Steve,
Has cullen seen Philharmagic at MK??? I love that show. I even want to reach out for Donald on that one. At AK, it's a bus life is pretty good too.

Lots of hot sun here today, not much else hppening for now.
I will check back later with everyone.

Josh, enjoy your day off.

Kathy

Kathy: He hasn't seen Philharmagic yet, I almost took him to Bugs Life but was concerned, some of that movie can be intense.
I think he'll enjoy the Philharmagic, I do

He's getting excited about going on the "Mickey Boat", he keeps asking about it.

Esther keeps telling him his 2nd birthday's coming up (Oct. 4) and I talked to mom this morning and she said he's been going around the house singing Happy Birthday to Cullen. Wait until you guys meet him, he's a nut.

Steve - I'm betting Emily (my DD 2 1/2) and Cullen will get along great. She is a big Happy Birthday fan too.

Very terrible news coming from FourFoxes neighborhood. The Amish school shooting is just 5 or so miles from our home. Our school did not lock down but very closely monitored the situation. So sad. To attack the most peaceful, innocent people. Just tragic.

That's crazy, I saw it on the news when I went for lunch, are they saying why the person did it?

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

That is terrible, I havnt had any news on today, guess I'd better do some catch up.
It is so sad, when we were in school it was an occasional fist fight and you could still get a spanking from the principal, but the was the worst of our worries. Todays kids have to worry everyday is someone is going to shoot up their school. Unbelievable!!!

will check back later,

Good Afternoon Everyone,
My sister came over for lunch which was very nice. DS is having a VERY cranky day and the only thing that is not making him cry is ELMO!! What every works !! I so sad because me and DH go around the house singing the ELMO song because we seen it so much !!
On a sad note can you believe another school shotting. One last week and another this week. I feel so bad for the Amish families. They were showing them all hugging and crying. School used to be a place where children can feel safe. With the society today that has changed for the worst! I can't believe that a person with probelms would take it on innocent children!! Well my heart goes out to thoses Amish families!!
Well I am going to cook Polenta to go with the left over stew from yesterday. Talk to you all later!!

 

[TIGGER41681]

Hey Steve,
How is Laura doing?? Are you using Flounder's nursery while onboard??

Good afternoon everyone!

Looks like we were pretty busy on the boards in the last day and a half.

We had DH's family over yesterday to eat burgers / hot dogs / fries, etc. that they salvaged from the fire in their restaurant early Saturday morning. Turns out it was arsen -- they tried starting fires in three separate areas. Luckily, it's a concrete block building, so the damage was on the inside. I sure hope they catch and prosecute the guilty parties.

The school shooting news is also tragic. Is that the third one in the past week?? Colorado, a principal was shot in WI, and now this.

Onto to happy news -- DH bought me my own laptop so I can be on the DIS whenever I need to be!

Shell, love the pictures!! You look fabulous! Wendy, you and your new friend look splendid, too! I think I'd like Jim from The Office to accompany me just so we can work on Jell-o dessert designs! Are you in, Shell????

Better get going. I have to run to the store to buy 26 Gogurts for DD's snack tomorrow. (Of course, the list came out the day after I went to the grocery store!)

I'll try to check in later since I was quite a slacker yesterday and today! Don't want to meet up with Kathy's whip!

Cheri

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Cheri,
DH got me a laptop a few months back too!! For the same reason, so I could be on line when ever I want to. great isnt it!!!

yes ,
I do have a pretty mean whip, and my kids will tell you I have eyes in the back of my head that can see everything, and ears that can hear a pin drop across the room, when I'm not suppose to hear it!!!

Well DS and DH went out for pizza tonight so I didnt have to cook. I havnt been feeling well the past few days, so this is nice for me, no dishes either!!!

I will check back in later to see who is doing what???
Lets keep those posts coming, we have a ways to go yet.

JAMIE - I was in tears watching the news today. Me and DH and the kids go out to Lancaster all the time...we absolutely love it. As a matter of fact we were just there on Sat. It breaks my heart to see such a peaceful community going thru something tragic. My heart goes out to everyone in the area. I'm glad you guys are ok.
It really stinks that our kids have to experience these horrible type of events. Like someone said earlier...a fist fight was the biggest happening at my school growing up....my thoughts and prayers are with all of the communities dealing with the tragedies of the past week.

Sorry I've been MIA...we were out all day on Sat. and then Sunday I spent on the couch nursing my back...yes, it's still not right Sitting is not the most comfortable position so I haven't been on the computer much. I'm hoping over the next couple of days there should be some improvement. I went back to my chiro again today..so we'll see.

KATHY - I hope you are feeling better today. Here, let me return the gesture Better now?

I can't believe how close we are getting to cruising. I really haven't done too much yet...I hope I'm not feeling a false sense of security because I've done this already. I'll be running around like a crazy woman a week before

I hope everyone has a great night!

Kelly --

Have DH get you a laptop then you can sit comfortably AND keep up on the posts!!! In the meantime, I hope you start feeling better soon.

Kathy -- You could have been a teacher! (Or were you??!!) Eyes in the back of your head, great hearing, a whip, and (according to you) a loud voice!! Hope you're feeling better! But just in case, keep DH thinking you're under the weather so you don't have to cook for another day or two!

Talk to you later!

Hey Steve,
How is Laura doing?? Are you using Flounder's nursery while onboard??

Laura's doing fine, thanks for asking, she hasn't had anymore episodes, so we aren't sure what was going on. The Dr. said babies do funny things sometimes.
We will be using Flounders, just not sure when. We all want to try to go to Palo's for brunch but didn't get it at the 75 day mark, trying when we get on ship, so they'll probably get to Flounders then. We've discussed at length and aren't sure if we will be putting them in there for a "break", Cullens like a sponge right now, everything's new to him and it's awesome to watch him see things for the first time.
But that's not to say I won't be over ruled by a massage!

Cheri,
no teacher here, just a cook and business owner.
But i got my eyes and ears from my mom.
Having raised 4 kids it was a necessity to have these talents, now I use them when the grandkids are here, of course I dont yell at them , they are all perfect ANGLES!!! Nothing like their moms were
They take after their grandma!!!

Dont know where the foghorn of a voice came from, but it comes in handy at times . I also am a fast talker unless I concentrate. I was the fastest talker in the entire school and neighborhood.



Kelly, thanks for the pixie dust. I got a prescription today that I hope will help.


I am off to bed early, I need all the beauty rest I can get, seeing Shell in her red dress was an inspiration to me!!!

Will check back in tomarrow,

Kathy

 

[Dixielady908]

hope everyone has a good day.
Not much going on here this morning, so I will check back later,
I mostly just wanted to add to the post count this morning and say hello!!

Kathy

 

[LindaBabe]

Good Morning, All!

Good Morning, Kathy - got to keep us toward the top of the list, don't we?

Kelly, have you tried core exercises? I haven't been to my chiropractor in about 4 years since i've been doing those. It takes about 15 minutes a day and has really helped my pain and flexibility (I have fibro). The book is "the core program" by Peggy Brill.

Off to the salt mines (otherwise known as the lab). I'll be back to Check up on y'all later.

 

[JanDave]

Good Morning!!!! A lot of you were busy posting yesterday!

Dave is laid off for 2 weeks. He is taking care of 2 GKs today - a 2.5 year old and a 3 month old. He'll wish he were back at work!

Have a great day!!!
