No, I've been thinking about her a lot too. I hope she is okay. I wonder if there is another way to track her down, not in a creepy way of course. I know she once said her daughter had a Disney blog and post a link to it but that was a long time ago but perhaps that might be a way. I just hope she is in good health and too busy with the grandkids to be on here.

Funny how many of us were thinking about her today. I was as well.

I will post the final result when we get them delivered. I just hope Kapono likes the new stuff too. I purposely didn't pick any of the pillow backed styles of sofas because I was pretty sure she would wind up laying or sitting on top of them to look out the window and then it would get all smooshed in a weird way.

I like your sofas. Good coice about the pillow back ones. We have those and we have one dog that lays and smooshes the pillows. The kids are not better either.

We had those as well

Looks like whoever made your BB8 cupcake didn’t take as much care decorating it as the one who did @StarWarsGirl . I am sure it was quite tasty though.

For those of us thinking about @betty rose, a friend in the Saget thraed has this to pass on. Her husband passed away.

In other news, just came back from from my favorite restaurant.

Funny that a small bunch of people said they would go but at the end noone could.
In the end it was just my family which is nice. I didn't expect much people to go anyway.
On the other good side, We talked about future vacations freely.

Where are you leaning on your vacations? Any Disney ones?

I have never been but if I ever come your way I will make sure to do so in summer.

I'll take you for some far better pizza than you endured at Pizza Ponte. We also have very nice drinking water too!

 

[Gabe1]

Nap-able is what we are aiming for!

Won't be disappointed. This is the ottoman he has for it, serves as a coffee table, ottoman and stores comfy pillows and blankets.
He usually has one flipped over for beverages etc. Works for additional seating too.

Yuck!

Snow they say shall start again at Midnight. I WAS able to actually leave for a while this afternoon. Note, Macy's is having their huge clearance sale. I bought a nice Fleece Fall type jacket, $89.00 for $14.82. My DD got a different style also $14.82 So many dirt cheap prices for quality. Shop till ya drop!

The hazards of Florida. I hope you have some lotion or aloe to put on, and I hope it isn't too bad of a burn.

It's one of those things we had a lot when little and I will not eat it now. Just like cold bologna. Nope, nope, nope.

Yep, had all a' that as a kiddo, too. Crazily enough, can still do all that now if need be...old habits die hard...?!

Ice from a plane? cargo problem? some silly man used a ice catapult?

Woof! Ya' just never know...thankfully, nobody was directly under that chunk when it landed...!!!

I went to the Dutch embassy today to pick up my new passport, luckily I got to keep my old one as it has quite a few stamps from my travels that are great souvenirs. My new passport is valid for 10 years and currently looks very clean and boring. It got me thinking about what I want to do in the next 10 years, where I want to go and what I hope my life looks like in 2028.

Oh, the hope for times and experiences yet to come...!!!!!!!

 

[donaldtoo]

I was meeting a friend around 5pm so had time to visit the Science Museum after I had picked up my passport.
They have an interesting space exhibit.
This planet kept changing while a recording gives you facts. This is Mercury, the smallest planet and closest to the sun, it orbits the sun in 88 days. The planet also changed into the sun, Mars, a moon of Jupiter, Earth and very distant planet that just had a number.

A great display of replica space crafts and gear. Among other things it explained how astronauts go to the toilet and sleep.

On the top floor of the museum is an exhibit on the history of flight. There was a replica of the first ever hot air balloon, they used hay to make it fly, and several other aircrafts. Lighting was poor so I couldn't get very good pictures.

Oh my! My love of all things space and flight...!!!
The Montgolfier brothers were the creators of the first hot air balloon, and I see a Harrier in that last pic...so cool...!!!!!!!
