Who feels like a Thread-Killer? Part 2

[PrincessaC]

Hello everyone

Robin and Colleen, glad to hear you made it home safely.

I really didn't get to catch up.. just browsed a lil. We're about to go to breakfast.

I just wanted to say HI to everyone.

It's raining cats and dogs today and I think there's a tornado watch...

We decided today would be our break day. They said it wouldn't rain tomorrow... We'll see... we're going to the parks rain or shine!

Have a good day everyone!!!!

Cally, I prefer the parks in the rain....less crowds!

Got a funny one for ya's

Every Tuesday I drop my father off at the strip mall. He gets his hair cut (all 2 of them) then does 'his shopping' at the local supermarket (10% off for Seniors on Tuesdays)
So when he is ready to be picked up he calls me. Lately the pay phones, in front of the supermarket have not been working. So he walks from one end of the strip mall to the other by Kmart & calls me from there. However I MUST wait 5 minutes to give him time to walk back to the supermarket. The concept of him just staying at kmart, and I will pick him up there.....just flies over his head.

So anyway, i go to pick him up.....and he is COMPLAINING about the pay phones (as usual)..however he thought he had the problem licked. He brought the cordless phone from his bedroom with him!!!!

He couldnt understand why the cordless phone would work from 1 mile away from the house......
Now i tried to explain how these things work (why i bother i dont know)....but he cant figure out how he can call his sister in Toronto, and his brother in Kansas City on THAT phone...BUT cant call me from the supermarket (btw on the same phone #).

Hey Cally enjoy your day at the world, rain or no rain

Did you end up at Downtown Disney on Saturday night

Liz and I went there and I kept an eye out for you but I didn't see you or the rest of your family.

We went back again on Sunday night because Liz had to return a tshirt that she found the correct size on Sunday (DTD store called to see if it was available in the correct size anywhere else on property and we were told no. found it at MGM )

Also she bought a sweatshirt at MGM and they forgot to take the security tag off, so we had to go and get that removed.

Good afternoon threadkillers.

Loved your story about dad DU.

Hi gang!

My pictures turned out pretty good, I just realized I didn't take any pictures when we ran into Susan and Ann...I guess its cause we expected to run into them at least one more time on Saturday

My internet connection is lousy again. I am gonna go mess with the router now and see if I can get connected long enough to load my pics.

Work has been busy, I always expect the first couple days back to be like that tho.

Wish me luck, hopefully I will be back with some of my photos.

Have a great time this weekend Brenda, say hi to the big cheese for me!

Hello everyone!
Im back and we had a great time...the weather was great except for a few showers...
Had a great meet!...Loved finally getting to meet Cally and family...and Mike had a good conversation with Rodger...I think he was happy to see another male...LOL
Too bad Ann and Susan missed it ...It would have been the most TKers together if they made it....OH well It was good to see you all in Epcot during the afternoon even for just the few mins, we could...

and we had a nice dinner together with Robin and Liz at sunshine seasons!

Colleen GREAT pics...I stole some I know you dont mind! ....
Ill try to get mine up sometime today...and the video soon...Ill be making copies for everyone as soon as Mike shows me how....

The boys had a blast, with only a few meltdowns(on the youngers part)..LOL

I LOVE the new HM...They did a great job and I loved the fact that I got to see it with my TKer friends! (Robin, Liz and Colleen )
and DU, You are right about LFC...I was very funny ...I wanted to go see it again, but never got the chance....
Had a nice bike ride at the WL in the AM before the MNSSHP. Which by the way was the BEST!..Even Hallowishes were the best Ive seen...better then reg. wishes!...
Id like to go again sometime....
We did get the lovebugs..not too bad in the beginning of the week ..but they got kind of thick..in the end...Glad we dont have them here...there better then mayflies, or nats I suppose tho....as they dont bite or get in the eyes like nats do....

Well LOTS of things to get done today.....
I hope you have a great day in DL Brenda ...

SOOOO HAPPY TO HAVE MY ALBERT BACK

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAUTIFUL!
Where did you stay???????????

That's Bonnett Creek!

Rose bought into it as one of her home resorts
(She now has four )

Didja see picture of Pop from across the lake?

I took that from our balcony

Yes, a real balcony~10 x 10 at least...

Our next trip (in December) takes us to Summer Bay Resort.

It's off property but well worth the drive~

I love these pictures! The Halloween photos are great, very vibrant. I loved MNSSHP last year!

Did you meet up with some other DISers who aren't TKers? I would swear that in the group photo I recognize Linda...and maybe Sandy from the Disappearing Peeps thread!
