I really should hire you to decorate my house, it would be the perfect mix of Disney and palm trees

And not a Palm in my House. 5 real Palms and one fake in the backyard. The 5 should be dead in a month.

Hubs just told me that the Holly station on Sirius XM Radio starts on Wednesday morning. And the Hallmark channel is now showing the Christmas movies.

By the way your palm tree decoration in a previous post looks lovely to me.

Yep, we're watching My Christmas Dream on Hallmark right now...

My husband spends way too much money on candy. He never gives it all away either. We do have a lot of trick or treaters, but he is quite excessive. He only buys chocolate, and I stay away from it all together. I don't need either the calories, or the belly ache.

MORE FOR HIM! XD

Baltimore, Boston, and another city in MA -- along with a bunch of other cities/states. They're all trying to lure Amazon (oh by the way, @donaldtoo , Austin is one of them).

Oh, hubs also received a package today (Sunday delivery).

My DD Amazon came today. Mail Carrier standing outside with package ringing doorbell. Guess sign on the door saying mailboxes on the Southside wasn't going to happen.

 

[donaldtoo]

And they are now open. I just need to find the time to go!

Oh boy!!! ASAP...!!!!!!!

 

[donaldtoo]

Maybe

 

[donaldtoo]

Seinfeld, Friends...no.
Frasier...OK. Liked the old man the best.
Cheers, Everybody Loves Raymond, and The Big Bang Theory...YES...!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[donaldtoo]

Ha! I took a pic of that too when I was down there last month, me too-thoughts went right to @donaldtoo

OK, I thought this might be in Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar, but, I Googled pics and don't see it there...
Please, where is this...?!

 

[donaldtoo]

Oh that is precious!! What a wonderful guy!

Although, I'm lacking these days on my Mickey and Goofy drawing skills, I used to draw them darn good when I worked at the Disney Store.
Easy enough to learn. Probably shouldn't be too tough to get back...!!!

Oh yes, been in the news 'round here for a while.
We're "weird" and cool and all that jazz, but, our roads and mass transit are carp-city.
50,000-ish new jobs and incomes, + all the ancillary new jobs and incomes would be awesome financially, but, in the end, I don't think we're even close to being able to handle it. I would be extremely surprised if we got chosen.
Plus, Amazon, obviously, ain't stoopid...they got all the bureaucrats carping themselves sideways all over the entire country falling all all over themselves in beyond stupid ways.
It's actually pretty hilarious...!!!!!

I heard one town, I think it was in Georgia, offered to change the name of their town to Amazon if it was chosen.

Yep, I heard that on GMA one morning last week.
It is what it is and we'll see how it all plays out over the next year or so. At least I think I heard it was gonna' be about a year from now before they make a final decision...things are gonna' probably get even way more beyond crazier, and ya' know Amazon is lovin' it...!!!!!!!

Surprisingly my house has very little Disney theming, most is kitchen plates, salt pepper shakers. I do have the monorail set though that goes around a Christmas Tree from the Contemporary to Epcot.

But I can help. My DS has quite the collection of Disney Decor in both his office and his apartment, some nice paintings too, all low key. I love that he looks at a picture of SSE at nightime. His office also has the I spy type of Lion KIng framed and matted with hidden images within the design that ya gotta look for. He has a Disney Transportation shelf with all the modes of transportation. Then there is the Toy Story Shelf. In the corner of his office by his guest chairs is a pretty large LifeGuard Mickey. One side of his taller filing unit has all of his favorite magnets. His office is not tiny so it is all accent pieces and not overwhelming.

My DD has LIfeGuard Minnie in her apartment, now one of those Main St Mickey pumpkins, calendars and a few smaller statues on her book shelf and on her Dresser. Her home is more Disney-fied than mine but less than her brothers.

Only a 40 minute wait for Haunted Mansion tonight at the Halloween Party. Flight of Passage only 160 minutes, Frozen 60,
Soarin and as usual Test Track broken.

Happy Halloween!

Thank goodness it wasn't wine

Could have been wine I spat but it was morning so if it wasn't hash brown casserole it would have likely been coffee.

 

[donaldtoo]

It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown is on...!!!!!

 

[Gabe1]

We don't go through enough dd to get it in a big bag. I think they also have the Kcups at both.

Yep. I have DD kcups too. Can find them just about everywhere but prices to greatly vary. Same with the ground DD coffee

 

[Gabe1]

Coat rack. He got it for me thinking I would use it. A very sweet thought but I much prefer walking outside, working out to a dvd or just going for it with music. It's right up there with the other clothes rack a Total Gym. He asked for that one year.?????????

We have clothes racks too. A total gym and an elliptical. And if the weight bricks on a pulley system are not enough we have a wide assortment of bar bells, kettle balls and hand weights. I've been dusting the cobwebs off them for well over a decade though my DS when he lived at home did use them when he didn't want to go to the fitness center.

I view exercise equipment the same way I view the latest need for additional tools.

For @Gabe1
