WBRepo-Ship of Thieves-Remember the Magic Pt6

[NotSoLittleMermaid]

Hi Cheri. I see you're gone but I wanted to say hi anyway!

It was just in one of those boxes that have everything you need. Mine was a Fresh and Easy brand but if you don't have those yet you can probably buy them at any grocery. Mine was.....surprise....three cheese It didn't taste like cheese though but it was good. It still took like 30 minutes so you have to have a little time.

Not yet. I think it will change after I take the 3 day class I need. There are a few positions I can't do until that class. I'm happy to be easing into it. Plus for some reason I am more motivated for the rest of the day after I work those few hours

I've gone to Fresh & Easy down in Phoenix/Scottsdale--they're wonderful! I wish we had one up here.

What class do you need to take? You never answered my question about what kind of job you have...that's OK, I won't take it personally....

Good Morning!

Very busy day yesterday. Our corporate Intranet launched. I've been working on this project since the end of June. We had a company lunch and learn where I did a demo. Now on to the next phase of the project.

I do have a new find for everyone:

Pandora Radio

I found out about via an email I received from Mrs. Bennett's parent, Chumby. It was about a new feature available (I already listen to streaming radio and internet radio via Mrs. Bennett).

Pandora allows you to create your own custom radio station that plays the genres, artists and songs that you want to hear. You can listen to your radio stations via your computer and other enabled devices.

I have set up several of my own custom stations. It's fabulous. It's also free.

You can find out more about it a www.pandora.com

Also, Holly as Tyler gets older more and more things will come into his life and both you and dad need to realize that's just how it goes. One of my girl scouts sees dad on Friday nights for dinner and a movie, but now that they are getting older they have events that happen on Friday night. Her dad is just going to have to get over it and change his night to accomodate what his daughter needs in her life. This really is no different that what we face in a married house hold. Kids events don't happen to make our life harder or easier, but we as parents can choose to embrace our childrens events and passions and all that comes with them or not. Says the weary mom that goes to wayyyyyyy to many go-kart races (that she really doesn't enjoy, because they have only outhouses for bathrooms

I understand this and have since the beginning, and actually have tried explaining it to his dad for quite some time because Tyler wanted to sign up for soccer a while back and his dad didn't want him to because everything was on a Saturday and he didn't want to have to get up early and do stuff.

My only problem is that we should discuss it before one of us signs him up for something and the scout thing didn't work that way because of them telling me the wrong day they thought his meetings would be, so I feel bad about forcing it on his dad. But oh well, not my fault, I never intended it that way, so he'll just have to deal with it.

Cute picture! And it looks like your kitchen vinyl is the same as mine! Is yours about 10 years old, too?

I actually have no idea because it was there when we moved in 3 years ago.

 

[HollyTyler]

This is no fun. Usually, I have to literally run back and forth in the office to get stuff done on time. Today I just can't do it. My body is stuck at turtle speed and I have no idea why. I feel like I could fall asleep sitting here.

Ok chatty people! I go away for a week and have over 50 pages to read on the old thread (which I had to go search for) PLUS 10 pages on this new thread! AACK!

First of all - had a good weekend w/ my sister & niece....Ian was gone until Sunday night at 6pm, so didn't get to spend too much time w/ him. We did spend some quality time together though after he got home.

Really tough leaving them yesterday....I really don't like knowing that it takes Sydney a while to warm back up to me and then I have to turn around and leave again. I keep remembering how close I was to Ian & the way our relationship grew & then I think about how little time I get to spend w/ Sydney. It makes me sad.....I really need to play the lottery so that I can fly up there more often.

I got to spend some good time w/ Lisa too....David (bil) was in Virginia so it was basically a girls weekend.

I'm sure you CA folks heard about it, but for anybody who hasn't: http://blog.wired.com/cars/2008/09/the-road-as-roc.html

That is hilarious, I'd never heard of it, but Lancaster is a long way away from us.

Thanks Deb & Michelle for the Broadway ticket leads. I've been researching the shows and reported to my sis tonight. Since she's paying, she'll decide what we see. I'll be happy no matter what! I've always wanted to go to a play on Broadway!

If you haven't seen Wicked, go see it. It is the best show I've ever seen. I'm hoping we get Mary Poppins in the next 5 years

WELCOME BACK Monica! Great to see you!

Cheri - I love Broadway!

I have a few sights that I can sometimes get discounted tkts from/with so will need to get those to you.

There are some great shows playing right now.....I really want to go see Little Mermaid.

Rent is no longer there (sniff, sniff). Wicked, Mary Poppins, Jersey Boys, Phantom of the Opera, Spamalot, The Color Purple - all amazing shows. Really depends on what you are into. Tarzan was great too-but no longer there either.

 

[mishoe01]

WELCOME BACK Monica! Great to see you!

Thanks Holly.....sorry about everything that you & Tyler had to go through over the weekend/end of the week.

I feel so bad about how bad HE feels - I know how down on myself I get but he's so young that he shouldn't have to deal w/ all of that.

 

[mishoe01]

Ian - LOVED your arguments about who is a Princess and who isn't - had me laughing out loud!

Hope everything is good now w/ the new internet thing.

Found out that I'm Ariel (Nan - I knew we were sisters ).

 

[mishoe01]

Must tell you of a good thing that happened Thursday....

I WON....2 tickets on American Airlines for travel in the US48, Caribbean, Bermuda & Mexico

I can either take someone w/ me....or can take 2 trips by myself

Tropical vacation HERE I COME!!!

Don't think I'll be doing Turks & Caicos - haven't heard how the island fared after the 2 hurricanes went over it.

Thinking of trying for somewhere where I can exchange my timeshare for a nice place....then it won't cost me tooooooooo much

 

[mishoe01]

Finally read what all those 2010 rumors are (as they appear to be right now)...if it turns out to be that way then I will be looking at the 6/12/10 Baltic cruise (if St Petersburg is included). Talked about this w/ Gydell & Connie last week - if DCL does not include St Petersburg in their itinerary, then I will be going elsewhere. I may then consider one of the shorter cruises but will have to wait and see.

JACKIE - have you ever been to England??? If we're going to consider a cottage stay that answer will help me figure out where to stay - I know the Cherry Tree cottage is in an area about 2 hrs from London in an area I have not been to, but am flexible

 

[mishoe01]

Nan - forgot to tell you to let Wilson know.....WAY TO GO!!!

I've gone to Fresh & Easy down in Phoenix/Scottsdale--they're wonderful! I wish we had one up here.

What class do you need to take? You never answered my question about what kind of job you have...that's OK, I won't take it personally....

Fresh and Easy ROCKS! I live in between two of them. On the day things expire they make them half off so I get a lot of meat that way and either eat it that day or freeze it. They also have things like cheese and baked goods and fruit and veggies half price too. It use to be easier to get it because no one new about it but now you have to go in the morning. Plus for every 20.00 you spend you get 5.00 off. Plus it is closer to me than a convenience store! OK enough of the advertisement

I'm doing the noon aide at my job and I do other things for the office and teachers. I'm also a sub for the secretary and nurse. I need to take the "No child left behind" class so I can do other jobs. It is only a three day class that they offer at the adult school. My job is only 2 hours a day or so right now but it will lead to a better job.....I think

Monica, that's exactly what makes this all so hard. He hates himself and says so regularly. It's horrible. But we're hoping for 2 good days in a row because that should help his confidence a bit. Fingers crossed for today!
