Peter and Jen: What a gorgeous house. Loved the pics, especially those of the "kids"!!

Viking: Travel safely and hopefully everything will work out. You're welcome to stay in NJ if you can't get a flight home.

Jill: I feel your pain. I'm in the process of moving out of a two bedroom apt to a four bedroom house, getting the kids ready to go back to school, working full time, and still caring for my grams.

I'll be easy to spot at the terminal, I'll be the one with the two carry-on bags under my eyes.

However, I know that on 10/2 my new friends will point me in the direction of the nearest shrimp bar and Konk Kooler.

We close on our new smaller home in 2 1/2 weeks. We have to move from a 6-bedroom, 5 bath, LR plus Fam RM and a full finished basement to a 4-bedroom, 3 bath home, no LR, and unfinished basement. The really scary part is that our present home is still not officially on the market since we were waiting to get all the kids out. I don't know where to put everything, especially since the kids don't want me to throw out any of their "stuff". My youngest moved to college this weekend and his older brother returned to LA today. We should begin showings tomorrow which means if DH sees me doing this instead of cleaning, I'm dead meat! Gotta take a break....... I hope we're not carrying 2 homes for too long....that plus the bridge loan.....Momma mia! Don't know which home we'll be living in at the time of the cruise......think I'm gonna choose the "Don't Worry, Be Happy" shirt! Gotta go!

PS...love your house, Peter and Jen! very charming and picturesque......

Sharon,
the New England States and the New York area are already on our To-Do-List, so be careful with invitations - We may accept

Peter,
you saw the 'LOIN KING' I hope this was a typo, or did you really see an X-rated musical?

Maryellen,
I buy a lot of DVDs, we often have very offers in the €5 to 10-range ($6-12) and so I really have a backlog of purchased DVDs, and I also have a DVD-burner

Hi Eric,

Are you watching the predictions coming from the business industry that are predicting US air will be completely bankrupt very soon ... Has the airline said anything to you guys about the problems they are having right now. We will all keep our fingers crossed that this does not affect you guys.

Bette,
please name one major American airline, which is not nearly bancrupt: i.e. American, United & Delta are also on the verge of going down. They're all customers of my company and we feel it every day.
But US Airways just recently joined the Star Alliance, which may bring a lot of synergy effects and help them along.
Additionally we have a law here in the European Union requiring every travel agency to carry insurance against bankruptcy of airlines, hotel, etc to ensure protection of the consumers. Of course in the end the customers pay the premium for that insurance. Sometime next week, when we pick up the tickets at our TA, we will nevertheless ask him - We don't intend to be stranded in the USA.

jeanneg....We also will be moving in the next 6 mo or so. I have been making my family watch the TV show "Clean Sweep". We will be having a yard sale next month and ANYTHING we do not wish to pack up and move to Fl is being sold. I look at it as awonderful opportunity to get rid of anything old or worn out. If I have not looked for it, or needed it in 1 year it's "out'a here"!

When my parents moved out of the home they lived in for 20 years and raised all 8 of their children in, the attic was FULL of the older kids (who had long since moved out) stuff. Mom called everyone and told them there stuff would be thown out or sold unless they came and got it by the time we had the yard sale.Everyone came and pick up the items that were important to them, the rest was sold or tossed! BE STRONG!(If all else fails put the stuff in storage)

Any NASCAR fans? Our driver Mark Martin did pretty well today coming in 2nd!

Happy Birthday to both Mike and Cathy. Enjoy your days with many more healthy and happy ones to come...

Peter: Mr Karaoke is busy working to make up for the time he will not be working when we're on vacation. We decided to go see his parents after the cruise for a couple of days....

Cant wait to see everyone....

Happy birthdays Cathy & Mike. Hope you had great ones.

Love the show Clean Sweep. I've often wondered what the rest of their house looks like.

When my brother got married he left tons of boxes behind. We were cleaning out and I decided that they were going so when they were coming for dinner I had DS put all boxes on the dining room table. (There were about 30 or so). DB walked in and I said clear it so we can eat -- sounds brutual but my DB would never have taken the stuff otherwise. What was funny was that DSIL's parents were coming for dinner and DSIL went to pick them up. Well DSIL wasn't too thrilled and spent an hour crying to her mother about how unfair it was. She didn't get much sympathy though because her mother just said that we should have done it long ago as she had made my DSIL take everything when she got married!

Monday morning and back to work. Before we know it we will be on the Magic.

Happy Birthdays Cathy & Mike!!

I haven't been unable to get into my computer at home since Saturday morning when I tried to install an update from MSN. I have been locked out ever since then. Spent about 4 hours total trying to get thru to MSN. Finally got thru Sunday morning, found out that they had sent me a MSN-9 update when I have MSN-8 & just as the tech support guy was about to tell me how to fix it, the line went dead. Called back again and got a message that they were too busy to answer calls -- just call back later. I couldn't even get put on hold again. So now I have to figure out what to do.

I couldn't wait to get to this board -- especially now that the cruise is getting so close. Being a part of this group makes the cruise even more exciting than it was before. Can't wait to meet everybody!

You Canadians are a tough bunch

Over here we have a saying 'Sometimes it's easier to move to a new house than cleaning out the present one'

Vielen Dank so Eric. Kann nicht warten, um Sie und Anja wieder zu sehen. Hope that bablefish translated that correctly. I am too old and slow to learn a second language. I have a hard enough time with English. Although I am bilingual, I speak English and bad English.

Kathy and I are looking forward to this cruise and meeting friends both old and new. Mike
