The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 30

[PNO4TE]

I took some pictures of my little kidlets at school today. I will post tomorrow night along with all of you! I know I will have a ton more photos then too.

Time for bed. Hope you all have good nights! :

I got an email from Kathrin today that she had heard back from the company in Boston that she really was interested in. However, they are not interested in her right now. I know she has to be so disappointed.

The agony of defeat! I am sorry it didn't work out for her! Is she still waiting to hear from the other company? Has she had any other interviews she is excited about?

All of them. Bounce Back is probably the same as the 20% AAA but it never hurts to ask. I can't remember if any of the dates are in May, but like I said, if you are onsite and qualify for Bounce Back you might as well call and see what they quote you.

It might be helpful to have a room booked for May before I go then.

I think my kids are going to have a handicap because I never had to do a Science Fair project. Science Fair must not have been invented yet when I was younger. So not only am I a sleepover virgin, I'm a Science Fair virgin as well!

I didn't have to do a science fair project either....but Cassidy was fine....one of the few who got full pts in 8th grade...the only year that it is required in the district. So you will be fine losing your Science Fair virginity...I promise.

I don't think I could handle doing them every year like Elizabeth's DS.

You don't have to BOOK, just look up the rack rate and subtract 20%.

That stinks. Has she heard from the second company?

and to all I've missed. My notes got all messed up so I know I've missed some I just can't remember it all.

Vicki-I do think I missed your NWA question. I flew them in 1992 to Alberta and we didn't have any problems but that was a few years ago. We bought a larch tree after that trip to the Canadian Rockies. It is a pine tree that looses it needles. It was a tiny little thing when we bought it but now its taller than the house.



Work has been crazy. We are pretty much done with the budget for now (still need to spread it by month). Now we are on the rush to close October. We generally close the month 10 days after month end (always a Saturday) but this month they want to do it in 5 so they can put the October financials in the package that goes to the board of directors. So the next few days will be crazy too. We are having a special lunch at work on Monday to celebrate the Red Sox win. And then I go Disney on Thurday. I think next week will be a good week!

I've got so much I would like to do before my trip. I've got to do my Tshirts! Maybe I'll print them out tonight. I know better than to turn the iron on too late. I really want to make those F&WFest cards that Becky had the link for. I think I can do that over the weekend but I've got to pack too. I was also thinking about making Lizzy a passport but I may just do the cards we've used in the past as those will be easier.

I'm trying to find someone to pick us up at the airport. I don't want to be standing out waiting for the bus to the boat and then waiting for the boat if its going to be in the 20's. I've got a friend that said she would but we wouldn't all fit in her car so she'd have to drive my van and she's used to a small car.

Good luck getting everything done You will have so much fun.

tell her I am so sorry...but the right job is out there for her.

Disney has signed a contract with Hanes for clothing products. http://disboards.com/showthread.php?p=21549136#post21549136

So you did end up buying? That's great! If you needed help using the points, I would have been glad to take them off of your hands.

Ooo, ooo! Me too! Me too!

They still flipped a truck and set a motor cycle on fire. Sounds more like drunk college kids than true fans!

So sorry I didn’t see this yesterday BUT….I did find yesterday’s Boston Globe and the Patriot Ledger (south shore) at Stop & Shop tonight. The Ledger actually looks really good. Maybe I should wait to see if there is anything in the Sunday Globe before I mail them off to you.

I know. And you know it is primarily college kids. Most of them probably never watched a Sox game before their freshman year. When every person quoted in an article is under 25, then you know. The real fans are at someone's house, a bar with friends, etc, not flipping vehicles. I will just never understand that part!

After Sunday sounds great. I really appreciate whatever you found! Thanks!!

I'm so sorry for Kathrin. The right job will come along soon, I know.

Tia-do you have a new signature? It is really cool!!!!



I printed out the Pop T designs for Dorinda and Ralph, the Walt Disney World designs for Dorinda, Ralph, Terry, Halley and Terry's friend, Epcot designs for me, Lizzy, Terry & Halley. And all 3 of those plus a birthday one for Joe's trip for Mickey. I did the Mickey ones 3x5 hope the size is OK as I was too tired to try a trial print first and go get the actual T's. I'd like mail Terry's shirts to her so I don't have to pack them. Maybe I can get up early in the morning.

Well, the pumpkins are carved and the trashman may just get a hernia on Thurs from lifting all of our pumpking guts. That is one heavy bag. We've got some cute ones, though I am partial to Terra's. Primarily, I just love it because it's one of the only ones not done from a template. She drew a picture on a piece of paper for me and I transferred it to the pumpkin. It is apparently a picture of me and then I was supposed to put a picture of her on my pumpkin. She's happy with them so that's all that matters. I'll post pictures tomorrow along with her costume.

Yeah. I had been seeing a couple of them on some other posts and thought it was neat. So I set out to see what was available. Through the animator site, I could include 10 different bars. I found one site with tons of Disney choices and had a hard time picking my 10. I like that it can hold so many favorites in not too much of my limited signature space.

Well, I am past beat so I am going to head to my chair, if not bed. Guess it depends on whether my crazy daughter is tired yet. Have a good night everyone.

You don't have to BOOK, just look up the rack rate and subtract 20%.

I really ought to just book it. I was trying to decide when to go late April or early May. Now that I've settle on May I should just book it. According to my calculation in Excel it is 183 days til May 3rd. YIKES....I better get thinking about that Color Coded Matrix of Fun! I don't even know what ADR's to make with Emma since she doesn't eat too much. I guess SciFi is a must as is CP. She actually ate quite a bit at Boma but I don't think I'll do that with just her.

Good luck getting everything done You will have so much fun.

Thanks! I know we are going to have such a great time! I just remembered I took all sorts of notes on the "features" in each country in Epcot and I wanted to put those notes on 4x6 index cards.

Emma just fell asleep on the couch. I guess we should go upstairs. I need my rest if I'm going to iron in the morning!

 

[lovesdumbo]

Oh....one more thing before I go to bed....I bought a microphone for my ipod today. Should be fun to record "stuff" at WDW. I wanted to be able to record the birthday message for Joe if they do it at Pop.

Glad that you are feeling better!

Alan has to work until 7:00 tomorrow, so I will stay home and hand out candy, while Katie and Jacob take the twins trick or treating. We live on a circle, so they have plenty of houses to visit without leaving our neighborhood. Once Alan comes home, he'll take them to his siblings houses and I'll stay home.

I'm going to make "finger" sandwiches with tomato (blood) soup for dinner beforehand. I'm going to flatten a breadstick and lay ham and cheese on top. Then I'll top it with another flattened breadstick. Pinch them together and bake them. I'll paint a green fingernail on one end and call it good. At least they'll eat before they start the annual candy gorge!

Tonight we'll be doing our pumpkins, too. Alan does the carving with the kids. I take the pictures, and roast the pumpkin seeds. I don't like the pumpkin goop! My kids do, though, so they'll have a good time.

The biggest thing is that tomorrow is my second anniversary of my gastric bypass surgery. In the past 2 years I've lost 100 pounds, and kept off 96 of it. I'm celebrating that!

You go girl!!!
