Hi John!
Having fun??
Working???

I was walking the "trade show floor" lots of vendors that want to sell to schools. Lots of schlock giveaways that I picked up for Sophia.

so did we - but what was that reason again Dody?

It's our first cruise and DH said he wants to sit outside every night together staring at all the stars and the ocean. I can't pass up a romantic opportunity like that.

 

[elaineteresa]

any update on DMIL - Lisa?

I hope you are having a relaxing evening.

 

[pjpoohbear]

I am going to put a block on everyone's room so that non of you can upgrade at the port!!!

I think she might have that power too, lol.

John will still be able to catch all spelling errors!

Scratch that last post . . . I have new orders.

Resistance is futile.
(I know, I love saying that, and will overuse it)

I know - I am teasing - it is our first cruise too. Several cruises down the road I'm sure I would be considering down grading too. LOL.

I am looking forward to our Navigator's verandah.

This just can't be a coincidence.


Are we sure they they aren't going to lock us down on deck 6? If anyone hears the sound of large metal gates shutting tightly....RUN!!!!

There are still a few of us who are not on deck 6. Do you think they would really put everyone together? Isn't that like sending the fox to the hen house? CRAZY!

I like the Goo Goo Dolls but I have never really loved them enough to buy much of the music. I think I have one or two songs downloaded.

Currently I am listening to Twilight by Vanessa Carlton.

almost me, get rid of "ton" and add "in" -- WAIT I just gave away my identity!

I love the first WDW stories...WDW is so special to me....I am weird, I cry , to myself, on Main Street....that just is my granddad...as wellas Epcot, so much of his Epcot has changed. But for Samantha's bday we went to Coral Reef. I did well, I still cried (to myself) I have not set foot in there without him and Amber (my sister) left her bunny there, luckily they found it and kept it for us. (long ago)

Part of me still believes he is there somewhere. I never said goodbye. Did not get a chance, cancer does that. He never met my DH nor my girls. He always sat me down no matter my age and asked me "Vanessa, is there anything you need to tell me about?"...I think I was always so worried about pleasing him, I stayed good!!! (well ok, not always)

He and my Gma's love is like Angie and Dennis...they were crazy about each other!

Lisa - I wanted to ask why you eat breakfast at Topsider's and not at the sit down? thanks for the outline of your days by the way.

Hehe... I was thinking the same thing. I'll probably want to cruise a lot more after this one and the only way I'll be able to do that is if I find a cheaper way so these deals will start being really tempting.

 

[MrsMork]

Hello! Has Tavia warned you that your family is linked with the late group for dinner? Are you Leslie or James?

Uh oh! Watch out this late group is the really cool, fun group!!

 

[goofyforlife]

For any last-minute crafters: I have a Jo-Ann "friends & family" 50% off one item coupon that I can forward to your email address if you need it.

me me me......

 

[kimerinc]

That's great!!! Has the upgrade fairy visited anyone yet?

No, but my TA called and left a voice message, which my husband got, that although we were not in a 1 the 2 would be plenty of room. When he came to AZ he told me about the voice mail and I seriously think he thought I was trying to pull something over on him. I mean seriously, don't you think I would tell him about the cost difference before I spent the money? Anyway, same room, I just think she was on crack last monday.

 

[elaineteresa]

Hubby wants to know about gym facilities on the ship?

are there any? are there handball courts or anything like that?

I see there are some aerobics classes - anyone up for doing one with him?

He really wants a climbing wall.

 

[MrsMork]

I am finally able to sit down and (hopefully) relax for a few minutes. I really could use a few laughs so I am praying that you guys were really funny today. It looks like everyone was pretty chatty today so that is usually a good sign.

For you Becka.

 

[DrHug]

I don't have one .... yet. I'm waiting for a PC version

Hi Brack! Hey, I do have the PC version...

 

[MrsMork]

Actually it was pretty good cow rump! One thing I am not sure of is that it really seemed like it needed salt. I never salted a roast before but this one needed it and I didn't know if fresh cow is just lower in sodium than the processed stuff in the grocery store and/or if rump roast is just not as salty?

Can't help you with that one since I always salt my rump!

 

[pjpoohbear]

I'm actually not convinced I would want to get upgraded.

We are on deck 5 - close to so much. It seems like the perfect location. Hubby thinks I'm being silly. and so do Caroline and Kristina.

You can't be upgraded, you are the only DIS peeps around my new room! Don't leave me!

Or in January! In January 2001 it was COLD!!! We have pictures of us in scarves, gloves and our hot chocolate hovered under palm trees! One morning the Weather Channel said is was 37 in Kansas City and 36 in Orlando! We still had a great time but it was chilly!

One of the neatest photos I have seen is Mickey and Goofy walking on a WDW golf course after it had snowed! It was for real.
