[jldriscoll]

Awww...Nancy starts partying and I fal asleep ..... It's your own fault really. Survivor dork

Sorry it was a RL day Kim I was missing you too, figured with the holidays everyone was going to have a day or two they dissapeared.

You crack me up Kim!! Emily wanted to stand in the playroom, but I didn't want you all to see that! I love the color of this room! It took us a month to pick it out. THere is a Bay window to the left of Emily.....

Bonnie is gone for the holiday until after the new year. I wasn't here to say good bye.

Well....off to get our last school day started. Ed took today off (Like he NEEDED to start his 2 week vacation early ) Still in bed so I have 3 kids to attend to this morning

I'll be back later! Have a great morning everyone!

Good morning Ya Yas!
HELP!!! My eyes are permanently crossed from cutting out teeny tiny snowman ...um...snowPERSON...pieces parts!!! Teeny tiny little noses, little scarves, little hats...little CRAZY!!!! David's class party is today and the craft of choice is making snowmen out of tongue depressers....which I had to paint white! They are cute but holy smokes it took alot of prep work!!! I meant to stay up last night and do this but my ears were still ringing from the Cub meeting and I couldn't concentrate!! Soooo....up at five and now the little suckers are all done!!! And I am already on cup # 3 of coffee!!!! Can you say wide awake?!?!? Hee hee! WAIT! CAN YOU HEAR IT??? I HEAR SINGING!!! What song is it?....I can almost hear the words....M-I-C-K-E-Y Christmas just for me!!!!!!! WOOHOOOO....I can feeeel that magic already!!!!! Just one more kid to make it to the bus on time (and yes, we did make it yesterday ), one more class party and then my brain can be in the magic!!!! Where's Jennifer?? I feel like dancin!!!
Gotta go see Caitlin off on her last day....back later ya'll! Good days to anybody I miss!!!!!
M-I-C-K-E-Y Christmas just for me.....................................

 

[jldriscoll]

(See, that's why I don't do the rhyming thing )

HAve fun with the snowmen today!!!

Wahoo....bet Mickey is cleaning out the spare bedroom for the Dream family as we speak!!! I've been meaning to ask you....where am I going on Christmas day? You taking me to a a
park?

 

[Dream]

Hee hee....must be the coffee...I didn't see ya up there Jennifer!
Where are you going on Christmas day? Well that all depends on when we get out of here Christmas morning!!! I don't think there will be a lot of sleeping going on here on Christmas Eve!!! So I am assuming the kids will be tearing into their gifts before the sun rises (as usual ) and the van WILL be packed already...so I am hoping to leave here early!! It's a llong drive but I hope to be there by dinner time. We have length of stay passes so something tells me you will see the Magic Kingdom sometime Christmas evenng!!!!!! Ahhhh....first glimpse of the castle on Christmas Day.....it just doesn't get more magical thanthat!!!

STOP!!!! CANNOT GO THERE YET!!! STUFF TO DO TODAY!!!!

 

[Poohshoney]

Hello everyone, remember me?

I'm beginning to feel better so I've meade you all some hot chocolate and chocolate croissants and German biscuits - help yourselves!

 

[dizneenut]

Mornin' Ya Ya's!

Hi Carol! Good to see you again. Glad to hear your starting to feel better!

Don't have time to completely ketchup right now. Just wanted to pop in while I have a few.

Today is the last day of school for my boys, too.
And my last day of babysitting for a week! WOO HOO!! I can FINALLY sleep in!!!

Jordan puked once yesterday, but is fine and went to school. Hopefully that is all he'll have. Blech.

Gotta do my shopping tonight and tomorrow. Hopefully I'll finish it all so I can relax C. Eve morning and not be out like I usually am.

Jodie! Your not excited about your trip are you?
We are going for Christmas next year. I can't wait.

Jeannie, what are we gonna do until Feb.? No more Survivor. The Amazon looks like it will be pretty cool.

 

[helenabear]

Good morning everyone. I hate doing posts like this but those who know me understand I get this way. I am a bit concerned about someone I care about and until I know things are okay I might be a little quiet. So just think of me as here, but sitting in a corner quietly listening to all that is going on. With that I have a few things I need to try to get done at work today. I hope you all have a great day!

 

[newmousecateer]

Good Moooooooooorning YaYa's!

Last day of work for me for a whole week!

Carol, so glad to hear you are starting to feel better. And thanks for the yummy goodies this morning.

Woo hoo Jodie! I'm getting excited for you girl! I wouldn't be able to concentrate on anything.

Nancy, love the "party critters"

Sketti is coming home to party tonite! (Marilyn pushes Kim out of line. Whine. Betty, I was here first, not Kim. Kim is fibbing! Betty looks a Kim and yells at her and tells her to behave. Neener, neener, neener)

And happy birthday to Chris.

, drove half way home (20 min drive) but then realized we'd left Tom's truck in town.

I can totally understand (although I have never done that ). Sometimes after a hectic day I can't wait to get home. I had to go to a toy store after work last night, and on the way home there was a woman in front of me yacking to her passenger and pointing here and there and driving 25 mph in a 40 mph zone. Little did she know I was seriously contemplating running her car over with the Tank.

That siggy of hers never fails to bring about the sweetest of dreams.

The correct word here is "nightmares".

Hi Jennifer

 

[Meriweather]

Good morning everyone!!

Yippee, Carol is back in the lodge ...and brought goodies too!! We missed you and so glad you are feeling better.

Watch out...Marilyn mad in the tank!!

Jodie....I'm getting excited for you!! you will have a wodnerful time!! Jennifer gets to go...AGAIN!! You are well travelled (at least to WDW).


Sherry....glad things are getting well at your house.
Survivor the Amazon....looks very interesting.

Today is busy here too.....DD arrives home for 3 weeks, DH's last day for 2 weeks (I will be SO ready for my alone time again!!), I have baking to do, food to get ready for the office party and that to go to...whew!!

{{{{hugs}}}} Elaine

 

[dizneenut]

Where is everyone?

{{{hugs}}}, Elaine.

Found out DH is going back on afternoons when he goes back to work on the 2nd. Blech! I hate afternoons. Waaah!!
He's going to try to bump back to days, but at least for awhile he'll be on afternoons. I am so bummed.

 

[CrazyBoutDisney]

Whew, what a morning!! You'd think we weren't working Mon & Tues, the way the boss is acting! Hey guy.......CHILL!!!!!!!

Just a quick ketchup:
CAROL!!! Glad you're feeling better and thanx for the treats. How are German biscuits different?
Jodie, try to stay calm, you still have 4 more days to get through. I know, easier said than done!! My brain went on vacation at least 2 weeks before we actually went!!!
Jennifer, are you going with Jodie as a virtual or RL?
Sherry, sorry Jordan got sick again, but glad he braved it to go to school today. Hope he makes it through. And sorry about DH's work schedule. Such a pain to have to adjust everything.
Marilyn, don't know HOW many times I've been tempted to drive right over people like that! Yeesh, no consideration!!!
Elaine, doin' some heavy-duty praying over here, too. I know we have to "Let go and let God", but it seems so unfair that all these good people should be in all these bad situations. {{{{{HUGS}}}}}

Back to work

[Dream]

Hi Nancy, Beth and Sherry!!! Quiet today huh?

Don't have to "engage" much for that one though...endure is a better word! But even the thoughts of THAT wonderful event can't get me down cause...I'm going to see Mickey!!!! Annnnd...Sketty will be in the Lodge tonight....let the good times roll!!!! We are taking the kids to a movie but should be back in plenty of time to play with ya'll!!!!

[jldriscoll]

Thanks for the rescue Nancy!! That's the one thing about all the treats we make at christmas. My back is sooo achy before it's all over. Don't we have a "boy" to take care of that?

Kids are home. House is clean.....WELCOME TO VACATION!!!!!

Oh Miss Elaine!!! I got a little something WONDERFUL in the mail today!!!!!

Thank You!!!!

Gotta go for a few....I'll fill you all in on my goodies in a minutes!!!

 

[helenabear]

Hi all! I am feeling much better than I was earlier, but thanks for the hugs you all I think I have to get my Christmas shopping done very soon so I might not be around tonight. Actually if I get my DH off his duff I will go shopping for something for someone. Have a great evening all

Edited to say:

Oh goodie!!!!! I am so glad you got it! I should have sent it via regular mail though because everyone I sent a CD to seemed to have gotten it yesterday But so glad it made it there! I hope you like everything

 

[Meriweather]

Jodie...what movie you going to see?
You get to see Mickey!! I MISS him so!!

Jennifer....what you get, huh? I love people getting packages (even more than getting them myself )

I only have to dip some cookies in chocolate and done for today...but almost time to leave for the party I would rather stay home.
It is getting to be less and less each year because of cutbacks.

Yep, staying in the lodge and getting a back rub sounds much better!!

 

[jldriscoll]

Ok, back to my goodies...I got a cd of pictures
TONS of maps!! My girls will love "planning" with them!!! (After we tell them we're going of course. Waiting until after Christmas for that! I can only do one countdown at a time!) SOme super stickers that will go in the girls plane bags. Annnnd...a mickey keychain and cedar moose!!!! (Thanks Nancy!!!! )

Check it out yaya's....

Elaine...you are just the best!!! Thank you thank you!!! What a treat!!!

Oh, and BTW, I think it's my end of the mail that is slow. Small town, small mail office. YOu literally cannot fit more than 4 people in the lobby of our post office, and occasionally we don't get mail when the mail lady is sick (no one to fill in).

Elaine is the best!!!!
