DIS/DISUnplugged/Dreams December Event Info – DISapalooza (continued)

[katscradle]

I do my shopping the week after Christmas...I just now have to pull out everything I bought and figure out what I still need to get. I am going to the Christmas Bazaars in our area this weekend and get ideas...However, I usually don't every have time to make the ideas I get.

We keep christmas simple in this house!
It's also just us, so there are 3 gifts each.
1. from mom and dad or each other
2. from sibling
3. is from santa
and then our stockings and no they are not the huge ones.
This way we don't break the bank, have disappointed children and they get what they really want.
I have started my shopping officially now as I have 1 gift bought.
8 more to go and stockings are done a few days before christmas.

In the construction industry they call 'em job johns. Ewwwww. I will hold it till my back teeth float before I use one of those things!

I go to a massive camping event every August. I have learned the way of porta-johns many years ago. Never thought I would see my mom use one, but we went to a crew race and they didn't have any convenient flushies. The look on her face was truly worth it. And they were fairly decently maintained. And at another race, the porta-johns were in better shape than the flushies.

Popping into say howdy. You all have been busy beavers today. You know, probably by the time we get to DAP we'll all be talked out and no one will have anything to say. You think?

Had a busy day but not with customers. Had to put together 9 Christmas trees. I am bushed. Planned on doing a bunch of stuff tonight but I'm kicking back and watching the live webcam from Disney. Last night they had Holiday Wishes, Illuminations, and Fantasmic. Of course, I missed it. Hoping for at least a partial repeat tonight.

I go shopping for me on Black Friday Sales... I go and see what I can get the best bargain on...

We don't have anything like that up here.
Our boxing day sales suck in comparision to the US.
We tried in 2006 to go to a mall on boxing day when we were in Florida.
After a couple of hours and not finding a parking space we gave up and went back to our hotel.

Hi everyone! I'm so happy I was able to extend my flight one more day, so now Kelly & I will get to go to the Podcast. Since we're there one more night, I'm thinking we'll go to Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party on Sunday night.

Now, we're off to Disneyland to see the Christmas parade and have some holiday fun!!

Yay for the extenision!!

Can you say trauma!!

 

[katscradle]

Congrats on your 1500th post Tracey!

Where is the live webcam?

I can't say the name because they got banned from the dis for using the dis name or some derivitive.

Click on live video and then at the bottom click 1-4 feeds. There are 4 cameras at BLT.

Edit: deleted the address just in case.

Major drama at work today!!

My direct supervisor was given two options: resign or be terminated. He chose to resign and his assitant (who as been there all of 3 days) was made acting AMA.

Now, this did not come as a total surprise as it was apparent he was way over his head in the position. He had no idea what he was doing and had no concept of deadlines. It will be ian interesting few weeks to say the least.

Sorry for the drama Shelly, but maybe in the pecking order this is good for you in the long term?

The Super Walmarts are open on Thanksgiving already, so it make sense to open their non grocery stores too.. I stay away from the Targets & walmarts until 1 hour after they open their sales, as I have been in their lines when a near riot takes place over someone trying to cut in line when the doors open.

We also don't have things like that happen up here either.
If something is going on sale you go and get in line.
Then about 20 minutes before the store opens they send out sales people.
They ask what you are there to buy.
Like when the wiifit came to canada.
I am here for a wiifit.
Each store only gets say 20.
They give you a slip of paper with a # on it.
Then when the store opens you go to the cash.
Give the cashier your slip and she has someone get the item for you.
This way there is not a stampede, or riot.

I am not sure what I would have done!

I was told when I started working for this construction company by one of the foremen "you haven't lived until you have had your morning constitutional in a job johnny when it is five below zero outside." TMI!!! Thank goodness they have indoor plumbing for my office!

Oh, Oh, I had to come and tell you ................

my pink hoodie has arrived! And so has my t-shirt. And my photopass CD.



FYI - T-shirt and hoodie were women's cut, a little bigger than I expected, but not enough to wish I ordered a smaller size.

'k, gotta get ready for hockey........

Another fun mail day for you!!!!

Ghirahdelli Chocolate........YUM!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE Ghirahdelli! I loved going to the factory in San Francisco. Fun!

I guess only FAMOUS people can fly them

That's how he knew about them!

Congrats on your 1500th post Tracey!

Congratulations, Tracey!

Okay Nikki ~ I hope you got that because they think I'll get banned if I leave my post. I'm going to edit it now.

 

[katscradle]

I am happy to share, but just Betty Crocker - my picky daughter doesn't like Ghirahdelli

Not sure where that came from.

What!!!!
Children have no taste.

Your right that a major drama!
Duck down and stay out of the way!
Something may hit the fan yet.

She is one stubborn child. She only likes Betty Crocker brownies. Go figure.
