TKers Take the Fifth!

[LivinInTheCastle]

Here is one more of my youngest nephew fooling around in a window in the photopass help line!!

 

[mariezp]

I am not sure there is a way to resize them here but when you upload to Photobucket there is a drop down menu where you can select the size to save it as. I am not overly familiar with Photobucket. I use Webshots which has an option to select codes for various sizes. Can anybody else help out?

BTW, you nephew is a real cutie!


SCHBR'smom, I just noticed your siggie. You have a beautiful family there!

 

[LivinInTheCastle]

Thanks Marie, for both the help and the compliment. Here goes I am going to try one more.

 

[LivinInTheCastle]

Hey it worked! I'm not as dumb as I thought,

 

[SCHBR'smom]

Thanks, Marie, I was just updating my siggie

And, I agree, LITC, your nephew is a cutie!

 

[Pikester]

LITC: Those photos! OMG!

Wendy:

pepper:

SCHBR'smom:

Bopsmom: Get well soon.

BKMETV: Great picture!

Have a good night!

I'M BACK!!!!!!​

Just popping in quick before I finish reading all that I missed. Couldn't y'all have posted less while I was gone?

Vacation was great!!!!!!!!!!! I'll tell you all about it later.

A big HELLO!!! to the new Tkers!!! I'm the resident trouble-maker....that is if you ask M&N.

 

[LivinInTheCastle]

RACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was just thinking about you. Can't wait to hear all about the trip, and sorry we got so chatty. Hope you can catch up without a problem.

Congrats to you Wendy and your daughter! She rocks!

Thanks also to SCHBRsmom! He's quite a handful, lol!

 

[racetrack18kb]

Yep...gotta pick up the pace around here. Miss a day, miss a lot. And, our official "talker" is on vacation right now. When Racetrack gets back, look out.

Thanks for the support-Now racer can't just blame me for talking behind her back. Maybe she'll be so busy, she won't pick up on it!

I HEARD THAT!!!

Hey LITC!!!! Missed all of you so much. I can't believe vacation is over already.

I have a teeny, tiny confession to make. I think I am an Universal convert. I know, I know, this is a Disney Board but I just have to say how incredible it was there.

LITC, how are you feeling?

And I just have to say I hope everyone is starting to feel better.

Bopsmom, you keep us updated. And try to take care of yourself too.

whgrn, congrats to DD!!!!!!!!!

M&N, I need to catch up on the racing before I can give you any grief about talking smack about Kyle.

Shmu, OMG!!! so nice to see you here again. Missed you so much.

pepper, sorry we missed each other. But DH has fallen in love with VA beach. I think we'll be back.

 

[LivinInTheCastle]

Hey Race, baby wise all is good.
Still feeling kind of cruddy from the sinus infection. They didn't ogive me the normal medicine I get for them, because of the baby so I am not getting better as fast, but I am improving so I will take it!
I can't really say anything about universal, I haven't been there since there was only 1 park and that was when I was in HS. I am really glad you had a good time there. I will definitely have to check it out again sometime!

 

[racetrack18kb]

I had an aweful cold with my first pregnancy. It takes me forever to get over colds as it is and that one felt like it was an eternity. It just takes time since your body is working on keeping the baby healthy. Oh, and I didn't want to take anything for the cold even what they said I could. I was weird that way.

I still love Disney. Nobody can equal the MAGIC there. But Universal was like Disney on steroids. My kids are older and that made a big difference. Plus having front of the line access to everything is something that fast passes can't live up to.

Good morning! Wow...it was crazy busy on here last night. It was wonderful to see all the chatter today. LITC....those pictures are priceless and really made me laugh out loud.

Wendy, congrats to DD on her amazing weekend!

Racetrack!!! How ya doing, girl? I guess the trip went very well and cannot wait to here more about it. Don't feel too conflicted about actually liking US. I do, it provides a different, wonderful experience. Since you're moving anyway, you can just get APs! I got a 2 year AP for the ridiculous price of $179, you can't beat that! So glad to see you back, we missed you.

LITC, you get better! and that nephew of yours is absolutely scrumptious! Glad to see you got the hang of photobucket!

Why is Staples having a school supply sale this week? School isn't even out yet....

The Lakers won last night. My mother actually called from work to gloat. I will say I do have a little crush on Pau Gasol--seven feet of yummy! And I did think Kobe was really cute with his little girls...Orlando is a young vibrant team, and no one thought they'd make it into the finals anyway, so you go Magic!

Happy Monday everyone!

 

[BKMETV]

Good Monday Morning:

Welcome Back Racer!!

The sun is shining...hopefully summer is finally coming!

It is finally warm enough to go in the pool. Its about 84 here and perfect. Don't need it to get any warmer. Can just stay like this all summer.

Kid's were in ours yesterday...water is still around 70*F because it's been so cold we haven't turned the heater on yet. Kid's are still in school for a couple more weeks so didn't seem worth it yet.

EV: Great pic! Thanks for sharing. When does it warm up? Can you manage to go swimming in the lake?

Usually the lake is warm by now but with the rotten weather we've had it's still only in the 50s. All the kids were in though!

Bopsmom, you poor dears!!! I hope y'all feel better SOON!

Had a GREAT weekend! DD apparently has traded in her arms for waterwheels. She ended up with a silver in a team medley relay, and 3 golds, for 50M freestyle, 50M backstroke, and a team freestyle relay!

We are sooooooooo proud of our little fishy! I will post pix when I am not so tired. Absolutely exhausted, and my voice is gone too. Guess I cheered louder than I should have...

ok testing this out, now does anyone know how to size pics?

gee thanks...I always wanted to be in a Star Wars movie!! Cute Nephew BTW!!

Welcome Back

Middle DD starts her first summer camp tomorrow. It will be the first time she has done anything without one of her siblings near by.

Is it a day camp? I hope she enjoys it.

I'M BACK!!!!!!​

I don't think we posted too much while you were gone...you don't really have to read it all...It's not like we talked behind your back or anything.

YEAH!

Great job! I guess you should have lost your voice with all that cheering. It was worth it for sure!

Darn it! I was the victim of a post lost in cyberspace! Typed some a bit earlier, came back and it was gone! I think I may have inadvertently closed the tab but, nonetheless, I have to start all over.

M&N,
How old were you when you retired? My DH has talked about how he would like to retire early for years. There are a few problems with his idea though. First off we have done a horrible job of saving for his retirement. With me staying home with the kids we have chosen to make somewhat of a sacrifice in the financial department, but it has been so worth it. Still it does not leave a lot left to put back. Even more than the lack of savings though is the lack of desire to stop spending! I have pretty much leveled out on things I want but DH always seems to need that something else which generally comes with a steep price tag. And, it always amazes me how he just EXPECTS the money to be there. Maybe someday he will realize that he is certainly helping to delay his own retirement.

Never take responsibility...it's always the computer's fault...

I have to fight with myself sometimes to get up for church too. I figure that the message that day must be really geared toward me! Sounds like DD will be enjoying children's church for a while!

In PA, teachers can retire with 35 years and I was 57 because I got the job right out of college and did not have time off for kids like my friends. I don't have a separate retirement fund from my state one. I jokingly said what good would it have done? People have lost much of theirs anyway. It helps that I have no dependents..no hubby to worry about...just myself. Several friends have husbands without retirement funds or health insurance. I can keep my schools insurance until SS. I have to pay it all, over $8,000, except for the 100 a month the state pays. I guess I didn't answer your question...! was 57--bday in Aug and retirement in June so I can say 57 instead of 58!

Loving the pics! Better post before I loose this...

Welcome back racetrack18kb! Glad you had fun. I like US also, just not as much as Disney.
LivinInTheCastle Pictures made me laugh. That was as close to watching AI I'll ever get.
whgrn Congrats to your fast swimming DD!

[M&N]

[SCHBR'smom]

Help!!!!!! Got a house full of boys today who have taken over. And its only day 2 of vacation.

I feel your pain. My head is killing me (and that's from one who is always at home.)

 

[MagiKitty]

All you Moms out there! I don't know how y'all do it. Hoping some extra from over here will help you out somehow....
