The Maelstromers... a FASTPASS!

[Chapter 11]

Morning all.

Hayley -- feeling like a bit of a heel here. You certainly have more important stuff to focus on than your trip report. Definitely a case of "open post, insert foot".

Grammy -- those are big pictures, but very cute nonetheless. But I'm a little confused -- which one is your mother and which is Hayley? (I crack me up).

 

[sheridac]

Grammy,

The girls are gorgeous! I can see why you were anxious to post them. What an awesome experience to share with 3 generations of women! BTW, the pictures aren't huuuge - they're big but then no one will need glasses to see them this way

 

[jamal]

It worked, Grammy! They are larger than life, but it worked. There may be an edit button in the share program you are using. If so, you can 'resize..

Forget it. Just get yourself on here and you can go on with your day.

 

[Grammyof2]

Sheridac - Thanks, I think they are gorgeous, too. I love, love my girls. And there were 4 generations. Hayley, 4 at the time, my DD(Hayley's mom), me and my mom. It was a great trip.

 

[horsegirl]

Grammy! Cheryl! What a patootie! She is a beauty. And I love her name. Boy she got the princess treatment that day, huh? Come to think of it, she probably is a princess everyday.....Your mom is adorable, too! Did ya'll read the thread about the woman who took her mom to Dis, what would turn out to be the last time? Awww, so touching. Don't read it if you are feeling fragile. But it is really beautiful.

Jamal and KPK-OMG-you guys are too funny- that wig thing was sooo funny. Thanks all of you for being so supportive. I feel so much better now. See this is why I never became a lawyer... fragile wimp egg I am.

Speaking of ....Chappie elevenie-you are clearly as sweet and dear as can be. Are you Zzub? How come you two are never here at the same time? Naaah, don't really think so, but we need more men here...How sweet is Chappie everyone?

Lou-

Where is Ashclan, where is Shelby?

Mornin' Maelstromers

I see you guys have been busy little beavers, I mean Vikings!



pongo I'm sorry to hear about your friends loss. It's so hard to say the right thing, because there really isn't anything you can SAY that will make it easier...It's also hard being so far away too. As far as a gift, does she have other children? Maybe a gift certificate where she can go and do something outside of the house , it'll take her mind off of her loss , even if it's only for a short while. A spa day, movie tickets or something along those lines.


jamal..Queen of the Meet n' Greets, nobody is mad at you. I think it's just sooo hard to keep up with this thread and often people can't stay afloat but you're a good swimmer and if you're not we'll throw you a lifejacket...Did that make any sense what so ever? LY/MI


Grammy... I see your pictures! Yahoo, dillyaladoodlywoodlydoo! They are great! I'm glad you were able to figure it out. Don't feel bad, I told you it took me all day yesterday to resize and fit my picture. My computer came with a photo program, so that's how I did it and then I uploaded it to the community photos page. BTW, BTW ..Where's your pic

Haley It's a FASTPASS?! We are forgetting our roots.

Chapter 11 - I just like that little face!

J&R's Mom.. Where's your picture... You imageshack expert!

sheridac You are soooo cute! I love the pic of you and your girls. You most certaintly don't look like their Mom

Minnie I'm glad you finally are booked! Did you do this to your pc a few times...

Haley...How was your cosmo last night? I had myself a cranberry w/Absolute

javamom If I was at the restaurant sitting across from you, I would have thrown the pea back at ya. This is the closest thing that I could find that looked like a pea.

Yzma and Kronk Where you been hiding?


horsegirly...I'm off to read your TR page and see whatcha said about that diser loser, hehehehe


K, Maelstromers , I'm off to get me some grog, I'll be back in a short bit...

I'm sorry if I missed anyone, I'm not mad at you, I just haven't had me coffee yet. Aaaargh! Or whatever Vikings are suppose to say!

 

[Yzma and Kronk]

paslea_pooh - Hey! I'm here!

Haven't been able to DIS as much as I should
Real life is getting in the way

I'll try to keep up

Grammy - nice pictures! I have to figure out how to do it sometime too!

Pongo - so sorry to hear of your friends loss. I hope all will be OK soon.

Everyone else: Maelstrom........is a fastpass!

 

[jamal]

Maelstrom forever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Frickles]

Chapter 11....you've been to Rome?!?! Tell me again where you are... if you aren't too far you should consider bringing your kids here for a Braves game!!

Pongo...just hang in there and be there for your friend. I'm sorry girl....

Grammy...you are so fortunate!!! How I wish I could do something like what you did with the 4 generations getting together for a girl's trip!!! Thank you for sharing the pictures.

 

[Minnie]

Eenymeeniemineyminniemoo! Goodie, goodie, goodie for you!
Which tix did ya pic?

We have annual passes. That is one of the reasons we wanted to go so bad as those suckers are burning a whole in my pocket. They expire in July and I don't know if we will renew or not



Edited to add: My blondness is really showing today. I bet you meant which plane tix did we pic. Duh!!!! So sorry. We went with the more expensive Airtran ones because they were available and closer to home. SWA had a Ding but not for our days.

 

[SoNotAPrincess]

I knew I was forgetting something! Last night when I couldn't sleep...hate hotel beds...I played around a bit with LaLa's shadow picture. Not perfect by a longshot, but here 'tis!

LaLa, once you've saved it on your PC, let me know, and I'll remove it from my photobucket account...don't wanna take credit for your photo!

Break over...back to work for me!

 

[Minnie]

Minnie I'm glad you finally are booked! Did you do this to your pc a few times... QUOTE]

You aren't a kidden. We finally got through to Airtran on the phone and all the number we had was a code that told them there was a problem. No ressies no tickets

We had to start from scratch but thankfully the tickets were still there.

1 month from today and counting......

Snap- I know you did this for Lala- but this is the kind of random acts of kindness that keeps me on this thread. I am telling you girl. I am pretty sure you are full of pixie dust and all- that lil fairy is definitely you! Unless you are the little green fairy from Moulin Rouge! Anyone see that one? I like him too, Ewan McGregor.....

Lala- the pic is beautiful!

Hi Frickles!! Hi Yzma and Kronk---I am so embarrassed to admit I don't know that reference. Could you 'Splain?

Melon mom has a great new installment guys.

Touche, PMM! You are a riot. Can I send Sky to your convent when you open it for your girls? She keeps writing in her journal she wants to be a mommy and have babies and get married. She has all the ingredients to get that done. I am terrified of teenagehood with her!

Pooh you guys are killing me. Too funny. I sure didn't want to make a big deal.

Oh, I've been to Rome (hmmm, for some reason that makes me think of singing "and the Isle of Greece, while I've sipped champagne on a yacht", but I'll refrain from doing so (gotta love Charlene -- and parentheticals)). I'm just a tad down I-75 from you -- the Big A. One of the bankruptcy court's divisions is located in Rome, so I occasionally get up there.

 

[Grammyof2]

Has this ever happened to anyone? You know you were on the trip, but you can't find a pic that includes you? I went through about 50 C/D's of pics and I am not in there. Maybe just my wallet and credit card make these trips. I must be a ghost on Mel's favorite ride.

I really am trying to post my pic. You want to see me in high school? Now, I said yesterday I had some splaining to do. I love lucy, how about you?
I was looking for a recent but not to recent picture.

Reason is this... How much money do you need to raise for a charity for you to shave your head? The answer is...... $5,500. That is what I raised for the MS society and then I let them shave my head. But before I let them shave my head, I bleached my hair blond. It was not a good look for me. Then I dyed it pink for awhile for my mom who is a breast cancer survivior. It was a worse look. Now I got that beautiful salt and pepper look going on till it grows in a little more. These are the pics you will be seeing as soon as I figure out how to get them off the C/D, on my computer, sized to fit and that you can see them, not just me.

Horsegirl, I wanted to post it on your TR, this girl could really use some long locks.

Now, Lou has me thinking, can you all see the little lightbulb over my head. Maybe this is really not happening and I am on that island in Lost and you are all a dream. Only I see stuff, not you.

I picked a screen name that says I love my Grandbabies. I never thought it would lead to me wearing granny panties and telling you all this stuff so you don't think I am using the computer at the senior center.

Geez, I got work to do. I will try to get pics up later. I will also take an English class to learn to write a real sentence.

OmG too funny and too sweet, gammygoo! I would love you with your baldness. You are beautiful inside and out lady. Hay, maybe you can pm snap a pic and she can put some hair on it for ya! ANd i think we need to put Melly and you on stage together for an improv! I am sure Lou wuold come going

Hay, sigourney had granny panties in alien, and i thought she still looked hot!

Please make me stop writing.....

 

[paslea_pooh]

SNAP You are such a sweetie for fixing that pic for Lala... It turned out great.

Yzma and Kronk.... Well, Kronk I know is from the Emperors New Groove. I know this b/c, my DD Abby (now 5), watched this movie Constantly and I used to call her Kronk, I still do ! She's my little Kronk,kronkster,kronkie... Yzma... not sure about that name.

Grammy..

You crack me up ! Can I take that English class with you? I always put commas in the wrong places ! If you're stuck on the island like in Lost, then we are too.... Who's turn is it to stay in the Hatch? Do the numbers have to be typed in exact order to reset the clock?

horsegirl....

I know it's a unicorn, but it was the closest thing I could find to a horse. I hope I didn't go overboard on your TR. I can edit it, I don't want you getting in any sorta trouble over there... You know those mods like to crack the whip !

Polymelonmom

Luuuuuucy! I's home....


And this guy

is just plain creepydee!!!


Here's my Kronk !!

 

[Yzma and Kronk]

Maelstrom..........is a fastpass?


Hey all - just taking a break from spring cleaning out the closets.
This living up north is a lot of work. Switching over the winter stuff and replacing it with the spring/summer stuff Awful job!

The only positive is sometimes I find spare change in the pockets However, the used "snotrags" are gross!

SoNotaPrincess: WOW! Fabulous work. I didn't know you could do that on a computer. I'm so impressed. Ain't technology wonderful

LaLa - beautiful picture. Suitable for framing!!

Horsegirl - no reference. To reference Tiger Woods, "I was just having a Spaz moment" (*** was that, I thought it was hysterical that he used that term, now some politically correct group is all over him......bunch of spazzes!!)

Paslea Pooh - Yzma is Kronk's sidekick. She is the skinny purple one, voiced by Eartha Kitt - she was one of the Catwoman's on the original Batman from the 1960's. Anyway, Emperor is one of my fav. Disney movies. DH and I resembled Yzma and Kronk when we first got married. Except I wasn't ever purple.......well maybe during my Barney period......but I digress.......
Sadly, gravity and metabolism got the best of us.

Back to the front closet.........boy, do I ever need a Fastpass for this job!

K, I didn't know that was her name. I've never actually "watched" the movie, I just used to hear it as background noise around the house. But she's moved on to different movies now.

This is for your edit

 

[GeorgiaAristocat]

Morning (still) Mouseketeers!

I hate it when I have to go off and miss everything.

Pongo - as everyone said, just let your friend know that you are there for them. It is a difficult thing to go through. One of my best friends has lost three, and the doctor's still don't know why. She is close to the end of her rope. Flowers, and cards, and good thoughts are the best things to pass on. Remember also to include the father - he has lost a baby, too, and they often get overlooked b/c it wasn't "their" body.

Grammy - yeah! you figured out the picture thing. I was about to suggest that anyone who couldn't just e-mail the pic to one of us that COULD and we could post for you.

Minnie - Glad to hear that flight arrangements are made - have a great trip!

jamal - furious with you. really. I'm not speaking to you anymore. Ever. Until you post the next time.

Seriously, it's been a little quiet this week what with the holidays and SNAPs trip and all. Beautiful pic btw SNAP and LaLa.

Everyone else - I need to catch up on trip reports, especially to find out who is getting collectively called out by Maelstromers and for calling Horseypoo a liar. Corrective action is definitely called for. We are like a lion pride - mess with one, mess with all, so watch out!

Okay - hopefully I'll be around a little more today and tomorrow so I don't have to keep doing these mass address posts.
