Holy cow guys! I think I just read 12 pages to catch up!!
hey im not responsible for chuck. i sent him home long ago when he ran out of ones. i think ill have some cinnamon toast when robin goes to work tomorrow.
we have a huge storm rolling in, how about the rest of the WI people??
We're looking pretty safe Janice. It's now 6:20 am and still no storms for SE Wisconsin.
Anyone watch the Brewers-Phillies game tonight?
I was one of those "old time" games. Not the uniforms or anything like that, just the Brewers stinking up the place like they had all through the 90's.
Blew a 6-2 lead in the 8th, giving up 6, and losing 8-6. Pathetic. Good teams shouldn't be blowing 4 run leads. This is the first time they lost 2 in a row since right at the begining of the season.
Sorry, just a little p!ssed from watching them blow it.
You call that a game Jeff??
I'm gonna feel really stupid tomorrow if these photos aren't showing up like I planned!!!
They're showing up just fine. Great pictures!!
This was taken at Cinnamon Bay on St John.....isn't is lovely!!!!
Cinnamon Bay? We know where Mike will be hanging out now don't we?
(too bad this is a Western, but who knows? Maybe it will turn out to be an Eastern. Sorry Cass, I know it's not what you want to hear.)
I just heard on the TV that a town about 40 minutes away had quite a bit of wind damage, trees down, power lines down, quite a few people w/out power.
Glad it's not me.
i'm alittle gun shy w/storms...last summer during a huge storm, my new (2yrs) house, that we built, started on fire. Lightning struck a tree, travelled through the root line, met up w/gas line that came into my house and followed that gas line in. Not a lose, but alot of structural and smoke damage. Storms are not my friend.

So sorry to hear that Janice. We had bad luck twice now with storms in the past. But like you, not a lot of structural damage, just personal items, water heaters, furnaces...stuff easily replaced.
My DH wanted me to let everyone know that the PHX SUNS just won their game
YEAH!!! Great game Carrie (and Scott). I watched the whole game, therefore, no time to DIS last night. Although we live in WI, we are all huge Suns fans. Weird, I know.
Good morning my little schnoogums.
We had a BAD day
Before Kira and I got out of bed this morning, Rob had lost a $200,000 order.
Then we found out that we lost that house, they got a good offer on it this morning.
Rob was gone for the evening for business and I was very upset so I took Kira for a walk, by the time I got home I was in tears. (I'm normally not a crier but I really really LOVED this house! ) Then I grabbed Kira and we went out in the back to let our dogs, Lilo & Stitch out. They started wrestling each other like always and Kira was watching them....
and she LAUGHED!
For the very first time...she laughed!!!! My tears of sorrow turned to tears of joy.
It's amazing what a laugh can do
Oh Cass, what a bummer. (Bummer probably means something totally different in the UK

). Maybe you'll find something much nicer now. How nice that your little sweetheart can bring up your mood without even knowing it. A child's laughter is addicitive (even more than the DIS).
With all you chatting away trying to beat the threads in front, there is no way I will be able to catch up when I get back.
Can someone please PM me if there is anything important I need to know for October.
Thank you.
Heather
That's a deal Heather. I was thinking of making that same request and I'll only miss a day on the DIS. It took me 45 minutes to catch up this morning.
If I forget, have a wonderful cruise. Take lots of pictures and share them with us when you get back.
