The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 31

[Tammi67]

Tomorrow i'm going to NYC and going to see the Radio City Music show and a Backstage tour. My Mom's best friend and two of her daughters will be joining us. None of them have been to NYC. This might be there only chance to go to. So it will be them, My Mom, Dad and Brother. Oh yeah and me.

Sending prayers to all of you. I have been reading but have been having a heck of a time remembering things.

Please keep your fingers crossed that I don't get any calls to work next weekend. I want to enjoy Friday, Saturday and Sunday with no work.

I need to head to bed. I hope I have everything together for tomorrow.

Have a great weekend.

Enjoy your day, Becky.

I haven't seen the booster set for the disney scene it.

We got it last Christmas.

Sorry i keep whining to you guys..its so hard right now to be home alone. My poor brother is in texas for a wedding and im waiting for him to call me. So here i sit, waiting for the phone to ring..You guys are the only ones around to talk so i apologize

I'm sorry that I went to bed right before this point. I'm sure that there were plenty of others around to talk to, though. I am so sorry that you are going through this right now.

 

[bethbuchall]

Here are some pictures from our 'concert' tonight.

That looks fun!

Lindsay - Ditto on the brother front!

I don't know how they are doing, honestly. ExMomboss says Brother is naughty but he is so sweet he gets away with it. (Which is not new.) She says Sister has been doing great, but I don't know if she is really doing great or if whoever the nanny is just doesn't tell the whole truth.
Susan and I were talking about it the other day. I don't know if ExMomboss just doesn't want me to worry or if she doesn't want to admit that they aren't doing well not having full time help. I LOVE my job with Princess and I wouldn't ever leave her to go back to them, so maybe it's better that I don't know the whole truth. I miss Brother terribly, but I think he is doing OK. He called me last weekend to tell me he got a soccer trophy and got a stripe on his TaeKwonDo belt. I will be very happy to see him tomorrow.

If anyone has some spare PD for Susan I would appreciate it! She is having health problems related to the horrible complications she had with her liver during her 2nd pregnancy. Her DH is being laid off 12/15 so she doesn't want to run up a bunch of medical bills having tests. It sounds to me like it has the potential to be very serious, and I am worried about her.

Lindsay, I also am sorry to hear that the news is not better for your brother.

Elizabeth, at least you had a good influence on them while you were there. It must be so difficult to leave.

for Susan. The liver is extremely important, so I hope that she gets the tests and care that she needs.

here is a pic of the girls in matching shirts. One says bib sister the other says little sister

Adorable!

here is a picture of one of Olivia's cousins as Hannah Montana at halloween.

Love the eyelashes.

 

[Tammi67]

We did something today I didn't really want to do...shop!!

I was in such a rush at the PO this morning/afternoon that I left the notes out of the girls exchange boxes

Kaelyn....yours is from Abi

and Olivia your box has lots in it...the blue bag is your big sister present...please share Virginia's outfit with her and the other stuff is from Cassidy.


Jim and I went out at 9 to Hallmark to pick up Chanon's ornament and the store didn't open until 10 so we went over to Home Depot and got a new toilet lever and covered garbage can because the coons keep getting into it. We found an awesome bell wreath for our front door for $15 then we decided to see if St. Nick's had the ornament for Channon...they didn't but we got the yearly one for our girls. Then it was time to go back to Hallmark...picked up the ornaments and over to Peir One to use a GC to pick up Cassidy's director chair.

Phew....back home to pick up the goodies for the boxes. Stand in line at the PO for half hour!!

Went to use a 50% coupon at Michael's....got a new glue gun and the supplies for the girls friends presents and to help me finish off Cassidy's pillow for Christmas all for the original price of the gun.
Then to the mall to get Abi's ears pierced (part of her Christmas present) then over to JcPenney's: got Abi a hoodie and a pair of shoes and Cassidy a pair of velour sweat pants and cropped sweats all for $38

Then to Target for food....dang that was expensive. I forgot to tell you Elizabeth that if you go to Target's website you can download coupons for the store. I got broccoli for 99 cents, Tostitos $1 off and the celery free because of the exclusive coupons.

About 1/2 hour before Target I started in on one of my head attacks...I was miserable...I wish I could be done with these.

Theresa, weren't you the one that decided the ornaments should arrive by Thanksgiving. And then you wait until the last minute to shop and mail them???

Good morning, DDA!

Jennifer - I like the car! Congrats!

Becky - Have a great time! I kept fogetting to say that last night!

My head doesn't feel quite as weird today, but I am sneezing and my nose is all runny. Ugh. I have to work all day tomorrow so I hope it doesn't get any worse!

 

[Tammi67]

Oh my goodness, the girl just now called again I told her not to call this late again. Her reply, "Oh I am sorry"

Sounds like someone takes her cell phone to bed with her.

 

[bethbuchall]

I haven't seen the booster set for the disney scene it.

Santa brought that to us last year.

 

[Tammi67]

Night Elizabeth, hope your kink is gone by morning!

Are you kinkless this morning, Elizabeth?

 

[my3princes]

Sorry that picture is enormous! It wasn't that big on the site, they must autosize or something. I don't have the energy this morning to save it, upload it, resize it etc so I'll try and find a different one!

That is beautiful!!!

I was hoping for an update from Jen. I wonder if she has headed to the hospital?

I am staying home today. I want to get my house in order and maybe start wrapping Christmas presents. It is too cold out to even consider putting up outdoor decorations.

 

[Tammi67]

See below...

Tia, I was thinking. Is Phil going to enjoy all the antics at Whispering Canyon?

 

[Tammi67]

What a fun day! I know you've mentioned this, but how old is his DD again?

She just turned 5, 6 months younger than Alyssa.

Nice ride!

 

[Tammi67]

Nicholas was up at 6:30 this morning. So I think we will take it easy today and let him rest. I do have to go to the grocery store and do another load of laundry. Maybe we can start getting some of the Christmas stuff out.

Jen,
No need to apologize. Thats what we are here for.

Tammi,
I love the pictures of the kids. That wig is a hoot!
That is great that your kids & bobs are the same age & play so well.

Lindsay,
Sorry the news regarding your brother isn't better.

Elizabeth,
for Susan.

Jennifer,
Love the girls shirts!!!!Big sister looks very proud.

Vicki,
Disney addiction...no...not me!
I need to get the booster pack for Disney Scene it too...we have played it so many times all the questions are repeated.

Becky,
Have fun in the city today!!!!!!

Deb,
Glad you got the coupon in before the new policy!

Theresa,
How cool!! Horray for Cassidy! How about McD's???

Jennifer (tink2020)
Cool car!

 

[Tammi67]

I talked to the kids' dad last night and explained to him that Santa wanted to bring Nicholas the Wii for Christmas. (Thanks, Vicki. Alyssa has no interest in it). I told him that I couldn't afford it plus the accessories and asked if he would be interested in helping out. He sounded positive about it and said he would think about it and get back to me by the weekend. I would be happy if he helped pay for half of the unit itself. I would buy everything else. So we'll see.

Good morning

So much for sleeping in, I was up at 6am So I have been messing around with our Dec. itinerary I swear I am going to have a binder full of papers to take, so I can be able to keep track of all the activities, ADR's, best parks, hours, ect. Does the Osborne lights have a set schedule for every evening? What about the carolers at AK & the story tellers at Epcot? I also just seen a post about something at MK called "Twas The Night Before Christmas". Anyone know what this is?

I am sure I will have a lot more questions as the time gets closer!

 

[mommykds]

Its a very dreary cloudy 43 degrees here. Dana was going to put the lights on outside today..looks like rain.

We are hanging at home today. I have to get the kids rooms in order. Since we are all home they can help me!

TRU is having the B2G1 on Wii games is anyone needs some. I hate to pass it up the sale but Santa's bringing 8 games so I think we have enough!
