By the way --- what time do you arrive Friday? Any chance of Hook's Pointe then?

So far, I have the Blue Bayou for Wednesday night and Napa Rose for Thursday night, which is the day we get married. I had contemplated Hook's Point for Friday night.

I still have no idea what the festivities are going to be.

oops...didn't see this part of your post (I stopped reading at the underline!)

WELL.....if I actually took a half day off on Friday, instead of just trying to sneak out a few hours early....a dinner would be possible. I'm sure Cheri wouldn't object to goining earlier and we'd want to allow time to be caught in a bit of traffic, since we'd be hitting that part of CA in the 5 o'clock hour. Hmmmmmmmm......I'll check on Monday and make sure this is doable, though I don't see why not.

Oh, Shannon, I was supposed to tell you when I was staring to get tired. I started an hour ago. Now I can barely keep my eyes open, so I'm leaving you gals too! Goodnight!

PARTY POOPER!!!

Probably but I miss everyone, even the people I hated!

Who??? Oh never mind... this is a family board... PM me... unless I'm one of them... then... oh well...

Good night Holly - I should be good for another 2 hours then If I'd remember that 3 hour difference a while ago, I wouldn't have had to post asking what time zone you and Michelle are in (DUH!)

It just gets darker here... but lighter where Marilyn is...

You're a puss too!

Look!!! It's Nan!!! See Holly... you weren't drinking alone...

(I know Nan... SLAP!!!)

 

[Tink rules]

I think that's the list, not sure but Michelle was a maybe...Michelle any news?

Hi Nan, Hi Michelle!

Nan, where are you guys staying? Do you have an expected arrival time, or is your actual departure time still TBA?

we are staying at HoJo. At the latest we will leave town at 3pm (when Wilson is out of school) but going to try to leave at noon, it will depend on their teachers that week, but I think we will leave at noon. That makes as arriving around 6 or 7 but the problem is that we ALways get stuck in LA traffic when we come, so 6 or 7 can turn into 8, 9 or 10pm.

I did find out that our APs are valid for both Sat & Sunday so we may do the park on each day, or maybe not, just open to whatever the flow is for the group.

Thank you for asking.

No, I think I'm fine, and am going to be fine.

It was more like grit and not big shards of glass. Though I do have a odd sudden craving for Windex.

when you are done with them, send them to our house to sprinkle some good dust here.

My mom's house escrow closed yesterday and she was suppose to have the cash, but it hasn't appeared yet. What a hassle tracking it down will be my Monday job...

Nothing seems to be simple these days does it? What a pain. Though great that things have completed.

Yeah... about underwear... right Nan???

I just had a brainstorm idea for my bedroom! OK, my bed is one of those twin size ones that has 2 layers of drawers underneath. The drawers are only on one side, so 1/2 of the space under my bed is wasted. I tried having it out from the wall a bit, but it was just too awkward to get around it because the room isn't much longer than my bed, so it was hard to walk around the end of the bed. I was thinking, if I put it in one corner stretching diagonally across the room, I'd still have room at the opposite corner for a corner computer desk, then I'd have the other 2 corners/sides of the room for a dresser and other stuff, AND I'd be able to access the space underneath the bed for storage!

Not sure if I described that right, but I think it will work. Now I need to do some measuring to figure out which corner to have the front of the bed. I think I know and will spend this weekend rearranging! Tyler will love helping with that. He loves moving heavy stuff around and his OT says heavy pushing and pulling is very, very good for his sensory issues.

Holly just hang that sucker from the ceiling and you'll have plenty of floor space!!!

OK! I drop off the face of the earth for a few months and you folks burn through four threads?

I could only scan through the last few days of posts, no way I can read all of them. Hope every body is doing well. DEB does keep me up to speed with most of what is going on.

Hi John!!! Miss you!!!

Hi John!!! Sometimes there are only a few posts, sometimes a few pages, and sometimes like last night there are drunken parties going on!!!

I did not drink... honest... Holly and the girls did enough for all of us...

Old movie He is the TITLE character, a very brave water boy with the British lancers in India. last line of the film "you are a better man than I, Gunga Din"

And then right after that that darned Lassy came along and saved Timmy from the Well...

Isn't it great that the servers enter into the fun like this?

As it happened, our 'chocolate slipper dessert' looked like a chopped up lizard didn't it?

I wonder if they are serving that on this trip... & I'm a bit that they'd have a rubber lizard in the kitchen..

I want a coffee and a chocolate strawberry tart in Cove Cafe right now. Preferably with a sprinkling of Dis friends!

Yeah... tell those people to get off of OUR ship!!! How dare they try and copy our PC repo!!!

BTW... I liked the almond cookies the best.

Marilyn:

I have a collect starting to gather from my Molly for your GD Molly. Books and such. I've collected them since she was born and some of them she has completely outgrown. Does anyone in your family have a cassett player?

 

[Tink rules]

Did Sukie ever leave the Cove Cafe?

No... he's still there... He's on his 89th CC card... (but he's sleeping just fine...)

Change of plans yet again for next May.

We are going to Florida only and spending 16 days with our daughter, son in law and 4 children!!!

This is the last time they can go slightly out of school holidays as her children's school have a slightly different holiday to others, so hopefully not as busy a time.(Though Memorial Day is just after they arrive) We never thought they would go, so we think it worth cancelling the big trip for this. going to be a lot of fun.

We will still have a good 4 weeks ourselves, but will visit some other areas of Florida. We are booking a villa for our stay with the family.

Where are those tranquillisers.

I think Steve said he would come, but have not seen him around here in quite a while.

I might have even convinced Michelle to come down to our level of accommodation.

Ian I think you are correct

Kelly, I never heard from Steve on if he could attend, but I think he did mention it on the thread, can you add him to the list? Let me know if you need his email address, I've got our master list with all them on it. I think you might have it too.

Come on Michelle, slum it with the rest of us

The HoJo looked pretty cool. I'm glad for the tip it really is much more affordable that the Dland Hotels.

We are back from our Saturday morning trip out.

We took Mrs. Fezziwig to the dealer to get a bath, so she would not be a dirty girl.

Then we went to a big farmers market and from there, to Bed Bath and Beyond to buy a new blender.

I have a blender story from last night.

Since we have been both heavily back into WW, we have been using WW Smoothie mix to have a smoothie every night. Typically I add some ice and frozen fruit. It comes out to about 1 point for each of us, or about 2 points for the entire blender jar.

We had a Waring blender that we got in around 1991, so we've had it for years. It was one of the models with a sealed bottom. You know, the blades were integrated and could not be removed from the blender jar.

Last night, it was leaking fiercely out of the bottom with frozen smoothie going everywhere, oozing out all over the counter. I did manage to salvage about half a glass for each of us. Vanilla-Banana-Mango and it was great.

My half came out of what was left in the blender.

It was odd, because there was grit in my smoothie. I thought is was bits of ice that had not been blended, that is until I got to the bottom of the glass, and realized that the bits had not been ice, but bits of glass.

It was not sharp shards but little pieces more like sand (the blender jar is rather heavy glass).

I did not tell Sukie about it last night, but did while we were driving around today. He promptly proceeded to freak out in the car.

"You fed me broken glass?!?"

I looked at him and said, "You know, you can never get too much silica in your diet."

I told him to look on the bright side. To my knowledge, glass is zero points.

At Bed Bath and Beyond, when trying to choose a blender, Sukie asked the store clerk, which blender jar tasted best.

We bought a Krups, with powerful motor and the blades unscrew and remove for cleaning.

If Sukie doesn't watch out, I'm going to put a Brillo pad in his next smoothie. I suspect he needs more iron in his diet.
