Metro New Orleans DISers - check in!!! - 03/2009

[TigerKat]

I leave you guys alone for a while and you're throwing around booze, candy.... what's next!

You never know what's next with this bunch......

Wait ................did you guys pack up and move because of me??? LOL Well I just posted in the old thread so let me post again. I just wanted to thank you all for the warm welcome. It feel very comftable talking to people from the same area/state. I hope everyone have a wonderful Thursday

I'm so glad you found us.

Yup Monday would be bugs and burgers with the kids.

Of course some will just meet us for burgers minus kids lol.

I'm going to tag along with Sheryl as Alexis's auntie, that's my excuse for going on the field trip to see the bugs.......

Nasty weather out there, everyone going out, please drive safely.

 

[ilovejack02]

Whew.. that was some nasty weather!!!

When the first line of storms hit, one set of thunder was so loud and so long that we actually got up to check if maybe the house next door blew up or something. It was CRAZY loud and long. Chad even freaked a bit and he is so calm and laid back about everything.

Just got power back , went out about 1 am. I woke up having a mini stress freakout . I just knew I was gonna lose the fridge and the deep freeze again. Between Gustav and no elec . after the snow for three days we just got the freezer full again.

Well it looks like the day after Easter is shaping up nicely!

Off to get Jack ready for school and myself ready for Dr. 's appt.

Stay safe on the nasty roads today!

Good Morning Gang.

Whew what a nasty morning. Kodi did not want to do her business outside because of the wetness. So I put a pad on our patio for her! What a spoiled pet!

I am chaperoning DD and her 4th grade class at the Insecterium on the 8th! In light of that and my fear of bugs I will have to pass on the visit but I plan to meet for lunch. I will be cringing the entire time I am with them.

 

[Ms Marigny]

Hey y'all!

I found the new place! And I'll take all of that fantasy candy and booze, thank you very much!

I'm worried about this weather because DH has to fly out to Dallas this morning- I would hope that they would cancel or delay the flight if there were any possible danger...

I'm not sure about the meet on Easter Monday...I know my niece is supposed to be coming over sometime during spring break, and that may be on Monday, but we'll see. It also depends of course on how I'm feeling too. I'll have to get back to y'all on that.

MMitchell29!

Terry- I was thinking maybe call Wildlife & Fisheries and see what they have to say?

THANK YOU Lorie!

Lori - I too am a LOST fan. That show will be the death of me. It is so mind boggling and confusing...thus the Lost title.

 

[Ms Marigny]

THANK YOU Lorie!

You're welcome! I hope they can catch the little bugger. I may have to call them myself if I see those giant raccoons again.

I just got off the phone with their agents and was referred to a few wild life catchers in my area. So hopefully someone can come out and catch IT!

 

[Where'sPiglet?]

Wait...
I am so lost. I can't even really plan much until I finish taking care of some higher priority things. I thought I was almost caught up with the paperwork when yet MORE got emailed to me, and the middle of the week is the worst time for that because I have my 3 12-hour days in a row.

I am having a hard time following even this thread and wfd is a lost cause for me at this point. It moves about 3x as fast as this one!

Anyways...this portocall is for lunch on Easter Monday? Would it make more sense to meet at 5 for dinner after Audubon closes for the day? I am going to the aquarium that day.
Off to get more tylonel for my tension headache from the way this week is going...

You'll have to let me know how it is, I'm not a bug person either so I may just go with you to lunch...

That is 2 MORE things we have in common! We will not be there Monday, not JUST b/c of the bugs and the fact my kids just went, though!! Bethany, if it is the AOA, we MAY make it a field trip day! We haven't been there in a while. However we do it, even IF we can, it has to be a school day for us! I am cramming in our last school days!! I have them all, probably MORE, but feel we cannot have non school days till after testing in May.

Soooo, do you think Ben "disappears" from the other island??? How is that gonna work? Hot guy Sayid shot him!! Yes, I think Sayid is a cutie!

Umm, let us know!

Guess what??? 1 od the 2 things is happening to make that fall WDW trip come true for us!! But it is the #1 reason YET..... free dining for Disney Visa card holders came our today and we got it! I am praying hubby gets a job SOON, otherwise, it won't happen.

My trip for the 4 of us at ASSports for 6 nights with free food(!) is $1706-park hoppers of course! I MAY add on water parks and more before our pay off date comes-and just keep praying! Praying , hoping, praying.....

Hey y'all,

The rain had stopped over here, but it's getting dark again out there.

Count me in as a Lost fan. But Bob has really had enough of being lost. I may have to start watching it alone.

Terry, I hope they will come get that critter!

Lori, I hope the trip works out for you! That's a very good deal for 4!!

 

[Ms Marigny]

Lori- That's great! I know you'll love free dining- there's just something about eating all that food for free! (AND getting dessert with every meal- it feels good to be bad! ) Here's hoping you get the second requirement for the trip and your DH gets a job soon!

Sooo, are you thinking about your ADR's yet? I love that part (even though I stress about it terribly)!

Congrats, hope DH gets good news soon!

I'm already stressing and planning for October! Since we're only going to be at WDW for four days and doing the Deluxe Dining Plan for the first time, I'm cramming all signature restaurants into dinners and TS for lunch.

Thanks and NO, I haven't even looked! I have a feeling, though, that this is going to preoccupy a LOT of my time this summer! I am actually nervous about it-go figure....
We are sooo used to plopping downa nd having lunch wherever, and this time I do not even have to pack much as far as food goes. I still will bring waters and maybe a breakfast food for the kids(not much though). I do think we'll have room in our car for another person.....hmmmm. I wanna bring DN6 so bad!!! But then I'd have to change hotels....

Congrats, hope DH gets good news soon!

I already know our dinners will be Flying Fish, California Grille, JIKO and Citrico's. Lunch on arrival day is a new tradition started last year - Fulton's; one day will be grazing the Food & Wine booths using up all of our snack credits, the other lunches will be two new places for us - Liberty Tree Tavern and Mama Melrose. Breakfast on the day we leave for US/IOA will be Wolfgang Puck Express....then I've got meals planned for the dark side........
