07/22/2006 - The Oh-Seven Double-Deuce Double Dip Desperados!

[deelee2]

Well you are not going to believe this but I have my Palo ressie's made at 8:30 am at work this morning. Got Thurs. night for party of 4 exactly what I wanted. Apparently it has something to do with my computer and the cookies in it (even though I have deleted all and temp. internet files). You may want to try a different computer if you are having problems. I know it is crazy but if you are desperate like me you can try!!! At least I can sleep tonite.

Thanks for the idea Deelee,
I tried deleting the temp files, and the cookies, but that didn't work. So I went to the computer in the den, and was able to get right into the spa reservations. I have no clue why I could book Palo and excursions on my laptop, but not the spa.

Anyway, we got the exotic rasual for Costa Maya morning, since DH and DS excursion isn't till noon. What a way to start the day!!

 

[deelee2]

Great Bethipooh! That morning rasul was a little early for me ! I went for an afternoon appt with the dh! That was the easiest spa appt sell ever!

Yeah, that 8 am spa is wayyyyyy early..OH WELL, got to do what we can when you travel with kids...

We are also scheduled for the July 22nd - this will be our 9th Disney Cruise. It will be me, DH, DS (9) and DD (15) - any other 15 year olds going on this one? Sounds like there will be a lot of kids for my son. My daughter thinks she owns the ship since we have been so many times. It is the best family vacation!!!

 

[jazstar87]

Welcome aboard!


Nine times! i have only went once...

 

[Bethipooh4]

Welcome!!!
I also have a DS who is 9, and a DS who just turned 16.
This is our 3rd Disney cruise, but our first on the Magic. I can hardly wait!!!

 

[Daffydee]

Welcome, My sons are 15 closer to 16. They'll be 16 days shy of their 16th birthday. This is our 2nd Magic cruise and I just can't wait. I look forward to meeting everyone.

[Bethipooh4]

HEY GANG!!!!!

It's only 84 days!!!

Is anyone as excited as I am getting?

 

[mom2missmous]

Bethipooh4- Yup, we are excited around here. In fact, thinking about the cruise is the only thing getting me through this nasty grad project( 80+ pages and counting!! My new least favorite four letter word is DATA) Oh well back to work lol!

 

[Bethipooh4]

Hope the grad project is going well. Kudo's to you!!!!!

I'm getting antsy here, starting to look for clothes and shoes. DH has told me I am NOT allowed to take a whole bag of shoes this time....I replied with, but honey, its a week long cruise, the shoes need their own bag...

Somehow he did not find it funny.

 

[deelee2]

Bethipooh shoes do need their own bag! Honey will figure that out when he needs somewhere to put his brown dress shoes, black dress shoes, sandals, tennis shoes and flip flops. At the last minute mine always seems to want to SHARE mine and my daughter's shoe bag after nagging me for a month about it. I am trying to cut back though . Last year I regretted cutting back and ended up wearing black sandals with everything and got really tired of it (not like anybody really cared but me). I did buy a new bathing suit this weekend and I am getting really excited !

 

[Bethipooh4]

Bathing suit is a bad word here right now..lol

I have figured out the shoe dilemma.....
Technically they aren't ALL shoes, some are sandals, some are sneakers, some flip flops, etc...so I can honestly tell him the bag isn't full of "shoes"

Think he will fall for it????

 

[iggbees]

i've got my bathing suits all figured out (one from last year, one from this year), but what i'm really having a hard time doing (aside from losing a little weight to fit nicely into said bathing suits, is finding capris or clamdiggers. i've checked everywhere i can think of and have found nothing. old navy's fit weird, so those are out. any clue where to find them?

ps. only 80 days!

 

[Bethipooh4]

I need clothes period...

I started weight watchers back in Jan. Have lost 21 lbs as of this morning.

I did see a cute dress at Old Navy, but you are right, the clothes there fit funny.
As far as capri's, have you tried Target?

 

[michpoit]

I know what you mean Bethipooh, I started Jenny Craig in January and have lost 24 lbs which I am just thrilled over but I have only 2 pairs of shorts that fit. Darn, guess I'll just have to do some more shopping! Congrats on losing the 21 lbs! That's awesome!

 

[Bethipooh4]

Congrats on your 24 lbs Michelle, that is terrific.

I feel your pain on the clothes, I have 1 pair of capris and maybe 3 pairs of shorts(with belts) that don't swim on me. All my shirts are starting to fall off my shoulders.
I am trying to hold off on buying anything till late June, and now I wish I took home ec so I knew how to sew.

 

[Daffydee]

Congrats to both of you on your weight loss. I should be so lucky. I know how hard it is to lose the pounds and you guys should be very proud of yourselves.

Dee

 

[Bethipooh4]

Thanks Dee!!!

I hit a plateau this week on the weight loss, but it's ok.

The goal is 30 lbs by July 20, so I am close to getting there.
I think I may go to the mall today and JUST LOOK....

Of course, if I see shoes, all bets are off. I just have to come up with another word for them, so DH can't tell me no more shoes for the shoe bag.
And of course, purses....

I wonder if he will let me have a shoe/purse bag?? He just doesn't get my obsession.

I wonder if he will let me have a shoe/purse bag?? He just doesn't get my obsession.

No we really don't. I only have a couple um, guidelines for my wife:

1) It all has to fit in the car on the way there.
2) It all has to fit in the car on the way home.

I figure if we're maxed out on 1), that'll save on souvenirs to make sure we can do 2).

To be fair, she does a pretty good job of this, but we took twice as much kids' clothes as we needed last summer.

If I can just remember dress socks, I'll be OK.

11 more weeks. How come it seems like the weeks are now going by slower and slower?
