Following on the computer theme


My kids love going to the Web, and they keep track of their passwords by writing them on Post-it notes.

I noticed their Disney password was "MickeyMinnieGoofyPluto," and asked why it was so long.

"Because," my son explained, "they say it has to have at least four characters."

Love that one!!!

 

[CustardTart]

Thank you. I am a little scared, as I have never had surgery before. But hopefully everything will be OK.

Awww Abby! I had surgery for the first time a couple of years ago and was horribly nervous. Everything will be OK, I'm sure...

 

[CustardTart]

...A friend and I went "scrapbooking" tonight. Actually we made an appearance, then headed off to a local wings joint for a couple of hours. Not in the mood tonight to be creative, so it was girl talk, drinks, and food.

Now that's my kind of "scrapbooking"...

 

[CustardTart]

Karen, is your name really Karren Brady?

It could be, Joan!!! After sooo many years (eldest DS became interested in football at age 7 so that makes 15 years of it being watched/analysed/discussed) I've absorbed enormous amounts of info and actually become interested myself! I say, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em - tho' a few of my girlfriends say I've just been brainwashed...

 

[PrincessMom2002]

Abby- I have been through several surgeries as well, I'm sure it will be fine. Your "scrapbooking night" sounds great, mine was similiar, my DH went away for the weekend, my DD spent the night at my mom's. so I went shopping with my BFF, didn't get home until 12:45. It was so fun!! Girls Night Out!! Now I do have to work tomorrow for a few hours(upgrading our system) and why I am up still, I'm not sure. I'll probably be so tired tomorrow. Doesn't everyone get a long weekend next week!! I can't wait!

Sounds like a good night Nikki!! My DH will get a long weekend next week (postal worker) but I don't. Do you actually get a day off for MLK day?

 

[PrincessMom2002]

Abby and Kristin, lots of to you both, I'm sure everything will be ok.

Thank you Joan!!!!!!

 

[PrincessMom2002]

Good morning have a good Saturday.

Morning everyone!!! Happy Saturday....

YAY! Have a good one!

 

[PrincessMom2002]

Awww Abby! I had surgery for the first time a couple of years ago and was horribly nervous. Everything will be OK, I'm sure...

Thank you for the confidence and encouragement! It's making me feel better.

Now that's my kind of "scrapbooking"...

The group we go "scrapbooking" with on Friday nights is rather stuffy and dull. They knew what we were up to so I can only imagine what they were saying when we left.

 

[CustardTart]

Thank you for the confidence and encouragement! It's making me feel better...

You're very welcome. Glad to help a little...

...The group we go "scrapbooking" with on Friday nights is rather stuffy and dull. They knew what we were up to so I can only imagine what they were saying when we left.

Oooh, you bad girls - but so very kind of you to give the stuffies something interesting to talk about...!!!

I work at a bank- back office stuff. They shut down for everything!!

 

[nikkistevej]

I went on a scrapbook cruise in November through RCL and their was a group of "stuffies" on that cruise as well. My group was of course the rowdies scrapbooking and drinking at the same time at 4am.

 

[kritter]

Thank you. I am a little scared, as I have never had surgery before. But hopefully everything will be OK.

Abby,

I have a lot of surgeries in my day and each time I am a bit nervous. But I assure you it will all be fine...You just need a ton of rest....And good Dis Friends to keep you feeling better....

So far we are in two Cat 10s. I just had a Cat 10 last week on the Wonder; past two Magic cruises, we had two Cat 6s. Problem is having to get that 2d room (or Cat 4) - really adds up the $$$$! I suspect I will upgrade before then, b/c I REALLY like having the balcony

winnyis-family booked this today along with 2 of my sisters and their families - there will be 12 of us 6 adults and 6 kids ranging from 14 - 6
This will be my 9th cruise.
My group is now up to 14 people - my parents booked last night too. So we are now 8 adults, DD 14, DNephew 13, DS 11, DNeice 9, D Nephew 8 and DNeice 6. got a copy of the 2009 school calendar and no conflict at all - since DD will start High School 2 days AFTER we get back.

Disney Fans
We will be on Deck 7 - one Cat.7 and one Cat.11
we also have Early dine.
we have my mom going also with us.
We have 2 boys one at the time of sailing will be age 6 and the other will be age 9. Wow that is odd saying that since one just turned 5 and the other is still 7.
My DH has been wanting to go on Eastern and it has just never worked out so he is really happy to on this! As we all are.

CTPinkPrincess;Hi everyone! I just booked this cruise - it will be me, DH and DD (who will be 7 at the time)...Aug 15 will be our 11th anniversary. I can't wait for Tortola!

the Dinner for me and my family is the early dinner.
