The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 2

[KMH1]

You're more than welcome - do you have the quotes/ressie for Pop, or do you want me to look it up online for you? I'm happy to do so! Congrats on the trip!

As for healthy counter-service, I definitely think your best bet is in AK. We like the Flame Tree there - I like their BBQ chicken salad.

I think there is also now a new wrap place in MGM, but haven't been there.

Thanks again Lindsay...we're all booked!

I hope all went well at the doctor...

Tammi -- congrats on getting your official cards!

Kate -- more really cute designs -- the squirt one is also my favorite!

Amy -- how wonderful that you have worked out the trip! I went when I was pregnant with my oldest, and had a great time! Although there were rides I couldn't go on, it was like I had a "prescription" to slow down and enjoy a lot of the things that I'd never noticed before. You are all going to have a great trip!

Clare -- I assume a pencil pot is a holder for pencils?

Yes

Mine looks like this:

So what do you call them over there then?

Growing up, my best friend's sister was Misty Dawn too! You didn't by chance live in OK did you?

Nope, was a military brat....My Misty Dawn was while we were in RAF Upper Heyford.

I do the birthday cards for my youngest daughters school.. Yikes!! the names I had to write this month!!

This was posted on the TPAS board. It is a link to his home movie of his trip that he made. I think it is great. He is RandomPrince.

Wow! Arrgghh!

I want to watch it - and the first couple of seconds look great - but it keeps stuttering... I'm on 8meg broadband so not sure why that would be... I've bookmarked it and will try again later...

Now I REALLY want to go back... Amy I'm sooooo jealous...

 

[rosiejo]

It is the name of a fabric softener!!

I just had to add my strange name stories...growing up I was friends with Penny Nickels and a friend was named Misty Dawn because that is what her mom saw out the window when she was born.

Makes me glad I have a normal name...though my mother in law asked us if Cassidy was conceived in WY because she is Cassidy Cheyenne...uh none of your beeswax!!

Love it

 

[babytrees]

Yes

So what do you call them over there then?

Here in CO we call them pencil cups, pencil holders...that thingamajig over there

 

[Steffy]

Keeping you and that family in my prayers!

Thanks Jen!

We went when I was five months pregnant with Alyssa (that was supposed to be our "last" trip for a while ), and I had a great time. We mostly character hunt anyway.

I'm not so much into the thrill rides anymore, though I will miss riding Splash and I'm a little jealous that Kevin gets to try out EE. I'm also bummed Pirates will be closed! That's my all-time favorite attraction.

[rosiejo]

That's not what I imagined.

Commercial: Ladies, it is that time of the month? Are you not feeling your freshest? Try Summer Breeze...

Oh the poor child... I hope she never visits the states...

 

[rosiejo]

Kate your baby designs are adorable - I love the footprint one... in fact I love ALL of them... better get ironing Amy

 

[rosiejo]

Kate - you are on a roll - this is my favorite yet!!!

Mine too

And yes - Amy you have to wear the designs on your bump... and we want pictures

Have you ever had a time in your life where you feel invisible unless someone wants something from you or they wanna chew you out?

I have been feeling this way for a while now but this morning was the final straw that broke this camel's back. I don't normally cry but I just feel so put upon and ignored at the same time.

Any suggestions to combat this?

You need what I call a mental health day - make arrangements for you to have a whole day to yourself - do whatever you want

be totally selfish - do whatever you want - even if it is sitting at home on the couch and doing nothing!! That usually picks me up

I live 15 minutes from a theme park - and when I know it won't be crowded - I go over there for a couple of hours and ride all my favorite roller coasters - being able to scream like that lets out so much stress!!!!!!!

Sending you a big hug!!

Oh and until you can have your day - a pint of ice cream is a pretty good temporary fix!!

Theresa, you sound pretty stressed. I don't have any words of wisdom, other than to treat yourself to something special. Sending you

Amy

 

[rosiejo]

I had a mental health evening last Friday....It didn't work like they usually do!
My girls are the only ones I know who are allowed to have mental health days from school. I understand the total need for that break...I just need to figure out what that mental health day is going to be this time and when!!

I tried the chocolate last night it didn't work either.

I think I didn't see the start of this so it's gotten out of hand.

I see Cold Stone Creamery in my future!!

I have a "newlywed" question for you. My cousin and her soon to be husband are going to Disney for 4 days on their honeymoon on 2/26. I have asked Kate for a couple of designs but besides that and the bride/groom ears is there any special advice I can give them for extra pixie dust in the parks

[babytrees]

Thanks for letting me vent!!

I'll tell you what's helping me get through my day right now: (I promise I don't need an intervention ) The High School Musical Soundtrack...it makes me smile and right now that's more than I can say for almost everything else.

Come on Kate - go public on your addicition!

Everyone go check out this thread anyway and look for Suzanne - post number 3 - she has this amazing picture in her sig of a flower display in a vase - but they're all ariel toppers on sticks! I LOVE it. DH only let me buy one topper last year as he ssaid they'll just get stolen from the car - when I got home I was so worried I took it to work and put it in my pencil pot! Works much better as I get to look at it everyday... but a case full would be so cool

I've seen it. She changes it according to season. I guess she has a ton of them and can change them by season and holiday. What a cool thing. That would definitely make me smile at work.
