Back to real life and 4 nightshifts now, so pass the coffee for me please!

Grammie might be good, too. In the end, I'm sure once Skylyr grows up a little and starts to talk, he'll come up with his own name for me. Hey 999, shall I call you when we are bringing him to DL for the first time??!!!

Originally Posted By TXDISNEYNERD Not in a hurry, but grandma will work just fine for me. So glad to hear you are off crutches MM. Way to go!!! Yesterday marked my 6 week mark until DL. I was excited as I was able to get the schedule for our first day off the DL website. DL is going to be open from 8 AM until midnight so I guess they are expecting big crowds. Hopefully, since it is the first day of extended hours, we will just get the benefit of everything being opened longer and more shows without too big a crowd. One can hope.

I have the coffee ready smeds Yep we enjoy our grandson We try to have him here one weekend a month to give his parents a break and Dave gets to run around like a kid Grandson is a HUGE Disneyland/Star Wars/Indiana Jones fan so the "boys" get along well Being called Grandma and Grandpa just came naturally to us. His other grandparents already had names from other grandchildren I know of some hysterical stories of how grandparents got their names Grandson #2 will be born in late April/early May Time to move over the light sabers/swords and Wii games to make room for the pack and play and swing

Boy, is it NEAT to see 3D in your living room! Now I have to buy a PS3 tonight. More expense, but worth it. Then on Saturday the DirectV guy is coming to upgrade us to an HD receiver so we can truly see what this TV can do. Oh the joys of tax returns LMAO!

A bonus that you will now have a PS3 We just returned from an unplanned trip to Reno. Had a fun time and now back to reality. Wine coolers anyone? I'm feeling retro

The friend then responded that no like things are coming at you to which my DH told him he could throw something at him and he could experience that. I don't think the friend ever got it. lol

That's a long time for me!!! lhave Valentine decorations,but need someone to get on a ladder for me to hang stuff from the ceiling,my leg is not quite ready for climbing yet.
Originally Posted By amazedncal2 I'll climb up on a step ladder, is that high enough? I also have one of those reacher/grabbers (as seen on TV) that we can use. I'm setting out the valentine mugs. Disney characters of course LOL about your husband's friend and 3D TX murfsmom, one of my sons can't see in 3D. He had eye surgery as a baby. When we would take him for his yearly opthamologist visits he drove the MD crazy because he "wouldn't" pick up the "fly wings" or whatever. No doctor he is not being stubborn he can't see the dang things. Cupcakes anyone
