Afternoon all

... well, our snow that arrived yesterday is now melting (can you tell I don't like Winter?? )

You'll be happy to know I haven't had a drink with caffiene or any other stimulant in over a year. My DH just quit all caffiene and other stimulants a few months ago. I don't encourage frequent use of them for anyone, but thought it might help Dave and wife on their trip. The vitamin drinks never came to mind because I've never tried them. GREAT IDEA!!!!!!!!!! I'm an insomniac every night, but I could use a vitamin shot in the morning for sure.

Macidaminator

Wow ... that's awesome. I wish I could stay away from caffeine

Dave - you can call and price the package with the pin number, but it doesn't match your dates.....hmmmmmm.....listen to mac, try the AP rate and, if you have it ,the AAA rate.

I have to agree - I've been playing with the numbers for our May trip, and I think the AP rate may be the best best, especially since with the package you need to buy park tickets at $75/person. I'm looking at booking our May dates with the AAA rate now and when the AP rate comes out change it to that ...

Hey Mike Save up all those pennies. I may rething my birthday vacation to coincide with Frank's 8th birthday so we can do my cruise AND HHN (his birthday is October 17th)....I know for sure DH and Kait would do HHN!! She did her first official haunted house Eastern State Penitentary this year and loved it!!

I have to get there!!!! I just used google maps for directions, and it's only 57 miles from my house!!

 

[donaldduck352]

Eastern State looks awesome for a horror house!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But for me it would take 20hrs of driving..

I like the one they got in Alabama,I got too see that one(6hrs driving) And it takes 30min to walk it,awesome!!

Hey Mike,57miles is not bad for a good scare .

I was gonna say I am a member of CSW for a year now(I lurk and post very little) and they got a house in Melrose that I heard was pretty good never tried it and its only 45miles away..

Got too start hitting some of the locals too see what they have to offer!!

[Metro West]

WOW this time change messes me up!!

The only thing that really bothers me is the fact that it's dark at 6:30pm and it feels as though it should be later.

And...just as I will get use to the time change, it'll be time to "spring ahead".

I totally agree, although it was yesterday that was my bad day. My husband walked into the kitchen after work and I told him to just back out quickly while he had the chance! I was on the verge of strangling anyone who came near me! Today at least couldn't be worse. Although this steady 37 degrees and rain is really getting on my nerves!

The only thing that really bothers me is the fact that it's dark at 6:30pm and it feels as though it should be later.

And...just as I will get use to the time change, it'll be time to "spring ahead".

6:30? It's pitch black here at 4:30!

And yeah, with these new dates for Daylight Savings, we're on it more than we're off it!

Okay the good news on my car. We'd taken it to Walmart over the weekend to get the snow tires put on. While there, we needed a new air filter and they had a deal where they'd install it for free if you bought it there. DH had it done. Well, the next time I drove the car was when I first noticed the problem with the acceleration. Took it back to Walmart Monday night and asked if there was any chance that could be the cause. They glanced under the hood and assured me it was fin.

Took it to the dealer this morning and told them the deal. They called me a couple hours later saying that while they normally didn't say bad things about other service locations, Walmart had DEFINITELY screwed it up. They'd left one hose unattached and put another part in wrong. Dealer checked everything to make sure there weren't any other causes, and charged me $87. They nicely wrote up the receipt saying that it was caused by replacing the air filter incorrectly. Went back to Walmart and after a lot of red tape and hassle got my $87 back from them!

But with a car with 160K miles on it, I was expecting a whole lot more to be wrong. Glad it was Walmart's fault, glad I got the money back, and glad nothing more serious is wrong! (For now at least! ) DH was slightly disappointed as he spent some time last night looking at new cars "just in case" - yeah, you know how guys are!

Meanwhile, Stephen went to his musical meeting this afternoon. As I'd mentioned, he's been insisting he wants to do swim team. But now for sure they told him he can't do that and musical. And he found out today that the musical is "Grease", which he really likes. And he did his first jazz band practice yesterday. Both of which he can't do and swim. So now he's pretty much decided to give up on the swimming. Yeah, not having to get up 4 mornings a week (including Saturday) for 5 or 7 am practices is really upsetting me!

SO overall a slightly better day today! Hope everyone's (yours especially Rose!) improves tomorrow!

Wish I could say the same, Donald!! I will try, also, to remember I-65 to Orlando when . Hopefully I can get a flight with good prices. If Mac helps me I can get anything
Actually for us midnight people we only have one more day of work.. The person that follows me is likely to call in sick and I will be then forced to work 16 hours. Oh well, at least I have a job, for I feel bad for all the people without one

Have a great day everyone!

 

[marciemi]

Well, I used your website and it told me sunset today here is at 4:22! So I guess I'm not far off on my guess of 4:30. Looks like by mid-December it will be just a few minutes after 4. Yeah, that's depressing!

Donald - I've been really bored/tired at work too. Yesterday everyone was out and I did the old, elementary school "put your head down on your desk and close your eyes" thing! Luckily today's the last day of my work week!

Dark here is 4:36 pm ... and we've already had a couple inches of snow ... although it's melted now ... I'm sure more is on the way though
