Happy Birthday Janet!

It's settled, i need to start the party early thanks u have one coming up too as I recall. Quite a few here this month.

Strikes me odd I've noticed I can commando with the best of them when in Orlando but back home find i need re-group day after visiting an amusement parkThinking it might be the ride choices are more aggressive here

Hitting the outlets to do back to school shopping today with GD, whee

Good day to all

I'm in for an early party Janet..........you know me.....always happy to help out


Had every season this morning.......sunshine, then drove up to wholesale butcher to stock freezers and we drove into the most torrential downpour! Apparently it was the same during the night, I never heard a thing last night once I fell over........

Today is getting freezers filled, washing and ironing........not the most exciting of days........

Hope your Thursday is a good one.........

Keisha - Happy Birthday! You do need to start the party early and end it late!

Monykalyn - Safe Travels!


We're headed out to Disney Studios this evening - have to ride Great Movie Ride one last time. I have Bunco Friday - the theme is it's 5 o'clock somewhere so I'm going to make key lime pie to bring. And going to finally try out the Bob Marley restaurant on Saturday. So, busy with fun stuff! I'm almost fully back to normal with my stomach-thing so at least it came at a time when I didn't have a lot planned. It's nice when things work out.

Kohlby........Love key lime pie..........enjoy!

Have fun MonyK



Funny old night tonight..........

DH opened one of his bottles of champagne he received as a leaving gift.........I could get used to expensive champagne on a nightly basis.........

Funny thing is, he's the one looking at hotels and flights for New York for June next year when we haven't even been this year yet.........I know he's going to love NY so I know we will go back again next year........I was just surprised he was so keen so early..........

Wish I had known about the Broadway show Come From Away.......I'd have booked that as well as Wicked........but no good seats left for night we could go.........maybe next time. But had to see Wicked again.......love that show....

Hope everyone's good...........

Taking a break from packing with my favorite chicken. Had to chug my wine to keep flies from getting in it. Discovered packing is much more pleasant after wine.
Waiting on laundry to finish. At least we don't need to be out of here too early tomorrow. Aiming to get to my parents house just after lunch- only 3 hour drive.

Wine solves many things MonyK........


Up and awake far too early this morning........DH has to go and pick up new glasses this morning otherwise I'd still be asleep........

Raspberry or blueberry muffins and something for breakfast.......shop bought ones though.......

Have a great Friday..........

Morning (well this side of pond anyway ! Hi Schumi! How funny that your husband is already looking at schedules for next years New York trip You guys always look so happy together in your pictures. Retirement seems like it will be awesome for you two!
Yes wine solves most things-I really dislike packing but it wasn't as bad after wine-and kept me from strangling oldest trying to get a sense of urgency into her. She had to print label to return her book for summer school, get it boxed up ready to ship-has had a WEEK to do this and chose 10:30 last night. Also has had a couple days to get her stuff together for her contacts rebate ($200 rebate-I made her pay for her own contacts). DH-despite a week of reminding him-forgot to print the insurance policy for car that she has to have to check into Disney housing-so he, also, was on computer at 10:30 last night.

Mac-how is the recovery going? Hoping it is now speeding along a bit faster for you!
Keisha-never too early to start a birthday celebration

If I wasn't driving today this coffee would have a shot of Baileys in it...

Lil Roo crowed-guess I can go let him out now. Have to get new straw into coop (another errand I asked DH to do earlier in week) before we leave.

DS's anxiety is at war with his (finally) excitement - anxiety over missing school prep stuff and not knowing a minute by minute schedule for trip and excitement over Pandora rides after watching videos...

Alright-almost 8 am-time to get everyone up!
Have a great Friday all!

Not sure what they call it but same day ticket place, usually not top tier shows, tickets tonight ? Brokers, stub hub & that ilk have worked for us

Ah stuff him in the bag and take him along, probably more behaved than many of the pooches I've seen

Beats me, other than PoC every blockbuster I've started to watch this summer has bored me to sleep. Spider-Man still on to-do list, along with Dunkirk. Big Steven King fan, I'm afraid I'll be sorely disappointed with The Stand.

Ummm... do you mean "The Dark Tower" or "IT"? I might like "IT", but they've made a LOT of changes and split it into two movies... from what I have seen of "The Dark Tower" I don't think I am going to like it either.. I can't stand Matthew McConnoughy..


I haven't seen Spidey yet...

I have trouble watching movies after I read the book. They usually disappoint me. (And though the HP movies were pretty good from what I saw, I admit to not making it through all of them. I pay better attention to books). IT was the first 1,000+ page book I read. I was in 6th grade and the teacher said we could do a book report on ANY book! I was so excited about that so IT was what I read for my report. Due to it holding a special place in my memory, I don't think I can bring myself to see the movie.

I've read IT 4 times.. and splitting the movie into two parts - first move the past and second movie the present, I think will destroy the suspense set up by alternating between the timelines.

That is a weird mix of days!!!!
Yes, first year we went we already had our Wicked tickets, but niece and I wanted to see another show....so yes, we went to the TKTS stand and did get tickets for a show, not that much cheaper I have to say........
They`re redoing The Stand!!!!!! Love that book!!!


Busy day doing not very much........

Quiet night in tonight.......

King already revamped The Stand once... as a member of the King Fan page, I haven't heard anything about a new version... I think The Stand TV series was actually one of the better adaptions. The second version of The Shining was MUCH better than Kubrick's. Kubrick made the movie about the man and the book was about the hotel... the second movie was about the hotel, as it should have been.

Safe travels MonyK. Let's just say, little one has a birthday party tomorrow, decided to get something from Amazon. Yep, bought it last night. Good thing there is 1 day delivery. Teens, and young adults. Timeliness is always the night before.

Thank goodness it is Friday. Car in shop for a check up. Then errands. So happy the summer soccer tournament that was to start today has been cancelled. Seems not enough teams. Yeah, high time for all to be on vacation.

Have an awesome weekend all.

And hey, this year, even the eclipse will wait until my birthday.

The countdown is closing in on 45 days. Just did my online checkin for POP. If I do get a new room, I will take pictures. I hope to get one.

Have a great Saturday........
