The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 25

Hi Friends!!

Hope things are going well for everyone! I'm really going to try to keep up here! Life has been so hectic. I miss you guys!!

Hi Kelli! It's good to see you posting again. I hope you are able to stick around awhile.

I am so mad right now Garrett & Riley just came home. Riley has bruises around his neck & Garrett has bruises around his neck & a nice gash in his back! They were at a friends house in the club house & Garrett's friend told Riley he needed to go. Riley did not leave & this kid starting choking Riley. Garrett got mad & tried to get the kid off of Riley. This kid then gets a stick or something similar & whacks Garrett on the back with it!

I called his mother & had a nice little talk with her. I will not put up with this! Garrett & Riley are to stay away & I told the mother to make sure to tell her son the same. What A way to start summer


Garrett has a game tonight. Talk with you all later!

I'm so sorry Janet. You did the right thing. But take pride that Garrett didn't turn his back on his brother. Riley will remember that.

You could tell them you are planning for way far in advance like 2009 and you want to be prepared by getting passports in advance. My brother has 19 weeks to get his from when he applied and we keep hearing they are taking 13 weeks to process. If the end of August is near and still no passport, he will be contacting our senator. I already have mine, it expires at the end of 2008.

Although we do not need a passport to cruise at this point in time. We are taking no chance of being stuck on an island without them.

Yes, good idea. Just tell them since they are going to be required for everyone eventually, you are just getting a jump on the rush.

I will definitely do a TR for you all. Well, if you're interested, that is.

Of course. I loved reading your TR from January. It was filled with such emotion.

Good morning, DDA!

Good morning Elin and the rest of the DDA.



Deb - I'm glad the worst of it is over for Colby.

Vicki - Sounds like you are having a great time with your family.

Last night I finally got Nicholas to let me pull out his other top tooth. He looks so cute with no teeth.

Are you crazy woman?!? Of course we are!!!

Hey! Just another fly by post to say all is fine in the great U.P. My brother and his son are still here with Mom. My sister and her two kids left this morning. Last night, it was just mom, my brother, my sister and our families. It was really a nice visit. Mom says it is the first time ever that she remembers us being together without us making it a competition. I guess we are all growing up finally.

Billy Ray, my baby nephew, is absolutely adorable. I'm having so much fun with him. We've gotten lots of pictures. I'll post some later. Yesterday, I took him and my sisters kids to see the horses next door.

Mom, Bill & Billy Ray leave in the morning and i'll have lots of work to catch up on. We are hoping to go down state this week-end for my cousins kids graduation. It really is to spend more time with Bill & Billy before they fly home to Japan.

Hope all is well with everyone. Hugs, and prayers for anyone that needs it.

Enjoy your time with the family!!!

...and of course I can't find a decent toothless smilie!

Morning DDA! Have a wonderful day today!!!

Good night, everyone! I'm off to finish packing the kids suitcase, and start pulling my clothes for the trip. My goal is to have the suitcases completely packed by the end of the day tomorrow. Then I can work on the beach stuff. Gotta figure out how to squeeze it all into our car. Hmmm.....

oooh, I'm so excited for you guys!

We want pictures, Mom!

I just spent WAY too much time looking for the same thing!

 

[tinknme]

Thanks! Hmmm, maybe I will take a couple back for the Oct. trip

Congrats on your weight loss! I think I found it, so if you want it back, let me know!!

 

[tinknme]

I Was, I can't stand the thought of anyone trying to hurt my boys!

Oh, I would be boiling mad!!!! No one has the right to lay hands on my kids!!! I hope the boys are ok. I'm so glad you called the mother. Hopefully, she will deal with her son.

 

[tinknme]

That was my 1st instinct, I was up & ready to go! But I decided with the way I was feeling that maybe I should call.

That family is lucky that you only called. I would have been at their house so fast that there head would have spun and that boy would have had to face the music in front of me as well as the parents. That is absolutely unacceptable!!

 

[tinknme]

Glad to hear you are having a nice time with family. Look forward to seeing pictures!

Best of all, in true Stephanie fashion

100 Days people, 100 days

In less than an hour I will be doing the double digit dance.

Good night everyone. I got work and Girl Scouts tomorrow. Only awards, Bridging and WW rafting yet and the GS year is finished.

 

[tinknme]

Christi we all do this, no reason to be embarrassed. We help each other out & get back on track. Come join us!

I'm afraid I would embarass myself as sometimes I have been know to fall off the wagon.

 

[tinknme]

I told Riley last night that even though him & his brother butt heads at times, that Garrett does love him

I do not condone fighting, but I understand why Garrett did this & I am glad he did. This kid is 14 & twice the size of Garrett!

Congratulations to Nicholas! I bet he does look cute

I'm so sorry Janet. You did the right thing. But take pride that Garrett didn't turn his back on his brother. Riley will remember that.

Good morning

Garrett's game did not get over till 10:30 last night & we are all moving very slow this morning lol Garrett took a nice hit in his arm last night & it swelled up pretty good. Poor kid, didn't have a good day yesterday.

Hope everyone has a great day! We have inventory at work today(ugh!)& then I have the next 2 days off

Chat with you all later!

I know! I'm so excited! Can I share a secret???? Alan and I are planning a trip to WDW to celebrate our 20th anniversary in 3 years. We'll take the kids and make it a week long trip!!! We're not telling the kids yet. I want to get everything all planned, and then let them know. I guess I've got time, right? Anyway, I'm really excited! Alan also wants to look at doing a week at WDW and then a Disney cruise. I just can't believe it's my husband who suggested it!!!

YEAH!!!! I'm so excited for you! Your kids are going to WDW.

Good morning, DDA!

Just popping in quick before I have to get ready for work. I hope everyone has a good day! Looks like we're in for more RAIN! Gosh, what a surprise! Sister wants to go to the aquarium today. It is a great place, it is just really expensive and it only takes about 90 minutes to walk through. We've been spending a fair amount of money and I don't want Dadboss to have a heart attack when he sees the credit card bill. I told Sister maybe we'll go there next week - we need to spread our excursions out a little. No clue what we'll do today.

YIKES!! How scary. I hope that they boys are okay and that this is the end of problems with that boy.

A lot of us do! With us that just means you have your friends to help boost you back on. Either way, good luck! You can do it!!!!

Good Morning DDA

I stayed on my diet pretty well yesterday. I did end up eating at work, but I split a meal with a co worker. I had 8 points available and really don't know how many I ate, but it should have been close. The good news is that I'm down a pound this morning I like the idea of moving in the right direction. With 52 days left I don't have time for screw ups

It's just me and Colby this morning so it is so nice and peaceful. No yelling, No fighting and No backtalking

Colby just put a mickey sticker on the countdown calendar and he removed a link from the countdown chain. He definitely seems more excited to go than the older 2, but it is probably because I spend more time with him.

I'm off to do laundry and a bit of straightening around here.
