10/24/2009 Bash on the Boat (I'm with B.O.B.) Thread #21!

[disgrits]

I got some exciting news last night, I am a great-aunt again My niece and her husband have been on the "waiting list" to adopt a baby for almost 3 years now (they have a 7 year old daughter and then they were not able to have another baby after having her). They found out a few months ago that someone had chosen them to be the parents of a baby due the end of March! Of course this happened just after my nieces husband was downsized out of his job so they had a "few extra hoops they've needed to jump through" in order to be allowed to proceed but they got everything worked out My sister called last night and said the baby boy was born yesterday afternoon at 2:45, he was 8#,8oz and those are the only details she had so far, my niece and her husband and their daughter were driving from their home near Chicago to the adoption agency in Indianappolis to pick up the baby. (It was a home delivery with a mid-wife so because the baby wasn't born in a hospital the adoption agency picked him up and they pick the baby up there.) We are waiting to hear about eye and hair color and what name they decide on. My niece has 2 names picked out but wanted to see the baby before she decides on which one, I hope my sister calls me from work when she gets more news. The birth mother has 24 hours to relinquish her rights so we are still hoping and praying she doesn't change her mind about this.

The only problem is that the DVD probably has me and Karen with our skirts blown over our heads. Curses on the wind on Deck 10!

No idea what you're talking about Paige

Come on Joanne, you under estimate the creativity of accounts. Granted we think out the "other" side of the brain from the creative people, but we can come up with stuff sometimes.

To prove it, here is a poem you can use:

They call me Joanne,
I live in Florida,
In the summer
It’s sunny and torrid, uh,

I’m not much for poems,
My state won’t rhyme,
But I’m on the DIS,
Just passing the time.

Speaking of time,
It keeps ticking away;
I’m dreaming of October
And Castaway Cay.​

O.K., it is a little lame and the "uh" is in the wrong spot, but it works.

Way to go Poem Boy

So, what happened to your poem for yourself?

Cruise related stuff!! (Imagine that).
OK, so it’s pretty boring here at work today and I’ve been making a few lists. How about if we all chip in with ideas for packing a bag for Castaway Cay/Excursions??

I’ll start:

Beach bag
Towels
Sunscreen
Ziploc bags for wet swim suits
Swim Suits
Swim Suit cover up
Water Shoes
Hat/Cap
Sunglasses
Snorkel equipment
Book/Magazine
Pen & Paper
Camera/Camcorder
Leave in Conditioner
Tylenol/Water Bottle
Wet Wipes
Deoderant/Anti Perspirant
Under garments
Baby Powder...amazing stuff to get sand off your feet!

I’m sure I’m forgetting a lot, so please copy and paste this post and add on!!! Parents of little one’s, don’t forget to add their stuff.

Good idea Nancy, I did a similar list for my "boarding bag" last year

Yes, we had planned to do that after the cruise anyway, so we kept our ressies for that - now we just have to buy tickets when they go on sale.
