The "Waiting for ROFR" support group thread

There's no estoppifying this group!

Estoppifying. I need to figure our how to work this into my next presentation for work. (Sad part is, I can't stop repeating it in my head)

I just wanted to join in here is a picture of me at the beach last year, it was a little windy out my shirt blew wide open. This was about two weeks before we all jumped in car to head off for Disney.

You could be my twin!! How eerie!

Toooooo FFFFUUUNNNNNNNNYYYY!!!!

Thanks tammymacb! It was a tough choice between BC (kids love SAB) and BWV, but I can get more for my points at BWV (and with money I've saved by buying at BWV, I can find a good therapist that will help the kids get over that scary clown at the Luna pool ). ..

You too!!?? That thing gives me nightmares!!!

Too cute!!!


Good Morning all!!! Another work day...yuck. Came downstairs this am and the house smells slightly like smoke. I think DH with his super sensitive shnoz will notice right away. I have some splaining to do, Lucy. Oh, well. He may never leave me home with matches again.

Have a terrific day!! Here's hoping our streak of good luck keeps going today!

BUAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA


Good Morning Sunshines!

I'm off, this morning, to the beginning of a depressingly long stretch of work. My next day off will be 12 days from now.

It's ok though, my recent DVC buying spree has lowered my funds significantly.

See everyone this evening and have a great day!

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!!!!!

Well, I watched my check travel to Florida and I requested a copy of the signature receipt from USPS - you can do that right online on the tracking page of the USPS.com. I received that last night so I know they got it and I plan to leave them all alone for now. I know they have to wait for the seller's stuff so I will wait a while and see what happens

DID YOU CLOSE YESTERDAY????? I have skimmed through quick but didn't know if I missed it? The 9th has come and gone

NICE PICTURE - I too will meet you for lunch, LOL

That is what I love about this group, so supportive and full of spunk.

Have a great day everyone!

Good Morning All, this pic was taken at sunrise at Disney's Vero Beach Resort during our November 2002 vacation.

Makes me think of the Lion King when the hyenas get all "weird" when they hear, "Mufasa."

Estoppifying, estoppified, estoppifying, estoppified...

Well, yea, we are friendly. But loonie? Definately.

You wouldn't believe what I did today. Please don't laugh but I have to share this one!

I had a boat load of personal stuff that needed shredded. You know, cc offers, receipts and junk like that. I decided it was too much to shred so I would throw it in the fireplace and burn it. We had a fire a couple of weeks ago and I was sure that DH closed the flue. So I reach in and flip the thingy the opposite way that it is. I have started maybe 2 fires in the 11 years we have lived here. I throw the stuff in, light it, close the doors and run to the kitchen. I come back to find the fire box full of smoke. He never closed it!!! Now.....I can't reach in and open it because of the flames. I grabbed the nearest thing, which was a mixing bowl and filled it with water. I threw that on the fire and guess what!!?? More smoke!! It did put out most of it so I opened windows, let the dogs out into the back yard and ran for more water. So, now the fire is out and I go through the house opening windows so the smoke detector won't go off. I brought every fan we own to the family room and turned of the furnace. I had to take another shower because I smelled like smoke and spent the afternoon in my winter clothes with the windows open. I can still smell it but I think it is because I have wet, burnt papers in my fireplace. I can't just throw them away but I can't burn them either. Yuck!!!

Man do I need some Disney!! What a day! I am glad that DH is gone until Friday! Maybe the smell will go away by then. How do I tell him this one!! "Honey, today I tried to burn down the house!!" DOH!

You said please don't laugh but it's really, really hard. I'm getting an ice cream headache holding it in. You said earlier you remembered the crossing over ceremony from cub scouts, you weren't a den leader were you? I just get this picture of you (my version of what you look like, now that I have posted you all know what I look like) standing in front of your fireplace with twelve, seven year old kids in their little cub scout outfits "Now boys, the first thing you want to do is assume the flue is closed so just reach in and switch it the other way, then..."

How can you not!!!! I can never go then because I coach football. That's a good deal. If you don't mind telling us how did you get around the DVC thing with free dining. Are you not staying on points?

 

[dvcnewgirl]

No I did not use points.. I am out.

Estoppifying, estoppified, estoppifying, estoppified...

The Mufasa/hyena thing is exactly what I was talking about! Still in my head for the drive in to work today. Estoppa (brrrrrrrrrrr) ESTOPPA (BRRRRRRRRRRRR).

Instead of a question of the day, maybe it is a quiz for the day:

How many different words can the group make out ofthe letters in estoppal?

1. stop - as in stops the whole process.

[Princess Amy Lyn]

Good Morning All!
How about

POSTAL-the act of waiting

That one just jumped out at me

 

[Princess Amy Lyn]

Ok they keep coming

LAPSE-Lapse of judgement right before POSTAL

APPLE-one rotten apple spoiles the whole barrel (aunt Edna)

POP-the sound the cork makes when celebrating ROFR

 

[Cherta]

Good morning everyone!

TOPPLE-over the edge of sanity if this thing doesn't wrap up soon....

PEST(er)-my TSS rep for any updates (although I know it's out of her hands now)....

 

[Tigger & Eeyore]

Postal - now that was a good one

I am being patient. Did not email to confirm she received things. I saw online that they did and it is hard not to email and say did the sellers return things to you But....... I am trying my best not to

1. stop - as in stops the whole process.

PETALS - what you push to make a bike go
STEAL - what you use to make moonshine
STAPLE - the pointy thing on top of the Baptist church
PLEAS - a magic word
PALS - what we are on this thread

And the way you guys make fun of my words, I guess I'm the only one who had to re-learn my estopplification tables before I took my final exam in rofr-ization!

and
LEAST - what you did 'cause you couldn't afford to buy it
PASTE - what you did while waiting for your child to be born (unless you are the MOM)
LAPSE - good places for grandbabies
