[birkner]

Not me. Don't know anything about it. But I'm glad everything went well for you today!

Since it has been 10 years since I have had a tetnaus shot, I had the new Tdap shot. This new Tdap is a booster for the DTP (Tetanus, Diphtheria, and pertussis shot that I had as a kid as DTP is not longer used in the USA.

Kim! You have been in my heart lately. I'm so glad you were just busy and all is well. Glad to see you posting again!

Thanks Angie! I have to say I think I have stretched myselft a bit thin with this one. It is MUCH better this week and September is Saftey month so we are doing $5 helmets and walk to school day. I think I can handle that. Do you think they purposefully don't tell you about all the "little" things so you will do the job?

Holly, you will love this story. Youngest DD, Samantha just came in and plopped on my bed to say, "Ok, as much as I hate to admit it, you are right."
Music to this mother's ears.

She said, "You were right about Crystal (her high school), you were right about USD (her University), you were right about Oliver (ex boyfriend) and now as much as I hate to admit it, you are right, I am going to go to law school. I want to do this internship for next few months and then I am going to start studying for the LSAT while I work part time. Every job I look at bores me and for what I want to do, I need a law degree. Ok, Mom, you can say, I told you so."

I didn't tell her I told you so but what I did tell her is that I was proud of her for coming to her own conclusions.

Hey DVCer's....

Guess I could pop over to the DVC discussion forum, but I am lazy For those of you that own at resorts other than OKW, did you get a letter recently about extending the ownership for 15 more years? I just got one yesterday, but it only said OKW on it. Wasn't sure if it was a system wide extension of just OKW (which is where all of our points are). Any guesses on what that is going to cost? I would think they should just give it to us out of the kindness of their hearts

We did not get anything Kaylee. We own VB, BCV, and SSR.

Don't the original resort points end in 2042? I will be 82 then, not sure if I want to keep them until I am 97, but who knows?

Oh, how awesome! YAY SAMANTHA! I can just imagine how hard it must have been for you to bite your tongue and not say I told you so! You must be so proud of her.

 

[kimerinc]

She is fine now. We talked and as always, things happen for the good. Our DS who lives in AZ will not have enough $$ for a trip in Sept, and we are the only ones able to help him with that, so by knowing we will be able to get him here also. That will make Dad and I very happy.

Oh you cannot leave him out. He is too sweet and plus, he is AARON'S DAD!

 

[Jhalkias]

They sure sound wonderful from what you MAC folks here always talk about, but I'm nervous to try something new. I'm afraid I won't know how to use anything! But I suppose I'd have my own tech support group here.

At your service, and if you really wanted to run Windoze, you could do it easily.

I was so proud that it really was not hard to bite my tongue as I was so thrilled that she came to a adult decision on her that I wanted to jump up and down!! It is so gratifying to watch your children start down the real road to adulthood after univeristy.

Well, today was the first day of school for Sophia . . .

Loves that American Girl Backpack . . .

. . . Our systems are still down and DH has been working himself to death. I am very woried about his physical and mental health. He has been up all night and he just can't seem to figure out why our systems are not cooperating.

I hope things get better.

Congratulations!

A bit of trivia: Did you know that coat length is a sign of seniority?

Great pics John! Sophia looks so excited about her first day back to school! Very cute! And Alex looks so handsome and professional. You must be very proud of him. I really love the pic of all 4 of you!

No, and I wondered why the coats looked so dog gone short! I thought maybe they got a deal on short coats!
