I have it in word. If anyone wants it, send me a pm. I am on my way to work, but I will send it to you as soon as I get home!

Elin, Tammi, Chanon, & Janet..

Just sent you a email...let me know if you can see the schedule for Oct.

I saw it embedded in the email but still could not open it from the attachment. BUT... I made my own Word document and now can add things and send it along that way if anyone needs it.

Good morning everyone! Disney shows on the Travel Channel all day yesterday, plus opening day...it was a good day! Plus, I got all of the shows recorded except DCL so even better. (I think I have DCL already so it's still good.)

Of course then I messed it up by forgetting I needed to get up and get Rachel ready for school. Dad apparently woke her up a little late and then they got me up to make her lunch. (And WHY?!?! couldn't Dad do this? The man will got to great lengths to avoid having to make contact with peanut butter.) I followed that up with remembering that I had promised to make Kristi monkey bread for breakfast today. So, now we're having it for lunch.

Let's hope the day (or at least my brain) improves from here!

Hope everyone has a good day!

We got a call from Sophie's soccer coach last week that he would be going away & that his assitant was also going away. He asked Dana is he wouldn't mind coaching the girls this past Sunday..so Dana says sure. Well, Katie gave Dana her bug & he woke up yesterday throwing up. Soooooo guess who had to coach the girls soccer? Me!!! Yep, the most out of shape SAHM in all of my county! It was their first game of the season, I couldn't cancel it. Sophie was so excited about going.

I went to a coaches training session with 5 Dads. This soccer guy who looked like he was a pro taught us what to do. At first when the parents came they were like "You are the coach?" (It's usually a Dad.) Anyway, I did dribble drills, we played Bulldog, & Candy Shop. I divided them up & they had a practice game. For 6 year olds, these girls can play soccer man!!!! Anyway, when it was over, the parents came over & said how well I did & the main coach who runs the whole thing came over too. I asked the girls if they had fun & they all screamed "yes!!!" Wow!!!! I felt so good.

I came home, watched most of the Disney marathon yesterday with my family. That was my Sunday!

sounds like a GREAT day for your ego too, Anne Marie. We all need those every once in a while. I am glad you could step in and handle it and that the girls had fun. I coached soccer for two seasons, so I know how hard you sometimes have to work. I cannot imagine stepping in like you did!

Hi everyone, I know I have not been posting or lurking lately. I am trying to graduate, and I have already failed a few tests, so my nose is in the books for the rest of the semester. I just wanted to let you all know that I will be back in force after graduation in May. Again, I know that I just started posting here, but I hope you all remember me. And don't forget me.

Good to see you posting again, Shannon. Keep that nose to the grindstone... you are almost there!

Anne Marie...sounds like a great day all around!!

Tia...hope your day is getting better.

Shannon....good to see you posting!! hope all goes smoothly toward graduation!!

Mondays are my least favorite days of the week. Staff meetings and for a couple more months PTO and GTAC meetings in the evening...I took one full year off from PTO/PTA, School Board meetings in the 12+ years....I see another year off in my future. Except of course Marching Band meetings...there goes my Monday evenings in the fall.

Hope everybody has great days!!

My kids are off for 11 days starting today! When do you kids get their spring break?

We have the week after Easter for spring break.

 

[Tammi67]

I know that most of us received one while you were gone. There were lots of thank you posts here during that time. It was so nice of you to take time out of your once in a lifetime trip to think of all of us.

I received mine. Thank you so much for thinking of us here while you were having your trip of a lifetime with Gary. Everyone here knows that you wouldn't have excluded someone, and I'm sure if someone didn't get it they would know it's due to our wonderful postal system.

Got it, thanks.

Good for you. I hope you are proud of yourself. It sounds like you had just as much fun as the girls did.

Elin, I think you should add your stuff, take your name off of the list, send it on to someone else, have that person add her stuff and take her name off of the list, and so on, until all names have been removed. That way we know it has made it's way to everyone. Then when it is finished, send the completed schedule out to everyone. Does that make sense?

 

[Tammi67]

I just mowed my lawn and it about killed me. I think I need to hire a lawn boy. Maybe I can get one like Kristine's plumber.

Off to shower and go get Alyssa from school.

Good morning, DDA!

It's going to be a crazy day around here! I have NO CLUE what went on here this weekend, but the dryer was full of white clothes that are RUINED. It looks like the kids rolled in the mud. I can't get a straight answer out of Sister. It appears that they also took EVERY baby blanket (they still have a ton) and towel outside, so all that was in the washer. I put all that in the dryer and RE-washed the stuff from the dryer - it was scary. Filthy like stuff that has been in a tornado and ended up out in the middle of a field. I did a big no-no and put bleach in the washer. The directions say no bleach, but hopefully once won't kill the washer. Now I only have about 6 more loads of laundry to do today before I can pack the kids' stuff for DL. I am also supposed to bathe both kids, go to the grocery, buy Brother an outfit to wear to the Passover seder tonight, and figure out how to take Sister to make-up classes at Taekwondo AND dance. Well, I have a feeling she will just MISS those classes because they are in the afternoon and they have to leave for the seder at 5 PM.

I saw the enrollment packet for Brother to go to the school that would allow me to keep my job. The paper says they have to have those forms turned in along with the tuition deposit by Thursday. Since they leave Wed. AM I guess I will know something for sure this week. They haven't mentioned it at all, so I don't know what they are leaning towards.

and to everybody! I am off to get as much accomplished as I possibly can!

Anne Marie - Better you than me! I can't imagine coaching anything! Brother & Sister finished school on Friday and they are out until Thursday of NEXT week. Luckily they are going to DL! Momboss seems to have her planning under control - she has her tickets AND she booked a character breakfast for Friday morning, so they are in pretty good shape!

Gary

No they didn't do one on the Poly. I wish Disney would have them do each resort.

He was bummed that there was not a show about the Polynesian, I don't think I have ever seen one myself.

Do you know which one?

Elizabeth, it sounds like you are having an extremely busy day! I hope it goes smoothly for you!
