(sssssssssssssssssssss gone wild!S when I want it, nada, when I dont it jut ssssssshowss up!)

you have a possssssesssssssssssssed ssssssssssssss!!!!!!

Jasper LOVES our cat! We had the cat first. But Jasper and Oliver like to wrestle, and sometime Jasper licks Oliver on the head. It's SO cute! Of course, there are times when one of them wants to play (usually Jasper) and the other isn't interested (usually Oliver).

Jasper is weighing in at 25 lbs, and we are thinking she needs to lose a little bit, but she is a 13" beagle (not sure if Eli is or not), and Jasper is even 'petite' for a 13" beagle. She is a LITTLE girl! Also, the vet said it could be muscle from doing agility, but she could lose a pound or two. Her waist is a little thicker than it should be, and you have to work to feel a rib. It has improved since we started agility though, so I'm not too worried about it. I don't know how she is overweight though! Half the time she doesn't eat her meals!

they sound like sherman and eli. sherman's older so sometimes he doesn't want to play. but eli has learned how to push his buttons - he'll just find a blanket and get under it and roll around and make wierd noises. sherman usually looks at him for awhile with his "whatever" look on his face, but then he always gives in and starts playing with him. so cute!

eli is 13" and sherman is 15", which doesn't make any sense to me because they're from the same family. sherman's sister is eli's mommy. anyway, being a 13" beagle, eli is almost double the weight he should be! not good! i'm trying to fix that though!

Good Morning Everyone!

Thank you all for your well wishes for my 20th Wedding Anniversary!!! It's hard to believe that 20 years and 2 1/2 hours ago Jim & I exchanged our wedding vows in the Judges chambers. We eloped. A little background: we have been together since high school, he was in 11th grade & me in 12th, yes I am the older woman! Hee, hee, hee! We had dated for 3 years & lived together another 3, that means we've been together for 26 years all together I have to honestly say it feels like yesterday, and I am very thankful that we are as happy, if not happier than we were back then. We chose not to have children, so it's us and our cat Samantha(domestic black & white) who is 17 and our dog Veda(german shepherd/golden retriever mix) who is 12.

We never went to Disney as children so we actually discovered it as adults first and fell in love. When my sister got married I was her matron of honor. I was talking to one of her friends from high school was a bride's maid and she and her boyfriend were big Disney fans. She just gushed about their love of Walt Disney World. So a few years later we decided to visit the World and the rest is history. I can't wait for December to get here so we can officially celebrate our 20th. Right now all our excess funds are going into the trip because we want to experience some new things with this visit, like the Segway tour at EPCOT and Cirque du Soleil and a few others that are yet to be determined.

Okay enough about me.....

MJMouse:I have a coworker who is allergic to cats but owns 5! He gets a product from the pet store that they rub on their cats to prevent allergy attacks. Not sure if this will help you but just a suggestion.

My2boys: Thanks for the welcome!

Disneyfreak: Those pics are fantastic and the bride has such a beautiful dress. Can you be my photographer when Jim & I renew our wedding vows on our 25th anniversary on the beach? I can only hope I have that figure in 5 years!

I hope everyone has a great day! BB fans, I can't wait to see who wins the Veto competition tonight!

Dentist hint - Go to your happy place - block everything out... do the "lamaze" breath in.... count breath out slowly... (I have serious dental issues - no matter the small painless procedure, dentists still have to stop as the realize tears are rolling down my face - "are you in pain? what is wrong?" *sigh) prayers and here!!

Kat one day at a time!! How are things with your new friend? I really need to check out open skate at our ice rink!

Dance to get free dining you have to already have a reservation, as that promo is over... you may be able to use one of the codes for a room only ressie at mousesavers.com - if you still have your ressie w/ free dining then you (everyone in the room) has to have a one day base ticket ($70 I think for the one day ticket) <selfishly glad you are coming>

Submitted resume.... I feel sick!

Good luck!!!

My "friend date" went great, thanks for remembering!! She was very cool. Unfortunately she did fall once but other than that did pretty well... it isn't fair because I am pretty good on skates so I think I made her feel bad. We are planning a biking excursion sometime in the next week or two. I also had another friend from a while back write me out of the blue so hopefully we can re-establish that friendship.

Decided to name her Mia:

She's beautiful, I love her dearly, but she makes me . I ended up stuffy nosed with allergy eyes and hives yesterday evening. Then my throat started to feel funny (like it was going to close up). I quickly took a Benadryl and it got better, but there is no way I can keep her. So she's going back to the house she came from... my coworkers mom might take her (I hope). If anyone is in the northeastern maryland or southeastern pa area, she's the bestest little cat. Sweet, gets along with dogs (as you can see), is healthy as a horse according to the vet, and will do anything just to be with people!

Your pictures are wonderful! You have such talent.

Awww what a cutie. I wish I could take her but I am a little far away, plus my Trinity might get irritated. Also, I could only take a declawed cat since mine is already declawed and I would be afraid of the consequences.

Lynda, great pics!! What a pretty dress and I love the last shot.

I am off to the gym. Hope everyone is having a great and skinny day!! (oh, and I hit my 181 goal for my new bling... I may change it even if it is only for a few days )

UPDATES: Bruce is getting off IV for his blood staph infection. Ryan the meds are working and he is doing much, much better. They are able to take out chest tube today and he will be discharged back to the hotel room. Praise be to GOD!!!

Hooray! That is wonderful news!!! Thanks for the update!

Right now all our excess funds are going into the trip because we want to experience some new things with this visit, like the Segway tour at EPCOT and Cirque du Soleil and a few others that are yet to be determined.

...

I hope everyone has a great day! BB fans, I can't wait to see who wins the Veto competition tonight!

I just gotta say how great it is that you still capitalize EPCOT! I was a huge fan of EPCOT Center growing up because I was (and still am) a big science geek. So that was actually my favorite park when I was a kid. But now that they've tried to make it thrill ride central, well, it's just not the same. (Tangent over...)

I'd be ok with either person on BB going home tonight. But truth be told, I'm starting to warm up to Jen a little bit. I don't despise her anymore. Now it is a more of an annoyance than anything else.

 

[DisneyObsession]

Good Afternoon Fellow Peeps!

Don't know the last time I posted...seems like forever ago! With VBS all last week, then a wedding on Sat that I did a reception after the ceremony for and moving DD, SIL & DGS on Sunday, I think I haven't been here since last Fri to post my numbers! I tried to catch up as much as possible.


MJ Mouse...I hear ya on the cat allergies! I can't even be near them or in someone's house for a long period of time or I stuff up, can't breathe and itch like crazy! It's not fun!!! Sorry you have to give her back.

Lynda...Your pictures are gorgeous, as expected! I can't wait to check out smugmug and see more!

Eeyore...You're a racer!!! WOOHOO!!! I am very impressed! I can't run for anything!!!

I know there was more I wanted to say, but can't remember.

Aside from completely being anal because "that's how Disney does it" (ie. EPCOT, Disney-MGM Studios, etc.), EPCOT is my favorite park. I prefer World Showcase over Future World, but still enjoy both. I can't wait to see the refurbished Spaceship Earth (hoping it's completed by the time I arrive in December)!

And I know what you mean about Jen, she actually bugged me in the beginning and I really wanted her out. But then last week they were talking with her mother & friend and they were saying she was playing dumb, so it will be interesting to see how long she keeps that going. I guess at this point I'm hoping Kail will go home, finally.

 

[MJMouse]

MJ that would be me too!! I've had awful allergy to kitty - fdil roomie kitty didnt bother me a bit... hmmmm... but you reminded me - dont tempt fate and allergie

MJ Mouse...I hear ya on the cat allergies! I can't even be near them or in someone's house for a long period of time or I stuff up, can't breathe and itch like crazy! It's not fun!!! Sorry you have to give her back.]

Never knew I had kitty allergies... or at least didn't know they were this bad! Sure, I've been sniffly around them or sneezed when they got in my face, but I always just attributed that to dust or pollen from them being outside. This was a full blown attack... uggh... Maybe some cats are more "alergenic" than others?

Such a cute little kitty!! I wish I was closer, I would take her in a second.

Awww what a cutie. I wish I could take her but I am a little far away, plus my Trinity might get irritated. Also, I could only take a declawed cat since mine is already declawed and I would be afraid of the consequences.

I wish I could get her to one of you! I'd even pay to have her declawed.

how sweet!!! too bad you can't keep her. i hope she finds a good home! i would take her but, number one, i'm in georgia and, number two, i have two beagles who would totally freak out over a cat!

speaking of my babies, i weighed eli (our canine peep!) last friday when i weighed myself and he weighs 40 pounds.... he's WAY too small of a dog to weigh that much. we've been taking him on daily walks so i'm hoping the weight will start to come off. i'll post his weight, too, on fridays!

Jasper LOVES our cat! We had the cat first. But Jasper and Oliver like to wrestle, and sometime Jasper licks Oliver on the head. It's SO cute! Of course, there are times when one of them wants to play (usually Jasper) and the other isn't interested (usually Oliver).

LOL -- Mags is really taking the cat quite in stride. Helps that she has been around the farm cats since she was a baby. One good pop in the nose and she knows her place! Really wanted to be with the cat all night long (kept waking me...).

I love beagle bellies. We had one when I was growing up and a stray that sort of adopted us a few years ago. They do LOVE to eat!!

well wishes for my 20th Wedding Anniversary!!!
MJMouse:I have a coworker who is allergic to cats but owns 5! He gets a product from the pet store that they rub on their cats to prevent allergy attacks. Not sure if this will help you but just a suggestion.

Happy anniversary and if I didn't say that already!! I love this place!

That's an interesting thought... I'll have to do some research this afternoon.



On a happier note... I've been walking lots and lots with Mags and we are both getting fitter and fitter! Wish the weight was coming off though... I've been kind of stagnating the last week or so (weight wise that is...).

BB - interezting item on Jen and Dick - Jen and Danielle were having a dizcuzzion in which Danielle waz calling Jen out for how Jen treated Danielle - accuzing her of being jealouz and about Nick etc... doing a very good job of putting Jen in her place imho... and then...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfPx0LqYhaE

ED comez up behind Jen and dumpz hiz tea on her... WHAT?? I am zick of hiz bullying anticz... hiz foul mouth in relationzhip to the women in the houze (which I believe iz part of hiz game ztrategy)

Juzt imagine what would happen if Jen retaliatez in anyway! unacceptable behavior!

TK - your ztory iz zimilar to ourz!! We ztarted dating when I waz a Zenior, he waz a jr!! We went to different collegez and married after graduating!!

 

[HockeyKat]

Took me a minute to get used to that "z" !!

Man another [bleep]ing day. I just finished lunch (yes, it is 5PM). Taking that small meals every so often thing to new lows! I did manage to hit the gym at lunch, 30 min on the "arc" trainer and much weights.

Good news, the hot tub part finally came so hopefully we will have it back in business by tomorrow!

 

[Disneyfreak92]

they sound like sherman and eli. sherman's older so sometimes he doesn't want to play. but eli has learned how to push his buttons - he'll just find a blanket and get under it and roll around and make wierd noises. sherman usually looks at him for awhile with his "whatever" look on his face, but then he always gives in and starts playing with him. so cute!

eli is 13" and sherman is 15", which doesn't make any sense to me because they're from the same family. sherman's sister is eli's mommy. anyway, being a 13" beagle, eli is almost double the weight he should be! not good! i'm trying to fix that though!

We have the kitchen gated off for Jasper, and sometimes Oliver will sit just out of Jasper's reach and taunt her. Then sometimes he walks up and puts his head up to the gate so Jasper can kiss it.

Well, maybe Sherman had a tiny sister? I don't know. That is weird. Anywho, good luck thinning down Eli. I think it's adorable that you'll be posting his weight too. I'll be following his progress.

Disneyfreak: Those pics are fantastic and the bride has such a beautiful dress. Can you be my photographer when Jim & I renew our wedding vows on our 25th anniversary on the beach? I can only hope I have that figure in 5 years!

Thanks, and did you say beach? Sure, I'll do it!

 

[AnnNan]

WEll I have fallen off the food wagon hard! Night eattting is at an all time high. At Walamrt they had some diet stuff for night eatting I would hate to have to consier this but its getting very bad. I am very disappointed in myself.

I stopped writing food and water down and promised myself that Tuesday is just as good a day as any to start again.

I have not been exercising either. I have not done anything psositve in the way of taking some conrtol back with my eatting or exercise.

You're exactly right - Tuesday is as good a day as any to start again! Sounds like you did great pulling yourself back up!

I guess at this point I'm hoping Kail will go home, finally.

but what i don't understand about the "playing dumb" thing is that she's the same in the diary room. you'd think if that was an act she'd reveal it in there since none of the hamsters see that. she just bothers me.

what?????? that was completely uncalled for. i know i'd probably be EXTREMELY annoyed with her, too, but there's just no excuse for doing that to anyone. grow up!!! no wonder his daughter hates him. and i certainly see where he got his nickname!

i read on my favorite BB site (hamsterwatch.com) that jen is now looking up the rules on harassment from all this crap she's getting from dick and also thinking about getting a restraining order against him once they're out of the house. don't know how true all that is.

i went to the gym tonight and did a weight class for the first time in 2 weeks and i'm SOOOOOOOOOOOO TIRED!!!!! i will be so flippin sore tomorrow....get ready for the whining!

DH got creative last night and decided to marinate some strip steaks in rosemary, olive oil and crushed garlic.......i'm off to have some yummy dinner!!! with a salad, of course!

 

[dance2874]

Another slow day around here! Where is everyone???

OK, first of all that dinner sounds SOOOOO good....note to self: Pull steaks out of freezer to marinate for tomorrow.

BB/Jen- I seriously doubt she has a case for harrassment. I am sure they signed all sorts of waivers before entering the house too. (so even if she did have a case, she may be prevented form actually doing anything)

 

[Wonders10]

Thank you!

Just wanted to remember to say how gorgeous those pics were! Could we see any of the front?

Sending dust your way.


WOW!!! Those pics are great!! Wish you lived near me.

That's awesome!

Thank you all for your well wishes for my 20th Wedding Anniversary!!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!!



Thanks to everyone for your pixie dust...my dental appointment went great! I had to sit in the waiting room for 40 minutes which wasn't helping my anxiety but once things got going I was in and out in no time! And didn't feel a thing. And having my iPod with me was a huge blessing...so much nicer not hearing that drilling noise. It feels soooo weird now though and I'm still nervous to chew on that side (I haven't in 2 years!) My bite is totally thrown off. But I'm sure eventually it will get back to normal. Now I just have to find the time to go for a cleaning and I'll be all set!

And I had my final tonight...that was a doozy. Definitely not sure how I did. The good news is I had a 97 going into so I could afford to lose a few points.

I am having the biggest desire to go to Epcot this weekend for a quickie trip. I have been thinking about it and then a girl at school started talking about a weekend trip she is taking up there in 2 weeks. I helped her plan things out a little and gave her some tips...she hasn't been since she was 4! But that only made my want to back myself. Except I have no one to go with me. It'd be a hassle with my mom because we'd need to board Phoebe and it would be more work than its worth. I could ask A. to go but a weekend trip for our 2nd date seems a little much Even though it would definitely be a topper to our 8 hour first date.

Hope everyone had a great day!

I had a root canal earlier this year and it took me close to a month to actually chew on that side because i ha dbeen avoiding it forever. Still feels weird to me actually.

And if I lived closer I would totally go to EPCOT with you. It is one of the parks I dont usually get to take my time to enjoy and check things out in. You should go! (and if you asked 'the boy' it would be a true Disney test you know, see what he is really made of....most guys are not EPCOT fans from what I have seen. Think it is too much shopping everywhere!)

Well the thing is he told me he loved EPCOT and it was his favorite park before our first date (and before I went on my "I love WDW" tirade)...and when I casually mentioned that it would be fun for us all to go, he agreed (And I mean casual...like "we should all go" said in excitement). Which is why I considered asking him. I just don't know how his school stuff is going so I don't want to burden him. He got his only final out of the way tonight. Progress Reports should be about done. He is working on his 2nd research. Sorry, I'm listing his to-do list. I have to head down there myself tomorrow to work on somethings so I'll see what kind of vibe I'm getting. I did just check rooms for the heck of it to see if anything is available and there are rooms so that won't be an issue. I have an AP. He could get a 1 day FL Res pass.

But there I go, getting ahead of myself. He did say he likes spontaneity though. Even though planning it a week in advance isn't so spontaneous.

 

[harleygirl]

[pigget74]

Today was my official last day of summer. Teachers head back to work in the morning and the kids start Tuesday. Did last minute school shopping for the kids since the painter was here and then we took them to get some more clothes tonight. I have to be at work by 7:45 in the morning to start meetings . Will check in the morning. Have a good night everyone.

 

[Wonders10]

Just watched BB...won't give anything away yet in case you all haven't seen it but I will say this:

If Amber cries one more time, I'm going to scream. Seriously. What is the deal with her? Does she have a glandular problem? A hormonal imbalance? Who cries that much? AHHHHHHH!

That is all
