Sad day at work as we are having layoffs and they just let go two young ladies in my department. :sad2:

Very sorry to hear that Mary, but with todays economy it is becoming more and more frequent. Hopefully this doesn't put an excessive strain on you or the remaining department workers.
 
Ellen & Mary, those are great pictures!



-30, -11, -3, you guys are making it feel warm here and it was only +4 when I went to work this morning.
 
Okay! I haven't been here for about a week and had many pages to catch up on. Belated :bday: to all those that I have missed.

Ok, I know I am late...but I have been very busy and have just returned to the board a couple of days ago, I have been reading and reading and reading. Wow you all have so much to say. I was one of the lucky ones that got through. I was hoping my DH and I can join the group. We have been on a few cruises before, but never DCL and never a Member cruise... so we are very excited.:banana:

We have a catgory 6 deluxe w/verandah room 6036 Early dinner seating

We did not use our points..I have been spending them to well. :woohoo:
This will be our first member cruise...last Disney cruise I realized that I had to give up and get my knees replaced. At 58, I thought I would breeze through it....WRONG. I had both knees replaced on 11/20. I am finally feeling like I might survive. So, now I should be able to do anything I want on the cruise without pain or fear of falling.

Live here in the northeast...tomorrow is my granddaughter's 4th birthday. She is to be having a party at Hershey's Chocolate World...and it is supposed to snow 6 to 8 inches tomorrow. Cross your fingers and give me som pixie dust that the snow misses us or holds off until her party is over.

Counting down the days. I feel bad about my favorite mouseketeer Chery's passing. Sounds like she had a lot of sorrow in her life, having lost 2 husbands. I wonder if she had any children. She was so pretty...and she and Wally Cleaver made such a cute couple. I can't wait to see who will be sailing with us. Susan
I am looking forward to the 2009 Members Cruise. I will be sailing with my stepdaughter, her husband, and my two grandsons. My stepdaughter, my oldest grandson, and I went on a Disney cruise several years ago, but this will be our first Members Cruise. We are all looking forward to it. Mike

:welcome: aboard! We're all going to have a great time on this SSMC! This will be our 3rd SSMC and 1 DCL that DH won!

Thanks to all of you that gave me best wishes and said hi.
I need this trip to wdw so bad, I am really getting burnt out here in CT. Work has been stressfull, Weather has been stressfull and also family life. My mother and father in law were both admitted to the hospital ... mom home now but dad still in. dad altzheimers in third stage and now needs 24 care.
wdw is the only way i can charge up my batteries to keep on going. so pd as you guys call it get me a long way :wizard: these disney trips are lights at the end of a gloomy tunnel. ...Bruce
Good Morning! Bruce, I feel for you. Thought we were going to lose both of my grandparents over Christmas, Brother-in-Law had brain tumor removed and we just found out that it is brain cancer.

So, :wizard: :wizard: :wizard: to you, and hope you have a wonderful and revitalizing vacation!

:grouphug: and pixiedust: to everyone who could use some. 2008 wasn't a good year for so many people. I can only hope 2009 will be a better year than last! I've had a rough year and a half and need to say that on one of my worst days, DH made me get up, shower and go out to lunch. We went to a local Chinese restaurant and my fortune cookie stated, "Determination will get you through this!" I really needed that message and hope this will help many of you who are going through your own issues.

Sad day at work as we are having layoffs and they just let go two young ladies in my department. :sad2:
Mary - this happened in December at the company I work for and knew and worked with several people who were let go. There were at least 5 people who had worked for the company for over 20 years. I hope that your job is safe!

Okay! I think I'm caught up for now. Oops! Almost forgot to say, congrats to the :bride: and pirate: winners. Have a good night! Annmarie

Good morning everyone - TGIF!

It was a sad day yesterday but today is a new day and life goes on. I've been through layoffs twice. Once back at Sears after 17 years of service and then at my last job after 4 years. The funny thing is I've never quit a job and never been fired...just layed off twice!

This morning our group is having a meeting with the President and Vice-President of the company and then the President and I go to visit a client. I'm safe for now but in this day and age you just never know.

Another bitter cold day today but this should be the last of it for a while. They are saying -17 at O'Hare airport right now. Brrrrrrrrrr!

Should be above 0 by noon. I sure hope so.

Have a good day everyone and stay safe and warm.

Hi Flo :wave2:

I love the photos....I want to be there too. :beach:

Have a great day and stay warm :flower3: :sunny:

Take care.....Monika :daisy:
 
Flo, what's that first picture of? Don't think that's CC?

Mark,

Yes, it is CC. It was by the boats. I took it of the Magic in 2004. We were sitting and having Breakfast on deck. CC is the only beach I do. If you look to the left in the back you will see the inner tubes that they rent.

Yay, its Friday!!!! Still very chilly here in our area. We were at like -11 below with windchill at -29 this morning. But we are supposed to get up to around 16 above zero today. :woohoo: With even warmer temps by this weekend.

Mary - hope your Friday is a better day. I know it is tough out there these days.


And, HAPPY BIRTHDAY KENNA!!!!!

Have a great day everyone!!!

The angle of the picture was fooling me. You'd think for as many times I'd been there I wouldn't have thought otherwise.. :rotfl2:

We've done a few other beaches on the cruises, St. John was great, they had a very clean beach and a nice snorkel trail. We did one in Cozumel that was nice once you got thru the gauntlet of shops. And Atlantis on the 4-day is gorgeous, if a bit expensive.

Mark,

You hit the nail on the head. A picture angle can change Your perspective on the way something looks.

I would like to do Atlantis one day. I hear nothing but good things about it.

Have a good day and stay warm.

We're having a heat wave here in Chicago. Just came in from visiting a client and it was +4 degrees out! :lmao:
