Getting excited about my trip in August. My husband thinks i am crazy for wanting to go to Orlando all the time

.
But truthfully I feel like I need to be that far away to have a true vacation. As I don't have to worry about other family members tagging along. I work very hard to save for vacations and I don't want to share my husband, my children or my time. My children are now in their late teens and 20's and these last vacations before they are grown are very precious to me.

Nope, I am. DS 13 wants me to sneak him and his friends into that stupid movie Bruno. He told me that I'm not cool--as if that scares me.

It would scare me more if a teenage boy told me I WAS cool!

Hi, Jodie!!!

And everyone else. Just relaxing at home.

 

[marciemi]

i didn't censor movies for the boys when they were teens.
i figure they would sneak off with friend's older siblings to get in for the rated movies.

Our issue wasn't with the censoring of the movie (I don't think Harry Potter is an concern, is it?). We've also never really worried about what they watched (unless they were very young and watched something too scary and I ended up all night with them - but since I'm a big scaredy-cat, that would never happen unless they were at Grandma's or something).

The issue was that he had a class at 8am this morning and I didn't thing being out until 3am was the best thing. Even that I might have bent on but he couldn't give me any definite answers on who was driving, and none of his friends have licenses that allow them to drive between midnight and 5am and I sure wasn't going to get him at 3am either! Since he couldn't give me a definite "I'm going with (blank)'s mom" but more "Don't worry, someone will get me!", that's where it kind of fell apart for me!

Evening all...heading to bed to try to forget the LOUSY day at work I had!

Have a good evening!

i'm the opposite.
i live for my orlando vacations in the fall so i can leave the entire family behind....

i don't cook, clean, pick up after anyone and can eat ice cream for breakfast.

i have come to realize i can take them in small doses.....

how many more days on your countdown?
i count noses here and don't want to send the doggies out to find you if you aren't home....

Hi, Jodie!!!

And everyone else. Just relaxing at home.

i broke two nails.
that's all is what is happening here for me.

what did mom fix for dinner tonight?

Well call me crazy,but I went and bought my DS15 a dirtbike!!
I wish I had the camera when he popped the clutch and the bike went 30' while he landed on his A^*!!
Needless too say he broke off the rear fender,and wounded his pride in front of all his friends.Now he tries to take off and stall it evrytime.He will learn.But I coulda bought something smaller then A full blown 250 motocross.But I could'nt pass up the price..
Here is the short version of the story.I went and gave a bid on a new house.The people were fairly old,I took my time and talked with them.So the gentleman asked if I wanted to see his woodshop.I'm all into woodworking.As soon as I walked into his workshop I eyeballed this bike collecting dust in the corner.Sure he had every type of wood working tool you can think of,from a old wood lathe to a planer.So after talking for over a hour about the tools,i asked whats up with tha bike.He said it was his sons and he passed away 2yrs ago in Iraq.So I had to ask,do you want to get rid of it and he said yes but didn't know if it ran anymore.I said $250 he said $100.Done bought it.Got home checked it over put some gas in it and BAM it fired up and runs like a scalled dog..
Now my nieghbors are hating me..HEHEHE
I love riding it.So if you see someone in a fullbody cast at HHN,that will be me!!!

 

[Kimberlyfamilyfv]

We have 25 days til our vacation. And I'm looking forward to it. No cooking for me either.

 

[RAPstar]

Mac, actually I am cooking tonight. Making this basil pasta with sundried tomatoes. You're supposed to put chicken in it, but I don't have enough energy to get that far, lol.

One last post for the night,I swear.Is my avatar and siggie allitle overboard?Be honest.I will read your comments in the morning..

 

[Niki Andiokno]

Tanks for all the well wishes homies. Nice to know I can vent. Today I heard rumors of two insurance companies going under in Illinois. If you have Apollo or American Access, watch out. Just a rumor.

Evening all...heading to bed to try to forget the LOUSY day at work I had!

Have a good evening!

Here's a drink for ya. Pleasant Dreams, sweetie.

Mac, actually I am cooking tonight. Making this basil pasta with sundried tomatoes. You're supposed to put chicken in it, but I don't have enough energy to get that far, lol.

Yummie. I was lazy to cook tonight, so I picked up a pizza. Uncle Pete's stuffed with sausage, pepperoni, mushroom and onion. I swear I gained 10 lbs. just carrying it to the car, let alone eating it.

Nite, homies.

 

[RAPstar]

Ooh, Nicky. That pizza sounds good.

Yummie. I was lazy to cook tonight, so I picked up a pizza. Uncle Pete's stuffed with sausage, pepperoni, mushroom and onion. I swear I gained 10 lbs. just carrying it to the car, let alone eating it.

We did one of those "bake at home" pizzas for lunch. I took it out of the wrapper, preheated the oven, and a bit later told Matt to put it in the oven and set the timer for 10 minutes. A bit later (we were working on something on the computer) I asked him if the timer had gone off. He said no. A couple more minutes later I asked if he was sure he could hear it from where we were since I knew I couldn't. He insisted he could. Finally I asked (duh!) if he'd actually SET the timer! Oops. Anyone want some black pizza crust! Really though, we cut the crusts off and the rest of the pizza was okay.


Some good news though! Matt got his online update from the Department of Defense Medical boards and he is officially medically qualified for all three service academies as of today! Woo hoo! He was concerned about a back injury from soccer a couple seasons ago. I couldn't see how it could DQ him, but with things like that you just never know! So he's happy tonight!

what do you mean overboard?

i'm not into chucky.
the first movie, yes, i liked it, the other child's play was a big nothing for me.
but, it is a nice pose of chucky that you have.

pizza always sounds good to me.

ok, so matt screwed up on the timer......but on the other hand he passed the medical boards.

congrats to matt.
