[tlinus]

Morning ALL!!!

It's Thursday - one day closer to the weekend!!!!

 

[bubba's mom]

Morning yerselves everyone.....just 3 days left to work.....

Well, the coach didn't actually "order" shoes. I didn't have to pay anything for them, but I would have if they would have been ordering NEW shoes. They had a stash of track shoes that they have kept for years (obviously) and he was taking down sizes to bring to the kids....Zack thought he was getting their sizes so that he could order them some, but NO! I sure would have already had some for him had I known they were giving them the REJECTS!!!!! The middle school boys always get the bottom of the bucket and since Zack wears an 11, they would most likely have come from the high school reject bucket. The coaches in our school district don't seem to care much about developing their athletes. Jodie's "RIP" term applies to our coaches. I think they are just there to draw a check and not to make a difference. I have a child who I think could really be a star at track. They were supposed to have a meet yesterday (the day that my son got his funky track shoes), but it was cancelled. Can you imagine what it would have been like if he had been running a race and his sole came flying off his shoe? It was like this during football season with his pads. They gave him hip pads that had exposed metal on them. I duct taped them and I guess that embarrassed the coaches enough that they gave him a decent set. I could go on and on about our athletic program.......

Yikes! Sorry you lost your voice...but I bet the guys are glad it's 'quiet' around the house these days.....

Okay...I don't know any other school district who supplies shoes? Football pads...yep, I can see that...but shoes.... If you didn't have to pay for them, guess we shoulda known huh.... Well...at least you are rather now 'well informed' about what the skool is 'providing' and can plan accordingly.....

i thought everyone scrubbed their walls.......

scrub walls?? uh, no..... IF it looks THAT bad, I slap a coat of paint on it....call it cleaned

yea, we are crashing the wedding.
maybe we should say groom side when they seat us so know one will know..

nah.....what fun would that be?

oh please...........ugh.......i have dsl/ at&t also.
i typed responses to the last 5 pages and it all disappeared.
said some error.

That's why I didn't "say goodnite".....got error message and was tired....said screw it and went to sleep

Hey MAC! One good thing about AT&T DSL is that the Loews Hotels at UO are now AT&T WI-FI Hot Spots!

i don't have a laptop.


i always feel so disconnected to the world when i am on vacation.
no internet usage..........

Too bad I don't have AT&T....If I don't have my net, I feel the same mac....would be nice to checkin before bedtime......

Maybe you should ask Mr Mac for a laptop for your birthday or Christmas


Well...off to work peoples.....have a good day today......

And Todd & Lawrence.... for another "very few smokes" day

 

[Metro West]

Morning all...just stopping by at work. Be back later and have a good day...it's almost Friday.

 

[macraven]

late for work.


catch all later

 

[AlexandNessa]

Good morning, all.

Brab, Bob and Roger will give you as many grocery stops as you need. I'm sure they'll be able to tell you better than me where the closest grocery store is. I am not sure where the CI&S is as we're going right from HRH to PC. I know last cruise we stopped at a Publix. We will do the same this time. DCL doesn't care what you bring. We brought our backpack coolers filled with beer. Stuck a luggage tag right on a case of water and had it delivered to our room too.

Actually, we were enjoying some adult beverages at the bar at the adult pool, and the bartender was making fun of us for drinking at her bar while we had beers in our bags (waiting for the rooms to open up). They really don't care.

server error messages finally, quick fly-by hi!

ds was on way out the door when we bolted for Bathroom, yuck...back in bed...i should clean...don't want to...slacker

lori - i was thinking the trip was a romantic get away , oh well - all travel is good to recharge imo

barb - from what the cruise boards report no issue with even slapping a luggage tag on a case of beer as checked or in carry on. Amazing how peeps tout Disney as so family friendly & rip on Carnival as being so low brow...when in December Carnival was yanking booze from carry on luggage both in Port of Tampa & when returning to ship from ports of call left & right of us. Don't get me started on the whole gambling is bad line of thought when they shove the pricey bingo cards down your throat & allow kids to play (just not to purchase or claim the prizes)...vent over.

jodie - @ the risk of forgetting to check for a counter, when do u pillage & plunder the caribbean? ps hands off my duck

i cannot believe how much my youngest DS has grown in 2 years!

Great picture Janet!!! Hope DS is feeling better soon

no fun being sick

I am with you on the cleaning - should be doing lots of it but got a whacky schedule today

mid bean gets out at 11:45 and lil bean goes in for regular afternoon K at 12:15. Have to go back and do the mid year conferences for mid bean at 2:10, pick up lil bean at 3:15 and his conf is at 3:20 - thank goodness there isn't baseball or softball tonight. Plus I am now waiting for R&F to redeliver cbean's mirror (it was broke) and have a few other things like laundry that need to be taken care of.......grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr........not enough hours in the day.

 

[tlinus]

Morning yerselves everyone.....just 3 days left to work.....

Hoping they fly by fer ya!!!! just think of today as another day closer to vacation

Yikes! Sorry you lost your voice...but I bet the guys are glad it's 'quiet' around the house these days.....

Latching on to this to say Get Well Soon

scrub walls?? uh, no..... IF it looks THAT bad, I slap a coat of paint on it....call it cleaned

I love your style!!!!!!!


and for the record, I scrub the walls once or twice a year.....rest of the time its swiffer to the rescue

Too bad I don't have AT&T....If I don't have my net, I feel the same mac....would be nice to checkin before bedtime

Jim always needs the internet a few days during vacation. We usually get it for 2 or 3 days and expense it because he needs it for work So hopefully I will be able to check in while away

And Todd & Lawrence.... for another "very few smokes" day

I agree - good luck today guys!!!!!!!

Morning all...just stopping by at work. Be back later and have a good day...it's almost Friday.

Hey Hey - Have a great day at work - see you later!!!!!

late for work. catch all later

See you around later mac, have a great day!!

Good morning, all.

Brab, Bob and Roger will give you as many grocery stops as you need.

I guess then that I can ask for one when they take us from the HRH to the Holiday Inn Express at the airport. We have a room with a kitchenette there and would be nice to make something for dinner as we are in the area where there are not alot of restaurants. Do I have to set that up now or can I wait until they pick us up on day 1??

 

[keishashadow]

tracie - thanx, it just popped out of photobucket this am lol

sounds like u have a busy day! I hate teacher conferences ; i get intimidated because they are smrt and i am not

when i reported Ds off this am (only 2nd day missed this year...vacations don't count in my book )...i got "oooooh... , sick again?" (no, he's going to stay home to fetch me my beers outta the fridge while i start getting smashed early ). away i go, bbl

awww Penny - believe it or not, right now I would prefer snow to rain. the ground here is so soggy and from the wicked rain we had on saturday, i am afraid of flooding in the basement again if we get too much rain. keeping my fingers crossed that the storm misses you completely

 

[coastermom]

Hello all .

I am going to parent teacher conf. today too. My DS has 1/2 a day today and well I am not really loving it. I have so much to do before company comes on Saturday . We all know how it is when the kiddies are home not much else gets done.

Sorry Tricia there are just some things that come first and well Starbucks is there even before my DH sometimes ... Gotta have that fix .

Well as for cleaning I am convinced that our is down there now making more and more of it's self . I swear that I did it yesterday and it looks like I haven't done it in a month . Has to be the teenage girls .

I just got off the phone with our accountant .. Also a friend of ours...And our return has an error of over $200 . .. Now to worry though it will be resolved . I am thinking that it is going to cost us that to fill up our van soon . ANYONE see the price of gas in NYC .. $3.45 a gallon . The guy in front of me yesterday filled up a giant SUV and it was over $80 . And now our Gov. is client number 9 and we are getting a new Gov. it is all falling apart here in the good old state of NY.


Off to clean up and well then I have PT Conf. and a dentist appointment for my DD and then it will be later tonight . Hope to get in to visit again sometime today .


Lost is on tonight so this is me at 9 PM..

Later Guys

Hi I'm among the living. . . working incredible hours and sneaking on during a quick break.

Hope everyone's being good!

 

[loribell]

Morning everyone! Hope you all have a fabulous day!!!

Lawrence & Todd good luck today!

Wendy & Fletch same to you!

Well, I've done a ton of yearbook pages this week, and a whole load more to go! I tell ya, the fun just never ends! Hehe

Have a great night y'all!!!

So what classes do you teach? I loved my yearbook class when I was in hs a couple of years ago.

ppphhbbbbttttt....who cares?! I don't mind the mess.... if I did, I woulda moved out long ago....

Makes me feel right at home.

First...I think we are one of the few people NOT having corned beef this weekend. Prolly have pizza tho .

Yuck! I'm not having it either. We do not do big St. Patty's celebrations around here. Of course that is other than the parties going out for their green beer.

Guess their Ma never told 'em if they didn't have anything nice to say, don't say anything . Which are you leanin' more towards???

Well just in case this is what happened...I have been known a few times to post that I didn't know because I had this or that but only because no one had responded to the post and I wanted them to know that someone was reading. And it gives them a little bump. So maybe that's why?

Second: How did the earless bunny know to say "what" if he couldn't hear the other one in the first place??

He saw lips moving?

Well....why do you think I gave you cliff notes??? To use 'em.....

And they were wonderful. I had already copied a lot of stuff before I got to the cliff notes though so I was responding to all of it and your cliff notes and it all disappeared.

Yes, I think you have mentioned you hate computers....by the way, how did you make out at Best Buy?? Are your problems related to having it there to be 'fixed'?

I have not had time to do anything about the second computer again yet. I am having problems with murphy, the dis and anything else that can give me grief.

Sounds like a wonderful little getaway....even if it was work related (which, by the way, exactly what is that anyway ) That was wonderful you were able to get that pain worked out of your shoulder....let's hope the results last for awhile! Is the "magic shoulder" a 'technique' or product? Was this the same sister you take pix for...or different sis? Don't worry about ketchup....you did great!!!!

It was a wonderful getaway. I have no idea what work is. But I had fun. The magic shoulder healing was a technique, Oriental. It was wonderful. I am going to have to find somewhere here to get it done. I only have one sister. Thank goodness she is a great one! It is just the 2 of us.

....which, I meant to mention to KFed...I likes the new ticker

Me too!

Can't get one for myself...that's just wrong....I only GIVE 'em

We nominated you. You have the photo. So you need to put it in your siggie. Why is that wrong?

I think it's CRUNCH TIME for our Jennifer ..... Hey homie...if you're out there....leave a message on the machine to let us know you are still hangin' on

True, but I didn't want to leave her out.

Well, the coach didn't actually "order" shoes. I didn't have to pay anything for them, but I would have if they would have been ordering NEW shoes. They had a stash of track shoes that they have kept for years (obviously) and he was taking down sizes to bring to the kids....Zack thought he was getting their sizes so that he could order them some, but NO! I sure would have already had some for him had I known they were giving them the REJECTS!!!!!

They gave him hip pads that had exposed metal on them. I duct taped them and I guess that embarrassed the coaches enough that they gave him a decent set. I could go on and on about our athletic program.......

That is so sad. It is not right for the kids. They need to do their job or leave. Period!

Our coaches do order things here and then we pay for them. That way the kids all have the same things to wear and we get the schools discounts & don't have to pay taxes on it.

yea, we are crashing the wedding.
maybe we should say groom side when they seat us so know one will know..

I think there is going to be more room on that side, isn't there?

i second that.
brab needs a goldie now for the cliff notes...

See Barb! DO IT!

ds was on way out the door when we bolted for Bathroom, yuck...back in bed...i should clean...don't want to...slacker

Poor kid! Hope he feels better tomorrow.

lori - i was thinking the trip was a romantic get away , oh well - all travel is good to recharge imo

Haven't you guys figured out that I don't like my dh? I need to get away from him more than than the kids.

i cannot believe how much my youngest DS has grown in 2 years!

Isn't it amazing how much they change! Loved that pic.

I am with you on the cleaning - should be doing lots of it but got a whacky schedule today

mid bean gets out at 11:45 and lil bean goes in for regular afternoon K at 12:15. Have to go back and do the mid year conferences for mid bean at 2:10, pick up lil bean at 3:15 and his conf is at 3:20 - thank goodness there isn't baseball or softball tonight. Plus I am now waiting for R&F to redeliver cbean's mirror (it was broke) and have a few other things like laundry that need to be taken care of.......grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr........not enough hours in the day.

Sounds like a very busy day! You need a vacation.

when i reported Ds off this am (only 2nd day missed this year...vacations don't count in my book )...i got "oooooh... , sick again?" (no, he's going to stay home to fetch me my beers outta the fridge while i start getting smashed early ). away i go, bbl

The secretary at Mikey's school always sounds like that too. None of her business. If my kids can make straight A's without being in the classroom then it really doesn't matter. And if we don't keep them home to get well then it just keeps getting spread around the school. They should be thanking you!

I still have the boat that was sent to me last year. I will send it to you guys if you need it.

Hello all .

Well as for cleaning I am convinced that our is down there now making more and more of it's self . I swear that I did it yesterday and it looks like I haven't done it in a month . Has to be the teenage girls .

So laundry is in the rabbit family? Make them do their own laundry for a while and they will cut back on the usage. I do about 6 loads of laundry a week. I can't believe you guys have to do so much laundry.

I just got off the phone with our accountant .. Also a friend of ours...And our return has an error of over $200 . .. Now to worry though it will be resolved . I am thinking that it is going to cost us that to fill up our van soon . ANYONE see the price of gas in NYC .. $3.45 a gallon . The guy in front of me yesterday filled up a giant SUV and it was over $80 . And now our Gov. is client number 9 and we are getting a new Gov. it is all falling apart here in the good old state of NY.

Good luck on the tax mistake. Glad you have someone to take care of it for you. That reminds me, I have an email I need to copy and paste about gasoline. Will do that in a minute.

if you get a chance, check out the thread on the cb board titled
"confession time, admit it. "

Will try to find it in a bit. You aren't going to be getting in trouble are you?
