[Momto2PrncChrmgs]

Evening Snowbirds! I got Disney Mail today!! I ordered the DVC DVD-just 'cause! I know it's not in the budget right now, but it never hurts to get the info AND it puts another hit on our acct so maybe that'll help me get a pin code in the future!?! Hey, a girl can dream can't she!!

Good morning Snowbirds.... cold morning here in Central NY...brrrrr.. trying to get some housework done before I have to go show houses... updated the PTR with purchases made yesterday while shopping... another busy day in paradise...

our girl scout cookies came a week ago.... we have already had a box of shortbread, two boxes of tagalongs, and a box of the coconut ones... forget the name....still a few tagalongs and thin mints left.... our little neighbor girl is the only girl scout in the neighborhood so she does pretty well when she is out and about selling.... plus there are table in all the malls and outside the grocery stores... we are one cookie overload here....not that its a bad thing....lol....

I'm so tempted to order that video....We received Disneymail the other day. It has a picture of Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto and they're holding a sign that says "We miss you too." DH wanted to throw it away - I wouldn't let him. I told him they miss us - we need to go back!! It was a promo for the DVC, but I don't care - I'm keeping that picture!

Good morning Snowbirds!

We are truly snowy here in the mid-Atlantic region today! The boys took a ruler outside and report 5-7 inches of snow. I know that's not a big deal to many of you more northern folks, but here in Virginia it's a lot! So of course school was cancelled. The boys just headed out to the best sledding hill in the neighborhood...which is, of course, at their school! It's too snowy to go to school, uness it is for a good reason like sledding.

Mmmm, Girl Scout cookies! Ours were delivered a week ago. We've polished off the Thin Mints and are now working on the Samoas. Still have a box of Tagalongs, but I ordered those for DH and he's on a diet now, so we'll have to hold off on those. I know I'm getting old because when I sold them they were $2 per box, and now they're $3.50! On the other hand, I must not be too old, if I can still remember how much they used to cost!

Hope you're all having a Happy Disney Day!

We have now received 2 of the DVC packets. We got one at a presentation on the cruise. Then my DH made a call to DVC. Fedex delivered one the other day!

GS cookies - If you have to wait - stick them in the freezer! They'll keep a long time. I remember the $2 boxes too. Plus now you get less cookies per box!

Well It might be March 2nd but we are snowed in pretty much here in Pa.
And it is still snowing! My DD friend left for a cruise last Friday, what a nice week to pick for a crusie. I was just HD looking at patio sets on Sat.

ABC Bakers or something like that...we don't get our cookies until APRIL 22.

I think that is who is here too. This was our first year not selling cookies, or being a GS. Our troop feel apart. But we sell them from the end of Jan. tot he end of Feb. It was nice not to have them all at my house. It was alwasy so easy to go get a box and then one mor ebox,and then oew money like crazy for them all.

We use Little Brownie Bakers in MN. We had our initial sales, and now we do extra sales and cookie booths. We've polished off our first box of Thin Mints and I'm restraining myself from the Samoas tonight. We went to Culvers and I had a big burger and DH and I shared a sundae, so I'm stuffed.

SO can someone help me? Pamouselover, I got your PM and I can't get it to show up?? Exactly what kind of [ am I supposed to put at the end? I'll keep trying!

This one ] at the end of the sig part. If that doe snot work let me know.

Good Evening snowbirds! I am typing to you from pittsburgh this evening. went home for the weekend to see my mother and to try and find a wedding dress and guess what I found one and even ordered it on only my second visit! WOo HOO

Congrats! How is the snow up that way?

AARRGGHHH! How am I going to keep up with all of these, and try to write my own too?? I may have to stop sleeping!

Kim... quiet is not all its knocked up to be... DD is at school, DS is in Vermont skiing for the weekend and DH is fishing.... he is supposed to be home tonight so that we can go out to dinner... but right now it is so boring here at home...

My mom tells me the same thing! When things get too nutty, I try to remind myself that someday I will miss all the noise and craziness. My daughter is trying to climb on the coffee table as I type this ...

I'm so tempted to order that video....We received Disneymail the other day. It has a picture of Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto and they're holding a sign that says "We miss you too." DH wanted to throw it away - I wouldn't let him. I told him they miss us - we need to go back!! It was a promo for the DVC, but I don't care - I'm keeping that picture!

We got that in the mail too and I almost cried!!!! My kids ask every day when we're going again and I'm so desperate to go back. Getting that adorable pic in the mail doesn't make it any easier. I wish I could convince dh to get in on the DVC stuff...just a little too pricey for us right now.

Good Morning Snowbirds! Its a very chilly day here in ohio, but not a lot of snow where i am at. thank goodness!

Good morning Snowbirds!

I thought the Birdies would be buzzing (peeping?) this morning over "The Bachelor". I don't watch it myself, so I can't comment.

I watched it.... WOW... my initial reaction was what a jerk he is... but then again it is important to follow your heart.... just to bad it was at some one elses expense.....

 

[trixiequilts]

I just thought it was totally classless to break up with Melissa on TV.

Granted, they sign their lives away, so ABC pretty much dictates how things are done, I'm sure.

It was very interesting, though!!!



Where's Shelly? She'll be on fire about it!

 

[Lil'Mermaid75]

My local radio station announced what happened on the Bachelor this morning (I don't watch it). What a discussion that turned out to be! Of course, I immediately thought of all of you! I just think of that son of his.....

 

[Lil'Mermaid75]

Pluto_fan - just noticed your signature line....I'm crying with you - no new ticker here either!

 

[BellaSoleil]

Hey girls! I knew there would be some Bachelor chatter today. I feel very sorry for Mel. The Bachelor is really a crappy way to meet someone. The girls have every outside source taken from them for 6 weeks and all the can concentrate on is that guy. They pretty much have no choice but to fall in love. It's not natural at all! That being said, Jason could have at least been kind enough to break up with her before the After the Rose Ceremony!!!!

I also knew there would be some Bachelor chatter! I didn't really watch the show but I did watch the final ceremony and was a bit shocked!! I felt really bad for Mel too!!!

Well hope you are all having a great work, been busy busy here!
