Now THAT is a VIEW
. Absolutely stunning.
Please tell me you enjoyed a relaxing, stress-free, sunshiny holiday and have returned feeling fresh and rejuvenated. And because we're all dying to know....how did Grumpy Cat fare with the spotty wifi?
We have 15 days until our trip. I think we're going to try a date night at Toothsome (my parents are coming with this time so we can leave the kids with them.).
So a new lady in Jake's life. That's exciting.
15 days!!
Oh, I am so jealous!
I can't wait to hear your thoughts on Toothsome. You'll have to order something sinfully yummy for dessert and post pics for us afterward. We will all be waiting
.
Ah yes, a new lady
. I roll my eyes, but she's okay. Quiet. Blonde. Quiet. Shy. Did I mention, quiet? And I hear she's afraid of me a little
. I didn't think I was that scary, but maybe I put her off a little when I mentioned I wouldn't hesitate to dig her eyeballs out with my fingernails if she breaks his heart?
I didn't you were a GP vet. We went over to watch college football on a Saturday night when a lot of big games were on. They do hockey and basketball too. We checked out ICE too. I had my kids with me so we didn't hang around ICE long. Marriot owns Gaylord and my uncle runs Marriot Village so he hooked us up. That property is huge! Anyway, I know you and Steve will have a blast. I still laugh when I scroll through my pics and see this big guy...
Oh, that dang dolphin
. Thank goodness we didn't move heaven and earth to get it home: it would have taken up half of Jake's tiny apartment
.
I wouldn't say we're Gaylord Palms "vets", but we've seen enough that we're definitely wowed. I would love to spend a week there someday when our budget is nice and cushy. One of those atrium view rooms, especially during the holiday season, must be INCREDIBLE!
My life being the non-stop, wild and crazy, action packed thing that it is, I have so many amazing weekend plans. Oh wait, that's not me. Raise your hand if you're working, cleaning your house and doing laundry this weekend!!! Yup, that's me.
Oh, ME! ME!
Well, everything you have listed applies to me but the working part: unfortunately, however, Steve's making up for that in spades. He's trying to grab a nap as we speak before heading into the plant for a midnight troubleshooting mission for one of the machines at the company he works for, and then they are sending him to their production facility in Michigan tomorrow so he can assist with their issues as well. Our weekend has officially gone to the dogs
. Putting a positive spin on things: this means more overtime, which means more spare cash to cover some extras for December.
So: I will not complain. I will not complain. I will not complain. (but I may still grumble a bit
)
After reading your report we're looking into maybe doing ICE as well.
YES!! I think you would love it! The exhibit is incredible and the atrium is worth a tour while you're there, too. You may want to consider one of their combo tickets and go snow tubing, too, just to round out your visit.
Thanks Gina
Yes, losing money would have been the worst! At least we can use the tickets (plane and park) at some point soon hopefully.
Hmmmm......October would be nice
. Say, between the 14th and 28th?
Can you say......DISMEET?
So sorry to hear about your trip
. If it makes you feel better at all we had to take dd to the walk in clinic once while at Disney for strep. The waiting room was packed full of screaming toddlers. The DR said that when the kids fly with bad colds they get bad ear infections. He said it was a large percentage of the patients he sees. So it could have gotten worse had you gone. Still a disappointment though .
Gina, I have fun weekend plans. My Brother and SIL went to Niagara on the Lake for their anniversary and we get my one year old nephew for the weekend. He's a little sweet pea and it's a treat for all of us. They texted a little while ago and said they were most looking forward to sleeping in tomorrow as long as they wanted. Remember those days? I barely do now that my youngest is 12. I'm excited to get up at 5am with that little muffin.
Oh, you brave soul. I'm so far from those days I would have NO idea what to do with a wee baby anymore. You are one awesome auntie!! I hope you are having a blast and enjoying your baby fix!!
Nothing exciting here, though we finally got some heat
Up at my normal work time so I can get in an 8 mile training run before it gets hot (upper 90s tomorrow) and then a massage at 11. Otherwise enjoying that we have a/c when most around here don't so I can enjoy the weather but come inside to cool off. Oh and a fast pass planning phone call is scheduled for Sunday, not that park hours for November are even close to being finalized by disney and won't be before our date on the 5th I'm sure.
No word on the job, still thinking no news is good news. I'll email her Monday morning for an update since it'll be a week and a half since we talked and a week since she was supposed to meet with the exec dir.
Still no news?!?!
Well, I would definitely say that's a good sign: generally "no's" come pretty quickly. Here's hoping they don't make you wait too much longer for an answer.
Congrats to Jake getting his own apartment! My first off campus, non college one was at 20. Scary scary but exciting exciting
Thank you
. I think he's still in the "excited" stage: the fright won't kick in until he's faced with his internet bill, his rent due, and his own grocery bill
. All a part of growing up, though, isn't it? Hard for me to watch but I can't protect him forever.....much as I'd like to.

but now you've made me feel much better about my obsessive need to cover as many expenses as possible this far in advance. Gosh darn it, though, aren't we due for a little break where the dollar is concerned?!?!?
