Good afternoon homies

I finally got the weekend off for once

I feel like Robo's lazy lion today, probably going to just do laundryand call it a day.

Good news is it rained again last night and only 1 month until I'm back home

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend

Have a great weekend off Vicki.........take it easy..........

Glad journey went smoothly.......have a fabulous trip!



Had friends over tonight for dinner........they arrived very early as our weather was treacherous.......rain like I've never seen and high winds too.........roads closed due to flooding and all sorts.........but they made it.

Meal was lovely, Thai chicken and shrimp curry and cocktails........nice. Weather has eased, it's just chucking it down now..........

Think it'll be an early night tonight...........

24 days till we fly for us.............

My cucumber plants are played out = back to paying $1 a piece for them @ grocery store. Managed to put up one more batch of pickles today.

Tomato plants starting to get ratty looking too, might have something to do with September right around the corner. Wah

Toying around with modifying our first Disney stay of October trip, tho I'm pretty sure even my easy-going DH will put his foot down on idea of moving 4 times over 13 days. Would save on our points and had planned on doing SW on the 2nd day anyway in lieu of WDW...working on my proposal lol.

Unofficial survey question, give me your 2 cents homies:

Which resort would you think would offer better chances of an early checkin on Sunday, October 2nd for a standard room?

A). Cabana Bay (really not feeling it with no boat service, not sure where one would grab shuttle back to resort after HHN or if we'd manage to find it haha)

B). Sapphire Falls

C). Royal Pacific (where I rarely get an early checkin, sometimes have to wait until after 4 pm groan)

Janet, the pickup place for CB is down the escalator near valet parking if my memory serves me right

We were able to check in at CB around 2 pm but arrived on 9/29 last year so it might have been a slower time than you're going.

I think it all is the luck of the draw really. I would go with whatever resort you prefer to stay at SF is new so who knows? It also offers boat service so that's a plus.

I would vote for SF. I do not think it would be as crowded as the other two. Plus, get a boat, and new, and not too much further than RP.

Just chilling.

 

[Robo56]

Keisha my vote is RPR. You will have your EP if you need it and your boat.

I'd be showing up @ approx 10 am. Not especially interesting in EP that day or the next, focus on meeting friends and HHN that night. Usually do the pool before HHN and arrive in the park around 3 pm...old broad has to pace herself you know lol.

Ah ok, that's right re the shuttle. I had hoped maybe in HHR parking lot where we've caught the shuttle back to RP/PB when it's stormy.

Speaking of stormy, several rolling thru our area, hope it knocks the humidity down a tad.

Fear the Walking Dead on tonight, I'm excited. Strain starts up next Sunday I believe.

Troops starting to stir, time to go make that big breakfast spread. May let the mr do the grilling honors for the steaks later if still rainingwitches melt.

@tink1957 those are the best kinds of weekends - hope you get to relax

YAY!! So close.

Meal was lovely, Thai chicken and shrimp curry and cocktails........nice. Weather has eased, it's just chucking it down now..........

24 days till we fly for us.............

Yummy! How do you do all this cooking???

37 days....

YAY for all the homies going home soon. I am thinking we may do a last minute trip around 9/9 ish. Thinking a day or two onsite and then Bonnet Creek. I will see what is available.

Which resort would you think would offer better chances of an early checkin on Sunday, October 2nd for a standard room?

If I had to gamble - i would pick sapphire falls. they keep sending me offers so i wonder how packed it is. since you don't need EP, this is a great way to check out a new resort

Naw, you ugly crying? Never. Thanks for the review, most I've seen are stellar as to layers in the story. How heavy into the evil aunties/grandpa, mommy issues does it delve? Interesting story line, sorta amps up the whole Disney kill the 'rents thing haha.

Would you think a mature soon-to-be 6 y.o. Would handle? She's not exactly a sheltered kiddo, likes a good horror flick but not of the r-rated variety.

Saw sausage party last night. Funny in parts and that kinda humor. Was short, but that is fine, good story, but all the stuff about was enough. Took my almost 15 DD in. Guy letting us in, said to me, are going in with her, when looking at her. Umm, she can curse just as much, and well, now there isn't much our teens do not know. Plus, it was all with comic food doing it. So, not as graphic.

I would like to see Kubo. Do not like I may be crying at the end Robbie. Still will see it one of these days.

Hot hot hot day. Bought some really good looking steaks. Will pop them on the grill awaiting the thunderstorms. Hope we get dinner in before the rain.

Bought a cheesecake for birthday. I am glad my whole family will eat it. I am going to hide a piece to take to eat tomorrow. If I know the family, it will not last long. So happy Costco sells the Cheesecake Factory ones at a discount.

There were kids behind me at our showing that seemed to like it. It's not like super super intense, but it's definitely emotional. And the animation is just beautiful.

Birthday?

Birthdays just scream cheesecake

 

[Lynne G]

Birthday?

Birthdays just scream cheesecake

Yes, I am 39 again.

And, since I am not a big fan of cake, I ask for cheesecake and fruit for my birthday. Rained out, so steak in the broiler instead. Made ice tea, as it still feels muggy, even in the steady rain.

 

[macraven]

Lynne g
Could not find a cheese cake
So sending group hugs to you

Maybe one of our bakers can do another cheesecake for youse !

 

[keishashadow]

I sniffed one out!

 

[keishashadow]
