Ok, this is just silly. I just called TD bank in Canada to do a transaction and it was so easy and she was so nice it made me laugh!

On another note, I have just been looking for accomodation for my Sister and BIL and my Nephew as they have an opening in St. Louis tomorrow, so my Nephew will have his surgery then, they just called her an hour ago, so she is busy running around doing stuff. My BIL gets in from Hawaii at 4 pm today and they will then drive to St. Louis.

Oh and they are moving to Hawaii, which is great!

Oh wow! That's just awesome on both counts, Trailmix! Holy mackerel! I can't believe the speed of that! Good thing they're not waiting for that same surgery in Canada. This time next year we'd be asking you if he'd had it yet. :lol: Okay, well that was a slight exaggeration.... but not by much. LOL

Oh! When are you moving to Hawaii, Trailmix?!!! :lol:

Did anyone watch the city lastnight?

I love Kelly Cutrone. I think she's awesome.

Oh yeah!! Never miss it. I love Kelly too, she is so out there. I think I might have been a bit offended too since she kept repeating herself and assuming skinny girl had a problem, but Kelly says what's on her mind!!

so my mom has been saying that they might come down here for Spring break and they were thinking of driving...

hubby and I were talking about it this morning that maybe they should fly...

so I was just doing a search for flights and I found an awesome deal with Alaska Airlines... $696 return airfare for 5 people flying from Seattle to Los Angeles..

I phoned my mom and told her and she is going to talk to my dad but it looks like she really wants to book the tickets..

I think it would be better because they would have more time to spend here and I think it would be cheaper then driving down...

ok i just found an even cheaper flight... 596 dollars for 5 people.. they would just fly into a different airport .. instead of LAX , they would fly into LGB.. which is even a little closer...

my only problem now that i didn't think if before.. is that if all 5 of them come I don't have enough room in my car and my hubby has to work... :unsure:

Keep checking the flights every day twice a day at least, because they always end up dropping at a certain time during the week. I think every airline is different as to when they drop their prices.

yeah, I did find one for almost 100 bucks cheaper, just flying into a different LA area airport..

I doubt it.. I it is written into our rental contract.. we are planning on moving by the end of the year so maybe we will try and find a pet friendly place..
