Nobby's Gnomies... heading to WDW in April 2010

[jenjolt]

WOW!!! What a great cake Katie!! No wonder you needed to leave chat and finish them up...wow you did a great job! I bet Patrick will love it!

 

[Lady Lallie]

Hey Gnomies!

Katie, that cake is fabulous!! Really awesome.

Nothing exciting today. We ran a bunch of errands today, planted morning glory seeds and some herbs that we bought at Walmart. Just a mixture of little chores. Now we are going to watch some more Big Love.

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Wow, Katie! That is amazing! I remember the cake from last year too. You are talented!!

I am just back from my massage, pedicure and lunch. Oh how nice it would be to be a lady of leisure!

 

[julezdisney]

Awesome cake Katie!!!

And yes, I think we'll have just enough time to get Nobby to ya'll.

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Oh my gnomies.

I hope you are all having good weekends! I hope that you will indulge me in the following. Generally speaking, I try to be really positive. I really do. And I know that I have a really great life. For one, I have all of you- and I mean that sincerely. And I have more great friends, family, a good job, and my health and much more that isn't springing immediately to mind.

BUT

You knew it was coming...right?

But I am really lonely. And I want a prince charming. And little princesses and princes I can bring to WDW. And that is just not happening. And I have another birthday approaching next month and relatively soon I'll be at an age where little princesses and princes are not a possibility, biologically speaking.

I have (clearly) not been lucky in love. And I have horrible taste in men (perhaps I'd better make a love of Disney a criterion going forward). I'm not sure why I'm writing this other than I just need to write it down and get it out of my system. I know all the advice. "Put yourself out there." "Be patient." "He'll come along when you least expect it." And more. And it's not that I don't believe in the advice. It just hasn't proven true for me ...YET

And I'm feeling frustrated. And lucky that I have a gnomie outlet where I can say all this.

Peace, Love, and Mickey Mouse! And sugar daddies....wherever they may be!

 

[jenjolt]

Well I'm not going to give you all those pieces of advice but I do want to tell you how I wonderful I think you are and that you are an amazing person!! Hugs to you and yes you are more than welcome to vent to us anytime you want!!!!

 

[kschafer]

Lots of these to my dear Christine!!!

I know I can't say anything about your situation to make you feel better right now so I will just remind you that we love you and are here for you for all your ups and downs

 

[Lady Lallie]

Oh, C. Lots of hugs to you.

I have no advice but just know that you can always vent to us and we are here when you need us. Love you, C!

 

[julezdisney]

Love you CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Thanks my gnomies! All better today. Sometimes you just need to get it out of your system, ya know?

Anyone planning anything fun for Father's Day?

Another rainy day here so I guess it is more DIS'ing for me!

 

[Charleston Princess]

Love you, C! I am glad you are feeling better this morning! You can vent anytime!

Katie, the cake turned out adorable! I love it!

So, am I sending Nobby to Julez this week? Is that what we decided?

 

[Lady Lallie]

I've been up for 30 minutes and I've already cried. I am so mad at my Aunt right now.

About a month ago I emailed her asking her for guidance/suggestions in regards to my parents 30th Anniversary on July 28th. The email response I got back was nothing helpful, pretty much telling me I was on my own. She was my Mom's maid of honor so I was hoping she could help throw together something on the smaller side. She literally told me "Good Luck with figuring it out." So I was poking around my parents trying to figure out what they would want and they both said they didn't want a party. In those words. So I figured I would just take them out to a nice dinner when they time came or I would give them a certificate for the two of them. They were also talking about booking a vacation for the winter in celebration so I thought I could book them an excursion or activity wherever they chose to go.

Well this morning on facebook my Aunt messages me and asks me what I am doing. I told her I wasn't doing a party and her response is "wow." Literally that is all she said. Then she goes on to say that she can't believe I haven't planned anything! I'm really upset. So upset that I called my Mom who assured me I wasn't being a bad daughter and if that anyone should plan a party my aunt her maid of honor should have. She also assured me she didn't want a party at all. Then I heard my dad in the background yell "NO PARTY."

I guess it's just the attitude that bothered me.

Ugghhh! That was so tacky of your aunt! What is wrong with people these days??? I am glad that you told your mom, and that she reiterated her wishes. I think sending them to dinner is just fine!

It's just so annoying because I would do anything for my parents!

I know. Just ignore your aunt -- it's very easy for her to sit back and be judgemental when she wouldn't even help in the first place. Your parents don't want a party and that's the bottom line.

That's what Mom said. She also said next time she talks to her she is going to clearly say she does not want a party.

 

[2xcited2sleep]

Boo to your aunt, LL. What is the matter with her? Clearly your parents don't want a party. Your dad isn't leaving any room for doubt. Of COURSE you're a good daughter. A special dinner will be perfect!

 

[julezdisney]

Blech to your aunt, LL. That was crappy.

 

[kschafer]

Blow off your Aunt LL. You are doing what your parents want and that DOES make you a good daughter!

 

[Lady Lallie]

Thanks guys! I'm just going to ignore it and if she does say anything else I'm just going to tell her that I am doing what my parents want!

How is everyone doing today?
