I used to live at Pensacola, FL under their practice pattern. They are neat.

We had our kids start their retirement saving at age 21 when they graduated college. We have good retirement savings but we have lived a really frugal life with a good income.

I have a Disney trip staring that weekend just not in Orlando.

You all aren't getting excited are you?

I am going. What are you looking for?

Its in the works just waiting for days to pass!

I only asked for the bear, the cat, hotel rooms and the airfare from DH. I like being older!

That looks cute!

Don't tell DH they are on ebay.  I convinced him we needed to go to Tokyo to get them!

The cat's name is Gelatoni. He is grey and white.

The Shellie May I first saw was at Epcot.  A girl had just returned from Tokyo where they purchase her.  Is she the 17 inch with blue eyes?

I would be careful with the oatmeal. I put a bowl of oatmeal in the microwave for 1 minute 16 seconds. Any longer and it boils over really quickly. Then it becomes cement to clean!

After 2 years my DH still talks about the tour. It is a highlight of his life and he has been on a safari in Kenya!

How many of you wear costumes? If yes what have you gone as?

Happy Birthday!!!!!!! We hope you have a great day.

I also think DC might be difficult.  It is super spread out and when I go I average about 10 miles of walking in a day.  I did not find any of the entrances easy to find and there is a metal detector in every museum and building to navigate through.  (Bad day to wear a belt, watch or jewelry.

Is it lack of training or the general disrespect society has for others. In the past people acted with personal pride. Most no longer care what others think of them.

Happy Birthday!

the cost of airfare and parts of that trip might surprise you.

Thanks for the info. It should be a great weekend. DH is graduating there on a Friday and we will have extra time to go for some drives.

How many people are going the Disneyland this year?

Reverse questions for our California people.  I am going to Monterey for a weekend and tips?

I have turned in a bad driver before.  We received a phone call from transportation thanking us and explaining the driver would be given extra training.  I gave them the name of the driver, the time and the route we were on.  I can only hope it helped.

Happy Birthday!

 it is just a thought but the tea is only open a few hours with a small amount of tables.  If they had free refills they could end up with people bringing books and filling a table for the whole time.  That would prevent others from enjoying the experience.  Most beverages at WDW are not free refills are they?
