I just got a message from the Plankman... he told me to tell you he misses you all but you need a smile for today... Even though he's not up to this point in his TR...(he's been too busy answering his fan mail...) He thought perhaps you might need a reminder of your vacation..

Re: hotels in the DL area, this weekend Dylan and I are staying at the Park Vue Inn. Never stayed there before. It's directly across from the DL entrance on Harbor. The Trip Advisor reviews are mostly OK. It includes breakfast, has WIFI and it's $603 for 4 nights. We often stay at the DL Hotel but the rooms were $300 night! I'll report on it after the trip.

That is the Best Western, right? We've stayed there a few times. It's fine, not fancy. I can't say that I remember the food, which makes me think that we didn't eat the breakfast that was offered.

Hi all...we are having a heat wave here in nor cal. It was 113 today at my office. RIDICULOUS!
My friends are having a blast on the magic. They are now 3 days in and enjoying every minute. As we all knew they would.

I hope the weather cooperates for the wedding in sept. I wouldn't want sukie to be uncomfortable on his special day!

Have a great wednesday!

I'd thought about it, but his dad already has plans to take him camping this weekend. The round trip drive to my dad's is 3 hours anyway, and that doesn't work on a weeknight with Tyler. By the time I get out of work and pick him up, it would be bedtime by the time we get to my dad's and then he's grouchy and having a meltdown and it's no fun for anybody.

Can the whole party be on Sunday when Tyler can go?

DID WE HAVE A RUG LIKE THIS ON THE GANGWAY AT CASTAWAY CAY?

Those videos are a hoot! I've stayed at the HoJo, about a year ago with my nephew. It was nice. I also stayed there in May 07 when I went to the POC premier.

I agree with everything Ian says! They also offer an AP rate, but I think the Entertainment Rate, if it's available, is the cheapest.

AP?

Advanced Placement
Animator's Palate

Tyler's out of the bath now, so we're off to play and read bedtime books. Funny story first: I just learned a lesson. Don't let a bubble bath fill up while reading and responding to "just one post". By the time I remembered to check on the tub, it was filled to the top with water and bubbles were coming over the top! Oops!

Back later.

Oops!

I would like to be back there right now. I want to see things I didn't see and take pictures. I don't know why i didn't take pictures! Also, of course, the whole cruise would be right in front of me to enjoy again.

Yes, it's on Thursday at the Orange County Old Courthouse. Regarding the celebration, the wedding planners, Nan and Kelly haven't revealed to me yet what is happening!

You are very brave!

Today was a horrible day. Way too much stress and conflict.

Right at 5PM two of my colleagues had a really nasty fight, well it was more like one of them beating up the other. I wanted to crawl under my desk. I stayed late to make sure the remaining one was OK.

I subsequently had to take a later train. Missed my train and because it was now 6PM the trains were not running every 10 minutes. I had to wait 45 minutes for train, and then it was late.

I'll be happy to just crawl into bed and forget about today.

Grown professional men fighting at work? Good of you to stay and see that one was ok even though it made such a delay to your travelling and spoiled your evening.

I see Jackie!!!

Good Morning

I am happy now as engineer came this morning and fixed my pc and mondem.

Lucky I got up at 8.30 am and the engineering arrived at 8.45 am (lucky I got change my clothes)

Nan, I like the apology note idea for the other child's parents. I do remember now after another incident (Tyler had put his hands around the throat of his good friend, Tolkien), the psychologist we saw a couple times suggested we be proactive and bring it up to the parents before they had a chance to react and explain to them that there are issues we're seeking treatment for and apologize. Well, I did so, and was in contact with both moms (not 2 different kids involved, Tolkien just has 2 moms) and they each told me they already knew something was different with Tyler and that they had chalked the incident up to whatever his issues are. They knew he didn't mean it because they can see how much the 2 boys like each other. The boys still get together, I've become friends with the moms, and we have an open invitation to go swimming at their house anytime. Tolkien is a great kid and very supportive of Tyler.

So......long-winded way of saying, yes, I will send an apology note to Austin's parents (the current victim).

Holly

that is good that they not put Tyler out as they still keep together and they know about Tyler.

I'd thought about it, but his dad already has plans to take him camping this weekend. The round trip drive to my dad's is 3 hours anyway, and that doesn't work on a weeknight with Tyler. By the time I get out of work and pick him up, it would be bedtime by the time we get to my dad's and then he's grouchy and having a meltdown and it's no fun for anybody.

wow USA must be big place!! as I come from Aberdeen (north) as it take me 3 half hours to drive from Edinburgh.

and good to hear that doctor help you and sorry to heard about the prices for tablets.

Hopeful today is better day for you

YEAHHHHHHH! We're booked in Orlando for four nights at the end of Sept. We'll be there on 9/29 for our 18th wedding anniversary. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH! More mouse for me!

We priced it out and for lack of significant funds and available time off from work.......we unfortunately........so very unfortunately.........will not be able to attend the event of a century in LA at the beginning of Sept. I will say though that Sept is a great time of the year to get married. Then you can celebrate that time of the year every anniversary. It's worked out for John and me and I wish the same for you guys, Ian and Sukie. PLEASE Post Pictures and share with us on here.

Lisa/g520 Good luck to you and Darrell today with your home hunting in Jacksonville. We'll definitely be able to get together either passing through Jacksonville or in Orlando or both......perhaps with Monica too in Orlando. Mon, we'll be seeing you in Orlando with or without Lisa and Darrell. I say the more the merrier if possible.

We're renting a car from here and driving down between Wed 9/24 night and Thurs 9/25 morning. We'll do one overnight on the way down in one of the Carolinas.....that will be on Thurs night. Then we'll be in Jacksonville on Fri 9/26 sometime between breakfast and lunch. Or we could just go and check in early on Friday and meet up with you all in Orlando. We're staying at Staybridge Suites right down the road from DTD. We're staying four nights. Monday 9/29 is our anniversary. We'll leave Tues 9/30 morning and do another overnight on the drive home and be home on Wed 10/1.

We can make some decisions as the time gets closer. I just wanted Lisa and Monica to have our travel schedule.

Good morning all!

Sitting here, eating breakfast and listening to Public Radio. They had a piece on the heat wave in California and I saw the posting with the 118F!

According to Mrs. Bennett, it is supposed to get up to about 80F here today.

Well, today is another day, though I am not looking forward to what I anticipate will be the "atmosphere" in the office after the fight yesterday afternoon. I think it might be ugly today.

FYI, it was not two men, it was a woman and a man with the female colleague being on the offensive. In reality everyone (including me) contributed in some way to the issue, though it was a little staggering the attack she made.

I however, for once in my life used good judgment and did not put my oar in .

--------------------------------------------

On to other, more pleasant things, as we were watching the History Detective last night, I share with Sukie some of Nan's postings.

He said, "I'm not getting any say in this am I?"

I said, "I suppose not. It's all being organized. We only need do as we're told."

YEAHHHHHHH! We're booked in Orlando for four nights at the end of Sept. We'll be there on 9/29 for our 18th wedding anniversary. YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH! More mouse for me!

We're there on the 14th of Sept until the 19th. Girl trip!

 

[iankh]

OK - this morning on the bus ride to work I finally listened to myself on the podcast and the interview I gave.

I think I sounded pretty good, if I do say so myself.

Ian - hope this day goes ok.

Loved Sukie's remarks re: Nan's remarks.
