omg - how many times in one night can you lose a TOOTH??

 

[disneylover5]

HEY, I'm excited about that! I loved Knight Rider!

By the way....hello everybody! Had to do some running around after Tyler left this evening, and am now plunked down at the public library using their wireless internet. My poor laptop hasn't been used in so long, it's probably in shock!

Tyler came home from school with 9 complete sets of teeth (bitemarks) on his forearm yesterday. He did it to himself. The teachers were quite freaked out, as I am. He bit so hard, the toothmarks were quite deep. I mentioned a few episodes to the psychologist last week about him trying to hurt himself in the past, but this is the most severe. His dad has never seen him do anything to himself, so doesn't believe me, but at least now the teachers can back me up if necessary that it's really happening. Poor kid.....I just can't imagine that 1 hour a week of counseling will help him. I hope she'll decide to see him more times a week. The bite marks yesterday just about broke my heart (not to mention scared me).

I probably shouldn't say all this stuff here because I'm afraid you will all think he's a freak, but I just need to vent sometimes.

Oh Holly, I just want to hug Tyler. I have a feeling he will be my best buddy on this trip!!!

if anyone is interested in jeeps in PV - (not aruba) let me know. It's a flat $75 for the day. They meet us at the port and that includes insurance, gas, etc.

Would you consider using the Flint airport? Air Tran has direct flights to MCO and the flight from LAX only has a layover in ATL.

We could possibly use Airtran to MCO, but not back from LAX because the layover on the way back is so long that the shortest time to get home would be 9 hours. I remember looking at that option a few months ago and there was something about it that wouldn't work for us. We'll probably just stick with flying from Lansing because when we get home, after that long flight from LAX, we won't want to have to be in the car for a long time. Just the short 10 minute drive home from our airport is worth any extra cost.

the rainforest pass will be $120 for our cruise


I feel dumb but what is the rainforest pass...details please


I'll try and check back after the apprentice....love that show!!!!!

This gets you into the spa room called the "Rainforest" where there is steam rooms, heated lounge chairs, and showers - it is a nice relaxing place unless you have a couple come in fighting in the room - kinda spoils the mood

sent you a pm on this

I work at a local TV station in sales. I handle the ad agencies in LA (most of them anyway). Well, really, my bosses handle them...I just do all the paperwork!! I've met a handful of celebrities over the years...some very briefly...some I've partied with!

That sounds like a great job! I can't wait to get out of school and get my real job.

 

[JLSE50]

That is what we thought too--Two Mannings in the Super Bowl. But, now we are cheering for the Giants!!

Holly: I sent you an e-mail. I need an address to get Bobby on his way.

John: Bobby's passport asks for
SURNAME
GIVEN NAME
NATIONALITY
DATE OF BIRTH
SEX
PLACE OF BIRTH
DATE OF ISSUE
DATE OF EXPIRATION

I can get a photo in it, but need some info for these categories before laminating it and getting it all off to Holly. Assistance is requested!!!

For the Banana or the Passport?

HUH???
I am SLOW on the uptake. What are you asking?

[disneylover5]

10:45 est.....19 pages to go. I am determined to catch up tonight.

 

[taysmom]

Just a drive by..as they say...


I PAID MY CRUISE!!!!

Now it's truly for sure!

Can't wait to start the "real" planning! Vacation here I come.

 

[disneylover5]

Plus, it's scary thinking about the amount of personal information that gets collected on the web.

Woody

Daniel and I googed his name and all the bowling tournaments he has won comes up!! All when he was a high school student...can you imagine??

 

[JLSE50]

I checked out the yahoo site and found that I can't add people, so I've contacted Cindy (the owner who isn't cruising) and asked her to change me to the owner. As I change I'll advise when we are good to go.





Somewhere in Central America I suspect....I vote Columbia....the jungles....but that is just from my time with him, he spoke in a heavy Spanish accent, and while he dreamed he cried out in Spanish...I should have had the kids translate for me. I'll ask if they recall what he said....

Ahhh... that explains the need we have found for use of sign language. We speak very little Spanish and that is mostly to name our favorite Mexican foods.

Hey, if Bobby wants a preview of Mexico, we can take him with us to Ziehuatenejo in March. We aren't stopping there on the cruise but it is still beautiful. Not so sure he wants to be around 8 couples hanging out on the beach for days without any kids around though!!!!

This sounds fine to me. What does anyone else think? Who else wants Bobby before the cruise? John, what do you prefer? Who should Holly send him to? I will be sending him to Holly as soon as I get this passport filled in.

That right click on the quote button is not working any more for me. Is it working for anyone else?

[taysmom]

what is the rain forest thing?

 

[katypop]

By the way....forgot to mention.....guess where I'm sitting now?

I left work at 3:15 because I just couldn't pretend to be busy any longer. Plus, I was anxious to get home and install my AT&T internet. I got home 5 minutes before the guy came to connect my phone line, then I pulled everything out of the box and I got my internet going!

I still haven't configured the wireless part yet....just had to get a taste of the wonderfulness of being able to be on the internet at home again! After dinner I'll get the wireless going and can be a couch potato again with my laptop.

 

[JLSE50]

I think he should get a pina colada at a swim-up bar. Now THAT would be a picture to see!

Now it worked in opening a new page by right clicking-- --oh well.

I guess the language barrier was a larger problem than I knew. We did not know Bobby was a drinker....

Hi everybody, I have not bee on this site for a while. Frank took very ill again and we had to rush him back to the hospital. I was with him at 1pm in the afternoon when he started bleeding from his nose and mouth. We got him to the emergency room at the Rehab center and then we were going to transfer him back to the same hospital by ambulence. Well, there was no room at the hospital and they told us we had a 36 - 48 hour wait

Well we opted for a different hospital and by the time we got him there it was 1am .....12 hours after he took sick.

No one can tell us where all that blood came from....he needed to get 4 pints transfused into him.

Anyway, needless to say, it has been way too busy here. I just figured out I am 65 pages behind

Lisa, I'm so sorry Sending prayers and hugs. Frank has had such a rough time, and you too

 

[JLSE50]

morning! my throat is even worse today!

RE the Colts....was this inspiried by Dungy? I know what he did for the Bucs as far as being gentleman, when he was there.

Karen - love the pics!! Is that a spa villa?

Re: Coach Dungy--not a clue. We paid no attention to football after the Cardinals moved to Arizona until we moved to Indy in 2005 so we have nothing to compare to.
