In Orange County--15 minutes from the parks (although it might as well be a million miles away most of the time!)

Where do you live?

It was soooooo frustrating that it was so cold--the week before (Easter Sunday) was very warm down here--we had the doors and windows open until 9 p.m. because it was HOT. And then a week later freezing--Southern Cal in the springtime!

Cristabel, your hair looks cute. I added your pic to the front.


Well, have a good night ladies. I've got to start getting my kiddos ready for bed.

 

[toocherie]

Ok ladies--my first attempt at uploading photobucket photos!! Let's see how this works . . . .

First two are of me at the Storyteller's Character Breakfast last Sunday

The next two are of something very cute that I saw on the path from Main Street to Adventureland on Tuesday (my birthday!) These VIPs were being escorted by Disney Security (no lie) !!!!!

Just a little snippet of my trip . . . .

Awww baby ducks
Whenever I see that I'm so tempted to snatch one up and sneak away but I'm afraid the mama duck would go berserk.

I couldn't even rely on AFLAC after that oh wow, I'm nerdy

Tuesday, YESTERDAY? was your birthday???

Happy Birthday, Cheryl!! I hope your day was extra magical. Everyone should be able to spend their birthday at Disneyland!

Cute pics!

 

[mommaU4]

OMG, Cheryl those pics are great!!! The breakfast looks like so much fun, and those little ducks are too cute. I'm glad you got to be in Disney for your B-day.

I'm going to add you to the front now!

Beth: how did you resize the picture to a smaller size? I couldn't figure out how to make the ones I posted smaller . . . . .

 

[disney-super-mom]

HEY CHERYL.....

 

[MotoXPrincess99]

I love the shirts! I think I ordered a small, I hope it fits. I like my shirts on the tighter side anyway, plus I wasn't blessed with much up top if you know what I mean.

Beth: how did you resize the picture to a smaller size? I couldn't figure out how to make the ones I posted smaller . . . . .

It's easy. If you've already got them in a photobucket account, just click on edit and there is the option to make them different sizes, all the way from message board, down to avatar and some in between.

There are a ton of things you can do to edit on Photobucket.
You can make it look like a cartoon drawing:

You can add text:

Make it into a poster with your own title and caption:

Turn it into fun pop art:

Literally there are hundreds of options on there. It's fun to play around.

(if you don't want these pics up, tell me and I'll remove them. I just wanted to show examples of things you can do)

I am off today and had oh-so-many things to do.

Let my dogs out and all THREE got skunked. Yep--all three. One is an Irish Wolfhound so he weighs 140lbs and is very furry. Great fun. My entire house smells worse than I could even imagine.

The skunk is currently dying in my back yard of what is likely Distemper, but animal control is coming to collect it as they have to test it for rabies. It was staggering around very neurologic spraying dogs/patio/trees. It's lovely.
Oh, and until they get rid of the skunk, the stinky dogs are closed up in the garage making it way stinky!!! Ugh, I have laundry in the washer out there!!

So today, I am deoderizing the world. I just came back from buying 2 gallons of hydrogen peroxide/Dawn/and baking soda at Walmart. I got LOTS of funny looks as I STINK!!!! Violently!!! I sent my poor kid to school and I am sure she smells too!!!!

Love it!! Thanx for listening!!! AMy

 

[mommaU4]

Ugh Amy, that SUCKS. I am so sorry. Darn skunks.
I hope the smell comes off quickly. I've also heard about using tomato juice but I don't know if that really works.

I hope your day gets better. Just keep telling yourself, "Soon I'll be at Disney. Soon I'll be at Disney."

 

[grizbuzz]

Love the t-shirt Callie!

Happy Birthday Cheryl

Sorry about the skunks grumpyvet Maybe a bath in V8 juice will help?

Here's a picture of me and the troops. And I won't be providing my weight/height and bra size, thank you very much

 

[Califgirl]

Oh Amy, I am so sorry to hear about your dogs (and house, laundry, etc!)

Een though we live in a fairly rural area, with LOTS of wild life, including the odd Bobcat, my dogs have never been skunked. But I am always worried that they will come across a rapid / distempered animal. Please let us know what works for you with the smell. Perhaps you could call "aussie wash" or "pooch caboose" whatever is in that pink trailer that comes to your house and washes dogs. For three of them it might be worth it to have them come out. I have two dogs, and manage on my own, but it can be a circus at bath time.
Good luck to you, and lots of perfumed pixie dust coming your way!
