Hey! July 30th, 2005 cruise to Mexico DISfriends!

[littleowensmommy]

Hi Guys, All is well here in San Diego. I need some help though. Tickets for Jimmy Buffet on 21 Oct at the MGM Grand in Vegas go on sale next Monday 21 August. I'll be in Disney then staying at the BWV. I don't have my laptop with me. Where can I get computer/internet access there? Thanks.
I'll check in later this evening.

Kathy

Guest Services, Kathy? They printed our airline tickets and we weren't using Magical Express.....ask, I'm sure they could accomodate.

Just sitting here at work, bored out of my mind. Alex got her car back this morning, she was very excited, only 5 days. Briana is at school right not, taking her Regents exams. I am praying for her.

Jenny - Yeah, the kids are probably going to kill us. Nice going, Lynn, I am totally impressed. You may wind up knowing more about football than me when the season is over.

Ok Lucy - I'm not going to the Med if you're not going. Now how do you like that...

Debi

 

[lwilliam]

cool-where do we want to go?

 

[jlawall]

So YOu Think You Can Dance final is over............Benji won so I'm so psyched........except I can't get tix for the tour.......... I'm bummed................but at least........I'm going on the Med cruise next summer..........who's in???

 

[jlawall]

Well, Bri, how did it go???

How's school, Jenny?

How's being home, Alex?

Getting ready for Back to School, Lucy?

How's your break Lynn?

How's your trip, Kathy??

JoAnn is starting to talk to herself, and then I'm afraid she will soon ANSWER herself (you know, a sign of a crazy woman).

I really don't have alot to say because things at work have been a little depressing - my boss' mother died in a fatal car crash, in Pittsburgh. Been trying to replace her in meetings, take phone calls from everyone, get on my workhorse and get things done, because we don't know when exactly she will be returning to work. School starts Aug. 28 (meeting day), classes start Aug. 29 (and she is NOT ready for class)....she did say to me today that our faculty meeting will probably be cancelled the first day (I told her, Merry Christmas to me - I hate faculty meetings).
I know this comes a shock to ALL of you, but I must get to work, talk to you tonight.

 

[jlawall]

Thank you Lucy, I was beginning to babble.......................

 

[lwilliam]

Remember, I was the only witness at the BWV to seeing you walk into the window after leaving Debi's room - I DO worry about you girl. And talking back to yourself is just NOT GOOD. But, then look at your father

There is SO MUCH laundry piling up - i don't know what happened this week, oh, yea, it was that book i just couldn't put down...thank goodness I am finished with it.

Today is my mom's 86 birthday...we went to a local sandwich shop - just the two of us...Bob is once again working at the Kutztown Fair for our music stand, making blooming onions. We also took her out on Saturday, Bob and me, to Red Lobster. Tyler and I bought her a birdhouse so she can watch something outside her window during the winter. Monday is her day at the surgeon and we find out if she will be having a 1) minor surgery; 2) a longer and more complicated one. (stomach anerysms...not good for a 86 yr. old to go thru, but not good NOT to do something...so complicated).

OH, brother, it is 6:45 and the child is calling for food - ah, I kindof forgot to feed him supper, since I already ate. This kid is getting SO BORED, he needs school.

really it's really overrated!!!

Can't wait for the weekend. It's been a rough week. Mark is working until after 7:30 or 8 every night. My kids at home have been horrible. I had a long talk with them last night. When Mark came home, Mallory was with him alone and told him that I SAID that we needed to work together and solve these issues. But, if we can't she thinks we need to call Dr. Phil!!!!! I cannot imagine where that came from. I usually don't even watch it because it's on when I am at work, or just getting home!

Off to the city tomorrow! I'll check in then.......

TGIF tomorrow!!

 

[jlawall]

Lcuy!!! (Note the spelling) I thought I could count on you to NOT reveal my little misstep with the window!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How funny was that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You're right, it's my dad's fault!

Sorry, Jenny, one week down and what? 41 to go?? Mallory is so funny, tell her we said "Hi!" You do a great job with those kids of yours, hang in there!

Where's Deb, Kath, Lynn and Daddy???

Well, I'm going to go read my book now.....................best wishes to your mom, Luce!

 

[lwilliam]

what sup with THAT?!

Look, my friends, SOME days I DO my job, and this happened to be ONE of them...very, very, very busy time for Lucy...and with boss not around, it IS crazy. I hope this DOESN'T continue
Working everyday could make me CRAZY

Hopefully in about 4 weeks, I'll be back to:

No plans for the weekend, but that doesn't mean there will be nothing to do.
Bob works tonight, so I will stay home and do the darn

LOOK people, if you are NOT talking to me because of the football thingy, get over it. I'm NOT a sports person! (I think Jenny will agree )

NOW, start talking about Disney, and I'm right there with 'ya!

All of a sudden, no Briana or Alex?

I'm gonna be on this thread ALL night, so someone better reply....
JAONNE?

 

[jlawall]

Hey Lucie, don't panic, I'm here!! I can't keep coming on and writing to myself! Stop working so hard, BTW!

Back to the beach, I'll be back and forth for the next couple weeks and then I report to work w/o kids on the 29th. School starts on the 5th.......

Next week we have to move Tracy back to school, she starts on the 28th.

I'm sure Jenny will stop in and give us her TGIF report!

Deb, how did Miss Bri do, did you find out yet?

 

[lwilliam]

let's go on strike till someone talks to us!

 

[jlawall]

I hear ya, Lucee.........................

 

[jfis1020]

Lucy has been in bed for about 3 hours!

I'm here and what a week! I cannot begin to tell you what it's been like. Mallory has totally gone off the deep end. I have resorted to totally gut her room when we get home Sunday. She will sit in a boring bare room until she gets it together. I told her that next I would take all the "pretty" clothing out and she can just wear the "necessary" things and plain clothes. I will even get her some plain white t shirts to wear with pants or skorts. She has been so mean and nasty, it's embarrassing!

John has gotten stung AGAIN for a total of 4 times while mowing. He now won't even walk in the yard! He goes into a severe panic attack (I mean and real full blown one!). I didn find one nest and poured gasoline in it, but here has to be more. My lawn mower is not working (yes the new one) so I push mowed part of the yard. Mark has worked 12 hours a day and will need to in order to complete all of his current work.

Next week is Parent Nights. I have mine on Tuesday, but Marshall's is, obviously, the same time, so Mark will have to represent him. John's is Wednesday and Mallory's is Thursday. Come Friday, I am off to Chicago. Don't think for one minute I won't be looking forward to that trip (and Wicked too!!).

So..................how's everyone else now that I have dumped all my negativity!

I am very anxious to hear the results of Briana's tests.... Please let us know! How is Allie doing now that she is back?

I wonder how Kathy is doing? I bet she is a he*^ of a lot better off than I am right now!

Is Lynn back to work yet?? Your football knowledge was very impressive!

JoAnieses enjoy your time and I hope we aren't both crying the blues in a few weeks!

Lucy......it's about time you did SOMETHING!

Debi.....it's the court thing with the store soon? What's the latest on the store and that?

 

[lwilliam]

So glad I didn't need to go on strike

You are so RIGHT - I was in bed early....this working hard is for the dogs!
As I've told you before, I am a total procrastinator (sp?) and now I pay...I MAY even go into work on Sunday, plus i don't know what is up with my mom so I better get my work done.

Bob reminded me that last year at this time, we were booked for the cruise that leaves today, double Castaway Cay...with about 100 DISers...
but, do I regret it? NOPE, I would never have given up this summer, even
for The Magic - and that is saying alot. This past summer was TOO much fun with you guys

Jenny - I'm sorry, but if I'd be John, i would NEVER want to cut the grass AGAIN...I knew that boy was 'sweet'.....and your little angel...what is she doing NOW? Oh, dear, this is just the beginning with Mallory....she is going to be a FUN teenager....you will keep us in stitches for years, although I don't believe YOU will be laughing

I would also love to hear from the BOLUSI's....any BOLUSI

 

[littleowensmommy]

Quick Hello, I'm online to print boarding passes for tomorrow. We head to Disney in the morning. All is well. Coronado is paradise. I'll be out of touch until we return home on 1 September. Miss you all!

Kathy

 

[jlawall]

[lwilliam]
