Yes, yes I DO!

Funny story of the AM = DS is trying to put a diaper (his diaper, size 5) on a Barbie doll under her wedding dress!

DD stayed over at Nannies last night. I just can't get off the DIS. I will have to move it, move it! I should have gone to 11AM Mass, guess I'm going to 6:30 or 7PM tonight!

Cute DS story. Once I walked into Jul's room (she was like 1 and a half) and she had her Bitty Baby doll's overalls on over her ankles and was just standing there. Funny memory.

We only go to saturday mass. If we miss it, we miss it.

I meant a disney ticker you silly.

Good Morning!

It depends on if you have no expiration on the tickets or not. If you don't, then you have to use them within 14days of first using them. OR if you don't use them at all, then they are good forever

Thanks for the info! Have fun at brunch!

I LOVE TB! I found a bottle of it with 2 soaps at Marshalls on clearance for like $15.00! SCORE!

I have never seen that one. I'll have to check it out! It's so nice being around fellow perfume junkies!

Do not, i repeat do not buy disney annunal passes!!!

Hmmmm....I am not sure it is worth it for me now. We'll see. Thanks for the info!

Hey everyone! It's been a while, and I thought I should check in! Wow, Michelle's pregnant!! I really have been away for a while. Congrats!
Nothing new going on with us.....still working too much, we've all been sick off and on. Seems like it's been a rough winter. I'll try to check in a little more often so that everyone doesn't think that I've been abducted by aliens!

Hi everyone! Its a gorgeous freaking day!!! And Im at work!

And you'd think I'd learn not to DIS at work.... that'd what got me to have to be in here on the weekend in the first place!!! I think I'm undiagnosed ADD!

I took Danny to the airport yesterday.... Im gonna miss 'em!

Im making ribs tongiht for dinner, on the grill - I LOVE RIBS!

PATSFAN! If they have free dining again, why not come down then? Ill be there! Sept 12 - 17th! Me and Danny and my bestest girlfriend Lora (she's on my myspace page) and her daughter Breanna (also on my myspace!) And I think Tia is wrapping her brain around the idea of it too! And Chris said she's head down if they offer free dining!

Come on! It'll be super way cool!

Why cant I concentrate on work? Oh, I know...cuz I freaking hate working. Not this job, or any job inparticular.... I HATE WORKING!

I wanna be a professional Sleeping, TV Watching Sun-Bather!

 

[CathrynRose]

And (duh!!!) wasnt impressed!!! (double duhhhhh!!!) And her daughter and my son.... (we were both in the delivery room for each other, her for Danny, and me for Bre.... I cut her cord!! Her daddy was a wimp!)

Hey! Glad to know you are still alive and kicking!

You know what kills me the most Cat, is all of the grass in that picture! My gosh it's pretty. We aren't known for our lush yards round these parts. THAT is one reason I NEED to live someplace that actually has moisture. I love flowers and grass and trees. *sigh*

I hope they make the darn announcement soon about free dining. Otherwise I am just going to book for when Ryan has his fall break. Which is like the second week of October. Then again, he did fine missing school for a week the last time. I should probably take advantage of this time because in a few years his work load will be too much.

Michelle - Have fun at Brunch. We don't have any places like that in the "city" (and I use the term loosely) we live in. Pretty casual around here.

I tried convincing Terry (we got to talk for like an hour off and on yesterday) to move to Florida. He said "Other than Mickey, WHY do you HAVE to move there?" I had no answer. I need to come up with some good ones and get back to him. He is not a fan of Disney AT ALL and he hates humidity. I feel like this is the time when we should do something like that, while Ry is still young enough to enjoy and appreciate it!

This leads me to a question .... if you lived in Orlando and could go to WDW anytime you wanted, do you think it would take some of the magic away from the yearly trip? Do you think it would get old? I can't imagine getting bored with Disney, but what are your thoughts on it?

And you know whats funny? I hate the grass. Thats our yard and I never go back there... when I 'lay out', I lay on a lawn chair in the driveway!

And when I lived in Tampa, I went everyweekend, sometimes 2 days in a row....never got old. I was only there for a year, but still. Sometimes it seemed better.... we were never in a rush!

One time I was wearing a thin white t-shirt, with this purple butterfly print on one side of it and really thin khaki pants, and purple flip flops.... and out of no where RAIN!!! I was drenched.... The boys started laughing at me "MOM HAS A PURPLE THONG ON!!!" and I looked down and I WAS SEE-THRU!!! You could see my purple bra, and purple thong!!! I said to the boys 'we gotta go' - and we headed out of the MK. Everyone was huddled under the awnings, and there was no where to walk but right down Main Street. I was a walking Porn Parade.... with Joey in front and Danny behind me.

So, being able to leave and not regret it when you're indecent, is a plus!

Hi gang,
Whats doing??? Whats new??
CAt- That last post is useless without pics!!

Whats everyone doing today???

 

[julsmom]

Cat, you are so funny!

Hi, Poppers!

Just a quick note to let you know that we got home (at 4 AM today, flight was delayed because of storms in Milwaukee????!!!). The balance of our trip was great, I'll post more later, including pictures. Never did go to the parks.

It looks like we might be among the crowd if free dining comes up. That would mean TWO trips in the fall! DS and his clan can't get away until the week after Thanksgiving, and we're going with them. But Jim didn't want to miss the opportunity for free dining--it's a great time to try some new restaurants. And, of course, since we didn't go to any parks this trip, we really need to go again soon!

One quick warning--

If you decide to use the resort airline checkin (and I do recommend it!), please be careful to check your boarding passes! I had gotten the wrong ones, for a flight to Louisville, KY, instead of Newark, NJ. There was another couple at Pop with the same names as ours! I thought that was so weird! We got our problem straightened out, but the other couple had already checked in and had the wrong boarding passes also. I hope they got things worked out!

I am thinking about going during free dining, but I think I may have to go as early in Aug. as they are going to allow. AND, if the rumor is true that it is 8/26, then I don't think I could go. It will be Sarah's first year of 'real' school = Kindergarden. It is not because I think she will "fall behind" as she knows most of the answers to "Are you smarter than a fifth grader!" BUT, more for the social ramifications .... see, in Sept of 2005 we had her in a PK for the second year, and I wanted a specific teacher. They didn't give her that teacher, so they said give it a month, then see if you still want her switched, and I did, (3 weeks, plus the week we were in disney) and when she joined the new class, the girls had already formed their clique and the poor girl never fit in. She only had one friend in the classroom and it was a lone boy. We tried having playdates with the other girls, but it was still two that were really close, then Sarah. SO, I am going to try to let her at least have a month in the classroom before I take her out. So, if they have free dining until the 29th, then we will arrive then, but if not, I hope for early Aug, so that I won't have to take her out. I hope this makes sense.

I was going to say the same thing about the GRASS!!!! We would kill for green like that!!!!!

This leads me to a question .... if you lived in Orlando and could go to WDW anytime you wanted, do you think it would take some of the magic away from the yearly trip? Do you think it would get old? I can't imagine getting bored with Disney, but what are your thoughts on it?

I lived two hours south of Orlando for a year and we went one weekend a month. We never got sick of it! We would get out of work, thow a pizza and two liter in the back seat and take off! We stayed off property for like thirty bucks a night and it was AWESOME! You don't feel like you have to smush everything into a week, after all, you will be back!

Ok, got to get the kids to bed, bye for now!

Hi gang,
whats doing?? So i went food shopping today, all by myself i like to add. So i arrive home and dw is what is this and that, i bought tons of goddies/snacks. I explained, first off aunt flo is comming for a visit by friday, so i need to have choclate in the house for dw(yes, i know what aunt flo is ) Second i had to explain to dw what happened to me at the store. The wildest thing i walking down aisle 19( ice cream aisle) some guy i never seen before pulls out a gun and grabs me as a hostage. He puts the gun to my head and explains that if i don't buy ben and jerrys ice cream,which is on sale this week, well the mad gunman says he'll take me out, shoot me and end my life. So i explained to dw i had no choice but to buy the ben and jerrys ice cream(which i told her was on sale anyway) So i saverd my own life and bought 2 pints of ben and jerrys. It was a close call!! I don't think she believed me about the mad gunman.

How in the world can you hate grass? Wowza. The big deal here is landscaping with rocks. YUCK! Rocks of every size, shape and color. It's horrible. I moved here from Colorado and I was shocked to not see one yard with grass in the front. There were a few exceptions, but not many. Heck if weeds that bloom grown in my yard I leave them alone! I justify this because I tellmyself at least it is alive and blooming!
I lived in Clearwater for a little over a year. I was brokeity broke broke so I never got to do to Disney. But I will be persistant in my plight. Eventually he has to give in right?
Walking PURPLE pron parade you mean. That is too funny. Good thing about going someplace so big with so many people is that you will probably never see any of them again. That was a funny story though. I am sure at the time it wasn't so much.
Although.... I say Disney is so big blah blah. There was one trip I took over Spring Break to DL/Sea World, etc. I saw 2 people I knew in DL and one I ran into at Sea World. What are the chances? Even when I fly I usually run into someone I know. About 3 or 4 times in LAX and once in the Houston airport. I can never "run and hide"....
