The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 31

[Pooh67_68]

I'm going to Disney World in TWO WEEKS!!!

 

[bear74]

I'm ok, not feeling too bad right this minute. I'm very SLOWLY getting a few things done around the house, so that's something I suppose!

Are all the sickies leaving your house yet?

I'm actually off to bed to read until Kyle gets home. I hope you all are doing well!

no and now Jeff is starting to feel it.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Another one? learn to let go of the control.

Like we told Vicki, you have your flights and a room. The rest will fall into place.

I have 18 days...I am in a slight panic...not sure why...I am not feeling my normal uber-organized self!

 

[Pooh67_68]

I hate coffee and don't know what a Panera is, so my vote is for Dunkin.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Oh no, hope it passes by quickly.

no and now Jeff is starting to feel it.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Off to get ready. My new glasses are in already.

Well, my funk just lifted a bit. I have been having trouble driving my stick-shift. I love my Saturn but it was just getting harder and harder. Especially in heavy traffic. My leg goes numb and I was afraid of not being able to get home. So, I talked with Hal and he said to just get another car. So I applied for a loan, looked at two different places and finally decided to go back to my first love, Saturn.
I will pick up this week a Saturn Ion 3. It is a 2005 with only 13,000 miles. It is black with a tan to almost white leather interior. I love it. It even has a outside temp indicator and compass located on the rear view mirror. I am so excited

congrats on the new car

Heidi - how about trying for one of the last breakfast seatings? Then it would be more like lunch. I'm not a breakfast person either. My stomach doesn't wake up until 3 hours later. Oh, and this is Panera. http://www.panerabread.com/

Thanks everyone. I was leaning toward Panera to begin with, since it has a little of everything, for all finicky tastes.

very true...I think for me it is the stress of getting the house in order...and dealing with the arrangements for the menagerie of pets in this house

hate coffee??!!

I tried to give it up once...my head almost IMPLODED

Congrats to Sophie and Katie. Wonderful grades!

Thank you!!!!!!1

I have decided to take the easy way out and get gift certificates for the teachers this year. Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks or Panera?

Panera, some people don't like coffee

We are trying LTT this trip. We have not tried CP yet.
Not sure if I would get an ADR this close to the trip.

How is the breakfast at CP, if I could get an ADR there? I should add,
we are not really breakfast people. I am happy with cold cereal and
John skips it all week.

Oh you should try to see if you can get a lunch or dinner at CP. The food is very good.

never been to Panera but I would say that one as I am also one who does not Like Coffee

Panera gets my vote. But I am not a coffee person. We love being able to go to Panera and gettting the bagels for breakfast and soup for lunch (in the yummy bread bowl)

I agree with this, Tammi! Panera is my favorite lunch spot! :

What about an early lunch? This is what myBob and I seem to do (since he's the Tigger fanatic) and we've had decent lunch food here. We did like it better than breakfast...

for you!!

I have 18 days...I am in a slight panic...not sure why...I am not feeling my normal uber-organized self!

I'm in a slight panic as well. I'm on my way to Lansing for the next 8-9 days. However, we'll make it. After all, we are going to the Happiest Place on Earth!

 

[KristineN]

For sure!!

This is probably the last trip where all 4 kids will be there (at least easily)...so it's extra-special this time

That is a REALLY hard decision! I personally love Starbucks and Dunkin' Donuts. But if you aren't a Starbucks person (I have heard a rumor that those people exist) then maybe Panera would be better. As far as variety I think Panera has more choices.

Yes, THOSE people exist. I know because I'm one of them.

 

[PNO4TE]

Actually, we do have someone (a former admin) but she won't start for two weeks. I can hang in there until then, so it does help to know that help is on the way, albeit a little delayed.

Glad to hear that you will have some help soon, Marci!

I agree... as a teacher I would rather get one from Panera (and often do!).

It's not just a rumor!!
I like Panera. I like Starbucks better, but for people who don't like coffee I don't think Starbucks would be their first choice.

Well, I am back from my insurance meeting. Insurance is EXPENSIVE! If DH lives very long we will have paid in the total amount of the policy in premiums! I went ahead and changed my policy over because we can manage that increase just fine. I upped my coverage and extended the term by another 20 years and the cost didn't change THAT much. I looked at doing DH's for 10 and 20 years and both options nearly knocked me off the chair. No wonder he doesn't qualify for group coverage!

It also appears that we are under-insured for renter's so we need to take a long hard look at what it would cost to replace the entire contents of our apartment and determine how much we need to increase our coverage. Yay.

2008 brochures are out. Email me at work if you'd like one emailed to you!

Also don't forget that if you book a package between now and 12/23 you can schedule a call from Mickey to call on 12/25 to inform the family of the trip!
