Still doing ok here. Power is still on. I got the call that I may need to go in for emergency work starting tomorrow afternoon. Sounds like Sussex County (southern DE) is getting hammered with the high tides.

Good luck and God bless to all of you in the path of this beast!

Emergency work? That totally Sussex.


I'm getting kicked out of the office. They're sending everyone home at 3.
 
My turn to do the proud poppa thing. Similar to Norm’s weekend silver medal story…
my son brought home some silver competitive hardware this weekend...

Congrats to both families. Great accomplishments for the kids.

I posted on the bragging wall. Thought I would mention it here. My DS started 7th grade this year at the middle school and took accelerated classes for each subject. His grades for the first trimester.....A+...A+...A...A...A-...A+. He really did an awesome job adjusting to the new school and worked hard onhis studies. really proud of him.

Did you chastise him for the A-? Good for him.
 
Landfall for the storm has been moved up to around 5pm, Ground 0 will be anywhere from Atlantic City to Toms River, so where am I:confused3 Toms River is the next town over, I'm a little over 3miles inland, everyone who lives over the bridge on the barrier island (point pleasant, seaside etc) had to leave yesterday

All you can do is hope for the best, but I got a light at the end of the tunnel, will be in WDW Sun:thumbsup2

Take care Mark. Hope the power stays on.

Just talked to the Pirate Princess Pirate. She woke up around 1:00 today. Oh to be in college again. Right now about 40 mph winds and some rain. SH gave her vegetarian meals that included 2 Uncrustibles, cheese stuff sandwich things and bagels. Plus bottled water. She also bought her own water and energy bars/snacks. They are looking at this as an adventure and rolling with it. Plus they have glow sticks if the power goes out.
 
Monday afternoon ownage!

Said the the Wife: Sounds like we should reward him. How about a trip to DW.
Wife: No, we agreed 2014 is when we would go next.
Me: But he did so well that I am sure he needs a relaxing vacation.
Wife: We don't relax in Disney.
Me: We can this time, I promise.
Wife: Can we bring my mom and dad? (MIL/FIL)
Me: OK, 2014 it is.

You should have left early. You know, just in case this thing wipes out the eastern seaboard and you can't make it.

Congrats to your son and :rotfl2::rotfl2::rotfl2: about the inlaws

Hi :wave:

Here is what we have done in case of power outage....

What about donuts?

...
There was some disappointment in our ranks as well. With three straight wins, second seemed somewhat lacking. I’ve had to give a couple of folks a bit more perspective on it. The truth is that there are 30 other schools in our class alone that didn’t get that far, and a couple hundred in all the classes that didn’t either. We have much to be proud of. In only six years of existence, our school has three firsts and three seconds; never any lower (as of yet). That’s a record to be very proud of.
...

Yes it is and well done. Best wishes in Indy!

Still doing ok here. ...

If you go to bed at 6 AM, getting up at 1 PM is reasonable. :confused3

Even though she is a vegetarian you need to send her this in her next care package. She can always use it to barter for wine...

Good to hear you're ok. Stay safe.
 
Guess who gets to watch this week's Colts game from a suite!!! :woohoo::banana::yay::woohoo:



Now don't get me wrong, I'm grateful, but a little more notice would be great. Our company gets a suite to a game every year and invites some employees and some brokers from other companies that we deal with. This is the third time I've been invited, but the first time I can actually go, because they never tell anyone about it more than a week in advance and if you already have plans that Sunday... :headache::sad2:

Hey! Norm and I will be there too! We will be slumming it down on the 50 yard line though. We could have the first Dis Dads NFL meet :thumbsup2

Why wasn't I invited? Have fun guys.

Norm told me it was take your nemesis to a NFL game day :confused3

Can you swing by and pick up Rob for Andy :lmao:
 
Just rain in the eastern KY at lower elevations. Higher elevations along the VA border are starting to see some light snow.

I'm in Louisville the next few days. It is cold outside, but no rain.

Was that Don?!

:lmao: :rotfl: :lmao: Now we know what he retired to spend his time doing. :lmao: :rotfl: :lmao:

Youngest dd had all As for the first quarter and she got $20. Wow, a trip to WDW is great. I can't believe you let the inlaws deter you from a trip to WDW. You should have countered with "are they paying?".

Just talked to the Pirate Princess Pirate. She woke up around 1:00 today. Oh to be in college again.

Oh, those late night parties with the catholic school girls. Legendary.
