Wintergreen or spearmint, as I just have wintergreen, but, I have access to spearmint, too ...?!

Well, in that case, don't mind if I have one of both?!

@Rista1313 , my friends posted some clips from the New Kids, Tiffany, Debbie Gibson concert and Tiffany sounded fine, but Debbie was HORRIBLE. Really screechy and off key. She looked amazing, but sounded terrible.

Went back to where our first home was today. They have an awesome Art Fair each year. Then we stopped in at an Irish Pub & restaurant.

Good food as always. Brown gravy could rival mine.

One Pot Roast sandwich with fried green beans. Pot Roast sliders with garlic Mashed Potatoes. Only Pepsi. Too early for Pub spirits



Now off to dinner. Doubt I will catch up missing most of the week. Opps

Walt passed 6 months after I graduated from High School and was in College.

December 15th, 1966. A date which will live in Disney fan history.

Oh no! The poor girl! That must be extremely painful. I wonder how they treat that because you can't really put a cast on the collarbone.

I've had a few students in the past that have broken a collarbone and they have had to wear a sling with their arm strapped across their chest. From what they've told me it is pretty painful.

Sergio Valente?

There is a Gilda Radner SNL skit from way back in the day that I wanted to post about Jordache jeans, but, it’s a bit PI for today’s sensitivities...

@BuddyThomas , how did your test go -- o.k., I hope.

Thanks for asking. Clean bill of health. Hurray!

The prep was challenging, with the 24 hour fast and all, but the procedure was nothing. Everyone needs to do it once they turn 50.

Out for now gang...!!!!!!!
Pops family reunion tomorrow...and Emy’s first....!!!!!!!!!!!

I always cringe when fans quote Disney rack rates and whine that it is too expensive.



A Holiday High season price category. Be good consumers.

Happy Farm Market Saturday

Ours opened last weekend but I finally went today. Oy. A few radish, carrots, it was sad and as pitiful as it always is until mid July.

The upside is my Knife sharpening older gentleman was there!!!! I so need my pinking shears sharpened but he won't be back again for 2 weeks. I guess he now alternates between Saturday Farmers Markets and I was just missing him.

My DD landlord is sticking to his convictions of no Pups in her building. He allows them in all other buildings he owns, just not hers. Even his own kids have Pups in their dwellings.

Please send warts and scabs to him until he relents.

Glad to hear that!

The jug of hideous goop that they make you drink for hours was the worst part--even more than fasting from solid food for a day. (Oddly enough, the fast didn't impact me much at all.)

So, I was talking with one of the nurses while we were waiting for the doctor, and she mentioned there is a new prep out now, that isn't nearly as hideous, and you drink a lot less of it.

The problem is that because it's a newer prep, it costs more than the original junk. Hence, most insurance companies are bucking it, and only paying for the original nightmare prep. (I actually puked up the final third of the prep, so was unable to finish that last third of the bottle. ) But apparently I drank enough of that carp to do the trick.

(I also can't stand the "one size fits all" approach with the prep. If i managed to keep down 2/3 of it and had an excellent prep (as the doctor wrote in the patient notes), then why subject everyone to that entire jug of hell? I'm hoping that in 5 years (when I have to be tested again), the price will come down so that I can use the newer stuff. I'd even pay out of pocket for it.

A couple of weeks now. Is the public school done, or did he just finish early?
Forgot about Jordache.

He's done early.
