11/13/04 Eastern Cruise only We Did It

[adisneymama]

Hi everyone!
This will be very short, we still don't have power and I am using the generator to post this.

My house didn't have any damage, we had limbs down and debris but that is all except for the loss of power. It is very hot, in the 90's before adding the heat index.

My moms trailer had some roof damage, not really that safe to stay there, but she can't get a hotel room. They are all booked. She lives just north of where the storm went in.

My grandparents had no damage, just limbs and debris,

My inlaws home in Mobile had minor damage and limbs. The house on Dauphin Island has 3 ft of water in it. It will have to be gutted. It will be a long process to rebuild.

None of them have power....

Ok, as I was posting....MY POWER IS ON!!!!!!

I'll check in later!

 

[KyCruisinSusan]

Debbie,

Glad to hear that you and your family are all fine.

Ivan was truely terrible, but remember, things can always be replaced, people can't.

Hope none of this interferes with your vacation in 1 month, 3 weeks, and 5 days.

 

[adisneymama]

NO WAY JOSE!

We will be on that cruise! AH, the wonders of power!

Hope you all have a good Friday! I'll check back soon.

 

[disbigkid]

adisneymama, so glad to read that you and your family are well! I've been thru a broken water pipe on the first floor so I can only imagine what you're facing. We wish you the best in the process ahead.

Only 55 days to cruisin' though!

John,

Thanks so much for the offer. I personally was just over excited and cranked 'em out while the kiddies napped the other day before I read your post. That's so nice of you!!

 

[Hannosmom]

So glad you all are safe adisneymama!

 

[coriedorie]

I just watched the 11:00 news and saw all the damage caused by Ivan and am so glad you and your family are all okey, adisneymama. Corie

ENJOY your weekend

 

[adisneymama]

Good Morning!

Hope you all have a great day! I'll check back in later.

Thanks for all the well wishes.

 

[cjsmom97]

Hey guys, just checking in... glad to hear everyone seems to be ok during all this weather everyone is having. Welcome to any of you I have missed. You would think the OC ones in our group would be packing and repacking instead of all this posting that keeps going on. I am starting to fall behind. I can't believe it. Hope everyone in harms way stays safe!!

 

[KYCruiseCrazy]

good morning Disney Cruise Line LOL
ok i need everyone to check out page 1 to see if you and your family are on my list. im making door signs and im loving every minute of it. i can't wait to be giving all my fellow DISers there door signs. heck if i have to ill put them on the doors or give them at the DIS meet. great to know all is ok in L.A. (lower alabama). lets keep up the great support for each other and give a helping hand when needed. enjoy everyday with your familys.

 

[adisneymama]

John, It was so funny seeing you put LA in your post. How did you know that is what we say in "these here parts"? LOL
And yes, we are listed on the front, thanks!
Have a great day everyone!

 

[house_of_princesses]

My oh my, you people have been busy!! I don't read for a day or two and there's more here to read than in War and Peace!

Welcome Aboard to all our latest ship mates.

We have been continuously praying for those Ivan touched. Happy to hear our little group down south is ok.

I want you all to know I went shopping yesterday. My dd's will be well dressed for the cruise now. (I'm sure some of you are breathing sighs of relief!)

Still have to find some formals, have some alterations done, etc. But I'm now starting to think about this!

 

[KyCruisinSusan]

Vicki, if you need to find formals for the girls check out this website from ebay.http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.d...erid=butterflyxc&sort=3&rows=50&since=-1&rd=1

They have some beautiful dresses here and they are not auctions. They are buy nows.

Just ask Sarah how pretty her new formal dress is. (I sent Linda to the website also)

This is where I found dresses for Denise and Rachel, and you can't beat the prices with a stick.

Happy shopping.

Love the list of who's on first, John!!

Susan, thanks for the site...will peruse shortly. I won't even tell you the great deal I got on Zib's dress!! Nothing on that site will come close!

 

[adisneymama]

I got a dress for Aubrey on sale at the local mall for $13.76 after tax. It isn't a true "formal" but she can wear it again for Easter. I am debating on wether or not to let her wear her Cinderella costume for formal night since she is only 2. Any thoughts or suggestions on that one?

she is 2 let her look like a princess

 

[KyCruisinSusan]

Would love to see your precious little Cinder Aubrey Ella at dinner.

Or dress her like that for the Princess Autograph session. She will get lots of attention from the "real" Cinderella
