08 DEC 2007 - 7 Day Eastern Magic Part 3

[JoiseyMom]

Me too! And as far as I know, all the rooms on the ship go to the same ports, so I don't really care where my room is!

Beth

DH keeps making steerage jokes!!

 

[helloemi]

Thats what i was imagining! But as long as i get to castaway cay and get to snokel im a happy cruiser!

 

[megalyce]

So THIS is where everyone is! The *other* board is soooo dead (Beth, you know what I mean!)

Just want to say "hi" to everyone! You will probably recognize me on the ship...I'm the one bent over at the waist running after a giggling 2 year-old shouting "stop licking the TV!"

I finally convinced my df to buy a pair of disney crocs....He kept whining yesterday at DAK that he felt like he was stepping out of them. I kept telling him "when we are on the cruise you will thank me for making you get those!"

DrHug use to ewwww, those are stupid looking. BUT, I got him a pair and convinced him to wear them "just around the house, no one will see" and now he wears them to work every day. Will not wear anything else! He is a pharmacist and stands in one place up to 12 hours, sometimes without a lunch or break, and his feet are a MESS from doing that for years. With these his feet do not hurt at the end of the day. He's a believer!

 

[MrsMork]

I was a bit tired/hungry and miscalculated! Its actually Thursday the eighth. I have a horrible problem on confusing my tuesdays and thursdays!
This is my first cruise and we have both been very busy so we are just glad to get a week off at this point! they can stick me in the boiler room for all i care ( i keep imaging the lowest class of rooms in Titanic).

We ordered our wedding invites today they are SOoooo cute! I will post them in a bit.

Actually they will start at the 30 day mark, I think. But, some folks that are GTY report not getting a room assignment until right up to cruise time, so don't stress if you don't get one by the end of this week.

Welcome!! Glad you decided to come on over! This is a way better place to be!

DF would say "Those are girl shoes!" but then i pointed out that the large and extra large sizes were always sold out, so some men must buy them. But df works at a computer job so he doesnt appreciate the value of a comfy shoe!
I sure do though! I went to cosmetology school and they would get mad at me for wearing my ballet crocs instead of heels for eight hours!

 

[MrsMork]

Emi, that is so fun you get to go tour the resorts! I want to go too! Do they have part time or seasonal jobs where you work.

No, heels for 8 hours on your feet is NOT a good thing.

 

[MrsMork]

I have a bunch of small bubbles left over from a wedding that I can bring for everyone for sailaway. Shall I bring them?

 

[megalyce]

...and not that any of you need Disney gear (it sounds/looks like you all have Disney handled!) but disneyshopping has a ton of great stuff (summer stuff on clearance) and I just got DD a TON of swimsuits for like 4 bucks each!

omg.. you went to culinary school and cosmetology school?? You're my hero! I'm still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up. Looks like you actually started planning on options.

 

[helloemi]

Well if you live in tampa or orlando they do! They offer part time occasionally you have to be lucky to get it.

Here is part of my wedding invite i said i would post, i took a picture from the book on my cell phone so the quality isnt the best.

I graduated from high school a year early so i had extra time to try things out! My dad likes to lovingly joke that he has paid to make me the ideal house wife. I also have an AA in art, but my goal is to either A. work on my diving certifications and work at the living seas, or B. get my BA in Theater and focus set design and makeup (i want to be an imaginear when i grow up)

Emi, destination weddings are the BEST!! DH and I got married on St. Thomas during a cruise in '04. It was amazing and everything was perfect. I wouldn't have done a single thing different (okay, I would have picked someone else to steam my dress...she showed up 10 minutes before the ceremony started...)

Best Wishes!

Oh, and I am a beauty school drop out from many, many (40) years ago!

I've never been in the clubs DH is an early sleeper and doesn't dance.. Plus.. we are not drinkers..

Usually DH would go to bed and myself and DS would play DDR or watch a late night Movie

I'm not a dancer and we only drink the nonalcoholic beverages but the clubs are still great. You'll have to try it at least once.

So according to what i have heard....Tomorow us GTY folks should be getting our room assignments??? Very exciting!

Tomorow for work we are taking a field trip to wdw to check out all of the resorts (the values and the moderates), Im the know-it-all of the class, buts im very excited to see all the room catagories (even suites!)

Off to go make meatloaf!

First one to find their assignment wins the prize!

 

[Cruise]

Emi - I love your invitation. So cute.
