't feel comfortable inducing at this point so he's ordered an ultra sound, stress test and something else for next Wednesday morning. Due date is Saturday, but it looks like it will be later than that.]

There's a way you can induce labor. Just sayin.

Part of my job is to be in tune with conditions on the ground so I can properly advise visiting ships/personnel and make security related decisions (to include putting places off limits).

Admittedly, that is one of the funnest parts of the job:laughing:...but I've always kept things above board...always.:cool2::

I'm sure you do. Couldn't resist that opportunity. :joker:

Safe travels. I'm heading out Saturday AM at 5:30 for a meeting in Marion County and back.

And safe travels back at you.
 

Exactly like my youngest as well.... The only thing he didn't go on (he was 6 then) was ToT, he made it to the front of the line, and chickened out just as we were boarding.

He promises he will go on it "next time" which is in August..... shhhh, don't tell him. ;)

She loved ToT. She talked about it all the time. Once she finds out we are going in June I'm sure that the rides are all I will hear about. I love them to so I can't wait either. At least I finally have Someone to ride with. We have a lot of fun together.
 
Good Morning!

So, we're getting close to time for our trip, so I'm going to pose some questions.
We've got the following Table Service
So the question is: what are the best options for these places? Cheddar Cheese soup from Le Cellier is a must, but what else?

when's your last day there?
We arrive June 14

DW doesn't like ToT either. Some time she rides it, but keeps her eyes closed the whole time. Usually, it's just me and my two dds.
 
Dog went to the vet to get the stitches out, got the rental car, publix for booze and snacks. DD is stalling to finish cleaning the house but will get it done. Just need to get gas and pick them up at the airport at 10:00.

All this running around, has aggravated the shoulder. Think I will be popping pills tomorrow morning so I can look at fishes in the afternoon. DD won't let me take Chum with me.
 
I'm supposed to be day dreaming all day... :cloud9:

I'm supposed to be surfing the web for all things WDW... :surfweb:

I'm supposed to be planning and thinking of nothing other than my trip... :idea:

Why did my boss give me a project this morning that he knows that I will not be able to complete before I leave?!? :headache:

Sometimes, I feel like I work for Fed! :lmao:

How dare you be expected to work before your vacation. It's not right.

Keep trying to get rid of our cat. I hold the door open, hoping she'll run outside and disappear. She won't go near the door.

I can't believe anyone wouldn't like ToT. :rolleyes1

I don't understand it either.
 
Getting ready to leave on my road trip. Talk to you tomorrow sometime. I have my mega millions ticket, like I do most every Friday, hoping this will be the last week of work.
 
Greetings gents. Just popping in again for a weekly hello. I see you're still on XVIII, but getting closer now to the next one. I'm sure you'll be on the next one before I come round again.

I just mowed my lawn for the 2nd time this spring. I was stubborn, and refused to do it until April, even though it was starting to need it in March. So the first weekend, and now again. Blech. But DS13 came out and said he would do the back for me, which is good. For the past 10 years I've always done the 1st, 2nd and last mowing of the season and the boys do it the rest of the season. So he sees he's up to bat. I like it. :)

The camping with the Scouts is ramping up again. I haven't personally gone with them since last fall, but this weekend. :thumbsup2 I'm looking forward to it. My boys have gone several times since my last time, but like other things, I took a little break from that aspect of Scouting. But it's time to get back out into a tent! My wife and DD are going with on a separate campout with their AHG Troop at the same time. It'll be a fun time for all. DD is so excited! This will be her 2nd campout in the woods - they do more overnighters at the church or in someone's backyard typically.

The business continues to move forward. Working with 2 different clients at the moment inching them closer to the go line. I've got about 6 in the hopper right now mulling itineraries. Went to an awesome trade show that came to town yesterday and met a lot of great people. The networking thing is coming together. I've joined two different networking groups locally as well, and the leads are starting to come in. I head to Ft Lauderdale on Tuesday for a CLIA convention, and from there up to WDW. It'll be nice to be in FL for 10 or is it 11 days? I think 10. I'm looking forward to that. Going to meet up with some of my WL Groupie friends while at WDW too. (I would have happily met Dads too... but none will be there the same time as me). The WDW portion has some Disney stuff that I need to do for the other gig that I do with/for Disney, but mostly I have no agenda. It'll be fun to just BE there, and of course to see first hand the progress on New Fantasyland.

And now it looks like a trip west in the cards again so I'll get to experience all of the fun new stuff getting ready to open at DCA this summer. I can't wait to experience Carsland! And Buena Vista Street! It all looks so amazing. I won't be able to be there for the grand opening June 15th, but that's okay - when I get there in September the crowds will have dissipated a tiny bit. I'm going to be combining that with a trade convention, and a little family time.

I'm still trying to figure out when I'm going to get to Tokyo DL. Looking at 2013 now, and will probably do Hong Kong DL in the same journey. DL Paris is still in talks as well, but I'll combine that with a river cruise. That's looking to be 2013 now as well. So we'll see how it all shapes up.

Anyway - just wanted to pop in quickly and say hello.

I have a meeting to run to, so have a great day guys. See ya on the next thread, I'm sure!

:wave2:

Sounds very busy and exciting.

Only 3 disney Parks in 2013? And none in North America? :worship:

Anyway, the weather is back to mild conditions, so after we left the hospital yesterday afternoon, I headed out to work on the farm. I was working the ground for the last time in front of the planter. Got home at about 11 and then was up with DS, who has an ear infection until 2. :faint:

Oh well, here are a couple of pics from the farm last night.

Go for Wednesday... That's my Daughter's birthday... she is going to be 10.... :eek:
 
Good to hear from you Stopher.

Andy, it is getting close. Maybe we should start a baby pool?

Didn't get much sleep last night. Well, almost no sleep. Decided to give the tickets away to the game and rest the collar bone. Tomorrow is more important then today. Will watch it on the tube instead.

Picking up the friend from the UK and his German co-worker tonight. Have to go to Publix this afternoon for weekend refreshments. The Brit needs Gin, the German needs beer and we all need munchies.

Have a good rest of the day.

And for those that asked, the Mutt I did not want is still alive.

I just came back from a Massage (Registered Massage Therapist - not one of those rub and tugs ;) ). Have you ever had one - they do wonders to relax those muscles.
 
I've often wondered who has more energy, a 5 yrd old hopped up on candy and magic, or a seasoned 19 yr old park hopper? Take good notes and let me know how it goes!


Matt
the 5 year old will crash. the 19 year never sleeps.:rotfl:
