Happy birthday to me...
Happy birthday to me...
Happy birthday to me-eee.
I'm goin' to Diz-nee!!!! ​

See you all next Tuesday! ​

Classic!

Have a Magical Birthday Dawn!!!!!!​

Jo: Yes I was too

Rosie: Cataflam--my mom swears by it It's pricey but worth it.

*****************************************

So I had Sunday off. Slept in awhile, then helped my mom clean the house then we went out to eat.

I have meetings in the morning and then work at night . If I would've known we were going to have meetings I wouldn't have switched. Oh well.

3 more days for me!!!

Hi Rosie! Love the 3rd degree for Steph's boy friend.

Hi Z! Ah, the perils of the night crew.

I forget who posted the original story about the girl who got hit by the scooter and died. Here's a retraction that's been posted. It's still sad. - My Sister

 

[LurrrvtheDuck]

Did I beat Mel?

Morning everyone!

So remember how I posted that I had meetings this morning?

Well I really couldn't sleep so I forced myself to sleep around 4am for a few hours. Set my alarm, closed my eyes for my few hours and I woke up a little while ago....at 7:20am. My meeting starts at 7:30am. Traffic on a Monday morning is horrendous at 7:00am. So guess who's not going to her meetings......


....That ECV story still looks weird. Something doesn't sound right in the follow up explanation. Still sad.

 

[Muffinygood]

I quoted yesterday but with all the DIS doings I've lost them....

I did read everything though! Sounds like all is well out in Fockerland. It was nice to see you, TE!

I'm leaving EARLY Wed. morning for my trip. I spent the weekend getting laundry, groceries, meals ready, packing and doing errands. Leaving the boys home for 4 days requires ALOT of planning.

Today I have to finish paying my bills, clean the bunny cage (blech), marinate the steak for tonight, go to the bank, go to the gym and color my hair. I'm definitely going to be ready when Wednesday gets here!!!!

Have a great day everyone!

MEL

Good morning, Friends!

This is just a drive-by post since I've got a crazy day planned. Gotta run to two different banks (order cash for Friday's festival at school and deposit cookie money) and then work at DD7's class at school. Then, I'm going to the gym. I'll try to check in later this afternoon.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Happy Birthday Dawn!!!​

(even though I didn't catch her before she left.....)

Morning, all!

We had a nice day yesterday - looking for boats in the snow.

But, we e-mailed an offer on one last night. The guy that Dave had talked to on Saturday was the real salesman. The guy who they had there yesterday (still slow season, just started being open on Sundays for the year) was the web guru/manager guy, but he wasn't as knowledgeable about the actual boats. So, he said we should still give an offer to the salesguy from Saturday.

Anyway, we made an offer, contingent on some stuff being done, and getting a deal on the valet service to keep it on the lake. We'll see.

It's beautiful inside, but the outside is kind of faded - looks like it was kept on the water, with the canvas cover on, but in the heat of the sun, the exterior got kind of blasted.

It has an onboard port-a-potty! But it seats 10 people and is big and lovely inside.

Anyway, we're excited.

D is off to Poland and Istanbul through Thursday night. My mom is coming in on Friday afternoon.

I have another tennis match on Wed., along with my normal classes on T/Th, so I'm glad that today I have nothing much to do. I have to do some laundry, and it wouldn't hurt me to work on the house, since I didn't do anything to it this weekend.

Oh, and my Kindle absolutely SHOULD arrive today! But most people on Friday who got theirs got it UPS 2nd Day Air, and that won't come here until 4:30. They were on the west coast (where amazon.com's headquarters are) and so I think surely mine will come then, today.

I'm sorry I missed Dawn, but I hope you have a happy birthday and a great trip.

to everyone. I read through but didn't quote - bad CE.

I'll be around! No DH=more DIS time. Have a happy Monday!

 

[Hedy]

Happy birthday, Dawn!

 

[PrincessV]

Morning! Looks like I picked the right weekend to not DIS - I gather teh DIS was doing strange things?

A friend from Buff. was down here for a conference last week and she came to stay the weekend with me, so that kept me busy. I also got a new iphone Sat., which also kept me busy, lol!

A belated "Welcome!" to Sam - I'm V, mother to 7yo Leo and FL resident. Nice to meet you!

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, can someone please remove the dark cloud hanging over me!

Mo! I'm so sorry - things have GOT to improve soon!

Hello!!???? Anybody here? Are you still my friends???

Of course! It's good to see you!

Let's play Where in the World is Jen!

Austin, Texas

Ack! Are you in WDW now? Hope you guys have a wonderful time!


Happy Monday all!

 

[PrincessV]

Happy Bday Dawn!!!

 

[jcc0621]

Sounds like the beginning of a plan....I will have to speak to KC about getting a weekend off.

I would just avoid 4th of July Weekend Other than that we have no real plans scheduled for the summer yet

http://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/ele/1084275791.html Thats the link to the carp!

Will check it out.

I'm Home...

And NOBODY is HERE !!!

See you ladies in the Morning

Sorry, the Dis was Sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow after it came back online!

Rockie got mad at the CM that was dressing us. She was kind of pushy, like she was in a hurry. She looked at me and said that my hair matched the era OK. Then she looked at Rockie and told her hers wasn't right but there was nothing she could do.

I will have to see if I can find ours. It's around somewhere!

We got ours done at the Lake Buena Vista Village near what is now the Boardwalk.

We got ours on Main Street in what is now the Kodak Exposition Hall on the right when you come under the bridge!

This so is weird to have so little to catch up on!! Big news today was Steph's "Boy" Friend came over and DSIL met him forthe first time his best buddy even came over too to check him out !! First question "How are you doing in school"??? Then "Do you belong to a Gang"????I was cracking up !!! Steph as ready to kill the pair of them!!!!But he must have answered all the questions okay cuz DSIL sad he was wecome back!!

Happy birthday to me...

Cool. Hope it works out!

D is off to Poland and Istanbul through Thursday night. My mom is coming in on Friday afternoon.

That's a long way to travel for 4 days.

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

Back for another crazy busy day/week at work. Not much planned. Jimmy gets his report today, so I am a little anxious about that. I will let you all know how he did! Other than that I will be checking in when I get a chance.

Have a good day/week everyone

Very strange, not sure what to think, so sorry for the OP though!

Well I really couldn't sleep so I forced myself to sleep around 4am for a few hours. Set my alarm, closed my eyes for my few hours and I woke up a little while ago....at 7:20am. My meeting starts at 7:30am. Traffic on a Monday morning is horrendous at 7:00am. So guess who's not going to her meetings......

Whoops

It has an onboard port-a-potty! But it seats 10 people and is big and lovely inside.

Sounds great hope the kindle comes soon!!!



Dave and I went and played golf today, for a change, I've been chosen for the scratch team for my club and we're playing on Sunday so we went to the other course to have a practise. It was a very boring course though, very flat and up and down straight holes

 

[DisneyJo]

Have you all seen the new DIS rules? No discussion is now allowed about politics or religion. Not quite sure how far that goes for example OMG but it does say no political stuff in siggies etc. Read Here!

I have no problem with the rule as I learned long ago they were "HOT" topics , we can still talk about what we all love the most DISNEY !!!
On another subject Who has KIDNAPPED the Tag Fairy she must be kidnaped or by now I would have a Tag !!! Tag Fairy I'll pay your RANSOM!!!

ANYwhere??? That would eliminate 98% of the Community Boards, lol!

 

[1Princess1Prince2006]

I thought I had posted earlier this morning but I guess it didn't go through. UGH!

Hope your all having a good Monday. Mine has sucked so far due to my ex. The kids were gone with him this entire weekend but he freaking drove me crazy with all these text messages. I had no plans for this morning so all I wanted to do was sleep in this morning but that didn't happen thanks to the ******* and his texts. Thank god he's leaving this afternoon.

Not much else going on here. Have a good day everyone!

 

[cmp1111]

Sounds great hope the kindle comes soon!!!

On our reviewer thread, people are getting them, even here on the East Coast. I am very hopeful, as my UPS guy doesn't come until later. I didn't expect him yet, anyway.

I'm glad you got to go out, even if it was boring.

Wow! Somebody better tell JenM when she gets back...

I thought I had posted earlier this morning but I guess it didn't go through. UGH!

I had terrible times with the DIS this morning. I had stuff all quoted and then it just died on me.

Not much else going on here. Have a good day everyone!

I'm sorry it's been hard. Hope the rest of the day is better.

So, V, is the iPhone worth it? I have this birthday money that would cover most of one, or I can use it for books for the Kindle. The Kindle has a "basic" web browser and speakers that can play music whilst I read, so I'm not sure if the iPhone is necessary. On the other hand, when we go skiing or whatever, I probably wouldn't bring the Kindle, but would still like the web capabilities of the iPhone for weather, maps, etc. And I would like a better phone for texting...

Tell me what to do!
*****************************************************
I ran out and went to the post office to mail the Mass tax stuff. When I got home, I had a new big car-type magnet from the Disney Mom's Club. I guess for applying for the Panel, they put me in the Club. Anyone else get one?

I did mop the bathroom and have done a bunch of laundry, but mostly now I'm addicted to that darn Bejeweled game on FB. Thanks, Jo.

I've had to new iphone for almost a year now and it changed my life. If your a compulsive planner or like to take notes its great as a planner and notepad, but it also does everything else too. I read all of the twilight books on my phone. I was able to download and application and just drop the files. Then dont forget theres the ipod too. Great to listen to your dis unplugged podcast in the car.
