Merry Christmas Eve from NC

I just finished transferring all of my photos to my laptop. My one fear is that I have misplaced a CF card. I hope it is at home in Baltimore and not on the ship.

I'll try and post some later.

I hope it is at home too.. Maybe still in a pocket of a suitcase?

Hi, everybody!

I worked all morning.. ick.. I was suppose to be on call for 11 - 4 but at 730 am I received a phone call, is there any way you can work 9 - 2 today? I of course said yes, followed by I have a Viewing to attend tonight so it helps me out alot.. I also took the day off tomorrow "in case" DH decides we are going to the funeral.. For some odd reason, he doesn't really want to go.. Funerals don't really bother him, so I am not too sure what's going through his head right now..

Anyway... I was told to expect tempertures back up in the 50's I really can't stand the cold anymore

Hope ALL are well and enjoyed their Christmas

Sorry, Julie! Merryl--I'm eagerly waiting for the soup picture. Jim says he will post once the soup is posted and he wakes up from his nap, whichever comes first!



I said "Never again" at first, too. I'm one of those people who gets motion sickness everywhere, but had never been sick on the ship before. However, I realized that it really didn't affect my enjoyment of the cruise too much, and it gave me quite a story to tell the veteran sailor at work! We will cruise again, but haven't decided exactly when. We want to take a family cruise, but it's hard to plan with DDIL's fertility treatments and the fact that DS has to set his vacation up in March and it's not changeable. So we're hoping for some positive results in the treatment by March so that we can plan to cruise either before it's too late or after the whole thing is over!

BTW, I'm posting this from the new computer. Set up was a breeze, everything went exactly as I had hoped! I still haven't gotten this new computer hooked up to the household network, but I had to take a minute to stop and post here, right?

Beth

HI ALL! Well we are in total denial that the cruise is over! We have rebooked for Thanksgiving 2009! A LONG WAY OFF! But oh well!

About the motion sickness! - Matt & I wore the motion sickness patches the whole cruise - they work awesome! You change them every 3 days and forget about it. They are prescription only but we will definately do them again. We had one of our kids get really sick Monday but dramamine helped the rest of the trip for them.

You need to adopt me, too, so that we "Jersey Girls" can stay together!

well here is an update on my hubby:

recap: on Friday early am (like 2 am) he had pains so bad we went to the ship dr. and was seen - sent back upstairs, 2 hours later we went back down at 7 am - was there till after 11 am - never got off for castaway cay but his pains got better while he was on percacet - dr. wanted us to get off ship - boat to island and then fly to orlando but we managed to stay on ship till we got in Orlando - we changed plans and did not go to disney instead flew home a day early and went straight to dr. here.

He then sent us on for ultrasound which hubby did yesterday and they have sent us to surgeon ASAP and now he will have his gallbladder removed at 6 am in the morning!

so this was an expierence to say the least. He was to return to Iraq on Saturday but will now be home for 2 more weeks while he recovers.

Thanks to everyone for all the well wishes from before! Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas season.

Krisanne,
Thank goodness he finally got a definite diagnosis before he left the country. It would've been terrible if he'd been ill on that long flight overseas. I hope he has a speedy recovery.

Oh my, Krisann! I too had my gallbladder removed due to attacks, and there is nothing like that pain...I had just had my 2nd c/section and it did not have a patch on the gallbladder pain. The surgery however was a breeze...I hope it turns out the same for your dh. Did they know what it was at least on board? It's not such a big deal if you know what it is and know enough to give really good drugs... Hope he's feeling himself quickly and gets to use some of that two weeks to catch up on the break he missed.

 

[BethC1952]

Krisann:

I'm glad to hear that you finally have a diagnosis of what's wrong with your hubby!

I wish him (and you) well with his surgery and recovery. Hopefully, soon he'll be as good as new!

I am so glad you guys know what is wrong and it's being fixed. Here's to a speedy recovery and the extra time with DH!!
Happy and Healthy NY to you guys!

Krisann, I am so sorry that your long awaited vacation with your hubby ended on a bad note. But I am glad to hear that it turned out OK and that he will soon be on the mend. My DH had a bad gallbladder attack a couple of months before one of our cruises and all I could think of was how awful it would have been if it had happened onboard. I feel for you!

Wishing you and everyone else a Happy and Healthy New Year!

What a way to get to stay home an extra 2 weeks..
I'm glad he will be with you as he recovers.. and I'm glad it was caught now, here and not back over there..

Blessing for a Speedy Recovery

We laughed so hard when my daughter called us up to tell us that my sister, my nephew and I were in a picture on a dis. thread about the cruise. How much fun was the cruise??? We all (35 of us) are ready to go back. MI is COLD, GRAY, and NASTY!!!

 

[KrisannB]

has anyone put up a cruise report? can you give me the link? I want to read them but I don't have time to figure out who did and who did not because most people do not put dates in their subject line of reports. Thanks in advance.
