I'm sure it was, but not by me.

only to say that i christened the castle.

and the poly holds nothing for me. I like the contemporary. and i'm pissed they closed the restaurant near the buffet.

yep the Concourse Steakhouse is gone, the new restaurant is called The Wave, tried to get ADR's for Sept. all booked up and they don't even have a menu posted yet.

Shannone, how was the concert? Any awards?

Shannone, how was the concert? Any awards?

The concert was great, thanks for asking . DD did a great job. She played piano for jazz band and alto sax for 8th grade band. She didn't get either of the awards though. The other band parents we are friends with all expected her to get one...my friend was even video taping it she was so sure. One award was voted on my the students and some cute, little popular girl got it. DD and her friends all said that girl barely shows up and doesn't put any extra effort into anything. It was a popularity vote Her band teacher even told her privately afterwards that he was sure she would get it. The other award was a $200 scholarship that was narrowed down to 3 kids, one being my DD. The three of them wrote essays and a panel chose the best essay. The boy that won is a really good student and a very nice boy. My dd was happy for him. He is going to use the money towards band camp. It's a tough life lesson...but the best person doesn't always win. And you have to deal with it and move on, you know ??

 

[seabee]

Very true. I'm glad the concert went well though!

 

[PolynesianPixie]

Happy the concert was good!



We got our pool open! Now we're ready for summer!!!!

That looks mighty inviting, Ami!!

Well, isn't this just my luck????

I thought I should have received my "stimulus" money last Friday because I file my taxes using Turbo Tax. Seems that I'm wrong!

I just read on the Turbo Tax site that because refunds/or payments are done thru a 3rd party bank, the IRS does not have access directly to my bank account. Therefore, I will receive the stimulus money via a paper check on July 11th.

I wasn't planning on doing anything immediate with the money - just stashing it away to use for my MH insurance in November - but that's 2 months worth of interest I won't be getting. Arrrrgh!!

I can't say how sad I am to hear the stories of missing parents and grandparents. My DD's father wasn't in her life as a child....now he is dying from M. S. and wishing he had spent more time with them...now my DGD is going through the same thing with her father and his family. I've spent all the time I could with my kids and still do...now my DD and DGD have moved to NJ and it's broken my heart...I call them 2-3 day everyday just to hear that sweet baby's new words and what she is doing...yesterday she got her first real injury...MiMi was there on the phone to tell them how to handle it...now I have to go find "a prize" because she was a good girl and let Mommy hold her til she stopped bleeding. She is terrified of doctors because she has been so much in the past 2 years (brain tumor) >>>>I told her I was going to the beach this weekend and asked her if she wanted me to send her a seashell....she said no I want you to send me a present lol....can ya tell her MiMi has spoiled her a bit? anyway....just be the loving parents you are and hold your kids close to your heart! you will be blessed by it in the future!!!

That looks mighty inviting, Ami!!

For Florida, I'm sure......here, it has barely reached 70 degrees. My bare legs won't touch that water until late July!

I'm sorry about your mula! I used Turbo Tax and mine was direct deposited

 

[AuburnJen92]

Shannone, glad the concert went well. I am sure she played great!

Ami, I am coming over to swim, although it might take a while to get there!

Deb, hold on, the check is in the mail!

It doesn't take as long to sum up lately does it? What did everybody do? Go out and get lives or something?????

 

[ntsammy5]

- but that's 2 months worth of interest I won't be getting. Arrrrgh!!

That works out to $4-$5, if that!

I use Turbo Tax and there was no problem depositing to my account. That sounds fishy. As long as the IRS has your transit number and account number there should be absolutely no problem. Interesting.

 

[Gatordad]

it doesn't matter if you used turbo tax or not, they only direct deposit if you electronically file.

 

[Us3]

Morning all!

Woo-hoo, our pool opens up this weekend too.

Shannone, I'm glad to hear the concert went well! Did you send pics to your mom??


This is the last week of school for us. Things are so crazy around here. I'm doing lots of stuff for the end of year party, work is CRAZY right now, I"m trying to wash and pack for Disney, trying to find a dog sitter...and dd2 and dd3 are keeping me on my toes this week! I'm going to be so exhasted by the time we leave early Sunday morning for the Fort! But it'll all we worth it once we are there!

OH. That makes sense.
