What are mall bangs?

That was the style in the 80s...google mall bangs and you'll see. The tall, foofy bangs.

or as I like to call it. Leif Erikson Day. The first known European to discover America.

Why the weird bold letters. I have no idea.

I just call it stock up in Italian food at the supermarket time. I never met a sale I didn't like.

I loved talking to you too. I guess I have a very difficult decision to make. I got a call from the Doctor today. He went through all the blood tests and blood pressure values. I can't have more thyroid meds, it could cause me to have a stroke. I'm going to Disney and he says I can't do rope drop, or keep the kids or DD schedule, he want's me to relax. And I need to check with him when I get back. This is difficult for me, as I have been able to keep up. I know DD will do what the kids want, and I expect them too. How do I break it to her we will be on a different vacation this time? I've always loved the time we have spent with the GK and DD. I know she will be very disappointed, and hubby wants to protect me. What to do? Keep quiet or spill the beans. I don't want to ruin the trip for the GK and DD or hubby. Any suggestions? Should I just say I'm not feeling well and I need more rest? Any ideas from anyone will be very appreciated. xoxo

I'd go with the I just need more rest no reason to worry everybody but make sure to get your rest. Take care of yourself. That being said let your dd know what's going on when you get home.

I'm sorry you had to experience that. My Mom was so angry at my choice she chose to have nothing to do with my wedding. She made my sister do the mother things.

That's so sad, nobody deserves to have the happen.

Candy was EXPENSIVE!!!!!!!!!!! And a lot of it was stuff I could get at WalMart or our grocery store for cheaper. No way I'm spending $6 on a candy bar when I could have went to the buffet and ate as much chocolate cake as I wanted for free.

That's the sign of intelligence!

 

[Figgy1]

Yep, same here.
And, no Half-day Friday tomorrow.
Need to make up hours for missing work from pops surgery and my procedure, to save vacation days.

Good morning and Happy Farm Market Friday! My usual one will be closed tomorrow so I'm off to another one today, it's bigger than the one closer to me. Best of all my dh is going with me. Last night he announced he needs to drop a few pounds before our trip. He also said he going to start working out. He says the same thing before every trip. At least he's showing an interest in veggies, no wait the one I'm going to today has a guy who sells maple syrup and maple candy Have a great day and keep @MR FERRET in his cage thnx

Yesterday and today in my English class we watched the movie 28 Days Later. I'm not normally one for zombie flicks, but this one was so well done and interesting that it was just awesome in every way.

I fail to see the educational connection.

Nevermind I saw it. I still think it's weird though.

 

[betty rose]

That's very inspirational. (P.S.: I'm glad that you and Mr. Bets found each other and our Chit Chat thread, too!)

Thank you, I am too.

I think I'll let @MR FERRET out for a few hours. We wouldn't want him to get any crazier then he already is!

I still can't stand the taste of dark chocolate, but I'm starting to despise chocolate that is way too sweet. I'm almost out of luck with chocolate right now!

I'll eat yours!

 

[betty rose]

That is tough news from the doctor. Take it easy we definitely don't want you having a stroke. I am confused though, why did he say you can't do rope drop? I understand why he would want you to slow down and rest more but can't you build in more relaxation time? If you like starting the day with everyone why not do that and then take a long afternoon break the grandkids go either stay at the parks or go swimming. Then you could spend a couple hours in the park and head back to the resort at a reasonable time to get decent sleep.

Overall though, I think you should be honest about your situation, my mom wasn't totally up front about her health situation and now that she is gone I wish she had told me more so I could have helped or at least spent more time with her. They are your family and love you; they want you to feel well. I would think they would understand your need to slow down and get more rest. I'm sure they would rather slow down and have you around than not have you there at all. They can still tour on their own and when you meet up for a meal, they will have a lot to talk about.

Great suggestions. I've thought it over, and I'm doing to do rope drop. Morning is the best time of day for me. And it's cooler with smaller crowds. We do have what we call a "Bench program", we get tired...go sit on a bench and people watch. Now, if Disney would just supply more bench's in Magic Kingdom! lol

In fourth grade we switched teachers for math and reading. I was in the "dumb" math group (I hate math) but the advanced readers. Guess what skill I use more of everyday....yep reading!

Math was never my forte' but I was good in reading and I love to read, hubby is good in the math things.

I worked at a movie theatre in the food court. A family of four could easily spend $100 on tickets and if they bought any overpriced food and that was ten years ago.

Note: Never have movie theatre popcorn in the morning.

I love the bench program. I do it all the time. I could people watch all day.
