Morning Sans homies







MonyK have a great time at AK.

Pattyw enjoy your yummy lasagna dinner.

Lynne enjoy your tea

Schumi always nice to catch up with special friends. Have a great afternoon.

Mac coffee is on. Come on over kneester.

Hey! Keisha

Where’s charade this morning

Chuckers we need a buddy update

 

[Charade67]

Quick hello before I have to leave for work.

Macraven - Completing college student loan free is awesome. I have dh’s Social security number memorized because I had to write it on his loan repayment checks for several years.

Schumi and Lynne - I hope you get better weather soon. It’s nice here for now, but I think we have more rain coming.

Patty - The lasagna sounds yummy. I think we are going to have something Italian tonight.

MonyK - I still won’t ride RnR. The others I’m okay with. Have a great day.

Gotta run.

Hi Robo. We were posting at the same time.

 

[pattyw]

I totally understand the bite in the wallet of having a kid in college and they live away from home. $$$

I had 4 sons go away for school.

We covered every penny of it and provided the transportation for them
(That means I drove to pick them up during school and long christmas breaks and drove them back to school.)

Since they never took out any student loans, they graduated debt free, which not many young people can say.

I felt like I won the lottery once they graduated.

That's great Mac!! The boys are very lucky!! Mine have been debt free- until Kyle's upcoming med school! We'll work on that the best we can!

Off to meet my bestest friend for the day, we chat and have lunch and chat some more........we meet somewhere in the middle for both of us as we live further away than we used to when we first met........but always have the best day.

Hope your lunch was great! even better with a good friend!

Animal kingdom today. Storm blew through yesterday afternoon, then pretty pleasant evening. Stuffed after dinner at Liberty Tree. Had a wine spritzer with dinner- bit weird to get alcohol in MK. Son thinks he's brave now after riding RnR - hands up on Big thunder and mine train...extra magic hours last night- we lasted an hour. Usually we close it down as the waits really does drop the last hour.

You're fitting in a lot Monyk! I love it!

I have tea,

I think I have to drink more green tea! Only one cup of coffee a day now for me.

Morning Sans homies

Hi Robo!

Quick hello before I have to leave for work.

Have a great day, Charade!!

 

[tink1957]

Good morning everyone

Carole, a day out with a friend is always fun. Have a great time catching up.

Monyk, R & RC is my favorite ride at Disney with Everest and FOP tied for a close second. Enjoy your day and say hello to the Yeti for me.

Robo, Love the 100 and sexy
Hope you and DH are recovering nicely.

Patty, you have inspired me to make lasagna tonight with the leftover sauce I have from last week (frozen)

Lynne, hope it heats up for you soon...here's some sunshine from GA
It might be dry enough to cut the grass today finally.

Charade, don't work too hard ...hope our Braves win tonight!

Now I have to go chase Sasha around the yard to get her back in the fence...she dug another hole under the fence and the railroad ties time to pour concrete around the whole thing.

Have a wonderful day homies

 

[Lynne G]

HeHe, Tink, we had Miss shovel paws, Lizzie, one of our Labs, that used to like to visit the neighbors after digging under our stockade fence. Hence, we put large stones under our fence, as well as cinder-blocks. To this day, they are still buried under our new fence, even though she is long gone.

 

[Lynne G]

Oh and not to be outdone by Mr. shovel paws, Lizzie's brother, he dug a hole so deep, it went below our concrete porch. We had so many holes in our backyard, when they both died, we had to get over a truckload of new dirt to level our backyard.

 

[Lynne G]

Morning Patty. Yep, little one is contemplating going to medical school after college. So, we half joking said to join the Air Force, so she'd get her medical license from Walter Reed.

Little one is done next Thursday, so I think she is in end of school year mode already. Her friend finally got her driving license, so older one's taxi is not needed as much. We refused to get her a car to drive to school. Heck, school is less than a mile up the road, .92 miles. Heck, I did not have my own car until my 3rd year of college, and not a new car until I was married. Sigh, just reviewed our insurance, two kids under 25 driving, one a boy, sign, the money train is still steaming ahead.

 

[pattyw]

Tink- enjoy your lasagna!!

Tink & Lynne- I'm always telling my cats- We can't have nice things because of you! They are cute and loving, though!

Lynne- I feel your pain on car insurance! 2 boys here! At least Kyle will turn 25 this year!! And go for it DD on med school!! It's a long haul, but worth it to have a career you love!

 

[Lynne G]

Robo, love the memes. And hope you and DH are resting comfortably and healing fast. Sending lots of mummy dust and hope to say hello to you in October.

 

[schumigirl]

Evening all.......

Hope everyone’s good.........

Vicki......love the sound of your Sasha......she sounds like a whole bunch of fun!!! Hope it doesn’t cause you too much work though making the garden escape free.........



Had a lovely day with best friend........been too long since we seen each other with one thing and another.........she heads off next week to her villa in Spain for the summer.......so will try a get together when she gets back just before we set off in September.........

We spoke today about paying off our kids University fees too.......we also got Kyle a car as soon as he was at college.......which is where you spend two years before University, it was a 30 minute drive away........also here you don’t get your licence till you are 17.

Although he was accepted at the 5 Universities he applied to, he chose a University within driving time although it was a long daily drive, it suited him better and we were so glad he stayed at home.....and he got an excellent degree there! Choices are difficult though........

Quiet night tonight........sun is shining and it’s gorgeous.........

5 weeks till we go on our next adventure...........

 

[kohlby]

I need to get back to checking up on y'all here! Disboards website is usually a bit wonky for me so got annoyed with it working less and less and therefore checked in less. It doesn't seem to matter what device I do it on though.

All is well here. Just doing random Disney and Universal days here and there. Going to see Rent tonight at Dr. Phillips Center. Booked my first Disney cruise for September. Just a four day Bahamas but we realized it was now or never if we were going to take the kids on one.

Eldest now has his driver's permit. So has started learning to drive. I'm not brave enough to go with him yet - I make my husband go. Here in FL, they can get it when they turn 15 but need their permit for a full year before they get their license. He won't have a car for quite a while but I don't want to send him off to college without his license in hand just in case he ever needs to take over driving for a friend.

As for cars, I had my first car at 22. I bought it myself. I knew I'd have to buy my own car which is why I didn't have one before that. I lived at college so that helped. If I had lived at home, then my parents would have bought me a cheap one though since I would have had no way to get there otherwise. There was no public transportation where I used to live - not even taxis.

Hi kohlby Nice to hear from you, teens and driving is a scary thing

Lasagna is in the oven, it smells so good. Trey brought garlic bread and a nice red moscato which I'm enjoying as I post.

It was hard not to buy our ROF tickets today but we have 3 months and my AP is up for renewal this month so it will have to wait. I was glad to see the 3 months free extension is still available so I can get an extra year of HHN.

Hope everyone has a great night

 

[Lynne G]

I think they said the extra 3 months was good to the end of the year Tink. Mine is up in August, so hoping that is true too, as I then can get 2 Octobers in before renewing next year. Nice sounding dinner and wine choice.

We had seasoned beef, taters and corn. Just chilling now.

August countdown is commencing. Hey Kolby, if you are around the last two weeks of August, my little one would appreciate a coaster riding pal. Weenie me will not go on some of them. Mummy is my limit. Her, thrill lover.

You're good at planning vacations- as soon as you finish a TR, you start another trip!

Hi, Kohlby! I've never done a Disney cruise - or any cruise yet. I guess the idea of being on a boat out to see scares me! But I'd like to try one at some point- maybe a short one to start!

Yep- kids driving is tough! and expensive!!

Lasagna is in the oven, it smells so good. Trey brought garlic bread and a nice red moscato which I'm enjoying as I post.

Sounds good!! Our lasagna dinner was yummy!!

August countdown is commencing.

It will come fast! Summer always goes by so quick!

Off to Home Depot now- need some more supplies for gardening this weekend!

 

[keishashadow]

What happens when you read lasagne three times in a thread? Beetlejuice materializes? Bloody Mary appears in the mirror? No, you just get quite the hankering for it. May make the rotation next week since i bought a bunch of ground beef today. May even have some of my sauce in the freezer

Happy Thursday!
Sounds like a fun time with your friend Schumi!
Morning Mac
Nicer weather soon I hope Lynne.
Lasagne sounds good Patty! Can't beat the price either.

Animal kingdom today. Storm blew through yesterday afternoon, then pretty pleasant evening. Stuffed after dinner at Liberty Tree. Had a wine spritzer with dinner- bit weird to get alcohol in MK.

Need coffee...

Last trip we had lunch @ The Plaza, thought I was being pranked when asked if i’d Like to see the drink menu. First day they offered, hadn’t heard of the new policy. All i wanted was a (couple) of fresh-brewed iced tea. Not much of a day-drinker on vacation unless i’m On a beach at an all-inclusive

Would you believe I spent most of the morning making various types of slime? Must admit it was fun, if not messy. Have glitter everywhere!

Rest of day normal transportation duties interspersed with fighting with website trying to upload all the new HHN info to the thread. Hours spent there, not even half done. Tomorrow is another day.

Not a big wine drinker. Tried moscato for the first time on recent cruise, very enjoyable! Yes, sweeter the better, if they only could make a koolaid brand i’d Be set

I resisting cruising until 20 years or so ago. Mr who served in the navy on a carrier back in the day, finally convinced me to try a 3 day DCL on the Wonder. I’ve never looked back, love it.

 

[RAPstar]

Thinking about going to see Hereditary again after work tomorrow. But I'm also seeing the Mister Rogers documentary Saturday morning so I don't wanna overdo it lol

 

[macraven]

It is almost midnight and I am finally here.....

Had a busy day and sat a long time at the hair salon.
Yes, had the works done.

So now I am playing ketchup here.







Kohlby....you're back!!!

woohoo.....

you've been missed here.

for those that don't know her, she was very active with us before.




Since I want to be in bed before midnight, I'm just passing by for a moment and finish up reading emails before i go to bed.

I will leave the light on so no one will stumble over the dogs or cats when they come home tonight.
