I've been having a hard time falling asleep for a few days, and when I do sleep, it's not good quality sleep. Yesterday, I woke up with swollen glands and a slightly sore throat, but I thought it could have been that we slept with the fan on all night because it was so hot this past week. But...

I'm so jealous of all of you!! I wish I could travel and meet you all there....that hit's both my birthday and A's and I've always wanted to spend a birthday at WDW. Someday.

I'm missing E. We brought her to Wageningen for her Intro week on Thursday. It really reinforces how glad I am that she'll be living at home for a while...I don't know how I will handle it when she actually moves out.

I just bought another Kristin Hannah one, but it wasn't this one, I don't think. I really like her books though...at least all of them that I've read. I just finished the last of the Rokesby series by Julia Quinn. First Comes Scandal. I liked it. Probably not quite as much as the Bridgerton...

It's good they have that!! Does he like to travel? A doesn't like being away from home and we've kind of learned that long trips are no fun for him. I really want to go to Disney/Universal for my 50th birthday, or probablly actually 51st so E is 21 and legal to share drinks with me, since I...

So today was the boss' first day back after vacation. I get to work and she was waiting outside because I had the key. I noticed she was a little bit pink, but she was just on vacation, and it's really hot the last couple of days, so I figured she got a little sun. We go inside, she turns on...

She's very immature, but I don't think sitting down with her would help. The boss already had a few talks with her about showing up on time and about being a team player and that you let the whole team down if you are late, etc...she was late several times after that, and even when she's there...

I loved Educated!! I knew someone on here read it and that's why I read it and it was so good, but I couldn't remember who. Has anyone read Daughter of Gloriavale by lilia Tarawa? That's another girl who was in a religious cult, but her father was the leader. I read it a couple of years ago...

I'm not a thrill ride person, so I don't care about the new coasters. I love the idea of Villains Land, and I think it could be awesome, but I don't need a coaster. That being said, I think it's appropriate. I doubt many littles will want to go to villains land...it's too scary for them. On my...

It's good that Nick at least knows his limits and takes the rest instead of pushing on and ruining it for the rest of you. Trust me when I say it's no fun to Disney with someone who really isn't into it but refuses to let the group split up. No one gets to have fun. I love Julia's swim suit...

If your experience is anything like mine, you'll have those issues for a while. Even a couple of years after my mom passed, I would think "Oh, I should call mom and ask her for her recipe for ....." or "Mom would know who this is in this picture...I'll call her." You just get so used to doing...

I'm guessing it's a larger issue here because this is a biking country. Most people use bikes as their daily transportation and we have bike paths everywhere to make that possible. They really want to incentivise biking rather than driving, so bikes basically have their own roads, and there's...

The last time I had to get my blood drawn, I was biking to the hospital (that's where the lab is) and had several people being idiots that I had to adjust for. There was someone coming from the opposite direction that was in my lane of the bike bath and I had to slam on my brakes and swerve to...

I'm so so sorry for your loss, and especially for Carolyn, and Matthew. My son had real issues when my dad died, too. It's really hard. I'm sorry I'm late to respond, but it doesn't take away from the sentiment. Losing a parent is one of the hardest things. I'm lucky enough to still have...

I've always told my kids you have to be GIVEN right of way. You can't just take it. Never assume a car is going to stop for you just because you have the right of way. The right of way does no good if you are in the hospital or dead. I'd rather give up my right of way than my life.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Although to be fair, this is coming from a woman who only wears makeup maybe 5 times a year and I mostly don't even use foundation, just a bit of eye makeup and maybe lipstick if I'm going to be on stage. I'm not an expert on makeup by any stretch. I HAVE a...

Oh, we're pretty sure she's not going to make it through the trial period. There's a 2 month trial period in which either the employer or the employee can call it off without notice. She's almost through it, but they have to have a conversation before the end of it to decide if she's going to...

See that's the thing I don't get....it's generally carbs that make you feel more full, not meat. I think my husband EXPECTS that it won't fill him up, or that he won't be as satisfied without the meat, so he THINKS he's not. But the reality is my husband is a huge snacker. He loves chips...

Sorry...this will be long, and possibly rambling. I'm trying to catch up, but it seems like AGES since I've been on here. I was on vacation and we didn't have very good wifi in some places, and then we got back and I had to go back to work. There's a newish girl who was hired on for vacation...

Last summer when we were in Disney, the temps were up around 113 every day for over a week. We seriously changed our plans. We spent a LOT of time at Epcot either in air conditioned shows in the pavilions or riding the land and soarin. Even the halloween party was over 100 degrees at almost 1...
