Somehow I am not amazed at you not watching American Idol. Not quite your cup of tea I don't think. Too many emo boys for you.:lmao:
Yeah, not my thing.:laughing:
Ditto that :thumbsup2



Thanks Nikki....ours is next Sunday :goodvibes

:laughing:not surprised that you don't watch. I normally don't either but I was sucked in this season for some reason :confused3
What is it, 7 or 8 years now? You're getting OLD!!
I'm so SLEEEPY!

Is that your puppy?
Morning :upsidedow

Didn't mean to just disappear yesterday but things got busy and the day was then gone! Geesh!

What's up girlies and Mr. Mustard?

It's raining her AGAIN :mad: We are supposed to get a new sidewalk put in tomorrow and if it's raining, that isn't happening! I have waited 8 years to get this cracked and messed up sidewalk out of here! Just my luck! Everyone pray for :sunny: tomorrow, k? :flower3:
And where the heck is Uncle John?

I am so sick of rain and cold. When is it ever going to get warm and stay that way?
Hi everyone! Can I join your group, too?? :wave2:
Of course you can. We like new people!
Oh and I just read an article this AM in our local paper about Lyme Disease...they had pictures of the different types of ticks (deer, dog, etc) and I definitely had a male deer tick on me.

Evidently the county that I live in (Loudoun County) makes up 50% of all the Lyme Disease cases in all of Virginia.

If a tick is on for more than 30 hours, then that's enough time for the infection to occur.

And I also learned that you can still get Lyme Disease even if you don't develop a ring around the bite. A telltale sign is the ring but not all cases get it.

Best way to prevent is not to have exposed skin. So I'm going to garden from now on in a Haz-Mat suit!
:rotfl2:

Seriously, I will try to be more aware about checking for ticks on me and the girls from now on...

OK, there is my PSA for today...
That's gross and scary. It totally freaks me out. We had cockroaches in our apartment in college. It didn't matter how clean we kept it, they would come in through the vents. I've been totally freaked out by bugs of any sort ever since.
Hi Michele (and everybody!). I'm Ann, and I'm a happily married mom of my husband :rotfl:. No kids yet- but we're probably going to start trying in the next few years. I'm from Ohio (not Toledo as my name suggests), and AM a WDW person. A crazy WDW person. Actually, so crazy, that I'm going to start re-doing our bedroom to look like a Swan hotel room :cloud9:. My DH thinks I'm crazy, but he's just as crazy as me.
I'm Nikki. I'm a not so happily married mom of 3 - 2 boys ages 16 and 11 and a girl who is 9. We like amusement parks (mostly Disney, but we like the scary roller coasters so we're going to Universal in June) and going to concerts. The kids are begging me to take them to see Nickelback in July. But so far, I only have the tickets to take my daughter to the Mayhem festival (Slayer, Marilyn Manson, and 28 other bands) on August 1st. I tend to talk about concerts more than Disney and irritate the crap out of most of the chicks on here. So feel free to ignore me.:lmao:

Hi Ann!! Welcome to the group!! I am a newbie also. My name is Linda - I am 53 and have a wonderful DH and 2 DD (24 and 21) making me one of the "oldies" around here:cool1::cool1: I am a Teacher's Assistant and my one fantasy is to work for the Mouse:):)

So I am leaving for Orlando in 9 days with my four kids. We will stay with friends the first two nights and visit. Then we check into our stupid time share dealie on the 25th afternoon. I haven't done well in planning our plan of attack. We have 2 Disney base tickets each, and one day at Universal (both parks) each. Reservations at Medieval Times on the 28th for dinner. Time share meeting/seminar/sales push at 1:30 on the 28th. Middle of my day! That totally messes us up, but I have to go or risk getting charged more money. Never again. Anyway, I've been talking with Carla, a.k.a. Disney Planning Diva, and trying to come up with a plan. Any tips and tricks you guys can offer to help us save time and money? I know we are doing MK one day. The other park is up to the kids to decide- Epcot or MGM. Both have things they want to see. But they are going to have to agree or I will decide. Carla mentioned maybe doing one of those parks and making the evening a DTD evening for dinner and putt putt and shopping. Anyway, I'm getting down to the wire and wanted to solicit ideas from the pros!

Thanks!! :cool1:
Pam

Have a GREAT time!! Carla has some good ideas for you:banana:

I really wish today was Friday. As of tomorrow it will be one week until I'm in Kissimmee! :woohoo:

I will be there one week from today!!!!!! CAN'T WAIT!

8 more hours of work then im off for 5 days!!!!!

YAY for you!!! What are you going to do with your downtime?

:dancer:

Beyond cute!!! She is BEAUTIFUL!!!

Hi everyone!!

I don't know where the days are going but I am losing the race against time. I seem to pop in every couple of days and hope you will still welcome me.:):)

We are in the middle of trying to refinance the house for a lower rate. Keep you fingers crossed this will all work out soon..............at least before the rate starts to climb again......ugh all the paperwork they want.

Work has been crazy - getting to be that time of year when the kids get really antsy.....I come home exhausted:rolleyes1

Went to Jenny Craig and lost another 2 lbs.:dance3::dance3: Total of 3.5 in 2 weeks. I know it will be slow coming - it took over 30 years to put over 50 lbs on.......keep good thoughts for me:):)

Kelli - how is your mom? Has she made it to you yet?

Tomorrow is a walk-a-thon at school.....at least the sun will be shining...

I feel for all of you in drought states. Wish I could send some of this excess rain to you.....we have TOO MUCH!!!!

Off to watch Grey's

Have a Magical Disney Day

For some reason, I didn't know you had four kids. Wow, that sounds like a lotta work!:lmao: I've always wanted to go to Medieval Times to see what it was like. I don't have any ideas, but want to wish you the best of luck!
Sure! Hi :wave2: I'm Betsy (33 :eek:) and I'm married and have a DD3 and a dog who is like a child to me also! I live in Pittsburgh, PA!
You crack me up with your scared face! You're not old, chickie! You should put the scared face next to where you live!!!!
yeah, totally jealous here!



a swat room eh? :rotfl:



oh man, I hadn't heard from her in a couple days so I just texted her:

me: "How's Disney??!"

her: "Disaster!!!!!!"

then her again: "Next time I come to disney it will be by myself"

She went with my aunt(her mom) and her fiance and his son. And her DH and her almost 7 year old. I bet her DH is the one that made it so disastrous...

:sad2: It really saddens me to hear that she had such a crappy trip AGAIN.

I told her I was sorry to hear it and now I just got another text
"Well my mom is just as bad as {DH}. If he isn't being an @** she is being a b****"

That totally sucks.

Her DH is the reason why I was so scared when they first were planning on coming with us to WDW last year. I LOVE my cousin but her DH is such a party pooper!
Aww, that sucks that she's not having a good time! I hate going to Disney and having a sucky time. Why do some people have to ruin it for everybody? People can be so selfish. It makes me MAD!!!!!

What a cutie! She's just so precious.
Marshay, she is a doll.

Hi Nikki!
Hey girl!:goodvibes
 
Marshay, she is a doll.

Thanks! I think she's cutie, too. She just really starting doing her "social smile" and it's just so adorable. She is a bit timid like she is still testing it out and then she breaks out into this gummy grin!!

Morning girlie

I will do the sunshine dance for you :yay:

yw!

It's going alright so far. Pretty quiet. I'm already ready to go home though. LOL

There's a "bachelor party" at my house this afternoon/evening which consists of a crawfish boil and beer. The groom doesn't want to go out. (his wife to be, my cousin, wouldn't allow him to go to a str*p club and I don't know what's up with him not wanting to do anything more exciting than eat crawfish) He insisted on having this party at OUR house. He didn't ask, he insisted. And my DH is not even the best man.

So when I get home there will be a least a dozen guys at my house (I think 25 were invited but not all will show up---at least they better not!)

I am going to eat some crawfish and enjoy myself despite the fact that it's a "guys" thing. DH said go for it--it will show the groom exactly why he should have done a REAL bachelor party
I want to eat crawfish, and besides, I have nowhere to go. My BFF is in DisneyWorld!!

Oh man..I can not believe he insisted it was at your house

be curious to see how it was later:goodvibes

Hi everyone! Can I join your group, too?? :wave2:


Of course

I am happily married and have a 5 yr old son. I am one of those Disney World people, too that chele spoke of:laughing:

I am the nosiest of everyone here and like to ask a lot of questions. I Love pics!!!


Oh yes we love pictures on this thread. I think we are nosy bunch by breed.:lmao:

I 2nd that..I think I may be the nosiest of them all :lmao:

I really wish today was Friday. As of tomorrow it will be one week until I'm in Kissimmee! :woohoo:

U go girl :woohoo:

oh man. You're right. I'll be here though! :goodvibes

I can't wait til next week...my BFF will be back from WDW! I can't wait to her about her trip. I hope she's having a better one than the one she took the year before last with her DH, her son, and in-laws. The in-laws made her and DH miserable. They didn't want to do much of anything. But her DH is kind of a stick in the mud about Disney too. I'm hoping he was better about it this year!


Oh man...Hope she had a better trip this time around. Be sure to let us know:3dglasses
 
yeah, totally jealous here!

Oh man

I am so sorry to hear that

I think u and her need to do a girls only trip :woohoo:

Haha, the Swan is wonderful. My absolute favorite!!!! Though a Swat hotel would be funny....and noisy! :rotfl2: I'm from Columbus, born and raised. We're one of the crazies that wears OSU gear every day of the Dis trip to see how many O-H I-O's we can get. Last trip we were in the 20's on a 4 day trip! :laughing:


that is too funny :rotfl:

Well, so far I have redone my bathroom (attached to the bedroom) in Swan/Dolphin colors. I'm not sure how to put pictures here, but I put them on my site- http://anniessimplelife.blogspot.com/2009/05/my-bathroom-re-do-1-day-and-under-100.html

It's really a night and day difference in there now!! :banana:

I just checked it out

Love that color. So pretty. You did a great job:thumbsup2

He was being very nice. I just couldn't hate him.:lmao:

Sorry, I was in the shower.

She got me a lighter that was shaped like a coffin. It has a scary skull on it. I love it so much. Bryan says it is refillable, but I haven't figured out how to do that yet.

I haven't got to watch Grey's yet because I recorded it but needed to get to bed since I had to be up so early...BOO! I'm going to try to not read anything that will give it away!

I was lazy and didn't go back and quote :upsidedow

Marshay - Elie is adorable :cutie:That is the cutest little outfit! It goes perfect with those chubby little cheeks!

Tat - I'm proud to be a Pittsburgher :rolleyes:

Hope you all are starting off to a good day! Sorry if I missed anything...I'm being a scatter brain this morning!
