Mich - No wonder you're tired! There must be 300 buttons on there! is it on both sides???? very cool!

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

Good Morning!

Lori- For some reason I can't see the pictures, I'll see if I can look at them when I get home.

Michelle- Cute! I really like the bag!

 

[DisneyMommyMichelle]

I can't see the photos either poop.

The buttons are only on the one side and it's a front pocket. It got to be waaay too heavy, so i decided to make it one sided, since that is the front.

Morning everyone How did everyone sleep? I slept well, just a few bathroom breaks

I BOOKED!!!!!!!!!!

I just called disney and booked our room for Feb. They said to call back in a couple of weeks to add on the tickets and DDP (they cannot add DDP until new rates and ticket prices will change also maybe??). I am happy with just having the room booked right now. That is all I was worrying about.

So, we always just book it all on the credit card and then pay it off. I read about people booking and then paying it off with disney as the time approaches. How do they do this? Do you just call central reservations and pay a little on it over the phone with a debit card or something? I know Sean would love this (he hates credit card debt). Any tips?

I slept alright. I'm not pregnant but I still have to go to the bathroom during the night every night! Last year I had some bladder issues and my bladder has never been the same. I can only imagine how it will be when I am pregnant!

Hi Timmy! I hope your doing well!

Chris -
Thanks for the comments ! I love doing photography. It's the more technical/business side of my business that I have a hard time getting myself motivated to do. I took the summer off from booking sessions ( even though I have a few here and there). I am revamping a few things before I jump into the holiday season full force !

Timmy -
Got your text and thanks for the compliment. Tia and Ryan were a lot of fun to cooperate. I had a massive headache that day and I was sooo disapointed we didn't get to go to the original location I had chosen.

Michele -
You creative little girl you - did you throw a couple of hidden Mickey's into those buttons ?!

Morning Nicole and Rebecca !!

Colleen - Where have you been ? I miss you !!!

Tia - How are you feeling ?

First of all - WHEN in February??? Im already plannign a Jan/Feb trip!!! When when when???

And yeah - just pay it a little at a time, by calling CRO. Thats what I always do. Every time I get paid - I would call and make a payment.

AND:


Lori! ! ! Those pictures of Tia and Ry are FABULOUS!!! Tia looks gorgeous, Ry looks handsome, and theyre just AMAZING! Nice job!!

Woohoo! yes, I just call CRO, about once a month and pay some on my debit card. It's so easy!

Hope everyone is having a good day ! Dan had the day off and we spent it together. We went downtown and had a lunch date. It was nice just the two of us.

Aw, how fun! Where did you eat? Any place that would make me jealous?

Thank you Chris! I think he is a pretty good looking kid, if I do say so myself. I sent Terry the link. His e-mail is funky and didn't get it the first time, so I resent it this morning.
Isn't Lori like SUPER talented???? Yep, yep, yep!

Better. I don't know what the deal was last night. It just hurt like h-e-double hockey sticks.

I don't know when I will be able to go back. Terry doesn't like Disney (shame on him) so I can't see him all ga ga for a WDW vacation. Maybe Ry and I can continue to go by ourselves. We have a good time and Terry might like a week of peace and quiet.
Thanks for the compliments Cat!


Morning everyone else! I have gotten so much done this morning already. Feels good to be able to check stuff off the to do list!
I hope you all have a great morning.

Hi gang,
I have a funny story for you all. So yesterday at work, my captain was on patrol. Anyway 911 was getting dozens of calls for a massive car accident with a pick-up that flipped over on a major highway here in brooklyn. Anyway our captain responded to the run, when he arrived the owner of the pick-up was hurt bad, but will be fine after a short stay in a hospital, he also had a dog with him and the dog suffered a broken leg only and also will be fine but will have to wear a cast for a few weeks. Anyway the guy refused to go to the hospital until he knew where the dog was going and that the dog would be ok and be cared for. The guy keep saying that the dog was family to him. Anyway our captain agreed to take the dog to the manhattan 24 hour emergency vet hospital.

So our captain, wrapped the dogs leg and splinted it and put the dog on a long board and put a oxygen mask on him and took the dog lights and sirens to the animal hospital. the guys at the fire house including myself figured we have a little fun with the captain over this. So yesterday a a delivery came to the fire house it was a milk bone basket for the captain. Also a thank you letter was recieved today for the captain it basiclly read " woof,woof,woof,bark,bark,woof,bark" With paw prints as a siginture. And someone photoshoped the movie poster ace venture pet detective with our captains picture and the word pet medic. We are trying to have a gold milk bone made and put it on the captains truck. I guess you really had to be there but i figured you guys would get a kick out of it.

Btw- the guy and the dog will be fine.

Lori- Your pics are fabulous! Tia and Ry look beautiful!

Lori/TIa...the pics were amazing!!!


Okay, I've decided I'm too SCARED to quit my job. I've had perfect opportunities to sit and talk with the pastor today, and totally chickened out.

Now, here's my crazy story of the day. So we had a child that was supposed to start at the daycare in May. Her mom, while still pregnant, paid her deposit which is clearly stated that is non-refundable. In May she called to say the baby was premature and couldn't start now till the end of July. So its the end of July and she calls today to say her aunt is going to watch her now and she wants her money back. Like, hello! I've turned away 4 families this week because we were expecting this infant to start. I can't just give her her NON-REFUNDABLE deposit back. So now she's calling her lawyer and filing complaints and calling the paper's opinion line because she said I told her she would get her money back if they couldn't bring her here. What I said was (when asked) was we would give money back if something happened to the baby. So you think this would give me the courage to quit~
