hope urall enjoying ur Saturday, it's at least the 10 day of rain here

going down to the 30's & 40's @ nights, barely hitting 60 during the day, almost ready to turn the furnace back on

banana nut bread - haven't made that in years, or blueberry muffins...now i'm hungry for baked goods/any will do . purposely didn't buy any trying to cut back on the junk food in the house. Gave kids their own stash & said to keep it in their rooms so ma & pa aren't tempted.

ex family was sicilian; always called sauce gravy...and it was never made without somesort of meat/pork/chicken in it...preferrably all 3 - yum...with meatballs the size of baseballs

I wish we could get some rain...it's been a month and everything is soooo dry! They are called for showers tomorrow and Monday so let's hope we get something.

RVGal, ok my oldest DS and I have been trying to figure it out and can't so I am asking. What in the world is that little creature in your signature? The quote on it makes me think of an embroidery design I have of a unicorn pooping out lucky charms...sorry had to ask!

Hi Todd ... just finished reading your mini-trip reports

 

[bubba's mom]

Barb, I'm still planning full speed ahead. Whether or not the layoff will affect our vacation plan, depends on how long my DH is out of work. Sadly, if he doesn't find an acceptable job here, we may have to move. I'll be crushed, if he ends up having to take a job out of state.

Just tell DH you CAN'T move.....AND, if he'd been more attentive for your birthday and Mother's Day, you would have maybe thought about it.....but... you're stayin' in FL and that's it

mr mac says, if i want something, go buy it. don't wait for mothers day or birthday to get it.


so in the long run, it is really okay with me.

i have been busy all day long holding my cat

So, what you're saying is: "everyday" is Mother's Day and your birthday

Dare I ask how Baby is?? ...and YOU?

Arrived home safe and sound …

... Will start working on trip report once we download all of our 2000+ pictures ...

Glad you had a great time and are home in one piece.... Good luck with 2K+ pix to upload How did you have time to enjoy yourself if you were taking so many pictures

welcome back, Bonlee (like Brangelina, but better cause it's you)

.....and yes...the only other person in Orlando who is up at that hour is me.

I am with you bubba's mom....I have been at work for 8 hours and only have 4 more to go, before I do it all over again tomorrow

ok....you win

I am off everyday (in the head)

must admit....that was funny!

So much to do......so little time and not enough arms

you could hire me to help you..... I'd do that for a homie ...ship the Beans here

Morning Barb!! One more day till you have a day off

it's here!!!

Tamie - yes - we rescheduled the trip......instead of going the 27th - 3rd we are going 3rd - 10th of June. Just pushed it back a week. Again.

It can't be any hotter than it was during the freak hot spell we experienced in October 2006........It was really really REALLY hot. Just wondering about the crowd level because I think the southern schools are out by then, right? It'll be manageable with the FOTL pass, but I don't like being shoulder to shoulder with peeps in the parks, kwim?

You, KBean and Jim will be fine with the crowd levels....don't worry.... I keep tellin' ya that! IF anything, there will be longer queue lines and you'll just have a bigger smile on yer face when you walk past the same family (standing in line) for the 4th time straight!

I know what your saying about having to be at the parks when its shoulder to shoulder cause we usually take our vacation june 4-11 but promised DW that we would do something special for anniversary this year so we are going july 6-11 and anniversary is on july 7th so I know its going to be crowded and now hoping we get our rebate check back in time so I can make it real special for her

Okay....Happy ?th Anniversary (early) and when I see you, I can wish you Happy Belated ?th Anniversary...So, I've got my bases covered! (btw, that is what the 4 night cruise is for....early anniversary gift to ourselves )

Dudley was a 75 minute wait, but with our magic keys we were on in 17 minutes (yeah, I used my timer on my watch, I know I'm a geek!) Spiderman was 35 regular, we were on and off in just under 9 minutes!

You're not a geek, but that is very interesting/useful info Good thinkin'! If anyone wants, I will "clock" every ride/attraction for the wait-time in Express when we go...

Do you know what the problem with baking a loaf of banana nut bread is?

You wind up eating a loaf of banana nut bread.

So, then my question to you would be: If you KNOW you are going to eat a loaf of banana nut bread, why make a loaf of banana nut bread in the first place? (btw...shoulda shipped some here...we woulda helped ya out )

hope urall enjoying ur Saturday, it's at least the 10 day of rain here

going down to the 30's & 40's @ nights, barely hitting 60 during the day, almost ready to turn the furnace back on

What a day at the salon today

Our day started sunny and was in the low 70's (after the deluge yesterday)...but, got cloudy as the day went on, windy and rain tonite and at some points tomorrow... dude...where's spring?

I wish we could get some rain...it's been a month and everything is soooo dry! They are called for showers tomorrow and Monday so let's hope we get something.

Heard about those fires down there....BIL is Edgewater/NSB area...Dad is Ocala...I think Dad is safe...and BIL too...haven't heard any reports of it from BIL..... I was kinda shocked to hear about them...hadn't realized how dry it was down there....

 

[bubba's mom]

Hey to everyone

Hittin' the hay EARLY tonite (like Todd does!)... been a long, busy week and I am SO lookin' forward to FINALLY having a day off


I bid you all a good evening and restful sleep!

Hi Bonny...thanks for reading the report.

 

[RAPstar]

Saw Prince Caspian today. really good. Now I want to read the book. And finish the 2 after that. I finished the first 1 and 1/2 (didn't finish A Horse and His Boy) like last yr, but got busy.

Yeah...it's been brutal. Everyone's grass is a nice shade of brown.

Good Sunday morning all-

Made it to church last night, got you all covered

Family bridal shower went pretty well yesterday
My mom was a little witchy in the car going up there, but everything else went well. Got to finally meet one of my mom's first cousins that I never met before. My mom would mention the cousin on and off for a few yrs, but I never met her before until yest. I have a very disfunctional family on my mom's side of the family. My mom has this status thing that she has to see her cousins first before I can . I probably don't make sense to anyone here, but this is what goes on in the family
Anyways, her cousin grew up blocks from my mom, so they were kinda best friends as well growing up. This woman is so nice . She really wanted to know about Chrissy, her heart surgeries when she was a baby,etc. Wanted to know about Matthew as well. She was so positive about me as a stay-at-home mom, etc. She said I'm doing the right thing, etc. Mom's cousin is a 4th grade teacher in a catholic school for many yrs.
Alot of cousins and family members on my mom's and grandma's side of the family are so snooty with me, as they don't care less about me or my kids,etc. This cousin is so different. It was really nice to to socialize with her cousin and couple of other older women at our table. I had a good time
Chrissy actually did fine for the 3 and a half hours we were there. I forgot to bring the Nintendo DS for her, so she was bored at times, but she did well.
Future bride and groom got alot of nice gifts
My mom actually won a prize!
We all had to guess how many Hershey kisses were in this glass jar. My mom was the closest, so she won the glass jar and the chocolate!


Just a random thing about me I'm sharing. I am an only child, no brothers or sisters. Was a latchkey kid growing up, as my parents both worked full-time at the time. They still work full-time, at least my mom still does.

You wouldn't believe a couple of family members(my mom and my aunt(mom's sister)) would tell me I should go back to work when my kids were 3 or 4 yrs old. I don't know what they were thinking

Anyways, got to get ready soon to go to the Scout picnic today.

Have a good day everyone!

Hi to all!

Anyone remember this song from 1989? I LOVE it!

Yeah...it's been brutal. Everyone's grass is a nice shade of brown.

Then you don't have to cut it...is there no making you happy? Lookit all the money you're saving in gas for the mower!

Here's a picture taken from when I saw Prince Caspian today. See the resemblance??

Very cute pic Andy....altho, I believe the Panda is doing a karate kick....you are very close! How was the movie? My Mom wanted to take Bubba, but he wasn't interested whatever...... Going to be a whole bunch of series apparently???

Rose...glad to hear the shower went well and you got to 'meet' a cousin. I think it's rude for people to tell other Moms when they should go back to work. You have to do what's best for your family. I only worked part time when Bubba was little....only putting him in daycare 2 days a week for about 6 hours each day. The other days, I was home. Once he went to school all day, (1st grade), I went back to work during his school hours. The way I look at it, what else am I going to do while he's in school? May as well work and help contribute to the bills around here (..which, got all turned around and now I work for nice vacations ) But, except for 2 days during the week, I am at work while he's in school and home when he gets home....it all works out for us.


Okay, I FINALLY have time off today....I'm going to be productive, I'm going to be productive, I'm going to be productive..... (if i keep saying it, it will happen )

Enjoy the day everyone...... off to be productive!

Yeah, it's very rude. But I'm used to the rudeness of some family members. Been this way for many, many yrs.
It isn't right to be treated that way, but it happens and I deal with it.

THat's why I love you homies! You all are not rude!

Nope...no making me happy!

Good afternoon Homies
Sorry for not being on cause started feeling really bad yesterday so had to make a run to the er last night cause chest and arm hurting bad and good news ekg showed my heart normal but when they did my blood pressure it was 199 over 104 and they told me thats why I was feeling bad and put me on some blood pressure medication and told me to see regular doctor in which I have none but they said my arm was fine and the lump will go away in a week or so and it was probably a ligament strain nothing serious but thats whats being going on and I feel much better now
