Michelle I did aunty duty for 90+ on my December cruise in '06. It was great, one of the young men, about 10, would show up each morning to have breakfast and each morning, would just say hi, sit, eat and "see ya tomorrow" when he was done, too cute.

Howdy folks! Back at home, ready to catch up! Nice to see I have lots to read!

If they had Wi-Fi at the dance studio, I would carry my laptop with me there . . . instead I got to listen to . . . yes, more issues with bussing today.

Amy got some interesting news today at work . . . they may send her out to their call center in the Philippines.

If she goes, it is two 18 day rotations with 18 days at home in between. If she goes on the first one, she will leave as early as the first week of February. If she goes on the second one, she gets home from the second rotation April 23!

Do ya think that's cutting it a bit close?

She has not traveled for awhile, I don't think since Alex was young. I will have to learn the single parent thing all over again! I told her I will take the first week she is gone for vacation so that I can get the routine going.

She finds out for sure later this week.

What a great opportunity for Amy! I hope she gets to do it. How exciting for her!

You'll be busy! I think you meant you're arriving on the 8th? Does your son like roller coasters? If so, he will love Expedition Everest at AK
Kathe

You're right, we arrive the 8th. That is one ride we will be doing. We were at WDW just before it opened.

I'd be careful about letting a 10 year old do the planning... my parents let me pick the place to stay one time in Plattsburgh NY and it ended up being a fleabag motel with a pool and miniature golf...

No worries here. We have several friends that work for Disney (Imagineering) and they have all stayed at Port Orleans. Good place for kids. Son only gets to pick the rides/parks.

Oh, almost forgot.

Zac Efron was in the crowd last night and you should have seen the swarm of girls swarming at his feet.

BUT, I'm not talking about the little girls - it was all the Mom's!

 

[disneylover5]

Gretchen got her full mouth of braces today and she is in pain.

This is on the web site tonight

so - girls night out.

We went to Olive Garden....both the girls choice. There was a 20 minute wait - it is season.

We were seated in the back and our waiter was horrible. Brought us bread and no plates....the girls both had chicken with broccoli and I was going to only get salad but felt compelled to order an appetizer as well to not be chaep....calamari, which the girls devoured.

Well - he was crappy, but every table around was filled with really old people (nothing against old people, I will be there one day)....who were complaining....loudly, one group of 5 were in a booth - then moved to a circular table then decided it was too loud and wanted to move back but there was another party there. They started to get upset. Another party was complaining because the lemon in their iced tea had seeds which got into the drinks.....it was just ---- wow.

I think he kind of lumped us in and just didn't think about us, anyway I had two wines the girls both had a meal, I had salad and an appetizer.
Anyway, he brings the bill, charges me for one wine, and the kids meal and that is it. He said he has never seen kids eat more broccoli than chicken and gave the girls kudos for that.

As he left the bill and went to wait on another table I heard someone complaining to him and asking to speak to a manager. Not that I have all that extra cash or anything but I left him a $25 tip - and our bill was less than that. I hope he doesn't have to tip out and he'll have a better day tomorrow.



ETA -- I should not say old people --- this could be anyone, it was people that there was no pleasing no matter what.

Just so you know.. This is me and mom...

Me...

& mom...

(it too YEARS to find Dopey for her!!!)

& us over some of my favorite desserts at Citricos...

 

[waltsgirl]

Well as of today I am going to the Philippines on Feb.9th and returning on Feb 28th. I will be going back sometime in late March.

Like John said I am both excited and reluctant. It can be a dangerous place but I have to believe that GE will do it's best to keep me safe, although in December someone from our office was there and a tank ran into the hotel they were staying in. It was an attempted Govt. overthrow.... She had to be evacuated to a hotel near the embassy and came home early...

I will be going with another person so there will be two of us that is a good thing.

Let's put it this way, it takes an exsmoker not a nonsmoker to help someone quit. They just understand and relate better. Some of it was positive and some of it just turned me off and I wanted to smoke. I would give it mixed reviews.

Yeah, I can get that! I like the idea that they are starting a mission. Just like the one in Mississippi. I'm in love with her radio network.
