I'm not a fan of buffets either but we did like TH better than GG. When we were at TH they trays were constantly being rotated the food at GG seemed like it was under a heat lamp longer That being said as long as the boys go with us there will still be buffets and all you care to eat places on our ADR list. CP breakfast is also still worth it for us

Yes, but unfortunately the mass produced food is being warmed in the kitchen before it exchanged in the sun lamp guest area. There are a few buffets I like (far from love) it just isn't a form of overall dining I like nor most of the food offerings especially at the price, a far upcharge from the Corral army mess hall style of dining.

QS doesn't bother me. High end prices for getting up and down and serving yourself not a fan. You all know me I am germaphobic. I just think of the hundreds and hundreds of people grasping the serving spoons. Bluck. They change out the food but not the serving pieces. Ewe.

Years ago we were at Mickey's and we all got up to grab some more food. Came back and our table had been cleared, new people had been seated at it. We had to wait for them to find us a new table to continue our meal. They were not overly concerned or apologetic. More we'll find you another table eventually type concern. I swear we should have just left.

Sympathy like. Hope all is fixed up now.

This @MinnieM123 Poor you. Did the car come back yet? I feel your pain. When my Dad passed last year was a few days prior my truck dropped its transmission. When the final call came I was carless and my Dad was real far away. The stars aligned and we got there but barely. Hope it all works out for you guys

It's been an interesting stretch for things either breaking or going offline. Lost power recently due to storms--that was understandable, and power came back on in a few hours.

Car broke recently; that's still in for repair, with delays from the holiday, for parts being sent in.

Then, the gas company decided to replace a pipe in front of the house over the weekend, and the guys checked in with hubs (who was home at the time) to make sure he still had hot water. He said he did. Next morning, there was no hot water. The gas company guys never thought to take into effect, that the hot water tank had some hot water still in it, when they asked him about it. (What happens when the remaining hot water runs out?!! Duhhh . . . ) So when the tank ran out that night, we had cold water. Hubs called gas company (his call was routed to New York--um, we live in MA . . . ) to come and fix this, and a tech came out--the installers never turned the gas switch back on in the basement!

Then last night we had another power failure--luckily a brief one this time. But there were no storms, etc., in area.

{{HUGS}} I hope you get a much needed half day Friday

They are advertising the carp out of this movie on Cartoon Network/Nickelodeon.

I'm so glad to have cut the cable

 

[Figgy1]

Almost to the weekend! Hang in there everybody and enjoy your day.

I have to hang on until Monday

I was annoyed with Coke. There early Sunday. The hole empty. Sold out in 30 minutes? No rainchecks.

Wait, what???? My Target has soda everywhere when it goes on sale. I'm wondering if it had to do with the 4 day holiday weekend.

I had the exact same experience with my first one. I was 32 and having lost my mom to breast cancer, and both of my grandmothers died of it as well, and all the female cousins have had it, we decided it was best for me to get a baseline to compare later. I was so scared going in, but it wasn't bad at ALL. I had a scare several months ago...I found a lump. That time was a bit more painful...not sure why, but still nothing to what I had even expected the first time. Still nothing to complain about. And it all turned out fine...just a lump of completely harmless tissue, so yay. But good for you that you went in and got it done, even though it was a bit scary. So many women don't. And just think how many women you can now encourage, and let them know it's not as bad as they are thinking it will be!

I'm so sorry. Have you looked into getting the test to see if you have the gene. One of the people we lost was to BC and she had the gene and found out too late. I hope you don't have it and that cluster of people was just a fluke. xoxo

Been about a year since I last posted on this site, but I'm back! I feel like I've matured a lot over that year as well, I had a strong feeling when I stopped coming on that I wasn't "cut out" for this site per se. I also became occupied with a different website, so I just stopped coming here all together, but I'm excited to be back.

Welcome back and thnx for the cute kitty pics

 

[Figgy1]

Ohhh @MinnieM123

Forget her I'm taking them oops never mind there's two of each

Man that stuff is in everything, food, beverages, fireworks. It is such a good chemical and at the same time a very scary one.

I was honestly really surprised!! We noticed the allergy when a pizza place gave us green olives instead of black. The first thing we did was go through the fridge and Mark everything that has it in there, and the only condiments we had left that she could eat were ketchup and mustard, lol. We've since found teryake sauce and BBQ sauce without sodium benzoate, but I was floored.

 

[Figgy1]

OK gang, Half-day Friday tomorrow, and I'm gone for now...!
Sweet Disney dreamin' and mornin' to all...!!!
See y'alllllllllll...!!!!!

Have fun and a beer for those of us that can't have one

add Bragg's Aminos to the safe list. It's soy sauce with no preservatives or gluten.

Good morning, well sort of. The weather is iffy so no pool for me today. The upside is I have some shopping to do, the downside my dh is off until Sunday and wants to go with me and James has to go to the library after he gets picked up I don't wanna have him go with me because it seems to cost me money every time he goes there The upside I carry nothing into the house

We just picked up refrigerator pickles from the farm where we get our eggs and I'm so excited she finally gets to try pickles! No preservatives!!

Thank you for huggies.

But, no half day for me. Actually, we've been also having some mega computer issues at work, and the tech guys have been trouble-shooting issues in my office, for the past two days. It's put us way behind in our work, on a short week to begin with. (Think I have some sort of black cloud hanging over me for the past two weeks?! )
