Love it! reminds me of Harry Potter, even though I'm trying to watch SW marathon

I completely forgot that was on today. Too hyper-focused on Gilmore Girls. By the time I remembered, Jedi was on, and my parents said no to turning it on during dinner.

Is there an end in sight? Really? If so thank you. Best news all day.

Yes, it is true, it does end. They stop growing upwards, they stop the shoulder spread and all of a sudden they are all grown up. The double edge sword. Then when you thought the food bills were behind you-you get to finance college that makes food bills seem like child's play.

 

[Gabe1]

Gilmore Girls, of course.

Fixed that for you.

Our evening was lovely. Everybody left stuffed. Well, everyone except the person who will only eat the turkey and the cranberry sauce (namely me. Satisfied, not stuffed).

And here is the latest Grandma trying to matchmake story...
Grandma: "I know this nice young man who says he also doesn't want to get married, but his family wants him to get married, and when I told his family about you, they kept asking me when you were going to come up and visit me because they really want him to settle down. He owns a car and he's ready to buy a house..."
Me: *drinks half a glass of wine in under three minutes*

Oy. Sometimes people just need to mind their own. It does get old.

Evey mom everywhere says where's my grandkids or when I was your age, I had 3 kids. You also have to factor in the passive aggressive attitude too: muttering under the breath, making comments about it not related to the topic.

Yep, not this Mom.

I made sure they were well educated kids, entering the world ready to take her on. If they fall in love and want to marry so be it. If not, God Bless them. I love babies, other peoples babies anyhow. They take a lot of work, total devotion of time and money. That certainly has to be an individual choice not one that other people push others into let alone guilt them into.

As long as they all have plenty of fungi, bamboo chutes, and tofu in 'em...!!!

Yes, yes and seriously do you even have to ask about tofu

That's very sad. unfortunately even church records from where my grandfather was from can't be located because of WW 2.

In Ireland (and I assume other countries around there), pre-1900s, the births were generally noted in church records. However, what many people nowadays don't realize, is that the records were not always accurate. Sometimes they'd "approximate" the actual birth dates.

I hope you get everything your want! We start shopping next week.

Thank you and I got everything on our list and I'm heading out to grab a few things today, mostly food

What? SW is one of the few movies where we'll all eat in the living room. Those and the Muppets Christmas Carol. Some things are worth breaking the rules for

Good morning, it's going to be weird not going to the farm market today but I am going to one of the farms to get eggs

As soon as we got home my dh started popping in DVDs. Today he'll most likely get to the Blu Rays, No commercials

Best part of the whole film,

Sings "this is my Island in the sun "

@StarWarsGirl , your thread, "A Word With Friends" remains one of the most popular over in the Disney Trivia and Games forum. With my post to it a few minutes ago (prior to 5:30 AM), the number was 26,887!!

Just sayin . . .

It's addicting.

I don't think I've ever had less than a dozen eggs in my refrigerator. I remember one year I had to make 16 dozen deviled eggs for three big holiday parties. I didn't want to eat an egg until Easter that year.

My mom and I watched the first two today. We probably would have watched all of them, but my dad wouldn't let us on the good TV, so we'll finish up tomorrow. Speaking of which, I'm not sure how, but somehow I've gotten my mother hooked on GG as well. I didn't think she'd want to watch with me, but it appears she does. Might have something to do with me being home a couple of days sick and doing nothing BUT watching that show. That might have done the trick.

Did you ever watch Glee?

I got a card for my mom's birthday yesterday. Lower price because I refuse to pay more than $4 for a card even that is pushing it. Spending $2 on Black Friday when my sister spent a couple hundred.

I know I've posted this before, but, again, and for no particular reason, one of my favorite John Hench early Space Mountain concept renderings...
