I think we should all go in on a Beadazzler and a ton of stones, and do the design in your sig with rhinestones on shirts.

Scary thing is, I'm 99% serious.

Well, we were thinking about having the first evening be a mixer where we could put together things to decorate our doors . . .. the beadazzler would fit right in!!!!!!

 

[bumbershoot]

Exxxxxxcellent.....my plan is fitting together, bwa ha ha.

OK now I'm just being odd.


Would be interesting to see the shirts after a couple martoonis, er, martinis, though...

Dude. Seriously?


I never really thought of those things before watching The Rock's (also deserves a ) The Game Plan something like 4 days in a row. Now I'm brainwashed.

 

[bumbershoot]

I wouldn't have thought about it, but I saw the BIG version in your disigns post, and that's what it looked like to me!

 

[stacielee]

Of course, that would mean we wouldn't end up with Martini shirts! Not sure if that's a good or bad thing! LOL

What if, instead of martini, we make it a margarita shirt! We should do a different one for each trip!!

Hi ladies. I've been gone most of the day. I took my kids over to say goodbye to our best friends who are moving to CA. Been crying most the afternoon and evening now, and my eyes are burning and tired. I only have 2 really close IRL girlfriends, and this one is my absolute closest -- more like a sister. It was so hard saying goodbye to her kids. They're like family to me and are my kids' best friends. I'm glad my kids seem to be taking it better than me, but I'm just an emotional wreck. My kids keep sayin, "Don't worry mom, we'll see them every time we go to Disneyland!" I know they're right, but it seems so far away. Maybe I can talk my dh into letting me come to the October DL mini meet so I can visit my friend then.

I'm supposed to be driving to CO with the kids tomorrow to spend a week at my mom's. Not sure if I will follow through or put it off another day. An eight hour drive with 3 kids just isn't sounding like something I want to do right now.

I think I'm gonna go put a cool wash cloth on my face and crawl in bed and avoid packing for a few more hours. . . .

Hi Callie! I'm so sorry you are so sad! I haven't ever had anyone I was real close friends with move away so I can't say I know how you feel... although I do understand not wanting to drive for 8 hours! I don't like thinking about the 5-hour drive to CA that we're doing at the end of August to take Christine back to school; and I still don't know if we're going to DL then!! I'm still waiting for her roommate's mom to get home from vacation; I am thinking she might not be able to stay for an extra day

One thing to motivate you to drive to CO is the cooler weather... it is cooler there, isn't it? My brother lives near Denver and I know it's been pretty hot and dry there. Have fun, when you do get there. Guess we're not playing Mario Kart anytime soon

I don't know. It might be kind of cool. It just looks like a lot of work to a non-creative type like me.

Maybe I can just pay one of you to make mine.

I like that idea. I like margaritas.

I think it would be fun to definitely have more then one shirt, like last time. A cutesy Disney-ish one, and a kind of "wild" one.

Callie~ I'm sorry to hear your best friend is moving away . But hopefully you'll be able to visit her everytime you go to Disneyland.

I actually just came on the board to let everyone know I'M HOT!! There was an earthquake today that centered about 10 miles south of my work & the buildings A/C broke along with the elevators . Plus there are no windows that open in the building so everyone is roasting to death. Actually a lot of people left so it's pretty quite around here.

I think I may go home early since I'm starting to feel a little light headed.

Hi Katie! I heard about that. I'm glad no one was hurt. That is one part of living in CA that I do not miss! I can still remember the Northridge one. We lived in Glendale then.

Anyway, GO HOME!!!! It is not good for you to be cooped up in there with no air. Tell them Dr. Beth said so.

I'm going to leave in a half hour.

There is a girl at my work who is from New Jersey and has only been in California for about a year, so this was her first earthquake. The earthquake was a little longer than usual, but it felt worse since we are on an upper floor of the building. She was holding on to her desk for dear life and she said she's telling her husband they are moving back to New Jersey before the next on hits .

I shouldn't laugh but.............

Poor thing. Did you tell her about after shocks?

I second that.

And I have a doctorate, so you can tell them that Dr Molly also told you that you must go home and cool off.



Beth, it sounds like a lot of work to me, too, LOL.

You should definitely go home!
We felt the earthquake, too! I was so freaked because I was at work with 12 little ones (3-4 years old) so I'm like 'THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING NOW!". So we told them we were playing a game and we had to get under the table. This little boy, Elijah, was the last one eating lunch and I had told him he had to finish his chicken nuggets before I opened his chocolate pudding. Well he had just finished and then the earthquake came and I told him to get under the table and he's like "MY PUDDING" I said "It's be there when you get back!"

How cute. I could just picture that!!

 

[grizbuzz]

Glad to hear our Southern California ladies made it through the earthquake OK. Stay cool and well!

... I was at work with 12 little ones (3-4 years old) so I'm like 'THIS CANNOT BE HAPPENING NOW!".

At work with 12 little 3-4 olds?? Do you watch 3 and 5 year olds? I'm thinking I just found my babysitter for our September DL trip!

Thanks for all the hugs and understanding, ladies. I'm leaving right now for the long drive to Colorado. Kids are sayin "Mom, get off the Dis! We've gotta hit the road!"

Have a great week ladies. We'll see what kind of internet connection I'll get in Durango, and I'll try to check in from there.

I hope you have a nice time in CO! Be safe on the drive there and we'll talk to you soon.

OK - how do I post a picture? I can post the link, but cannot for the life of me figure out how to post a picture
