No! It's been about a week, and they're still working on the siding. I don't know why they started it so late in the week last week, because they still aren't done. It's been waking me up every morning because they start earlier than I think they're supposed to, and because our window isn't fixed yet it's stuck partially open and so it's extra loud when they work.

I hope when they're done they'll give us a date for the next set of things they have to do, but who knows if they actually will.
Grr! I hope they get it wrapped up soon. The window being open would drive me crazy.
The floor guy (just ONE guy!! he has done more in three hours than I did in three DAYS!) is here and it is so. loud. Clang, clang, clang. Otherwise it's too quiet in here because he's the only one making noise. Three dogs are in the garage acting like they're dying, one is out here with me, watching every move the guy makes from far away. (the guy is adorable, but his accent is very strong and it takes me a minute to process what he's saying, so there's a lot of awkward smiling and nodding going on.)
It's Xavier's birthday today, so I've been making his cake and just all around feeling guilty that this poor man is so tired and I'm in here baking. I mean I guess it's his job, but I feel bad!!!
Yes! That's what I was thinking at first too many breakfasts/character meals because I really prefer to have better quality food over character meals if it comes down to it. But now we only have WCC, Cape May, and Garden Grill ETTB package for breakfast so I think that's okay. I also don't want to add too many signatures because of the price, but also because I get basically the same thing at them all (steak). We have YS and Citricos there. As much as we like burgers we already have (Dluxe, Scifi) so I don't want to add more. I'm looking to add one more and I feel like all my first choices would fit into one of those (breakfast, signature/steak, burgers) so I'm not sure what to pick!
Oh no that's crappy of them! Do you think maybe she doesn't realize she's doing it or have you had a difficult relationship in the past? You are definitely working hard to give her the perfect trip, and I hope she's a great trip partner especially after your MIL last time.
Just go with Disfriends we'll appreciate you
That's my problem, too. I want the better food, but my mom is not very adventurous with dining, so I feel like I have to make "safe" choices.
Oh, we have all kinds of issues, lol!! We've lived in our current area for five years, and they've only been here once. They're three and a half hours away. I've been back there at least ten times, sometimes just to go and spend an hour and turn around and come back home. Like for my niece's birthday. Last year I was going to skip it, but my brother was so upset, so I cancelled what I had to do that day and drove over, stayed for the party where everyone ignored me anyway, then drove home. But my brother doesn't even remember when my boys' birthdays are. So...you know.
She will definitely be a better trip partner than MIL though, because she likes to do fun things and she's a fun person, she's just kind of crappy at being mom/grandma. She spends a lot more time with my brother and his family since they all live in the same place.
Is that still there? I honestly can't remember ever seeing it. If it's still there I'll get his picture with it again
It's there! Right where you go in for Impressions de France. You definitely need to recreate it!
