DISer chapter of NKOTB anonymous, part deux... we don't want an intervention!!!

[cruiserkaren]

Hey ladies. We got Alex registered for Kindergarten yesterday! She got to meet her teacher and check out her classroom. She starts school on Tuesday. Not only am I not ready for her to be in school, on a selfish note I'm not ready to get up early and get her ready and out the door on time! She has an appointment for a haircut today. We are clothes shopping tomorrow. School supplies and shoes are checked off the list already.

Danny was cracking me up with his few tweets yesterday. Even my dh was laughing.

I hope the benefit turns out well Heather. Best of luck for a fantastic turnout.

Heather - You're a good friend to do that benefit for Sadie's family, especially with everything you have going on!! I'm sure it'll be great!! I hope things work out for Sadie and she can be close to her mom!!

Karen - I know how you feel, Becca actually starts 1st grade this year. At least kindergarten was only half day! Now she'll be gone ALL DAY!!! I agree on the selfish part because I share your feelings, it's a pain to get everyone out the door early. I don't like getting up early!! And this year, it'll be worse, Noah starts Middle School and he's in the band and has to be there 3 days a week at 7:30! (school for him starts at 8:15 so they practice before school!) I'm used to getting up at 7, now I'll have to get up even earlier!!!! He plays the baritone tuba so his instrument is too big for him to walk to school with or even ride a bike. So, I'll get to run him to school and then go back home and then take Becca to school to be there at 8:30. Grrrr!

Today we're going to a play that my niece is in at the library. Then I'm off to buy a present for my friend who is getting married, Victoria Secret gift card. Her shower is tomorrow.

Oh and my little baby is growing up, Becca will be 6 tomorrow!! I think I need a hug for that one, why do they have to grow up!?!?!?!

 

[cruiserkaren]

for you Shelby!

Our kindergarten is full day! The thought of her being gone from 7:45am until 3pm freaks me out! She is super excited though so I keep my worries to myself (and dh!). She already has big plans for a cheer camp, skating parties, and of course eating in the cafeteria!

She wants to ride the bus but I told her I couldn't handle that just yet. Let's take it a step at a time!

Just popping in super quickly to say hi to everyone! Had a crazy 4 hour meeting with my latest auditee to review things. I have lots to get squared away before we leave for Disney. I'll be back in the office by mid next week, but still so much to tie up before then. Heather, I hope your benefit goes well. Let me/us know if there's any way to contribute even if we can't be present.

Hope everyone is well and has a fantastic weekend!

Hey ladies...super busy, got a job on Monday that started on Tuesday!!! YIKES! And it was VBS this week. We've been leaving at 645am, getting home @ 915pm. Will say more this weekend, gotta get to work!! LOL

 

[hmdavid]

Just checking in to say hi! Hope all is well with everyone! Last day of summer vacation for us. The girlies start their new school tomorrow. Emma and Kaitlyn are in different classes for the first time, so we will see how it goes! They will be in second grade this year and Aubrey is starting kindergarten!!! They grow up too fast!

Congrats on the job, Erin! How is it going?

I didn't end up having my garage sale last weekend, I found more boxes in the storage room and put it off until this weekend so that I would have time to go through them, also started my Ebay stuff and OMG I have a lot! Now it looks like Brian might be coming home for R&R earlier than expected and the house is a disaster with garage sale and Ebay stuff everywhere. Oh well, I am sure the way the house looks is the least of his concerns! The biggest concern is that our Disney trip is in serious trouble if he comes home early. Hope he does not get home until at least next Wednesday!!! If it is earlier than that, our trip will not work out as planned. Wish me luck!

Good luck to all of the mommies with kiddos starting school soon! We can all cry together as we watch our babies go do big kid things!

 

[kte28]

Wow! I thought for sure with being gone I'd have missed at least a page of posts. It's been quiet!

Disney was good! It was ridiculously hot and humid, but that's to be expected at this time of year. Not too much rain, and the crowds weren't too bad. We only went o MK and Epcot, but we didn't have to wait in line for anything...nor did we need to get fastpasses. It seemed like that parks were filling up midday, but we got there at opening both mornings so we never had a problem. We also ate at Il Mulino in the swan, and it was fantastic! We're very particular about Italian food in our family, and it was great.

Hope everyone had a great weekend! Can't believe I'm already back at work. Feels like I was never gone! Hey, at least it's Wednesday already, right?

Hey ladies!

Ever since the boys stopped touring, this thread has been quiet!! Did anyone see Donnie's tweets about his birthday parties? I was considering going to Mohegan but then it sold out. Oh well. Maybe he'll party in AC. I expect to see you there, Shelby...from across the room of course.

Not much has been happening here. Work mostly and counting down the days til vacation! 32 days to go! 25 til Universal for "work."

Today is a day with no Jordan Knight guy. So boring...

 

[angey77]

Not much going on around here. I had a dr. appointment yesterday and Jason and I took two cars, since I had to hang around for the standard gestational diabetes test. I took advantage and blared The Block in my car ... Jonas can now somewhat hear and I want him to know good music. hehe.
Counting down the days to Seattle, 15 days. I'm ready for some LSU football! We're also going Twilight sight-seeing, thanks to my niece. Just for one day around the Portland area though. Then from Seattle, we have two weekends in a row of traveling to Louisiana LSU games and baby showers (for me ... woo hoo!)!

 

[jenny105]

You may have a future New Kid in the womb! If New Kids rotated members like Menudo....

If there are any Edward or Jacob sitings (especially jacob) be sure to let us know!

 

[cruiserkaren]

Hope your trip works out, Heather.

Alex is at her second day of school. She loved it yesterday. She thought it was hilarious that a boy in her class fell asleep on his desk. I'm sure each day will get easier but for now it's extremely weird for her to be out of my care for most of the day!

Angey, have fun on your trip.

 

[lovemickeya]

Checking in- I have lurked a few times not much is happening here. I am a Twitter-aholic as some of you know.. HA HA

So of those non twitter girls. I have just been super busy with Football. My DH coaches a little leauge football team (7-8year olds). Our youngest is 8 but has autism so he isnt able to play- we have tried but he just cant deal with all the people etc. Our oldest played for 2 years but now he has moved up to a different league since he is 10. So DH loves it so much he has been coaching since before we were married, so I knew what I was getting into. HAHA. We love it. This year has just be a little more difficult than most since not all of our sponsors came back- bad economy. We are have our fundraiser- Casino Night on Saturday then MY part should start to slow down. YEAH right.

My kiddos start school on Monday- THANK GOODNESS for a schedule. REMEMBER Autism + Schedule = Happiness!

My classroom kiddos (preschool) dont start until Sept 10. So I still have a bit before I officially am BACK TO WORK!

Hey Angey -

I found Nicole from Days Twitter page today. She only follows 9 people and one of them is Joey Mac! I got a kick out of that. Wonder if she's a friend or fan?

Hi girls. I haven't been around because lately things have sucked around here. The dishwasher broke about 2 weeks ago and was supposedly recalled 2 years ago. I reported it to the company and was told I'd have to wait up to 10 business days to hear from them. That would have been Thursday. So, I've been washing dishes by hand for 2 weeks only to have them not even respond. Guess I'll be calling them on Monday to see if they're planning to come out and check out my dishwasher. Then yesterday, was the worst day of all....I left the house, drove to my mom's only to discover I had a flat tire!!!! Next on the agenda, something is up with our hot water!! We're only getting water that's luke warm. Then, late last night I found out that my aunt that had breast cancer a year ago went to the ER with pain and they found a tumor and she will require a hysterectomy!!! Can it get any worse!?!??!! I sure as heck hope not!!

Hope you're all doing well.

 

[angey77]

Wow, Shelby. When it rains, it pours, huh?
My thoughts and prayers go out to your aunt.

 

[hmdavid]

Shelby, so sorry so much is going wrong. Saying a prayer for your aunt and hoping that things start looking up for you! I can relate, I feel like when it rains it pours. So much has gone wrong lately!

Finally having my garage sale. It is slow today but was busy yesterday. Hopefully it picks up today!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

 

[N&B'smom]

Broken dishwasher and no hot water make it very difficult for me to wash the dishes by hand!!! $#%$#!!!!! I'll be boiling the water. Grrrrrr. Like I need it to be anymore of a pain.

My aunt has several cysts on her ovaries and a fibroid tumor. She is definitely getting a hysterectomy though, she wants everything out so she will have no more worries!! I don't blame her one bit!!!

I really hope things start to look up. We do only have 34 more days until Disney. If only I could get my diet going I'd be great. I am HUGE right now.
