Team Focker Watch: Lucky Number 13!

[PrincessV]

Poor T's second flight was delayed - they won't get in to Orlando till late.

I'm packed, car loaded, nails painted, and ready to roll! We're checking in/dropping off luggage, then having lunch with my brother (he's in Orlando now.) After that, it's full on vacation! Time to pack up the laptop, so I'll catch you all next from The World.

Our fence was finally started this morning. The wood was on back order, so it took longer than expected. How old am I that I'm excited about a fence? It will look great though.

Not old. Because if that makes you old, then I am ancient because we are getting our patior repointed and I am thrilled

That's about it from me. How sad, isn't it? My mother is still at my sister's and Mitch is still gone.

I am getting my hair done tomorrow [/QUOTE}

I'm getting mine cut tomorrow too. I can't wait

I got soaked today, not on the golf course but running from the car to the club house, luckily it stopped before we started I didn't play fantastically, I always try too hard in these things but we did come 4th, guess how many prizes? Yep 3 It was a nice day though and my guest had fun

Congrats Jo!

Tomorrow is the semi final of our clubs summer knockout so fingers crossed!

Luck

Have a fantastic time.

Did you see the photos I posted a few years ago from the Tour de France when it came past?

How did I miss that? How cool!

Of course!

It's the little things.



The fence guys have actually worked all day! What a concept. My back neighbor came out this morning telling them they were being too loud because she was trying to sleep. The owner of the fence company kindly told her he sent a letter. Of course she says she didn't get it. Well she rents, so the homeowner got it and never told her. She was also difficult when we had the trees trimmed which are actually her's on our proprerty. She said they could only cut what was on our side of the fence. Ok, if you want your trees pruned improperly.

She sounds like a lovely neighbor

Hey all. It's Wednesday Mom and dad left Florida at 5:00amish. The goal is to be mid-way through Virginia by dinner time. They are going to call when they stop for the night. Can't wait to see them, especially since they still have most of my clothes and my suitcase from last year

Just trying to get through the rest of this week of getting Jimmy to bed regular time and getting up for camp. Poor kid really needs his summer vacation.

Jim has to take his car in for inspection, so he is vehicleless today. He will probably just chill for the rest of the day.

That's it on this end. Hope you all have a Happy Wednesday

 

[englishrose47]

Good Morning !!! I have to take the girls to the dentist and then go to work !! My desk is actually quite clean !! Not too much to be done !!! So could be another great day !!

 

[askelton]

She thinks we are awesome and has already said we can do another Disney trip next year !!

You are awesome!

Mom and dad left Florida at 5:00amish.

I still can't believe they drive all that way in one day. It may have something to do with the fact that my dad worked for the airlines and we never drove.

Can't wait to see them, especially since they still have most of my clothes and my suitcase from last year

I so would not like to have my clothes gone that long.


I just realized I'm going to NC next week. Guess I should think about what I'm going to pack, but I have no idea what I'll be doing whilst I'm there. As usual I'm sure I'll pack too much.

 

[DisneyJo]

How did I miss that? How cool!

Here are some photos.

The carnival that came through before the race --

The finally after many hours of waiting the cyclists came through, they were in 1 huge group and literally were past in about 30 seconds

And 1 lone one at the back

What a PITA!

Woooohoooo

Yay, hope they travel safely

No more items on the to do list?

I won my match today so I'm now in the final I beat her really easy that I started to feel guilty which is crazy right? I did play well though, after 9 holes I was only 1 over par I need to play last years Lady Captain in the final and give her about 20 shots I need to play well then too

 

[cmp1111]

Hi, all!

Just skimmed this page - don't remember, again, when I was last here. Sunday was all day at the club. Monday was two tennis classes, karate, then Deb & her DD's for an unexpected dinner date . Yesterday was all day on the boat, taking two cars so that I could come home by myself to play a tennis match for my "play up" team at 8:00 (yep, that's p.m...)

We lost. Then, this morning I had a haircut (just a trim) and then played a tennis class, then we went to Target and the library. Tomorrow we have NOTHING planned - I turned down two tennis things and we're just going to do stuff here. Phew!

Hope all the Fockers in WDW are having fun! Hope everyone else is having a nice week.

Janet - of course, just pass the stuff along. Sorry about that, though!

Way to go! Thanks for the TdF pics. I've heard that you wait and wait and then it's all over like that. Still cool though. Where were they taken?

Of course you need a rest day.

Sounds like you need it, relax and enjoy

CONGRATS!!

Thanks

Thanks and it was literally about 5 miles up the road

 

[TEminnie]

Hi friends!

I'm getting close to getting my pics uploaded and will start a TR--A Redneck's Guide to Paris!

Jo---I think it's funny they are sitting on bikes whilst on a truck! That's very American!

 

[TEminnie]

Dang...I'm missing the Italy TR----can anyone send me the pages?? Cause I'm lazy!

 

[Disneyland_Mama]

Hi Girls!

We finally made it in last night... I think we checked in around 9:30 or 10pm and not in bed until well after midnight. Ugh! I will never fly Continental again! Well not unless they have SUPER cheap flights.

The weather was wonderful today! There was a nice thin layer of clouds and I do believe I felt a decent breeze. It did pour this evening, but naturally because Fockers were meeting in Epcot, right? We found V and Leo in England and we're anxiously awaiting LL & Kate's arrival in the next day.

I did read the last page....

Congrats, Jo!

Angela - I get excited for goofy stuff like that, too! See you on Saturday!

Janet - Are you serious? You never had your suitcases sent back? Have a great time with you parents.

Hi CE, Rosie, Mo, TE ... that was TE, right? Sorry, if I missed anyone!

Off to bed, I'm exhausted! AK tomorrow.

 

[lazydoxy66]

Hello!


ANGELA celebrated another birthday with Reid and some of his friends at Gymboree. She said it was for them. She is getting the new fence put up. The neighbor at the back complained.

Go figure on the neighbor. Being in the country does have it’s perks when it comes to those kind of things. I hope you are happy with the fence when it is done. Hey, get packing for your get-away!

JANET said it was hot the other day. Her parents will be in town on Thursday.

The ancient A/C in our office broke about a month ago. The assured us they are getting bids for a new one. Let’s just say, it has not been pleasant.

JO said it was hot there too. She and D walked and drank their lunch at a pub. They also putted around. She made it to the finals in golf.

I hope you do/did well.

ROSIE is busy. She is getting very excited about her escort trip in October.

Honestly, if you had nothing to do, would you know what to do with yourself?

V is at WDW. She said T’s second flight was delayed.

I’m sure she was worth the wait!

CE has been dining, tennising, karateing, and boating.

Why do I always feel so tired after I read your posts? I’m glad you are having fun with the exception of the tennis loss. Get ‘em next time.

T made it to WDW after a very long wait.

Good to know you made it. Better late than never. (Is that a good thing to say to someone who had to fly??)

TE is back from Paris.

Welcome home! I think Mo’s trip report is at posts # 1370, 1396, 1398, 1453, 1512, 1567.

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

No big doings here. I’m just whittling down my to-do list. I’ll be in town most of tomorrow doing errands and PT for Doug. The weather here is going to be very nice for the next few days!!! Too bad I get to spend the 4th at work.

Have a safe and happy holiday!!!

 

[lazydoxy66]

Jo - you have a safe and happy weekend!!!!!!!

 

[jcc0621]

I still can't believe they drive all that way in one day. It may have something to do with the fact that my dad worked for the airlines and we never drove.

Mom doesn't mind flying, it's just that she likes to have a car when she is here. Not that between my brothers and I we don't have 5 cars and she couldn't borrow one

I so would not like to have my clothes gone that long.

Luckily it was mostly shorts and summer stuff so I haven't realley needed it before now

I just realized I'm going to NC next week. Guess I should think about what I'm going to pack, but I have no idea what I'll be doing whilst I'm there. As usual I'm sure I'll pack too much.

What are you going there for????

COngrats and Good Luck

It must have just been the cut, because the size is the same on all of them

Oh I can't wait to hear all about this!

Poor kiddos must have been exhausted

and thanks!

Off to bed, I'm exhausted! AK tomorrow.

Have fun!

So, lead foot Linda made it as far as the first exit into Delaware last night. They actually would have made it all the way through, but wound up stuck in the Harbor Tunnel for over an hour because of an accident (not them!). They stopped at a Holiday Inn Expressand will made the last couple of hours this morning, but they weren't going to get up ealry or anything. Just whenever they get up, they will have brealfast and hit the road. Will probably wait until after Rush Hour.

Jim is washing and waxing my car today. Then he will pick Jimmy up a little early from camp and take him to get his haircut.

Last night I went and got my haircut and then ran to target for 1 $3 item. $95 later I left

I'msure I will check back in later. Have a great one all

 

[cmp1111]

Hi, Kristel! Enjoy the nice weather!

Good - I had tried to be careful about not putting in a ton of random sizes.

Last night I went and got my haircut and then ran to target for 1 $3 item. $95 later I left

I had a day like that at Target yesterday, too - though I knew we'd spend more than $3. The Lego Harry Potter game came out for Wii, which we've been looking forward to since last summer, I think. It coming out was the impetus to read at least the first four books because I was being a stickler about not playing the game until they'd read as far as the game went. Luckily I had a rewards deal free Target gift card, so it was relatively cheap. But we also had to get Deb's DD's b-day present and some other stuff. Oh, well.

**********************************************
Quiet morning for the most part. After I'd posted last night, Buzz's little friend's mom FBed me to see if he could come over. He's going after lunch, but I'll have to pick him up to go to karate. The sensei is taking from tomorrow through next weekend off, but when he's back, we'll be in IL for my reunion, so... We have to go today since we can.

That's about it for now, I guess. Thankfully it's a quiet one!
