Welcome to the YaYa's: YYotC at Castaway Cay

[isyne4u]

I was doing pretty good with it myself until the management came by and said you are supposed to roll the balls UNDERhanded.

oh great...so you're the one that taught Jar how to play skee ball
I swear that boy is so uncoordinated its funny. He would try really hard to roll teh ball but it usually ended up 3 lanes to the left He finally gave up!

My drink is diet coke (I know bad for me but it doesn't give me a headache) I used to drink dr. pepper like it was going out of style but when I switched to diet I couldn't take the dr. pepper. But yesterday I tried the diet cherry vanilla dr. pepper at 7-11 and it is really good. It doesn't taste like dr. pepper or vanilla! It tastes like cherry coke!! hehe nice change of pace.

Elaine...ah you can't grab hold of them ole moles before you whack em!! so many rules its not even funny! I guess they've upgraded the holes from 10 to 10,000, 20 to 20,000 and so forth....inflation!

Lily...you'll do fine on the test...you'll have AA and me there to back you up!!! hehehehe

Sherry....I hope Jared enjoys his dance tonight! sounds like fun

Nancy...sorry you didn't sleep last night...I'm with you...jarrod got into bed with me last night so I couldn't sleep. It wouldn't have been so bad except that he thinks if he is in the bed he has to be attached to me! So I kept bumping into him, his blankie, and his baby seal named "Baby". Tight quarters in my double bed.

Alan...I'm shocked...you said Coca-cola...I thought it was RC Cola for you!! hehehe I'm glad you have class!

Amanda...did you decide to work or not?

Beth...oh joy, Boy Genius! Don't work too hard. I'm not going to get a chance to work on my scrap booking this weekend

This weekend we have the circus on Saturday night and then on Sunday we have to drive to Williamsburg so I can buy the kids some new shoes. Since they both have to wear the expensive stride-rites (they practically wear the boxes!) So we are going to the outlets to get them shoes for half price of the mall locations!! So lunch out, a little shopping, a little fighting with the kids for shopping...all in all a good day!!

more later!

Lily, actually if you do the opposite of what Alan does, I am sure you'll do great

Oh, ok. Just not with the Coke thing. I am a Coke Classic all the time.

 

[helenabear]

I think I'm starting to poop out for the day. My eyes just want to close shut.

Sherry, I remember when I was 8 years old, I was in Germany and had Doctor Pepper for the first time in my life. I remember spitting it out on the ground it was *that* bad!!!! I haven't developed a taste for it since...

No good for diet stuff for me... I avoid all "fake" sugars like that so everything has to have calories in it for me.

I might have to try the Dr Pepper Cherry Vanilla then... does that come in regular?

Alan, that's flavored water that's all... though I see a heck of a lot more point to that than drinking diet caffeine free Mt. Dew... I never knew anyone who drank Mt. Dew for the taste

Wow, Narnia is coming out quickly!!!! My dad actually saw it in the theater still not too long ago. I notice it is just in time for easter though

Tara, sonds like y'all will have a great weekend! Enjoy it!

LOL, Lily! Except for the Coke thing of course. If I pick a product it will be Coke, but sometimes it is too sweet for me.

 

[Kama89]

Oh and I agree, Mac singing daily should be a perk! Imagine waking up to that voice!

Sigh. Imagining....

Well Suzanne... burning is sorta second nature for me. I suppose I should probably learn to stay in the kitchen when I'm cooking.

Caffeine free stuff is evil!

Bored. Crap. Hate that. Guess I should go paint.

 

[helenabear]

No comment on you and cooking Kimmie

You know Mac should at least offer a service similar to what WDW does... wake up calls with Mickey's voice. So... wake up calls with Mac's voice. Maybe hearing something like "You are beautiful my sweet, sweet..." (and leave out the rest ) would work

Tired... probably going to bed early. 'Nite all!

 

[helenabear]

Oh Kimmie, I forgot to say (yes it is my turn I know) but I love the new (well old) sig pic back

 

[DISNEYFANRI]

Hi all...a diet coke drinker here - that is when I'm not drinking coffee.....

Yes - alyssa has both a February and April break which is so wierd - none of her friends have it off either. She spent the night last night at one of her friends dorms - decided it was not great and that "no school is going to be perfect I just need to choose one that I am comfortable with" and "I think I will apply to Western (where Ryan goes) and see what they give me for scholarships". That's a bit of progress.
You are probably wondering how I feel about that - my thought is if she went with him this year it would be to "take care of him" choosing to go next year is probably because that is where she wants to be...what can I say???

I am getting so spoiled - today my dad took us to Panera for lunch.

Alyssa is power napping - watching Bambi 2 later.

Nothing else going on here except Sci-fi friday.......

 

[Kama89]

So... wake up calls with Mac's voice. Maybe hearing something like "You are beautiful my sweet, sweet..." (and leave out the rest ) would work

Hee! I'd give anything if I could remember how to embed sounds here. I've now got that verse going through my head... Youuu are beautiful my sweeeet sweeeet....

Hi Paula, sounds like Alyssa is giving school a lot of thought. Good for her!

Awww thanks. I stumbled on the picture tonight. Got all nostalgic and decided to put it back. Sweet dreams to ya!

Been a lazy slug here today. Ho hum... Can't seem to find my oomph.

 

[isyne4u]

Bump!!

I've been installing quicken on my computer and putting all of my checking acct info and credit card info in it. I have some more work to do but I think I will attempt to get some sleep!!

Hopefully, my little bed partner will decide his bed is okay tonight...I'm just not used to having to share my bed!!

good night gang!!

tara

 

[helenabear]

Morning all! Cleo decided it was time to get us all up and moving. Well at least she did it to Luis (I was already up). Fortunately we went to bed early last night

Paula, that sound like Alyssa is going to make a good decision for her. I would imagine that she is now a bit more objective in comparing after spending time at a couple places now.

I'm not sure we can embed sound here now, Kimmie. We can't do HTML here anymore so there goes the only way I knew how to do it. I would say I am sorry for getting that song in your head, but I'm not

I understand about nostalgia... I get that way now and then... every once in a while I put that old castle pic in.

Tara, how's the quicken going? I hope you get it all set up soon!

Not sure what we are doing today here... so I osund all blah and boring I bet. We have two groups of friends we could go out with, but it's up to what Luis feels like doing. See y'all later!

 

[Meriweather]

Good morning.

Good luck to Alyssa on her decision.....Geoff switched schools after year two. Best decision her made. Of course, he waited to long to do the paperwork, so had a semester off

Well, we are picking up Dave's new red box today
Going to a movie and out to lunch and then a little house cleaning and packing.

Happy Saturday everyone.

Oh for those that may be interested....disneyCP2002 has started the new BaB exchange

 

[Pam]

Nancy,
Dave's new red box - hehe!!

What? Best decision for Geoff in leaving beautiful downtown Pittsburgh??? We were there yesterday for DD's University Honors Convocation Ceremony - I told DH that I could NEVER live there! People, people everywhere! (Rude people, too!)

DD and I are heading back down there today to go to Disney On Ice - Princesses!! I have my souvenir, snowcone, popcorn, and cotton candy money securely stashed in my purse!!

Kim - did they have that last Speedskating event that Apolo qualified for - or did I miss it?? Poor Kippie.

Tiara - did you get the bed to yourself??

Smoochies and mad to one and all!

 

[Kama89]

He's in the 500 and the relay tonight Pammy. Then it's all over. What happened to Kippy? I didn't see. I only saw him race once, then he seemed to disappear. Our US teams, in SO many sports have really struggled this year.

Gotta go ketchup.

 

[Kama89]

Red box Nancy? What movie are you going to see?

Decide yet what you're going to do today Elaine? I know!! Answer your PMs!! ...

No sound? Nuts. Oh well, I only successfully managed it one time and that was only with Katholyn patiently tutoring me every step of the way.

Did you get to sleep alone last night Tara?

 

[Meriweather]

I think it was more the school, than the city, Pam But I don't think he liked living in the eastern US.
He was much happier come back over here.

I will get a picture of the "red box" when we get home
Kimmie....it's a Scion B
I think we are going to see Freedomland......running out of good ones we haven't already seen.
Tomorrow night we are seeing Penn and Teller

Gotta go ketchup.

That's the only time I saw/heard of him, too. And then, like you said, he disappeared into thin air.....

Nancy - I personally think CMU is overpriced -- but then again..... I think all colleges/universities are overpriced! You sure don't get much bang for your buck.

 

[DISNEYFANRI]

Hi gang....

It's cold here - 27 degrees and going to snow....

Never watched Bambi last night - Alyssa not in a good mood - feeling the "I don't want to go back to school" stress I think.

Got called 3x last night for work issues - the last time being 10:30pm - 12:15am....

So far today I have watched Edward Scissorhands with Chris - hopefully I'll get motives at some point....Chrsi is out again - god forbid he stay home for more than 1 hour - don't want to ruin his image....

Alyssa worked this morning - took a shower and went back to bed.


Tara - I remember those days all too well.....every night Chris would tap me on the forehead and say "Moooje over I'm sleeping with you".....

Nancy thanks for the tip on the BAB exchange - just the other day Alyssa asked me if I still did exchanges - my "girls" could use some new duds....can't wait to see the pic of the red box - hahaha.

Pam - I love Disney on Ice - we used to take the kids every year!!
Hi to Kimmie, Elaine, Lily, Beth and all.....

Our friends called last night and told us what a great time they had on their cruise...Jeffrey was very interested but kept sayong how awful itwould be if I was sick the whole time - I get motion sickness very very easily...Any thoughts????

 

[helenabear]

Blah kind of day here... don't feel like going into it though

Woo hoo on the new red box, Nancy!!!! I hope Dave really enjoys it!

Pam enjoy Disney on Ice!

Kimmie, I know I know... I doubt you want me replying in this mood though

Paula, go for the cruise and get the Bonine tablets to take (they last 24 hours) You can also get patches and wrist things to get rid of it. Don't get a room in the front of the ship and I think you'd be fine. I know many people who can do cruises but get motion sick easily. Also go for a shorter cruise so not as much time & $$$ wasted if it isn't for you.

Lousy ketchup I know... I'll bee back later

 

[isyne4u]

I haven't had this many people ask me about who I was sleeping with since college!!!
Yes I did get my bed to myself last night!! woohoo I even got to take a nap this afternoon thanks to my mommy!! She let me go lay down!!

I still have more work to do on my quicken but my checking account is at least set up!! So that's a plus. Now if we could just hear from social security. I hate feeling like I'm living from paycheck to paycheck. WE've decided that if she does get the ss (which we are pretty sure she will) we will be able to pay off the debts I've incurred while struggling without the extra money!

But you know what...tonight I'm not even going to worry about it...my tax money id coming on friday so we are going to the cirucs and we are going to have fun!!!

So I hope you all have a great evening and I hope to do some more ketchup later tonight!!!

hugs to all,
tara

 

[helenabear]

Just popping in real quick...

Tara, have a blast!!!!

Nancy, wishing you all safe travels :
