DIS Dads The DIS Dad's Club VI - Man's Room

[tutter99]

Greetings all!

Haven't had much time to get online here for the last month or so, great to see the pics from the December trips. Turns out the little bird that told me it wouldn't be in my best interest to go to Disney the beginning of December was right. Our CIO (my big boss), 2 Directors (my dotted line bosses), and 2 of our developers "left to pursue other opportunities"or "retired" with no notice the Monday after I had originally planned to check in.
I spent most of the month defending my team's budget and debating with finance weasels if my people actually needed or not.

Steve - hope you're feeling better, hang in there.

Fed - Is the Bass Expo you were talking about in Virginia the one the from January 21-23 in Richmond?

Let me start off with CRUD

Now that I have that out of the way, let me say that I meant it in the most positive sense. I've been off work since before Christmas, and because I didn't have to look at a computer screen, I really didn't spend much time in front of one. It was a nice break. Spent some time at home with the family, worked on our upstairs bathroom, and played some Epic Mickey on the Wii.

Welcome to the new dads and I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and New Year's celebration.

Now I've just got to get caught up at work, caught up here, and caught up on some trip reports... I guess this is where the crud should have been used.

I'm a little slow in finding things on the board, but I think I've found a place to stake my claim.

Hello everyone....grumpyfannypack here. I'm 39, father of two, husband of one, from the far away state of Illinois, and upon my family's return from WDW in Sept. '10, have just realized that I am addicted to Walt Disney World. Not so much Disney in general, just WDW. So maybe this is the place for me if y'all'll have me.

I think you'll fit right in.

BTW Happy Millenium!!!

Welcome aboard!! We are all a little slow here so you'll fit right in.

Oops... you mean that happened already? Oh, well, nevermind.

Ok, I voted! I also got my copy of that picture in the mail over the holidays. My daughter will love having it hung up in her room. Thanks again for making it available.

Sure! I'm glad that you're able to enjoy it!

I've been wondering about both of them. Haven't seen them in a while.

Well, school got going again today. Our break really seemed short, but man was it good to get back to the grind. Heck, this was the first time since Thanksgiving that we didn't send a child home early with a stomach virus or strep throat. So, we'll call today a win for the home team, but now that I've mentioned it, we'll probably pay dearly tomorrow

In other news, things are very well. We got our family Christmas gift on Saturday - an Xbox360 Kinect. WOW! That's a lot of fun! While our Wii was great for our kids when they were younger, I think the Kinect is exactly what they'll need as they transition to tween/teens and out of my house! We've been playing Dance Central (hush! It's a lot of fun) and I think it will count as my new exercise platform.

Our family got the Kinect that thing is unbelievable....thye have the biggest loser for it so we picked i up...I voted for you what a cool pic
