Even longer I guess

Sorry about that

 

[TIGGERmetoo]

Uh oh, the thread is playing the numbers game again, switching around posts...

I noticed that too.

I did have 1800 and then the posts changed.

Congrats on the double, Andy!

Are you using internet explorer?

 

[Carmouse10]

Thank you and I am sorry again for stealing it from you. All I was trying to do was get my "daily 20" in.

BTW, this should be # 22 so I am already into bonus territory today

Yup All kinds of torn-up and ripped stuff inside the knee. So I will be having surgery, waiting for the approval so that I can schedule it.

Sorry to hear you need surgery. I'd make the docs do it right away so you have more time to heal before having to walk in the sand at Castaway Cay.

OMG - don't people know it's Friday! Had a girl come in and her direct deposit wasn't in her account. After a long, long, long discussion with her and her bank - her bank had given her the wrong account number.

That deserves a great big OOPS!

Yes, I am at work and we have no apples here, nor any firefox or safari or anything else LOL

Hey Deb! Thanks. Unfortunately, this is worker's compensation so I must wait for them to approve it. Once they issue the approval I will be pressing my doctor to do it immediately.

When he told me the news I actually offered to take him out to lunch that day and then we could stop and take care of it on the way back LOL.

He appreciated the offer but told me I still had to wait for worker's comp...

Yippee!!! What/Where do you want to do/go for breakfast????

I haven't thought that far ahead yet. we usually just do cereal or bananas or granola bars (in the room) for breakfast when we are at WDW. Maybe we can grab a bite At the contemporary...I'll talk to Junior about it.

I know all the cabanas are taken but does anyone know where on the Dream you get on a wait list? I would love to take my 85 year old mom to Castaway Cay to watch her great grandchild play on the beach. We also would need a beach wheelchair, I know they are at Castaway Cay. Thanks

NO PASSION FRUIT NECTAR @ WHOLE FOODS

(curse you passion fruit nectar gods)

WOW, Wally! I sure hope you can find the passion fruit nectar soon. Those "smiley" faces don't look very friendly!

 

[Luckymomoftwo]

Junior - did Debbie make it to the Farmer's Market tonight?

Yep, made it there. But then we did the dumbest thing! We didn't eat at any of the vendors that were set up there...instead, we went to a new little pizza restaurant a block down the street from the farmers market. It was ok...nothing great, but not the worst pizza either. So I think me and the kids will head down there again next week.

Hi Vicki! How are ya? I am hoping that there may be a couple of cabanas available to rent once we get on the ship. That will be a good question to ask when you check in at the port. I was shocked that they were all gone at the 105 day mark. I didn't think they were that popular since the prices are kind of steep. I think they need to build more!

Funny thing just happened...

As I hit send for the message above, my office telephone rang. It was the worker's comp guy calling me. He started out by asking me what I was doing at work. Evidently, the doctor submitted paperwork saying I had a total disability (which means I am not supposed to be working) since the end of June...

I called the doctor and got it cleared up, but you can imagine my surprise that I had been working for approximately two weeks when I could have been sipping on Konk Koolers in my hammock at home!

Did you at least buy some veggie and/or fruit to take home from the Farmer's Market?

No kidding!

Did he say if he would approve your surgery? You gotta get it done so you can play bball w/the boys!

He did not have approval and did not know when to expect it. The positive side it that this all came about due to them conducting the process to get the approval so at least it is moving forward.
