Cheri, Degrassi is another Canadian show - filmed mainly in Toronto. There is a Degrassi street near where we live. Did you ever watch the original?? It is pretty funny as it is around the time we were that age (a bit later) and the styles etc. are really funny.

I am torn on the shirts. I like the babana but also like the post-turkey idea. Could we leave the turkey and turn that guy with the net into a banana? Is that asking too much?? Then we could have both.

Hi! I was up real early. Steve had to leave for work at 3 a.m. Then I fell back to sleep and my sister called crying. I could hardly understand her. Seems her dd has chosen to move in with her boyfriend. Boy am I glad those days are over for me. I never had the problems she has had with her child. The bad thing is her d is only 18 and the guy is 25! Now, I ask you, where is this guys head? I know the real answer to that, but you gotta wonder And NO, my sister did not want her d with this guy. In fact she took her car away, her phone away, refused to let the guy come over or call the house. Boy, thank you for my two kids! I feel sorry for my sister, this is her only child and she feels her heart is broken. That's what happens when you give some children the world! Hate to say it, but it's true.

Well, LOST. What can you say about that. Let's see... LOST, yes, that's it, LOST. That show really confuses me sometimes. I find it a cross from Planet of the Apes, The Village, the Stephen King movies (saw that)! And boy, are they lost in the Bermuda Triangle? I have been watching since the show started and I'm still LOST. Just when they throw you a small chunk of a bone, they take it away!
Well going to try to get my foot in a shoe today, couldn't yesterday
I will check in later,
Oh, almost forgot, kinda of dislike your shirt...I'm Cullen's NANA!

Good Morning Everyone!

Lynn: love those pictures of DS. Keep them coming!

DW and I watched "Friday Night Lights" last night. It was a repeat of the pilot episode. Could be a decent show. Will have to watch more to find out.

We also watched "The Biggest Loser" since they were on a 4 day cruise last night. I think this is the first complete episode I have ever seen of the show. Probably not one we will watch on a regular basis.

Have a great day everyone!

Hi Everyone!


Tomorrow we are going to Lancaster, PA to a farm that has this amazing corn maze that they do every year. We love going - DH is a huge fan of corn mazes - it's the little things in life that make him happy. It's always a fun day for us when the four of us get COMPLETELY lost in a corn field and spend a couple of hours trying to find our way out. Can you say "quality family time???"

Kelly - sorry I missed this post. I could have met you somewhere on Rt. 30 or Rt. 41 and said "Hey!" Hope you had a good time in my neck of the woods.

I can't remember who wrote the part saying that they were near boomers (Sorry, I'm too lazy to check who it was), we live very close to there. Not more than five miles off. I love the Perkins that's near there. Too bad the manager went away. He was a good man. A couple of friends of mine work there.

Hi Josh -

It was me. Your mom said we are very close. We are very close to the restaurant that used to have the airplane sticking out of the side. Do you know where I mean? My kids go to the school just north of you on 41. We've only been to that Perkins once. We stopped a few years ago on the way home from the shore and swear we won't go back. It was just nasty dirty and the service/food were not up to par. Sounds like maybe they made some much needed changes.

 

[fourfoxesinpa]

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.

My husband is the mayor of our little town which is the closest borough to the site of the shootings. So, he has been getting emails and phone calls from all over the country offering condolences and prayers for our neighbors. It is just inconceivable and so sad.

I could support this idea! Thank you for your diplomacy, Dutchsmommy!

 

[Dixielady908]

I am sooo jealous...I cant open my computer at home and get all these extra smiley things....so they have some really cute ones... I just cant figure out why mine wont open at home

Oh well here at work...getting ready to go to lunch...just wanted to post and keep our count up.

My DD dog last night just decided to lift his leg and pee on his bed and my carpeting in my family room. I was sooo made at him. He got grounded to his cage...then when I wanted to let him out at bed time. I think he was afraid to come out....so he never got let out....I tried everything...to get him to come out and he woulndt. Guess he didnt like getting yelled at.....bad puppy bad doggy......

Talk with later tonight...
Denise

 

[Dixielady908]

Good afternoon Banana Heads and Linda !!!

Can you believe that our computers and phones were down all morning here at work? The entire network crashed and just came up about 15 minutes ago. We were crossing our fingers for maybe a "just go home" day, but that didn't happen.

If you're worried about too many banana daquiri's on the cruise, then try a Nutty Banana! Bill had one of these in Canada last summer and they are AWESOME: 99 Bananas Schnapps, Hazelnut Liqueur & Cream ... mmmmmm

On to primetime: Vivica?? Vivica??? She was robbed. Not the best by far but certainly better than Sara! I really gotta look that girl up and see who she is ... (Cheri, so nice to know that we can spend the entire cruise critiquing this show )

My analysis of the LOST seasons premier:


Denise, did Wally get everything sorted out from his wallet escapade? What a pain in the butt!

Kathy: Awesome photo of the Wonder. That is very cool And let me apologize for my husband trying to drive you batty. Do you want me to smack him for you?

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Shell,
No need to smack him, after all he did count them for me , so it is all better now!!! We are friends again and my eyes are now uncrossed
Thanks for the offer, I will remember it for future reference, should the occassion arise??

Denise,
I'm sure your dogge will forgive you for punshing him by the time you get home. He is like a kid, he is trying to make you feel guilty by not coming out of his cage


I think Sarah's idea for the shirt is a good one to. Tonya, is this doable??
If not we will be happy with anything, not fussy here at all. Both ideas are really good.

well I am going to put my feet up for awhile.
Minnie is napping, so now is the time to relax.
took her for ance walk, then a drive to the pharmacy where she was given a doggie treat, then back home. I guess all the excitement wore her out.

Well here's the funny thing ... he came downstairs laughing and said "Kathy can't count the disappearing bananas! She's gonna kill me!!!". About 2 minutes later I hear, "Um, I can't count them either! It's too hard to see all of them!"

 

[cruisemutt]

Shell....the proper name for the drink was a Nutty Monkey....

do these count, Kathy?

 

[Dixielady908]

OK 50 DAYS and/or 7 WEEKS..

I still need to do some shopping. You know, oh I have a lot of time...well not anymore. so I need to start picking up some the night lights and dramamine...etc that kind of crazy stuff.

Wally & the wallet.....all clear...I belive we have cleared up the mess. Well I have to go I think I abused the system here at work today and posted more than I should have. I dont want the hospital internet police to come get me....


Denise

 

[mom x4 grandma x4]

Sorry Mutt,
but Monkeys dont count, unless they are holding or eating a banana.

They are cute

Kathy

 

[favoriteslave]

Ok I have sent our request to the printer. Lets see what they can so. I can't make any promises but they haven't let us down yet.

Pat I am still waiting to hear whether or not you want shirts. If you will tell me the sizes you need I will order them with or without a committment. I want us to be up over 50 so that we can pay a lower price. If you end up not wanting them I will give them to our servers and cabin person for fun. Just let me know.

 

[U2Pixies]

Cute pictures Lynn. Do you think your son will like older women? Laura is only 7 months old - two months isn't too bad They can have a play date at Flounders and take it from there I can tell you this, he won't find anyone else who is as cute at she is He must know though, college is first That's the law in this family

Kathy, I was thinking, you and I might be the last to post on here before we sail away. We won't be leaving the house until the a.m. of the big day. Won't it be lonely?

I saw just a wee bit of Biggest Losers last night, kept switching channels between LOST (during the commercials). I'm with you, I don't know about that show. Didn't get to see the cruise part, just the last part when one of the girls called one of the men a name. Thought that to be in very poor taste. Don't think I could be as brave as some of them and wear what they wear to weigh in.
Can I have the recipe you made for dinner the other night? Sounds great. (I think that was from TiggerKing)

Tonya, I'm going to pm you later There has been BIG discussions going on about the t-shirts in this family. I will contact Stephen this evening and get their final answer and I'll get in touch with you.

Hello Fellow Turkeys and Bananas

Not much going on here. My back is feeling better everyday. I may actually try to do a light workout tomorrow. I really HATE not being able to exercise

I was looking around on the main dis board and it seems like Rachel is the cruise director on the Magic right now. We have had her on both of our trips and I really like her. It's funny, I actually called Don at work to tell him thate Rachel is on the ship right now and probably will be for our cruise. Isn't it funny how much a part of our lives these cruises become?

Not much else to report here. I just want to do my part to keep the post count climbing.

Have a great night everyone!

Kelly
