Looking For Control Freaks & Worry Warts too........

[disneyohana]

Debbie - That's the bad thing about mammograms. Even when it's most likely nothing you have to go through all this. I am so sorry for you. My mom is getting her biopsy the same day as you now. They better not change it again.

Cammie & Pam - Thanks for the prayers and well wishes. I'm trying to stay positive.

I love the winter weather for a little while when it snows and it is 32 degrees out. Tuesday was like that. I took my nephew and DD out and we made a snowman and shoveled. No freezing wind.

My uncle has the Wii and I thought that it was fun doing the bowling. It kept me up off the couch and you even get a little tired. It seems like a great family gaming system.

Tessa - Glad everything went well w/the parties. Hope all goes well this weekend.

Tammie - Great news about Cancun. I loved Mexico. The water was so beautiful. Loved the pics of the family. Thanks for sharing.

Keahi, Pam2, Stephanie, & Kristin - Hi!

I love hearing from all of you.

Lisa - Prayers and pixie dust for your mom! It's hard not to worry too much, but try not to too much. Hopefully, preparing for the holidays will keep both of you busy and your mind off of things. I think I would love the snow, but I've never shoveled it! It's so pretty!

Debbie - More prayers and pixie dust for you. Get some rest! My spa appt. was fantastic, thanks! It was so relaxing, the best one I've ever had! It was an hour massage, hour facial and hour spa manicure and pedicure. I could handle that every two weeks! The massage person (couldn't spell masoose! ) talked me into trying a yoga class. I hope to find one on Thursday nights at the rec center after the holidays.

Cammie - Mint Bailey's?? Yummy! I've got to look for that! It was 80 degrees by us today. They are talking about a "wintery mix" for Monday. It's just so up and down. OK - your picture pressure got to me! Just kidding!

Taylor had a friend spend the night and they are still up giggling. I am just about done. Megan has to be at the school at 7:30 to catch a bus for a band clinic, I am taking my car in for an oil change, then doing a little bit of shopping. Tomorrow night is my baby fix - sitting for neighbor friends. I can't wait to babysit for my neice! Hopefully, that will curb my appetite that I sometimes feelf or another little one.

.....Ta, da! Here's my first posted pic from our Nov trip! This one's of the 4 of us in Canada in Epcot. I downloaded all of the pics from the SD card to the hard drive, but couldn't upload them to Sam's. There's evidently a limit of storage space. Uggh! I haven't done anything w/them yet, enhanced or crop, but I did get my Photopass pics done!! It took a long time! I have about 400 of them after I added several borders to almost all of them. I will have to take a second look at them before I order my CD. It was so fun to go thru them. We had such a good time, so many good memories.

More pics to come! (until I am asked to stop!)
Good night all!

Debbie - usually just something to watch - think positive thoughts!

Lisa - I am praying for you

Pam2 - Thanks for sharing! Wow! 400 photopass shots? We couldn't even find the photographers Did you get to add some of yours?

Cammie - Mint Baileys? Haven't tried it - not usually a mint lover, except for gum. But, Baileys in egg nog - could be good!

Pam - nice to see you here again!

Hi everyone! I need to get some sleep - I have to get up in 4 1/2 hrs - drive 4 hrs on ice - I need someone to say, "you're getting sleepy....."

 

[Lovin Life]

Tammie - I'm hoping that you are having safe travels.

, except that now it's a Christmas mug instead of a Disney mug! I am loving being the only one up!

This is our entire travel group. My mom has her eyes closed, and lucky didn't in the ones the photographer took w/his camera.

Have a nice day, everyone!...Pam

 

[Camster0307]

Good morning everybody!

Debbie - I'm so sorry you have to be going through all of this. It's reassuring to hear, though, that it's probably nothing. Keep those positive thoughts!

Pam2 - Your pics are adorable! Keep them coming! I haven't even attempted to do my photopass pix yet. I tried to create a xmas card from one of them and was having a hard time - I HATE THE COMPUTER! Anyway, I gave up and having gone back on since. I need to add my borders and special effects before the pix expire on the 31st. Just another thing to add to my to-do list!

Anyway, here are some more pix:

My youngest Lauren and nephew Jack w/his first Mickey ears:

Jack taking a bite out of Mickey:

(I don't know why my pix are looking blurry on this site. They look fine on my computer!) Another reason why I hate this thing!

A few more:

The Aladdin ride:

Mickey's Philharmagic:

Amanda LOVES Minnie!

 

[Lovin Life]

Cammie - Great pictures! I forgot you went w/others besides your girls! How cute! Amanda has TONS of stickers and Disney stickers on her tray! I see your girls also have tons of pins. Very cool. Photopass effects? What effects? I need to look at it again. I only saw borders! They did add Tink, baby Simba and Stitch to some of our pics, but I didn't find how to add effects. Oh great. I will spend another couple of hours at the Photopass site! Oh well! It's fun, and the end result is great.

Tammie - I think I said this already (I am getting very forgetful), but we got 110 Photopass pictures taken and I ended up w/about 400 after adding borders. Some are duplicate shots, and we did several w/all of us, then w/just my family of 4. Now, it looks like I will need to do some special effects (Thanks, Cammie!). I will end up w/1000+! YIKES.

Did I tell you all that I found a Dis pin at WDW?? It's a green Mickey head! I need to take a picture and post it. I can't remember where I got it, but I was so excited to come across it. I put my pins on my Pooh backpack that I take everywhere.

I am still working w/my pictures!, uploading some to Target.com so I can make my photo calendars for the grandparents. I need to order my Christmas cards to pick up this week, too.

So much for an oil change this AM. Hopefully, tomorrow AM! I still need to go to American Girl store after I take Taylor and her friend for donuts. They are finally up. I decided to pop back on while my Target pics are uploading...

 

[Camster0307]

Pam - I didn't look closely at the photopass site, but I know in past years, you could also add autographs to your pix. Sorry, didn't mean to freak you out - that was the "special effects" I was talking about!

Hi Everyone!!
Cammie Love the pix...keep them coming...
Pam2 Great start...you guys look great!!!
I love pix!!!!
Hi Everyone else...
Just a quick fly by since I had breakfast with Santa this morning and Mark's work party tonight....

 

[Debbie6221]

Being the weirdos that we are I can't possibley be the only one who wants to put a Clorox wipe to the characters noses, right?

I thought the same thing after my DD kissed Pluto's nose.

 

[disneyohana]

Debbie - I loved the holiday greeting.

Tammie - Hope the roads weren't too icy. I hate when there is snow on the streets still and you can't see the ice. People don't realize how careful they have to be sometimes.

Cammie - Love the pics. I also love how you guys buy the hats and sometimes wear the same colors. So much fun.

Pam2 - Great pics, too. The one at Canada looks like such a great family photo to put up on your wall.

I am really thankful to have you guys as friends. Besides the kind words, pics from your trips makes me feel better somehow. Must be that Disney Magic.

Hiya all,

I don't know, I have a day off and come back to find over a page of catch-up to do!!!

Debbie - loads more pixie dust, the docs sound reassuring - wish we had some of them over here!!

Lisa - loads of pixie dust to your mum - and to you too, sometimes we do more worrying than them and it gets us in a state!!

Stepmum is here -most of us had a great day yesterday - DD whose day it was had a grump on all day!!!! tired from the school disco night, but felt like she was grumpy or tired for the whole time. I don't punish often - but felt the behaviour yesterday warranted a lack of Nintendo time this week!! So now of course I am "mean and horrid and only did it to make her miserable for the REST OF HER LIFE" - she IS a bit of a drama queen at the moment (can you tell??) She is all of 7 this week!!!!!! I am not looking forward to the teenage years at this rate!

Pam2 happy birthday for Wednesday, if I don't get back before then.
Cammie - I love crafts!!! I find them soooooooo relaxing!


Got to go feed the family,
Bye for now
Tessa

Being the weirdos that we are I can't possibley be the only one who wants to put a Clorox wipe to the characters noses, right?

Debbie - It's so funny you mention this! My sister-in-law was FREAKING out that Jack kept eating the character's noses - she tried to keep him away, but it was the first thing he always went for. I was telling her to just chill out - she was being an overprotective new mommy; but now when I think about: I wonder HOW MANY other babies have had their mouths on those noses! EWWWW! And, don't you know, by Tues. this past week, the baby was sick with a bronchial infection - on nebulizer treatments.

Anyway, hope everyone is having a good weekend. We're expecting ANOTHER storm tonite - a pretty mix of snow, sleet and rain again. Not a fun way to start a Monday! In the meantime, here's more photos:

Lauren dancing with Pooh

My girls & I on are last day at MK:

Cinderella's Castle at night (I know Debbie already posted a photo, but I just thought it was magnificent; thought I'd post another one! )

 

[Camster0307]

I'm on a roll, ladies. So excited I figured out how to rotate and resize my pix! So here's more to help us keep daydreaming about our favorite place:

MGM:

 

[Debbie6221]

LOVE the pix!!!!!
Here's one of mine that yours reminded me of! It's from June 2007 Birthday trip.....

 

[Debbie6221]

We don't look so good because we are squinting so bad though....
I love your Osborne Lights shots!!! Really great Christmas card pictures!!!!



Hi Everyone else,
Still trying to get stuff done. Again thank you for all your support! I really appreciate it!

Did I post these two pix yet?

 

[Lovin Life]

I am really thankful to have you guys as friends. Besides the kind words, pics from your trips makes me feel better somehow. Must be that Disney Magic.

Lisa - DITTO! I am so glad to "know" all of you! You are a great group of friends!

Pam2 happy birthday for Wednesday, if I don't get back before then.

Hiya Tessa! Thanks!! We celebrated today at my mom's. I am really in the gaming mood this year. I got a Nintendo DS from DH and DDs, so I can play along w/them! I love that.

We're expecting ANOTHER storm tonite - a pretty mix of snow, sleet and rain again.

Cammie - I have to say lucky duck! I wish for some for just a couple of days here. I wish that you could send some. I love your pictures! The castle in icicles is just beautiful!

Debbie - Your pics are great, too! Keep sending them our way!

I am sad to see the weekend come to a close! I think it's going to be one of those nights that I stay up late because I don't want it to be over and go back to work tomorrow.

I hope that everyone had a wonderful weekend!

Here's one of my pics!
