The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 3

[tink2020]

Too bad you're not here in Texas - I'd take you for a REAL margarita!

Here's some and that you feel better!

Thanks I've actually never been to Texas, so if I had money and time I'd welcome the trip... and the margarita!

Which made me think actually, a lot of people talk about going to work or DISing while at work, but I don't think I have any idea what most of you do! Anyone want to share?

I'm an IT manager for the state. My staff are spread out across the Western UP. We support all state agency computers. We have 8 of us on the team (including me) and we are responsible for 1800+ computers. I was a computer consultant/trainer until I got the job with the state. I am a workaholic so put many hours in for work so I don't feel guilty when I check on the DDA during the day as I work hours most evenings & week-ends as well.

How about you Clare?

 

[PNO4TE]

Ok, so you went to Ohio....when are you coming to Virginia????

YEAH! When? Get that room ready, Tammi

Loved all the pictures from Game Night. how cute!

Welcome back, legalslave and Kristine

Nice volcano design, MidNite.

Cool tattoo, Jo!

Jennifer, let us know the outcome of Match Day. Glad you got to check out Delaware again. Wish I could meet you for lunch.

Lindsay - that is GREAT news you got!

Clare - I teach piano, voice and music composition

I think I am once again caught up with posting... I will try to stay that way

 

[PNO4TE]

I think my next planned road trip is going to be in July for a meet in DC. Does that count???

Yup! Since we are probably going to be staying in Virginia it counts...

I have a couple of pictures to share. I hope that Skunka is in a good mood . After the tease that we got the other night that Paul would be donning the Mrs. Potts costume I decided to put him in it anyway. So, this is how Paul would have looked as Mrs. Potts.

So Marti, what do you think of Hunka now? Happy Special day.

I'm not afraid of the pain. Just afraid to do it.....

I'll do the temporary one and see how I like that.....and keep watching Miami Ink.

I absolutely love it!!!

 

[PNO4TE]

Hey -- we're so tired after our long trip and all you people want to do is bash. So unfair. Is there anybody here that will defend us??

I'm in on the defense team, Marti... I was in COLLEGE in 1972.

I figure that these young'uns haven't figured out that it is wise to respect their elders yet

 

[bear74]

Thank you Glynis!! And I was only 9 in 1972 -- I wasn't exactly ancient!

I wasn't born yet.
I was born in 1974.

I have to take Julia to the doctor today - she has some isssues we need to discuss with the doctor and I will have to wait and see how that all turns out before we can commit to anything!!!

I hope everything is okay with the little princess.

Sending and to everyone. I know you can all use it, especially since it has been quiet around here.

I've been trying to get my me time today. I went out and bought Rent with the intent of watching it. Well the TV turns on but there is no picture . So I try another TV well the Playstation 2 doesn't work, this is used as a DVD plyaer with that TV. I could always rip both apart and configure it to work but I don't want or need that stress. So I am attempting to watch it on my Desktop and Dis on my laptop. But I'm irritated because I got the widescreen which is fine for the TV but not a desktop screen. I don't understand why they can't put both on the same DVD, why do they always make it two separate disks.

I am glad you enjoyed your DDA meet/road trip. That is really what I want a road trip. I haven't had one since I can't remember when. I used to take monthly or bi-weekly road trips. I can't even watch a movie without having drama. , let alone take a road trip.

Kate, I love that fabric for the bag. Where did you get it? They bag looks awesome by the way. Just not for me, I don't like the whole strap between my b***s look. Although it might not be that bad since it is wide and not skinny.

As for 1972, that was about 10 years before I was born.

Back to watching Rent.

I was going to say - I could make the bags plain and you could customize the front - I never thought about that!! LOL!!! my other bag will be a backpack if you want something that does not cover the front!!! I am eventually going to put them on ebay and I hope that if I do well selling them that I can buy a disney embroidery sewing machine - then I could put characters on the front

What about putting a clear plastic pocket on it. Like the plastic for a table cloth. Then you could slip designs in and out so you could change it daily.

Now that is great!!! I'm sure Skunka will have a sense of humor about this.

Sorry, Kate, but I think Skunka looks better in it than you did.

 

[ReAnSt]

Anyone want to meet for a margarita or something for lunch?

ETA: I guess that needs a little qualification. Nothing drastic, just an age old, annoying, depressing "conversation" with DH.

I would but it would take 10 hours to get there. Have a margarita, enjoy your lunch. Sening you and that things get better.

Becky

 

[Tammi67]

there isn't but I would certainly be happy to add some custom features!!! (well within reason!!!)

So what do you think the going rate will be for these bags????

 

[babytrees]

Kate- hope the dr's appt went well

I know those "discussions" with husband well!! Hope you get the respite you need Tink!!

I missed all the chatter that goes on here....so glad I had 15 pages to catch up on

Congrats on the sizes 8 and 12...I am just happy I have gone down one size...just not telling anyone what that size is

I have to take Julia to the doctor today - she has some isssues we need to discuss with the doctor and I will have to wait and see how that all turns out before we can commit to anything!!!
