Useless Facts/Chit Chat Thread

My oldest is 11 1/2. She is very emotional! My DD6 has was born that way, though! Seriously, she can "work it" like I've never seen! She could charm anybody into (or out of) anything. I am completely frightened of what she is going to be like as a teen ! Luckily my DD8 is still sweet


btw, we4mickey~ you got post 2700

Ive posted this before way back when I first started to make posts on the DIS....but is like somebody snuck in your house and kidnapped your perfect, sweet little loving angel....and left you with this half grown wench who thinks she knows EVERYTHING, and doesnt need your opinion or approval......

BRING MY KIDS BACK, And take these monsters you left here away!!!

My husband has this theory that when the kids start to get older we parents start to feel all sad about how quickly they've grown and where the time has gone. THEN they get really HORRIBLE.(As if their bodies have been taken over by aliens and they are our pod children. .Oh..they may look the same but they have personalities that make you want to shake them and scream "WHERE IS MY CHILD AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH HIM?" He believes God makes them this way, so that we parents will then start to feel better about them getting older and by the time their ready to go we're packing the clothes and locking the door behind them!

What can I say..he's deep ...or he's just REALLY tired of kids! Gotta love em!

Yep, I hear ya! My DD is 8.5 and it's already started. God help us all! Fortunately my son is very even keeled. My husband lays awake at night thinking of the teenage years with my daughter and I. I keep telling him not to worry about it...I can take her!

Fortunately my son is very even keeled.

Watch out for those even keeled ones. My older son is that way, and his brother bounces off the walls, but anyway, the older one just took it, and took it, and took it, then BAM!!!! his brother found himself slammed against the wall.

Okay so I spent way more time scanning this thread today than my boss needs to know about, and here's what I came away with.

Someone here really likes waffles.

I couldn't see "Kate" because pictures don't show at work. So I think I'm out of the loop on that one.

It's a big deal to be the 1,000, 2000th or any even 100# post. (Did I get one?)

And, the coolest people hang out here.

I have an 18 yo son, 15 yo daughter and 10 yo daughter. The wise man who says God just wants you to be ready to let go is so right. My kids are great but they are all underachievers, which is hugely frustrating!

My 15 yo is actually excited to be at the campground this summer, which is a relief to everyone.

Okay got to go for a minute 10yo wants to eat. Go figure.

HappyCampers87 this should be your avatar , I got this off of the creative board and have had it saved on my computer:

 

[BigDaddyRog]

Hehe and the kids look pretty knocked out too, what's that all about ?

 

[HappyCamper87]

I LOVE that avatar!

Terri01P you are so sweet.

Could you direct me on how to make this possible? I am so not computer literate. Or a good speller for that matter. I like to type though.

I love that picture.

Ok I'll try to help you...lol...GOD help us all...


Ok first I want you to know that rumbleytumbley over on the creative board made this design for me...so all credit goes to her...she also won't care if you use it as your avatar she's a great sweet person.

On the picture up there right click and save it to your computer (mine says.. save picture as ) .

Your going to have to save it to a host, so I use photobucket.com, it's free, so sign up and upload the picture there.

Then you can resize it to avatar size.

Then you will have to go to your user CP here and download the avatar just like you did for the one you got now.

I'm not good at explaining how to do it but others will chime in to help if you need other assistance.

Hope I could help a little. Terri

Okay Rog, I know you were in the parks more than at your cabin last December ---- but take a look at the background of the picture Terri posted. They aren't even at frikken FtW!!! WDW doesn't pay Mickey, Minnie, et al, enough to enable them to stay at FtW!!! So... they have to travel out west & dry camp on federal lands for free. That's why they can have an open fire. They also need the fire to cook the prairie dogs & jack-a-lope's they catch for eats. Goofy & Donald are drinking the Kungaloosh they nicked from the otters and peacocks at FtW.

That's the way I see it!

Hugs!
Deb

That great but who the heck can see that ? Can you get it to where the normal person without super sonic eyes can see it.

It should be the size of mine or like BigDaddy's , can someone help ?

 

[HappyCamper87]

My DD is chanting eww... I'm good, I'm good.... "Aren't you glad you have a non-computer challanged daughter". Aren't kids grand!

 

[BigDaddyRog]

I was coming back to help out and she already got it on her own!!!!WTG!!!

 

[terri01p]

Way to sum up the forum!!!

BTW~Kate is from that show "Lost" and Ynottony seems to be almost as crazy about her as he is the Mickey waffles! I'm sure you could google her to find out about what the hub-ub is all about. That is, if you can tell by looking at her picture. Personally, I don't think she's somethin' special

 

[HappyCamper87]

Oh... Okay, now I know who Kate is. Yes, very cute.... Yadda, Yadda, Yadda.

Thanks again terri01P - Love my New Avatar - I keep pronouncing it wrong as DD points out. Please thank your friend for me too and tell her she just spread a little happiness. I am easily entertained with anything Mickey.

I have to go now I think DH is feeling neglected.

Spent some time ewwing and awwing in the trailer tonight, have to keep pinching myself - It looks like it should belong to someone else.

Best Wishes and Happy Camping!

peach snapps, melon liquer, cream d mint, orange & pineapple juice. Go easy on the cream d mint or it tastes like medicine. a sweet, smooth, delicious drink.....

I am honoring you all tonight by drinking this Whelsh Dragon concoction and watching "Men in Trees"

I'm not sure if I got the balance right on this drink, but it is yummy!
