Have a fun day at school! That sounds like a good time

I went on one of Thomas's daycare field trips once - I had a lot of fun.

We took pictures... we don't have a video camera. It was SO fun.

To post pics do you have to have a photobucket or shutterfly or one of those types of accounts? I've never looked into that before...

Mac is missing her first field trip because it is while we are gone. Kind of sad about that. I am not telling her about the field trip.

For photo uploads. You have to have a photobucket account. It is free and actually pretty easy. If you want you can sign up for one and then most people on here can walk you through it.

I am off to school for the morning.

Hi there Brenda - when do you go? Looking forward to meeting up on the 17th. Did you get your rezzies for the french restaurant sorted?
It will be a nice break in the middle of the day for us. I have to be up at the butt crack of stupidd as I have an organised tour round Disney that day so Neil is taking Ellis into MK and meeting me later. Its 5 hours long, so we'll then head over to meet you and then back to MK for the fireworks. We're going to be tired cos we have MNSSHP the night before - hmmmm...could have planned that better

Hi Karen!

We leave on the morning of October 15th (only 10 more days!). I'm so excited to meet you guys (as is Plankton) - it should be a good time.

And yes, we did get our reservation at Bistro for that night - 7:30PM which is just right. Thanks for asking.

You have a busy day planned on the 17th - are you taking the Keys to the Kingdom tour? You'll have to tell us all about it while taking a break from all that walking with a drink or two.

Safe travels to you next weekend - looking forward to meeting you in person.

PS. Should we bring a translator from the Australian F&W booth in Epcot?

Its awfully quiet on here today

Are you all busy packing

Sitting on your doorstep waiting for your postie

Ironing on and ruining t shirts

Stuffing tag bags

The possibilites are endless

Yes its the keys to the kingdom tour. Neil and I did the longer 8 hour one years ago, but I'm doing this with a lady off the Dibb - not met her before so I'm meeting lots of new friends that day

If you just start nodding I'll just know to shut up

Thomas will be missing a field trip to...to a dairy farm and pumpkin patch. I'm sure he'll hear about it, but I can just keep reminding him about the trip

I might have to go look at photobucket tonight...hmmm....

Have a good day Carrie!

 

[Karen Mouse]

I should really iron ...I have got to the stage now where I wont let them wear anything thats going on holiday ...most things are packed, but theres a few things still in the ironing pile.

Its gotta be one of the worst jobs in the world ........ after window cleaning that is.

I think I am going to be able to just use 3 suitcases

I only have about 15 items left to go in and I'm sure they can go in without using the extra case - Neil will be pleased....ti lhe finds out that I've left half his clothes behind that is

So I'll have 3 cases, 2 hand luggage and a big rolling cooler.

What do you do Jen?

I no longer work - hubby calls it "lady of leisure"..I call it gardener, cook, housekeeper, decorator etc etc.

I used to work in admin for years then took 3 years out after Ellis was born and got my Classroom Assistant qualifications but jobs in schools are REALLY hard to get here unless you want to travel miles into really not nice areas and translate for the foreign kids who dont speak english

I work in customer service for a direct marketing company - I actually work with international customers

I wish I got to be a "lady of leisure" but that's ok. I get to be pampered on the cruise! Seven days of no cooking or doing dishes!

Today I am back at work.

Yesterday, After our expedition to Wal-Mart, we went to a local farming community where they have a Large Corn Maze and played about some. The kids had a grand time. Went home enjoyed Survivor and CSI while packing for the cruise. Sad to say we only have one bag packed, but we have much of the other stuff arrayed about the family room. I know everyone says to pack lightly, but I had a rough time eliminating clothing. Biggest problem is the Formal nights. I cut the dress clothing down to a minimum, I'll be re-wearing a lot of stuff.

regarding CSI - do you think that the actress playing Sara is leaving the show? She looked pregnant to me (puffy face).....I think that was the message yesterday that we wont see her very often as she is on antoher shift.

I love that show - that is the one show that I look forward to each week!

 

[minnieandmickey]

Please - no spoilers! - it doesn't start over here till this weekend.

Sorry I didn't realize you got the US shows on your side of the pond.

Suz read that she has NOT come to terms on a long-term contract with them and would be done by November if they don't come to terms.

Not sure about the pregnacy issue.

She may be sitting out the season a bit, I'm not sure. Last season they did that splitting the shifts thing, but they still featured everyone equally. My thought was that it was a way to keep the contract negotiations with the actors in check. If you felt that they could put your character under an automobile with an oncoming flood at any time they wanted, you may be less demanding.

You couldn't do that job, you yourself can't speak english.

Everyone will be talking Australlian and we just have a bunch of head nodders.

 

[B9erSteve]

Fo! Oh denied!

 

[JLDSMD]

Fo! Oh denied!

Sorry Steve.

That was not my intention.
