The DDA Trouble Free Zone Part 9

[mommy2emmersNmo]

I like both, but Caroline a bit more.
That is the thing with names, we loved Guenna Kelly for our daughter but just refused to think down the road the confusion it caused and when she was about 8 or 9 some kids called her Iguana. It is pronounced like Gwen-na. The only time she was really proud of her name in school was when she was taking German. Her teacher was just gushing because it was spelled perfect and was pronounced Goo-na.
But when the guys would tell her how much they liked pronouncing her name that sealed the deal.
Just cannot go wrong with Howie (he is Harold III and DH is Hal and DFIL is Harold or Opa) and Steven

I love your dd's name! It is so beautiful.

Thank goodness that law is on the books, or Kate would parade Mother Goose down Main Street, and probably tell Nick it will bite him if he doesn't behave.

Paula - apparently that money tree actually grows in the forgotten city of atlantis which they still haven't found yet but some claim they have despite what everyone says. There's rumors that if you dig a 4 foot 3 inch hole and put a dollar bill a dollar bill that's older than 1921 that's torn it half diagonally from right to left and water it once every full moon and twice in july that it'll grow in remote parts of Oklahoma.

Delinda -- happy belated birthday! glad to hear that your recovery is going well! I'm sorry to hear about your cat!!

Terry -- thanks for sharing those pictures. You have an absolutely beautiful family! And wow! Your DD does look just like you! The card from your DH was too sweet

Denise -- thanks for the update on Rees' surgery. I'm glad the gallbladder came out without complication! How did the interview go? Nevermind, congratulations on the job!!!!! It sounds absolutely perfect! The pictures of the kids are great, again!

Amy -- so just how many movies are the "greatest movie ever"? And seriously -- the vomit discussion?! I hope Alyssa wasn't sick, and it was just the car trip! But just to bring it back up..... when I was 7, some friends of my parents bought a brand new house. I walked right in the first time we were seeing it, and vomited spaghetti and meatsauce all over their white carpet! They're still friends Tell Kevin I'm quite impressed with the cut-out furniture! We definitely always make graph paper rooms, but we've never done that! And this time, it was much easier since we have virtually no furniture anymore! Did you end up getting that princess border? Aurora's hair does look pretty orange, but it really could just be the photograph. I think it's a cute border!

Jennifer (bear) -- it still takes about that long for them to mail the NCLEX results, but you can get "unofficial" results (whatever that means, it's done on a computer so I'm sure it can't be that unofficial) within 3 business days.... for a fee. It was worth it though, to buy that peace of mind! Edit: I just read about your headache! I hope your migraine medicine regimine doesn't need adjusted, and this was just a one time thing! That's never a fun experience

June -- congrats on 37,000! And happy belated birthday!

Clare -- Ok, so this would have been much more pertinent had I posted it before we left, but I'll still share. Remember a few weeks ago when you were educating us on the use of "dodgy"? Well the very next night we watched Love Actually, and I had completely forgotten -- but they use it constantly! Congrats on passing grades for your assignments!

Kristine -- the grand gathering event is a great idea! I wish we were going then!!

Teresajoy -- thanks for sharing those pictures of Chuck and Vicki!

Paula -- I love the new signature picture!

Janet -- thanks for stopping in. It looks like you're going to Europe soon?! How exciting!!!

Anne Marie -- what a cute picture of your DS at the ballgame! I'm glad to hear he had such a great time, despite the loss!

Marci -- tell Jake congratulations for such a great ending to the season!

Vicki -- this (fairly) young lady is quite familiar with carbon paper! My grandmother gave me a ton of it when I was younger, and I had a hayday with it! I thought it was the coolest stuff ever created!

The new Disney promotion sounds cool, but we never win anything ... I think we'll be there twice though, so we'll see! Hopefully some people here can have some cool experiences

Oh my goodness! Sounds like I missed a doozie with the fanny pack thread Seriously.... that's the most important thing to worry about? Pretty comical to me!

Deb -- the projects from Home Depot are really cool! My sister used to go to some of those.... it's such a neat thing to offer!

Ooh, I never saw this guy before!:

Robyn -- the picture of Emma is too cute! Hooray for losing a tooth!


Ok, gotta go for now! Kyle and I are going to the Reds game tonight with the Peds intern class. I have sworn off med-peds stuff, because I have a bone to pick with the director. (Where did that phrase come from?! ). But Children's sure treats their interns well... and lucky for us, we're invited to all 3 departments' parties (Internal Medicine, Med-Peds, and Peds)!

I'll be back on later tonight or tomorrow! Have a good evening!

Robyn -- for Emma's soccer team progressing! How are they doing now?

She played her last game on Saturday and unofficially the team lost. We have a trophy party tomorrow.

 

[mommy2emmersNmo]

Does anyone know how to plan an intervention? Vicki sent me a pm this morning that her Pal had started ebaying and had found a cute armoire for himself!!! This armoire is cuter than mine and since when does a stuffy ebay?

I am seriously considering an ebay/Pal Mickey intervention with Vicki!!
Only problem I see with it is I keep enabling it!! Tents, swimsuits, tie dying my hands (I mean shirts!!).

This is too funny! And I love the word "stuffy"

 

[mommy2emmersNmo]

Maybe we could all go on Dr. Phil

we could be on a show called - My DH thinks I am obsessed with Disney - we could take our planning binders, shirts, etc. - and take Dr. Phil to DL with us for the day!!

Eric wants to know when this is Dr. Phil is scheduled for? He thinks I have lost my marbles and wants immediate help to save me!

Ok we are watching Sesame Street and Telly Monster says "You can't learn to boing in a day" What!!!! They were boinging on pogo sticks but I couldn't stop laughing.

I love Sesame Street!! Not as much as when I was a kid but still love it....I remember when Snuffy was believed to be a figment of Big Birds imagination. PBS kids programming is hard to beat.

I'm so excited!!!
It may not be important to some, but it's good news for me!
I found this company to ship fridges to the values at Disney (www.abbf.com) and it's 1/2 the price of Disneys fridges. (Score #1!) I found out today that they are adding coffee makers to their list as well! (Score #2!) I don't have to walk a mile from the 90's building to get my morning java anymore!! So long it's not one of those 4 cup coffee makers it'll be perfect (and still cheaper than me upgrading to a moderate!)

 

[PNO4TE]

YAY Elin! I am for you but for me. I was figuring we would at least bump into each other somewhere since we were both in BWV.

We can still plan to bump into one another. We are both doing MNSSHP on the 19th, right? And the two resorts are close enough that we will both be entering Epcot through the International Gateway. We just need to plan "when" we enter!

Yes, the member would have gotten a written confirmation from WDW for (1) the new reservation and (2) the cancellation of the old one. Nice of them to let you know.

That's what I was thinking too! In fact, I had to email her three times to get her to send me the original confirmation. She faxed it to Bob and I asked her if I could please have the "real one" and she acted like I was crazy. Oh well, maybe this only happened very recently and she has not received the change in the reservation. I guess I could email her and tell her about it...

I've used them to rent a double side/side stroller the past 2 times. It beats the price from the parks and they are the REAL thing.

Thank you for your opinion on the service tomorrow. As of now I think I will go to the reception but not the service it’s self. I think at the reception I will be able to talk with the family and that might give meaning to them.

I just can’t handle a childs service; I am crying just typing this. I know I should go, but I just can’t, so I will go to the reception. Again all of this is as of now, who knows what tomorrow brings.



I may pop in and out the rest of the night depending on who and when people come over.

 

[yellowfish78]

Actually I just got off the phone with a friend from JAX. She's gonna check Good Will for me and see if she can find a coffee pot (cheap of course!) and then mail it down to me at POP complete with filters and prepacked coffee and cups. Then we can just leave it. (Anyone arriving after me that want's a coffee pot for their value??)
