Team Focker Watch Chat - in the 11th Hour

[Miz Diz]

Mary, is it time to break out the duct tape?

I did consider it, but it would cover too much of my screen.

 

[HomeschoolMama]

For ?

I almost asked too, Jen, but the user name OMG retards made me think I didn't really care... I did click on the user info and the person joined today and posted a bunch of quick replies on several boards all within a few minutes. So, whatev.

We don't have an alarm; didn't think we needed one. I'll be making some phone calls tomorrow.

Stay safe! Whoever it was probably knew she wasn't able to defned herself and had something worth taking. That's so sad.

Welcome back, Mary!

I should have never friended the two "friends" on FB. I haven't seen them in ages and I don't want to. now, there's a group of 4 that are e-mailing (and including me) trying to get a lunch date together. I don't want to say, "Hey, there's a reason you're in my past and I want you to stay there," but I just don't know what to do. I hate to be ugly, but I'd rather spend my time focusing on the friends I have in my life now, not girls who I have nothing common with and I haven't seen in over 12 years.

[debraW76]

but my whole passenger side scraped up against the brink wall

Someone broke into DH car last night. He was downtown having a drink with college friends and came out to a smashed in passenger window.

How did the game go?

Have fun, where will you go?

To the children's museum in the city I hate.

Ugh. I'm feeling queasy again.

Feel better hun and congrats for the DVC price change and closing

The girls bus didn't come and they have exams

the pjs wouldn't bother me if all i was doing was dropping them off and not getting out of the car. I would have put on lipstick though

Ellie's sports day was today and it was lovely, she did really well,

Great! also great about the 6am ressies!!

I am pleased with their teacher assignments, though - they are basically right across the hall from their current classrooms,

Thats good

what are you doing to celebrate?

We went to the children's museum and to the imax theatre

DH and I love watching The Soup on E!,

We watch that too! And yikes about the pool drama

Errr if you say so, to me they're all just American

Good luck with the mouse. We finally got rid of all of ours

We are doing the Mel dinner flip - breakfast for dinner. I have to get back upstairs and get cookin'!

We love breakfast for dinner. Hope your review went well.

Nope, I didn't develop an intolerance for milk, etc until right after I had Jimmy

Hope your van is fixed pronto

Focker friends.....I'm a little freaked out right now. I thought I lived in a relatively safe area.

http://www.wral.com/news/local/story/5415648/

See the map? We live at the "k" in the word "Creek."

Yikes. Be careful I have friends who live in Cary.

but I have to tell you about this one lady.

Some people!

Judy is doing great !! Loosing more weight and eeling very good about herself!!

That's great

Just tell them that you are really busy and as a result are currently not taking applications for new friends.
j/k of course.

 

[Muffinygood]

I grew up in the midwest and had never heard that. The first time someone asked me where the bubbler was, I had NO idea what they wanted.

LOL. I remember the first time I asked someone in IL where you could go to get a grinder.

And did the people in Peoria think you were nuts? :

I'm pretty sure the vasectomy K had over 6 years ago took care of that, but if it didn't the hysterectomy I had last year sure did!

That would truly be a miracle! LOL (Not to mention something of a shock!)

I updated my PTr..Hint HInt for those who haven't come over to read yet

I don't know when I'll make it over, Janet. Sorry!

To all the others who share my jammie phobia Thank you!!Why I would worry about that and have NO problem wearing a Tiara in Epcot is beyond me, but isn't that what phobias are

Hmmmm. I don't think wearing a tiara in Epcot is odd at all. That's probably why we love you!

I did consider it, but it would cover too much of my screen.

OMGosh, Mary! I'm so glad you're back!

************
YEAH, so what's with this "OMGretards" person? What an offensive screenname.

It's going to be 94 degrees today. Whoa. Bob was a doll and took SD to his class so I could relax this morning. Such a sweetheart. Around 11 I will drop off Gus' friend at his house and then we'll head over to the pool. I have a crazy busy day today. Pick up SD at 3, dentist for me at 4, then clean the house (can't do it tomorrow, have to see Dr. Seigle....UGH) and then drive SD to tennis at 6:30 pm.

Hope you guys are all well.

Oh, and Dawn, I told you just ignore them.

MEL

 

[PrincessV]

Morning! Nothing really to report... I'm at work, Leo's at camp, yada-yada-blah-blah-blah....

Oh wait! It RAINED!!!

We finally got a good soaking last night (complete with 50mph winds, strobe-like lightning and a Leo coming in my room at 1am to say "That lightning woke me up and I'm not happy!), and the temp this morning was a significantly cooler 77! However, it no longer feels like an oven out there... it feels like a rice steamer. Yay summer.

 

[DisneyJo]

Cover your ears, Mickey...

Jo's a mouse killer!!!! ​

​

OMG Dawn

Thanks for the info. on ADRs. I'll still check at midnight though

Hey don't you believe me

I remember the first time you called, you said I didn't sound as American as you expected. I'll go with being honorary British, then.

Sounds better than our blueberrry bush. I think we've had 2 dozen blueberries in 4 years

Wow that's a lot Good news about the insurance too!

JANET!
Shut yer mouth! No b-a-b-y talk!

I'm pretty sure the vasectomy K had over 6 years ago took care of that, but if it didn't the hysterectomy I had last year sure did!

Focker friends.....I'm a little freaked out right now. I thought I lived in a relatively safe area.

Oh no, stay safe!

Ok - I should have said earlier that DH's car was broken into last night and the window was smashed and the only things taken were a pain of sunglasses and his iphone charger. They left everything else... including a checkbook.

Phew thank goodness!

There were some grumpy people at Disney.

Wow it doesn't sound as though she was very magical

To all the others who share my jammie phobia Thank you!!Why I would worry about that and have NO problem wearing a Tiara in Epcot is beyond me, but isn't that what phobias are

I wouldn't go out in my jammies either Rosie

Just ignore it all Dawn, you're very busy and can't make any of their meets can you!!!

Good luck with the mouse. We finally got rid of all of ours

We got him, how many did you catch in the end?



Well apparently chocolate spread works I went and had a look this morning and the traps were empty but David had found and disposed of him already

I know what you mean! I said at the beginning that FB mixes parts of my life that I really didn't want mixed!

LOL. I remember the first time I asked someone in IL where you could go to get a grinder.

I remember my first day on the job in CT when 2 teens asked me where to get a grinder and I blushed and stammered that I had no idea! (it was a week later when I realized they meant a sub)

. I don't think wearing a tiara in Epcot is odd at all.

Me neither.......on next Focker meet......everyone needs an Epcot tiera!

 

[debraW76]

We got him, how many did you catch in the end?

I think 11.

I think I am going to cry. My manager just told me he turned in his two week resignation. He is going to work for the FAA. He is not excited about the job but feels it will be better for his family (he is currently driving 75 minutes each way and is working 10 hours a day with two weeks vacation which he never takes).

I'm upset because even though he gets on my nerves sometimes, he really is a great supervisor, mentor, and friend. Plus I am worried about whom they might hire as a replacement. I have a bit of a smart mouth and can't just work for anyone. I may have to be nice on a daily basis!

That's an understatement!

YEAH, so what's with this "OMGretards" person? What an offensive screenname.

You know me, I clicked on the link to see if it was a real person and it was a site (with the same name) with Jacka$$ type videos. He's probably just posting on all the boards to get people over to his site.

Oh, and Dawn, I told you just ignore them.

MEL

I know... but the e-mails... I hate to lead them to think I'm interested in joining them.

Just ignore it all Dawn, you're very busy and can't make any of their meets can you!!!

Why, yes, Jo I am...

BTW- You're lucky you didn't catch a fat lady spreading chocolately spread on those traps. I'm glad I don't live close enough to drive over!

 

[Miz Diz]

OMG Dawn

Good to know that mice like chocolate, too.

[cmp1111]

Well talked to the insurance company. Looks like it's not going to be a problem to get the van fixed and they will give me a cheap rental until it is done! Jim is going to take it in on Friday.

Oh, good.

I'm pretty sure the vasectomy K had over 6 years ago took care of that, but if it didn't the hysterectomy I had last year sure did!

You would certainly think!

Focker friends.....I'm a little freaked out right now. I thought I lived in a relatively safe area.

I understand. It's been a couple of years ago now, but when we were in IL, someone decided to try to break into my neighbor's house - when her son was home sick from school and alone for about 30 minutes, tops while she went to get her younger DS from kindergarten (the kid home was 11). He called the police, and they caught the guys. But still - I've never figured out why they didn't come to my house - where the newspaper guys DID NOT stop the delivery as I asked, so there were papers piled up, etc.

Ok - I should have said earlier that DH's car was broken into last night and the window was smashed and the only things taken were a pain of sunglasses and his iphone charger.

Well, I guess that's good. Weird, but good.

There were some grumpy people at Disney.

My goodness!

TJudy is doing great !! Loosing more weight and eeling very good about herself!!

That's great!

I am so close I can leave at 8:55a and be on time

That's my kind of commute!

To the children's museum in the city I hate.

Fun...

I have a crazy busy day today. Pick up SD at 3, dentist for me at 4, then clean the house (can't do it tomorrow, have to see Dr. Seigle....UGH) and then drive SD to tennis at 6:30 pm.

Gee, sounds like fun. Let us know about Dr. Seigle...

However, it no longer feels like an oven out there... it feels like a rice steamer. Yay summer.

Frankly, I think I'd prefer the oven, but I know you needed the rain.

Well apparently chocolate spread works I went and had a look this morning and the traps were empty but David had found and disposed of him already

Good to know! We've had some in the basement (only, thank goodness) this spring, but our Terminix guy puts in sticky traps. The bad thing about that is that I don't always know where he's put them, and then I find them randomly when they don't smell so good.

I remember my first day on the job in CT when 2 teens asked me where to get a grinder and I blushed and stammered that I had no idea! (it was a week later when I realized they meant a sub)

Aw, I'm so sorry.

*******************************************************
Well... Nothing much going on here. It's 65 and raining (again) and D is feeling well enough that he just left for his meeting. The boys have dentist appointments in the afternoon (I made the appointment in December, so I wasn't TRYING to make the first day of vacation not so much fun. )

Still reading the Edwards point of view of Twilight. I have about 100 pages to read and it will be over. I know I'm going to going nuts not being about to read the rest. Anyone know when she's planning on coming out with the book in it's entirety?

KAT & Lessa? Do our resident Twilight fan club girls know?


Raining here. DS has swimming at 1. Thank goodness it's inside, I guess.

Sorry to say she has no plans to release the rest at this moment. She was really upset when somebody leaked the copy she had already written online so she has said that for now she has no plans. As someone had said on another thread, she'll probably release it when she starts wanting another big pay cheque.

 

[HomeschoolMama]

Ya'll are really cracking me up this morning. Thanks! I need it cause I'm not feeling well.

I'm glad you say y'all too. Mel makes fun of me. But then she says things like "grind-uh".

 

[DisneyJo]

I think 11.

OMG!!!! And so sorry about your manager but really only 2 weeks vacation? How did h survive?

Ewwwww!


I posted this on FB but I'm off tonight to watch firemen play with their hoses, yep seriously I am, they're going to be showing us their water hoses It's a Guide trip so nothing naughty about it!!!!
