I like to chit chat. Don't really know if any of you will have anything in common with me except for Disney. I just turned 13 two days ago and finishing the 7th grade. I am home schooled by my Mom. My name is Kaylee. Hopefully I won't be too out of place.

Thanks Betty! It has been crazy. No I don't want snow in late April! That is too late for me!

A few times, I've seen spring flowers like crocuses come up through the snow in April, if we have a late season storm. It's pretty!

 

[MinnieM123]

Good, we just got home, and it's snowing! It was not expected. It's my birthday snow! not!

It's good luck if it snows on your birthday, you know.

I love bread and butter pickles. I make refrigerator pickles in the summer. We had a bumper cucumber crop 2 summers ago and the fridge was never devoid of pickles. Last year our garden did not do well, so not as many. Here's hoping for a good year this year.

Ant season has already been here. And this year, those little suckers seemed to love the vinegar! I have been using this stuff

I have been spraying it around the foundation outside mostly. It keeps washing away when it rains, so I have to reapply often. And it is ok to use on the counters. Mostly peppermint and rosemary extracts, so I don't have to worry about Jasmine with it.

Sounds like, for your ants anyway, vinegar was an acquired taste...?

Atta girl !!

So do you remember Ford chewing gum?

or remember Disney's Pluto the Collapsing Dog?

Or the day you could mail a letter or make a phone call on most major corners?

Or the day you could purchase cigarettes as easily as a bottle of water?

Did you play KerPlunk? (I still have mine)

Do you remember the creepity Mr. Clock from Capt. Kangaroo?

Do you remember making hard plastic labels?

Did your home have this doll house during your childhood?
My Sis did. (Me I liked guns, GI Joe and baseball more)

I remember all of the above...!

Okay you guys. So.......the video of the full production of my newest play Wonderland Wives just dropped on YouTube. It was produced last year at the Phoenix Theatre and it got really great reviews. It's a very R rated adult take on everyone's favorite fairy tale princesses as they barrel into middle age. It's for mature audiences with very immature taste. The production that Phoenix did is pretty hysterical. I want to post a link so bad, but that would violate every term of service on here and I think I would be banned for life. If you need a laugh, and you can tolerate some curse words and seeing your princesses in a few compromising positions (and a few of them played by men), I hope you will go to YouTube and search Wonderland Wives. It will pop right up. Act One and Act Two are both there, and as long as you are not easily offended, I hope you will have a lot of fun. Here are some pictures from the production. I hope you'll watch the videos.

lmao, the queen looks SOOO done XD

 

[donaldtoo]

Us too. I really don't get The Disney Stores business model. There is such a strong market of fans out there, majority of states and they have limited their demographic to very young children. Why? Don't they pay attention to what we adults purchase on vacations? Even a freak'n antenna topper rack only takes a few square feet and they would be constantly sold out.

Oy.

We do stop in frequently on our trips to Wisconsin at the Disneyland outlet in Gurnee Illinois. They tend to have more of selection for adults. Marginally though.

Yep, until we quit carrying them at the Disney Store, the antenna toppers only took up one level out of 6 (divided into several sections for the different styles) of our souvie tree fixture.
Was not happy when we quit carrying them.

I have this one on my present ride, but, it's pretty trashed because I transferred it from my old ride...



And this one in reserve...

I hope you watch the video.

Its not going grey. Its a reflection off my halo

Hahaaa...!
Yes, y'all spell it "grey" and we spell it "gray"...!
My halo went from gold to gray...way back in the day, my "halo" was as golden as a field of wheat...

 

[donaldtoo]

ok That explains the whole snow thing

 

[donaldtoo]

I'm a bit upset. It seems between chorus and band we won't be able to get away for even a long weekend this summer I guess I'll be at the pool quite a bit It's not getting away but it's not home

Half a sympathy like...?!

 

[donaldtoo]

Wow, those kids will have a dream house. Had to smile, though, as I thought back about my siblings and me (4 of us) when we were kids. We had a (finished) basement where we'd play on rainy days. There was a large wooden box (about the size of a steamer trunk), that all our toys were in. Some toys were in good shape; others were older and had broken/missing parts, but still ended up in the toy box.

Yet, since we didn't have all the most expensive toys, it actually spurred us on to be more creative with what we had. So in that sense, I'm kinda glad we didn't have a trophy play area.

Sounds kinda' like us.
We had no basements in Texas, Alabama, or Cali., but, we did have toys that sound a lot like y'all's, and in those climates we were able to play with them outside most of the year.
Plus, yes, we made up many of our own games, and played traditional games (board games, hide and seek, etc.)...!

 

[donaldtoo]

Here you go!

That only works if ya' win the lottery...!

 

[donaldtoo]

Oh joy another mouth to feed

Whether it's a horse or a car, it's still another "mouth to feed"...!!!

Crisp but dry when I shot this. They say the rain is going to return.
