Good afternoon all. I was going to opst earlier, but work got in the way:headache:

We had a great time in Lancaster. Got home about 8:30 last night and I am wiped :faint: Will post some pics later (probably as a min-update on my PTR).

I see I missed CE..hope you are having a good time.

Kristel - the patio looks great so far.

I missed where Jo was going:confused3

Deb - That's great about the job(s) for DH:cool1:

V, T, and LL are sooooo close to their trips:yay: Which means mine is not far away either:woohoo:

Rosie can't stay out of SUper WalMart:lmao:

And finally Dawn and Mel are MIA.:confused: Miss you guys---come back:hug:

:banana:
:woohoo: I can't wait!

I :love: Furniture shopping. Almost as much as I :love: having money in the bank. :laughing:
I hear ya! I hate to see the money depleting out of the building fund, but that's what it's there for! :thumbsup2

So he goes in and talks to his boss and he said he really wanted him to stay and offered him 3 work at home days a month, fulltime employee with full benefits, and a big bonus at the end of the year
That's awesome!

I was just going to ask how your trip was! ;)

It's hot as blazes here! Whew! :faint: I'm trying to keep the AC at 80, but the heat is just so intense! I don't know how I"m going to survive next week in FL! :laughing:

Anyway, just popped in to say HI! I'm off to the grocery store, where it's nice and cool! :teeth:
 
Holy quiet Fockers.

Kristel LOVE the tat! I need a new one!

Janet- Def still on for AC. We are only going Fri -> Sat but we are going!!!!! We have confirms from several people (philadisney, mymuse and hopefully pricessalways & tiggerfan4u of their bus fills up).


I should really be breading chicken cutlets but I am tired.

2 long days at work. My back is shot today. I feel hurt all over. I have to make chicken for the next 2 nights dinner. I'll get to it eventually. And the pasta to go with it. KC won't be home for a while so I'm moving slow.

I have a call in shift tomorrow. These shifts are for the birds! It's just in case someone calls out sick but jeez its annoying. Call 2 hours before your shift and if they say come in- rush tog et out of the house in time to make it there. Yeesh. But no shipment tomorrow so I pray I get a day of rest, my body needs it. Then it's one more day till my mini vacation (I'm off Thurs to Sun).

KC has a friend coming by tomorrow so he can build him a PC as well, so that means cleaning up tonight so my house is presentable. MEH.

Anywho I need to cook.

Hope everyone is doing ok!:grouphug:

:yay::yay: Will text or email later in the week to finalize plans!:woohoo:
 

:wave2:

It sounds like everyone is doing pretty well from the little that ive read.:goodvibes

Todays my first day alone in the new apartment. Long day at work and class, but now i get to relax for a bit. Oh wait ive got 3 lectures to copy and more boxes to unpack.:rolleyes: all in all not too bad. Marc left for the week this morning and i finally get to keep the puppy here with me full time.

The puppy is doing really well and we finally got a crate to train her with. I couldnt afford one, but my moms friend happen to have one she was getting rid of. Plenty big and the price tag on it says $140! I was pretty excited to be given it for free.

So right now i'm broke like normal, but i havent been to the grocery store in over 1 1/2 months. My fridge has some condiments, 2 eggs, creamer, about 1 cup of milk, 1 slice of cheese and a couple slices of lunchmeat. thats it. I have 1 more cut of beef. The same type of beef ive been eating for the past 2 weeks, and my choice of either rice or pasta, no sauce. :headache: I think i have some oatmeal too, or I could drink my last can of chicken broth. :rotfl: Yup thats all of my food. Getting pretty tired of the same thing, but i only have to make that last until saturday.:yay:
 
Good Evening All!
Where is everyone!?


V is 10 days from the Magic. :woohoo: I'm so excited for you!!!

ROSIE is sleeping well. Lots of work. You needed a good night's sleep! I think you have good taste in sewing kits!

DEB’s DH has accepted the new job. But when he told the other employer, things got more interesting. They want to keep him in a bad way that is good for them! She thinks Chi has a crush on someone.:rolleyes1 YAY! On the new offer. To answer your question: I have 4 tattoos.

JANET had a great time in Lancaster. She was pooped though. I’m glad you had a good time. CE went to a vacation home on a lake up north, I think. Family is joining them in a few days.

T says it’s too dang hot in Cali. Yep, you better get your sweat production up to snuff for FL!

KAT is hurting. She is “on-call” for tomorrow. She is hoping they won’t need her. She will be at AC Friday and Saturday. I hope you get a break tomorrow too!

I'm glad you are all moved. Sorry about the food situation. I can remember that cheap pizza and mac & cheese were a must. It was a good thing that I worked at a Mexican restaurant that would feed us for free.
Score on the kennel! That is awesome! It just makes things so much easier.
Did you already get your computer hooked up and running? I didn't think you'd be here for a couple of days.
:thumbsup2

Thanks for the compliments on the tat and my patio.

I get to work until Wed. Then I'm off Thurs and Fri. I'm working OT on Saturday night. Then my shift is Sun, Mon and Tue. So no plans for this weekend. Fun, fun!
Of course then Rockie will be in town on the 1st and 2nd. I decided to take some vacation days on that weekend. It all evens out, I guess.

Hugs to all of you, even the MIA Fockers!!!!
 
ya im not scheduled to get my internet and cable activated until saturday, but right now im leeching off an unsuspecting unprotected router.
 
Hi everyone! :wave: Our yard people cut the phone line over the weekend so we had no phone or internet. :headache: Actually no phone wasn't that bad. ;) Not much going on here today except finishing up the laundry and ironing so I hope to be around to catch up. :goodvibes

Oh no, I would have been crazy. Phone is ok since we have cells, but no internet. I think Jimmy would drive me crazy because he wouldn't be able to play his Playhouse Disney online games:scared:

-------------------------------------------------

Good morning all. THe weather is carppy here. It is raining. No, not just raining think Fay type downpours:scared: I was walking from the car to work and the wind was blowing toward my back. My whole backside is soaked, and no I am sitting in AC:sad2:

Busy day at work. We have an auditor coming in for one of our grants...fun, fun, fun:eek: and in the midst of all this I am trying to learn my new job which starts next Monday. Yeah, I love my job:rolleyes1

Hope everyone has a great day!:goodvibes:grouphug:
 
V, T, and LL are sooooo close to their trips:yay: Which means mine is not far away either:woohoo:
::yes:: Wooo hooo!!! :woohoo:

It's hot as blazes here! Whew! :faint: I'm trying to keep the AC at 80, but the heat is just so intense!
I hear ya on the AC - mine is set at 78 and struggling to to keep the actual temp below 80. :faint:
I don't know how I"m going to survive next week in FL! :laughing:
Many frosty poolside beverages! :thumbsup2

V, T, and LL: MK hours extended for August. Check it out!
Eek! No changes on UG yet - here's hoping crowd levels stay low-ish!

Todays my first day alone in the new apartment.
I totally missed the new apt. - congrats!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Good morning! Leo's off to another day of Nature Camp and I'm... stuck at work. I'm beyond ready for a vacation.

Which, conveniently, is coming up in 6 Fuzzy Days! :woohoo::yay::banana:

I'm getting everything together for work while I'm gone now, and spitting out Ridemax plans. Last night, I worked out with the Sadistic Wii Trainer and wrote down a few workouts to take on the trip.

Nothing else new. Just waiting... :rolleyes1
 
Jo, I'm listening to your lovely voice on the Disney Brit podcast, finally. You don't sound silly. :goodvibes You're talking about British-isms now.

I miss you. :hug:
Awww thanks sweetie :hug: DEBRA if you go to itunes and search Disney Brit Podcast it's episode 19 and I think about 40 minutes in :thumbsup2

I checked and there are tix left for the 11/29 MVMCP. I'm so excited, will talk to my boss this week (he's off tomorrow). If he says yes, even to only half a day on Monday I'm going for it. I want to see the World at Christmas.
Wooohooo didn't think you could last that long without a visit :rotfl2:

Anyone else find it funny i get the aisle with the purses in it?
They know you well :rotfl2:

Wow, it's quiet around here with Janet, CE and Jo gone. :lmao: J/K!
Hey :mad: :rotfl2:

Here's a preview of the patio.
Looks good and wow on your tat all I can ever think when I see tattoos is how much that must have hurt, yep I'm a wimp :rotfl2:

So he goes in and talks to his boss and he said he really wanted him to stay and offered him 3 work at home days a month, fulltime employee with full benefits, and a big bonus at the end of the year :yay:
Wow fantastic, hope he comes to a decision soon :goodvibes

I missed where Jo was going:confused3
My Dad's, home about Friday/Saturday

Todays my first day alone in the new apartment.
Yay you're in, hope you settle in quick!



Had an eventful morning, my Dad had to have an op on his ear yesterday and had to stay in overnight. I went to pick him up this morning at a new hospital and it had about 8 different entrances, I eventually found his ward but he'd gone so I searched and searched and couldn't find him, was beginning to wonder if he was related to T ;) :rotfl2: I was driving out to go around to the other side of the hospital again and there he is walking back in. He'd decided to walk to meet me but I'd come in a different way. 55 minutes I was searching the hospital for :faint: He only came back because it started raining and he realised he'd left his towel at the hospital, he had walked several miles and this is after he was put to sleep yesterday and shouldn't have been doing anything :sad2: He won't rest now he's been digging up potatoes and stuff :rotfl2:

Not sure when I'll check in next and haven't been keeping up on FB either, have noticed no Mel or Dawn though :sad1:
 
He won't rest now he's been digging up potatoes and stuff

Men:headache:

=============================

I'm back. Where is everyone:confused3 Crazy busy at work. 2 meetings and the audit today. JImmy had a dentist appointment, he has two cavities:sad2:

I did get my hair appointment and Jimmy's haircut appointments scheduled today. One more thing checked off the things to do to get ready for the trip list:yay:

BBL:goodvibes
 
Bonjour!

Hope everybody is doing well and enjoying their summers. :goodvibes

It has been work, work, work for me. When I am not at work you will most likely find me at home watching Dexter with Erich, he has introduced me to the show, we are currently on season 2. I really like it!

On Monday we are all making the 7 hour drive to Toledo to visit with family for my birthday so that should be fun. We also plan on making a stop at the Toronto Zoo on the way there or on the way back. We haven't been in several years and it is a fantastic zoo.

Then in a months time Alek, Erich and I are jetting off to British Columbia to visit with Dad and Grandma. Where has the summer gone? It is flying by so quickly! There is a huge forest fire occurring right now about an hour away from where my Dad lives, right near the town that we are flying into. Here's hoping that the airport doesn't get damaged! Also hoping that not too many homes are lost. :sad2:

Sounds like fun. Jim and I were talking about different things to do next summer and TOronto came up in the conversation. He wasnts to see the hockey hall of fame. (I've already been, but will to go again). If we decide to, you will definitely have to give me more ino on the zoo!:thumbsup2

I will keep good thoughts for them Lessa.

This summer is flying isn't it. I just made a doctor's appointment for Jim and said write your appointment on the calander for next Friday. I can't believe it's the end of July already:sad2:

===========================================

Home from work. Jim made sausage and pierogies for dinner. Jimmy is watching Lilo and Stitch 2 - Stitch has a Glitch, so I thought I'd check in here. Tried to call my mom for her birthday, but she's not home. If I know them, they are at EPCOT having dinner.:thumbsup2
