Great news! Thx to Lucy for sharing.................. Today is my middle DDs bday............she'll be 22 and will graduate college in May. We're all going to converge upon her for dinner this evening in Philadelphia. Can someone please tell me where the beautiful weather from last weekend went?

Happy belated B'day to Tracy!!!

Ah, Lissa, me, Lucy has been nominated by JoAnn#1 to do the FE's - the irony is Lucy has NEVER done FE's herself....and has no clue what she should be doing but is happy to do anything she can to help everyone have even more fun! SO, Lissa, Lucy is in charge of FE's - whatever that means

Hi! We just booked this cruise yesterday to celebrate my 50th birthday! Can we join in on the fun?! It'll be just DH and myself on this, our second cruise, and we are SOOOO excited. Anything I should know? What's this about FE? They didn't have this when we went back in 2001.

WELCOME ABOARD!!!!!!

 

[Dizzyworld]

My husband and I would like to get in on the second brunch if possible!!!

I'll start making a second group brunch list. Anyone else want to join us?

 

[jlawall]

Were you surprised????

Yes, Lucy, we're you surprised? She and Jenny are on their way home.....

 

[lwilliam]

Were you surprised????

TOTALLY!
We had a blast this weekend - the 'younger' girls kept me up till
3:00-3:30 Saturday morning (I am an 'early to bed' person) - laughed and laughed and laughed...can't tell you all how much we needed this.

We also discussed the cruise and fish extenders....more later about this.
jfis1020 on her way home to Indiana - I'm watching her flight on the computer....I know JoAnn #1 is watching the Academy awards.

How was everyone else's weekend? Can't possibly compare to mine!

We would like to do the brunch if possible.

 

[Ramule]

Could you please change daughters age to 13, her birthday is in June. , mistake on Dads part.

 

[jlawall]

Is this the longest winter ever or what??? Bring on March already!

 

[lwilliam]

you said MARCH, woman?
I really don't like that month either....mostly because I'm not going anywhere (here we go again, it is ALL ABOUT LUCY )

June, not that is MY MONTH....school over, REALISTIC vacation planning (only a month away), going outside without a coat....now THAT'S my month (oh, there will be something to complain about that month too from Lucy, like sneezing, sniffling, just remind me of this past winter and the cold, ok? )

I thought i wasn't 'subbing' this week, but got called for a job tomorrow (my 'brainless' job - sitting in the hallway protecting the school from outsiders and CHATTING all day long to the students)....my favorite job!

Forgive me, I'm old, I forgot to welcome to the new DISers.....so glad you joined our thread

And February is the shortest month but it sure seems like the longest.

[MrsG]

Wow our list is growing. How wonderful!

 

[tinkerbell_29]

I'm ready to bypass March and April and head straight to may. It is usually warmed up by then and the best thing is we get out the first of May. I literally though I might do harm to my students today. They were throwing mashed potatoes at the walls. I kept my cool though and did not yell or harm anybody. of course if I get this new job that school goes unitl July but at least it would be a change.

Ok, it took us just 2 weeks to get this one! We're starting to speed up!

I don't know guys, I think we're slowing down.........

 

[jfis1020]

I don't know guys, I think we're slowing down.........

Which means we are busy, which means the cruise will happen faster??

Everyone watch ESPN tomorrow night......Mark and I are in row ONE behind the Univ. of Cincinnati bench!!!! They are playing West Virginia. You can try to see how many times I go to the concession stands!! That's what we do when we watch our friends who normally sit there. Once I called and asked, "Hey! Did you really need that pretzel you just bought!" Great seats and a fun night out with the DH!!!!
