Having a GRAND time - The Official GF Chat Thread PART 2

WHOOO HOOOO! Verizon spent 3 hours working at my house on the lines! I better be able to get online tonight or else! They said I had called over 30 time about the problem and since no one attempted to help me or blamed it on my computer they are crediting me 3 month of DSL service! The cables in this area need to be upgraded and something in California (why California? ) needed to be sped up.

Spray it on, shake the article of clothing, hang it.

Does it take out really bad wrinkles, nope, but for things that were in good shape before they were packed it should work fine! (loving this smilie today )

Last night I was very good, my parents had taken the kids to see the HSM stage show, so I got all the laundry up to date, laid out all the clothes, toiletries and general stuff for our trip.

This morning our roofing guys turned up (without any warning) to replace the 5 sky windows on the guest floor of the house which I had ordered back in June.

Yup you guessed it, that is where all the trip stuff was laid out!! I had to quickly throw all the stuff into cupboards so it didn't get covered in plaster etc.

36 hours till we fly out and I need to start finding things again

Sorry about the moan.

Kirsty

 

[Tinker*Shell*Bell]

Sorry about the moan.

No need to apologize...we leave in 11 days and I will be on here the day before we leave, freaking out about something. Either the kids will have lost every shoe they own, or the luggage will break a zipper...or my favorite (THIS HAPPENED) my son will help with the laundry but use bleach instead of detergent and ruin every shirt I own...about 12 hours before departure...that was fun!! NOT.
Good luck getting it all together and have a Grand time!

It must be boys the day before we left on a ski trip last year DS hid chocolate easter eggs in the dryer. Yes I put all the clean jeans in the dryer only to return later to find a BIG mess.

Started to put stuff in cases, had to vacum the plaster dust out first.

Thanks

Hope he has a magical day!

OK I have this size and it STAYS in my Sunday-bag-o-stuff! I could not make it without this stuff, I have ti sit for a while between warm up with the band and taking stage so I spray my "sitting wrinkles" and smooth them out while I am in the clothes, LOL! Then I dry my self off with the blow dryer in our dressing room! I also use it to dewrinkle the girls dresses that being strapped in a car seat causes! I refill it from the big bottle! I am glad I found this when I did because I tried to find some more a few months ago and no luck!

Note to self: Don't let DS help with laundry!

Yikes I would have a breakdown if this happened right before a trip!

GF Gals I have a question re:cleaning your room on arrival!!!!DNiece read on the boards somewhere that there are folks who do a thorough cleaning of the room I'm thinking when on vacation I'd like to keep chores to a minimum-just keeping room from getting too scary with all 5 of us sharing close quarters thats about it.. I mean Im a little germaphobic I bring my lysol for a quick spray and I wipe tv remote and door knobs with a good old clorox wipe...wouldnt even think of touching the glasses!!!eeeewwww IF I plan on using the coffee pot it gets a good scrubbing...I dont know after all you are in the parks and on rides with a whole lot of people....Dniece is thinking maybe we should do more...maybe she'll clean my room too... Anyway I think they do a pretty good job keeping the rooms clean...does anyone do more than this???

 

[Cinderumbrella]

I bring a travel sized Clorox wipes with me, but I rarely need to use them. I think I might have wiped down the pack n play at POR with them (just to be safe). We never use the coffee pot or the glasses in the room so I don't think to clean them...

Glad to hear that Cinderumbrella I thought I was missing something...Would hate to think that I should be packing a suitcase full cleaning supplies...I dont even do laundry on vacation...I figure if you run out of something -hey its vacation-just buy more but my clorox wipes do go everywhere I go...
