Morning girls! There was someone new here, on the last page, and now I lost her, not to mention forgetting her name! Drats! Didn't watch the "debate". And wish I could say I was interested in politics, but I'm really not.......
I think it should be like .... We vote for the best person......! Whoever has an outstanding reputation, has no wierd ideas, and with no party affiliation. We don't need to separate ourselves.. by a "party".... We just need someone we can believe in, who can address what the important issues are, and we would "elect" the best person.... Then whoever comes in second, would be the vice-president.
Without "parties" there would be no separation of ideas.... We make them talk it over... and agree on something. Same with the Senate and Congress. No parties.... Just good, reliable people that are honest, and not trying to live off of the donations that big business gets their nose into. I can't figure out the difference in the two anyway..... All's I know is they never agree.... on anything.
We all have enough sense to be able to figure out who is more trust-worthy... by their record.... Each candidate should have honesty, and be able to prove it.
We're all pussy-footin' around, and then lam-basting those we don't agree with. I just wish every-one would get along, do away with the separation of "parties" and work together for our country.... WE are supposed to run the government, and those we elect have to work WITH the people and get this country trust-worthy again.

Hey everyone,
Well I was only able to get a couple of hours of sleep and than I was out of the house before 8:30am. I am so tired. I'm going to go get some sleep while I can. My family and I our planning on going to a water park this evening to celebrate my niece's 10th birthday! Will check back in later.

I'm home. No sleep on the plane. Crashed at 6. Kids up at 4! Probably another early night. Have avoided caffeine all day so hopefully no hot flashes tonight.
Laundry washed but not folded. Empty cases everywhere. Just don't care. Opened 6 weeks of mail that should be enough.
Whomever was going to Ireland. May already be there? Hope you packed a jacket. I wore mine every day.

and yes sometimes my armpits feel chafed. Rads nor surgery took the hair! Make sure you a/d glides on. I've had to switch brands since some stick. May try the baking soda.
I try to be very aware when I shave so that I'm not pushing down too hard. No feelings. My LE PT would have a fit if she knew Iwas shaving.
I can't imagine hair that long. You are dedicated. I fuss when mine gets shoulder length and I can't roll over without getting stuck. Thank you for the care you take to donate it.

Zills - welcome back to the USA. Hope it was a wonderful trip. Discuss tea with us aficionados when you get a chance but 1st sleep. Love the 6 weeks of mail, hope it's all junk - or fun stuff to read - and DH took care of the important stuff.

Zills, that me going in 3 days!! We've been checking the weather. Taking sweater, jacket, rain coat and umbrella. I was told to get an electric shavers after bmx.. Use it once in a while, mostly for my legs. So much easier. I still have feelings there and the top half of the boobs. Nothing below the midline
Frenchfrey, explain your coloring book please. Can't tell from the pics what you have.
Lover, hope you landed safely. Wedding tomorrow? When do you see SAS and spookie? I'm jealous!
Boyd, love the hair.

Smaarty- (First and more importantly HAVE FUN ON YOUR TRIP!!! )
They are coloring books from crayola. You color them like any other book. The fun thing is they have a app you get for your phone and then you can scan the page you just colored and get a 3d image of your page. You then can use your phone camera and the thing comes alive. you can take pictures . the other images are 3 d images of these two pages.

going to have to check those coloring books and app out. At our support group they have brought in mandalas to color. Good therapy.
Spookie that sounds more Scottish than Irish. I know pandora didn't work over there. Kids and I like Irish music so found Gaelic station and jammed. I thought it was cool they would ring church bells at noon everyday on the radio. Had a word for it but never got the hang of it.
Smaarty . Who you flying with? My son who's six! was giving out for not flying Aer Lingus this time. He really liked his own tv. Had an older plane going over. Fab service on the way back. Individual tvs and even ice cream. It was American/USAir. My only complaint was they can't make tea like Aer Lingus. Even the food was good and lots of hydration opportunities.
Yes you will need a jacket. Mine was waterproof. I had a sweater too. Sometimes I wished I had brought a fleece. Don't take cotton socks. Your feet will freeze. I packed slippers for wearing in the house.
Have a wonderful time. It's very relaxing. Food is great. People welcoming.
Kids and I crashed again about 6 ish. Woke up at 9. Cold and queasy. Where is a cabana boy when you need him? A cup of sleepy time is what my stomach needs.0 -
sills, going with my SIL. We're flying USAir/American. Can't tell from description on their website if it's a new or older plane. We paid for upgraded seat, so hopefully we have free wifi. Otherwise, got books, newspaper and bringing my knitting. Oh yeah, coloring books too, but not like freys.
You're probably already in bed, so I hope you have a good night.
For those of you who have flown, how did you handle the jet lag? I'd like to take a 2-3 hr nap when we get to the hotel. Set all the alarms we have so we get up and go out for dinner. We land at 8:30 am, it will be 1:30 am for us. I hope we can get a couple hours sleep on the plane, but don't think that's going to happen. Any advice

Smaarty -- I usually nap on the plane and organize something to do the first day after we get off the plane so that I don't get into the hotel right away at check-in time and pass out. Then I have an early dinner and hope I can make it past 8 PM so I don't wake up too early. Are you flying into Dublin or Shannon?
I have flown US Air/American internationally several times. US Air, before the merger, had mostly newer planes with the in-flight wifi and individual tv screens. For my last trip to Germany and eastern Europe in October 2014, we flew United and also paid for the upgraded seats with an extra 5 inches of leg room and it was sooooo worth it.

Smarty, I've flown international a few times and DH does a lot. Sleep on plane as much as you can but don't go take a nap when you land. Just proceed with your day and turn in early I wasted my whole first day in Milan by laying down first and couldn't get up! Might take a sleeping pill on plane after dinner. A lot of folks do that but I'm always too excited Have fun!😉

guess I am the lone dissenter. I get in and get something to eat, then lay down. I awake in a few hours. It stays daylight until 10 and the pubs are always open. Usually close to schedule the next day.

Smarty- when I have flown over the pond, I usually do try to sleep for a few hours when I get there, and then get up to do something, even if it is just going out for dinner. Most of the time, I do okay until I am in the zone where day is night (tired), or night is day (awake). Within a few days, you should be fine. I find the biggest problem with jet lag is coming back west. Not sure why, maybe I am more excited being over there so I can deal with being a bit tired?
So excited for you! Ireland for sure on my bucket list!

I've never flown on a plane but if I could go to Ireland I would. I think my family is more Scottish though, but my husband's side is Irish. Funny thing my husband was putting together his family tree when he realized that we share a grandparent like 5 or 6 generations back. Lol She is a generation closer to me though, which she is on the Scottish side. Her last name is that of my mother's maden. Kinda strange but neat I guess. He sure loves to bring it up when we are at cookouts and around other people. Family events/reunions are his favorite place to let everyone know. Sorry just thought about that. My poor husband is having a hard time right now we received a call yesterday evening that his cousin who's 36 or so died in a car accident, leaving behind a wife and children. Please keep him in your thoughts. Okay well back to bed for me the water park was exhausting but got my exercise, the three flights of stairs I'd have to go up every time I wanted to go down the slides at least 7 times. I crashed immediately when we got home and slept incredibly well. Okay sorry so long. Goodnite all!

Smarrty, this has been in the topic box forever.. It has to do with flying. I put it in the topic box b/c it applied to us too. Have a fabulous time in case I don't get to say it before you leave.

I got these for DS when he went on the post high school grad trip. He thought I was uncool. I asked if he used them. He said he did part of the time when others weren't using them. I guess I wasn't so uncool. BTW this isn't DS.
