11/24/07 We are Better Than Leftovers!!! Nana Head reunion Part 3

[Jaime]

So I just saw on the news that our major retailers are going to adjust there pricing to US prices since we are at par now...they are really big differences...they gave examples of childrens toys at Walmart that were $24.98 here now being adjusted to the US price of $4.98...

I have to go to work

Have a great night everyone!

Shell... be careful with that running. Don't pull a "marie osmond" on us...

I was watching! It was scary! I was thinking, you know she's nearly 50 and not in the best of the shape when she started this... she could have had a heart attack or something!!!

Kathy, Judy, did you hear that? Nearly 50...I'll catch Mel and you make her take it back! Hmm...nearly 50 and not in the best shape...sound like anyone you know here?????? Describes ME to a T!

Welcome SaraBeth & family!

Our DD Jessalyn will be 6 1/2 on the cruise. Maybe our kids can get to know each other and play in the Club!!!

Just saying "Hi"!! Going to go run and then catch up on posts from yesterday & Sunday. . .

Oh -- looking forward to:

Leaving the cold Midwest
Seeing my buddies at the airport & Hyatt MCO party
Seeing the rest of the bunch on Saturday
Eating, drinking, and being merry with my fellow Nanas!

Striking it rich in St. Maarten and making the casino workers smile!

This concerns me with the girls...not sure what to do

Jaime, if we dock at Havensight, the shops within walking distance are the SAME shops in town. Save the trouble and buy there. I always get gold jewelry and perfume their. All the same souvenirs are there, too. MUCH safer.

My buddy Joy lives on island and buys all of her jewelry from Jewels by George there as well...

WELCOME, SarahBeth, to our funny ship of fools!

I'm Robin, sailing with DH Ken, and DD14, Sarah. We're cruising with my best bud Judy (Mickeyworld), her DD13 and DD16 and her friend. Don't be scared off by our silliness and frequent drinking references. Everyone here is just hilarious and some of us have drunk celebrity names. I'm MaryKate, and Judy is my twin, Ashley. I know, it's crazy. I've been on board since August and these guys are really fun.

Shell, I'm sure you'll let her know about our nanahead shirts!

Anyhoo, we're glad to have you on board. And when you see any of us on the ship, you are to say,"My, have you lost weight? You seem to be thinner than you were this morning?"

 

[magicsgirl]

Dawn, your packing is making me jealous! Maybe we should all pack one thing a day until the cruise!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Here's what I'm looking forward to doing:

Meeting you guys, laughing, telling stories, and drinking with you!
The Sailaway and hearing the Magic horn as we pull out of the port!
The views from the verandah each morning while Judy and I have coffee.
Seeing DH sleeping on the verandah throughout the day.
Seeing Sarah enjoying her freedom on the ship...first time in the Stack!
EATING like a pig. Nope, I won't be working out.
Watching Sarah and Rachel order warm cookies and milk every night.
RELAXING and not trying to do everything.
Enjoying the spa!
Hoping we get some good family photos...I hate my fat face!

Mel, what's up...you okay????

 

[magicsgirl]

Nana nana...I'm at the top of the page, for once!

Hey, nanamen...anyone wearing a tux on formal night? I was digging through Ken's ties and found the most perfect Mickey tie with a flim reel on it! Could it get any better???

Okay, this is the only night I'll be home this week and my twin is off being "the gifted teacher" until 8:15...she is a much sought after teacher, but geez...I'm all alone with no drinking buddy. So, having said that, It's almost six o'clock, DH is picking up DD, so who's joining me in a cocktail?

Anyone, Bueller?

 

[magicsgirl]

So, no one's around to notice my 250th post!!!!

Somebody stop me! They have enough clothes for the trip. They don't need anything else...

Six months from now; you'll be justifying the cost of that sweatshirt by saying "Well, he looked so cute and at least now I can give it to the Goodwill.......someone we'll get some use out of it"

I must have said that at 1000 times this weekend. I have the same problem. I KNOW this is why God didn't give me a girl

 

[magicsgirl]

Trust, me...having a girl makes you envision your little one looking so sweet in pink frills. Either you save the best clothes for a special occasion that doesn't come before they grow out of the outfits OR they destroy it. As they get older, they tell you they like it, but won't wear it. Judy and I have backed off buying the girls clothes, but I'd be lying if I told you I didn't. It's that "magazine page" in our minds that makes us try to live the fantasy.

Oh, yeah, does this mean it's happy hour??? I'm waiting...

Yeah... me too...

At least when I buy something for Alex I can say "well and Jackson can wear it too..." But Jackson's the last one so that skeleton sweatshirt will probably end up on a garage sale at some point!!

CONGRATULATIONS ROBIN

Here: Have some

I'd LOVE to join you for a cocktail, but I'm holding out for the cruise...........my drinks consist mostly of protein shakes

Hey!! I wonder what Malibu would taste like in a protein shake?

 

[magicsgirl]

Now, THAT'S the spirit! Pardon the pun....couldn't resist! No kidding, though, I admire you. Rehab's rough, isn't it????

Kathy, glad you saw the shuttle...very cool.

Woo, are you out running?

Mel, did any more family members convert to Hare Krishna or anything???

 

[marriedatdsny1996]

All kidding aside (because I take my drinking seriously ), I was reading about myself in a rag mag ("Why Britney doesn't wear underwear.........") and there was an advertisement for Crystal Light and it listed drink recipes!!!!!

So, I'm thinking about bringing about 50 boxes of Crystal Light Lemonade and switching from Malibu to Vodka..................

 

[marriedatdsny1996]

Yes Mel, share with us. What happended today?
