Team Focker Watch, Part 12. Have we jumped the shark yet?

[askelton]

Have fun about the pool. HOw long is it going to take for them to complete the work?

The pool is to take two weeks to complete, but since it's January, I don't care.

1st off any ideas for activities for me? How about a movie that 7 - 7 year old boys would like. We thought Transformers, but Jim and I rented that we think it just a bit too violent for that age.

No idea, but I'll ponder for a while.

Hope you all had a great day.

Once a gain I am asking for Focker Prayers for Phil and baby Bree !! It is not looking good !! I told him I had the Disney Crew praying for her and he said "THANK YOU" Prayers are what we need !!!! I am msity eyed typing this as my hear is so heavy thinking of that presiuos baby fighting for her life !!!

So sad, Rosie.

I will be waiting for the satelitte guy to show up. I am hoping that he shows up in the fron half of the 4 hour window so that maybe I could still catch some of the derby.

We absolutely love DirecTv! Had them for 12 years and would never go back to cable, except that I can't get VS. The guy that installed ours was very professional and did very neat work putting the wires outside.



OMG what a game last night! The first half the Magic played like absolute carp and let the Celtics run all over them. I think they were down by as much as 12, but somehow in the 4th quarter, they got their act together and ended up winning in the last 2 seconds. Not bad for my first NBA game. Now I need to visit Janet to go to an NHL game.

The pool people are to be here around 10.00 to drain the pool, but since it's been draining itself, that shouldn't take too long.

Mitch isn't going to be able to leave tomorrow so he'll be here Sunday like originally planned. I ordered several books that should be helpful for military spouses. Some practical information, but some that are don't forget to laugh books.

Several people on FB recommended Goonies I've never seen it!

We won't be able to get Comcast Sportsnet (which means home FLyers and Phillies games), but we are saving a month is worth it!

Absolutely

Yay on M coming home. How long will he be here for?

 

[PrincessV]

We have done a whole lotta NUTTIN today!

What I wouldn't give for a day like that! Not happening here any time soon, though.

I'm sorry V and errrr I have absolutely no idea what curmudgeon means

Cranky, ill-tempered, sick of it all, lol!

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

Is this week OVER yet??? Nothing new to report; stress in the office continues to mount, I'm dealing with a bunch of stuff with Leo, the house is in desperate need of my attention. I'd like a weekend to relax... I'll get a weekend of running around taking care of stuff.

++++++++++++++++++++

GOt the kitchen and dining room dusted and wiped down. Living room is also done, along with the entertainment center. Just have to unhook the cable box and move it away from the wall for the installer tomorrow.

Now I am going to take a shower and run to the store. I forgot I pomised I'd make 2 dozen cupcakes for the Derby Race tomorrow. I need to get some cupcake tins, papers, and the cake mix and icing.

Hope you are all having a good day

 

[DisneyJo]

Oh sure...blame the cat

She's a good excuse

Hey!!!!!

Eventually, she had put it in a sunglasses case on her desk, goodness knows why!!!!

HEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!

What about a muppet one, treasure Island or something?

I once told a young Doctor I could tell he hadn't been a doctor long !! He gave me this really hurt look and then I told him " I can read what you wrote "

I didn't realise it was leaking that bad!

Some practical information, but some that are don't forget to laugh books.

Great advise

I love the Goonies

I played golf with a new lady called Jo today, she was lovely and strangely her DH is called David too We marked a card for her and she shot 149 When I play I score between 78 and 90 and I didn't count all her shots either, I'm so pleased she was lovely as OMG it was a long round of golf

 

[askelton]

Yay on M coming home. How long will he be here for?

I think 6 weeks, maybe.

I'd like a weekend to relax... I'll get a weekend of running around taking care of stuff.

Could you put off your stuff for a few days so you can relax?

Good thing you remembered before you went to the store.

Jo and David, how funny! You are so kind to play with someone who isn't quite as good as you.



The pool guy just showed up, but I'm not sure how much he's going to do today. In any case he'll be back Monday.

So sorry to hear that Rosie. Good thoughts are headed your way from down in Brooklyn.

And we can always make you laugh too! Good luck with the pool.

I'm thinking of making biscotti today if we get everything done. Happy cupcake making.

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

Clean Clean Clean...thats todays goal. We need to clean up this house. We have been too lax and today is the day. We went to bed at midnight (thats unheard of early for us) and I was up at 7 due to annoying neighbors. But it was enough sleep so I feel pretty good. I even got up and made french toast and bacon for breakfast!

We have a long list of things to do and its early enough that hopefully we will get it all done and have time to relax! Sat we are going to a friends house to help him paint and then might stop by a bar near the house because KC's friend is DJ-ing. Otherwise not much of a weekend planned because KC works BUT next weekend is the vow renewal! I'm excited!

 

[puggymom]

V - so sorry, fingers, toes and paws crossed for you and here are hugs

Janet - how the heck have you not seen Goonies, it's a classic

Angela - glad to here Mitch is coming home

Jo - pets make it very easy to nap, I blame the pugs all the time

Hope you can leave!

Janet - how the heck have you not seen Goonies, it's a classic

++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I showered, ran to the store, ate a quick lunch, cleaned our bedroom (while watching Petticoat Junction Now it is time to make the cupcakes.

Hope you are all having a good day. FOr those at work---Friday is almost over

 

[DisneyJo]

Even I know that 149 is NOT good

Lets just say that the par is 71 so she shot 78 over par and the highest a lady "should" score is 36 over
So what about my Muppet video suggestion????

 

[cmp1111]

I love the Muppet Treasure Island movie, but I was going to suggest "Up".



I crack myself up.

I don't remember when I was here last. Did I share that the IL's finally arrived at 1:45 ish? I think I did.

Yesterday MIL and I had a fine time sitting in the ski lodge. D got home in time to take FIL out to dinner, so that's good.

MIL took me shopping today for my birthday. I got a bra and some boots.

Now we're just waiting on the bus and we're planning on an earlyish dinner out and maybe movie night, depending on when we get back.

I'm feeling much better, but yet very tired.

Miss you guys. We have short b-ball at 12:45 and will take the ILs to the airport leaving around 3:30, so I might be around more after that.

 

[Disneyland_Mama]

OH my goodness!! Whew, it's been a while!

Popping in to say "Howdy!" It's been a crazy week with cookie madness!!!! I cannot believe how many boxes we've sold in 6 days! I think my troop is pretty close to 1000!! Our pre-sales end next Tuesday and then boothing starts at the end of February, and that's when it gets reeeeeeeeally crazy!

I need a little Disney, so we're heading over there after school.

Hope everyone is doing well and sending lots of good thoughts to Phil and his baby, Rosie.

Later Fockers!

 

[askelton]

Clean Clean Clean...thats todays goal.

That's sort of what I did today. I've just a few more things to do tomorrow.

Hi Fockers, I'm here 3x this week

Sorry I'm boring, nothing to say

Ditto!

MIL took me shopping today for my birthday. I got a bra and some boots.

Nice.

Today at MY house we had an ER emergency !! MY staff handled everything perfectly and told me RELAX we got it!!! What a difference !! I LOVE them
Can't believe how soon my trop is

Good morning all. The boys are getting ready to leave for the Pinewood Derby and I begin my wait for the sattellite guy to show up. I am going to clean the bathroom as soon as the boys leave and then if I have time before he gets here do Jimmy's room. There are books all over the place

Not much else planned for the day. What's everyone up to today?

 

[DisneyJo]

I love the Muppet Treasure Island movie, but I was going to suggest "Up".
