12/09/06 Cruise Continued ~ Pirating Bananas DIS Geekorama Part 2 Part 12

[MrsMork]

While we were shopping yesterday, I saw a Hawaiian shirt for DH. He actually looked at, but then saw the price. $116!!!

OH MY!! I would think not! That much could get you a massage!

 

[MrsMork]

it was 52 this monring...I think the high here is supposed to be 64.....COLD!

We are hoping to get to 52 for a high! If not we may have to put on a sweater! We need to move to Florida!!

 

[lillygator]

am I supposed to be getting a zip or flash drive? Something that transfers or downloads?

Our tree is for our kids. I told Amy that after the first child was growing up, and we did one of those "designer" type trees our first year of marriage. However the ornaments land on the tree, they are beautiful. My only regret is that we do not go out anymore and cut down the tree, and we have a pre-lit white lights one now. I used to love the old big colored lights.

No museum trees when you have kids!

I am proud of myself! This morning I packed up the decoration boxes and took out the things that had been missed. I did hang up a few balls & ornaments on the top part of the tree that was barren but I didn't do it orderly & I didn't change anything that the kids hung. Balls are falling off and breaking since I didn't hang them and pinch the hooks closed around the branches but that isn't going to hurt anything as long as I pick up the pieces before someone steps on them. Thinking about this last night I realized that this is just another bad anal habit that I picked up from my birthmother. This year is the start of something new here!

Hey y'all, stupid question, but are the autograph books for DCL the same as the autograph books for disneyworld?

Thanks!

Kim

There are no DCL autograph books. Just the same ones that they have in the park. Major missed opportunity for DCL to make more $$$ IMO.

 

[lillygator]

anyone know where the deck 2 muster station is? I think when we were down there before we were in one of the theatres.

 

[lbgraves]

Do you know for about 3 minutes I seriouly considered asking IT to write me a program that posts every 40 seconds in the middle of the night so I could get a milestone? I am a CRAZY person!!!!

ACK!!!!!

Naaaa 64 is pretty much t-shirt weather up here...

 

[tynkerbell]

DrHug says yes, it will help with motion sickness, is safe for kids - except those that have asthma - but it will make them very drowsy.

Thanks Angie.

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

My heart just dropped! I saw the mailtruck coming and a larger envelope getting put into the mailbox. Could it be? Docs???I ran outside and sure enough it was from DCL!!!

Hmmmmmmmm addressed to DH so it couldn't be something from the Med.
Tear it open...and...and...just a welcome aboard thing since we booked another room.

I am going to try and get into my doctor today. My left ear and sinus have been blocked up for a week. It is making me crazy! I just hope he can do something about it!

wow!! I was excited there with you for a moment!

they are a lot of kids consignment shops around - even we have one about 1/2 hour away. They really don't give you anything compared to the original value.

All the stuff disappeared that we put at the end of our driveway. Weekends seem to be better for unloading things. YIPPEE!!!

We have consignment shops, but they don't pay you until the stuff has sold. I really have never tried them because it seems like too much hassle...th eonly ones to go would be from Dina and I do have people to pass them down to. They don't really take much in toys.

 

[lbgraves]

You've never gone to the pin cart? The girls had a ball there each night and would plan around it.

No. I just looked at the navs & can tell you why. It is only during early dinner seating. Besides, the kids trade for their pins on the cruise. They will each have 20. I will buy three from the trip...WDW, DCL, & CC...for my own collection but that is it.

DS is mainly interested in lanyard pins. DD collects princess pins.

 

[pyramid2000]

No tinsel at our house either. You shouldn't use it on a live tree because it renders the tree un-recyclable.... (ie can't shred it) Probably because it would a) gum up the machine and b) harm wildlife that may eat it.

I never had a real tree. I think my family used to, but not that I can rememeber.

 

[lillygator]

we don't pin trade although I have an entire stitch set that are fully intended for trading. We buy the ones we like and usually have some sort of meaning to our trips...the F and W fest ones, the Halloween party ones - and let me tell you. We were in line and every person in line before us spent over $200 on the special party pins. (about 9 people).....I was shocked! I know we have spent a ton, DH had to have all the pirate ones...but not that much at a time!

Attn DIS'rs Blue Light Special at the Kliney House.

 

[pyramid2000]

Oh so you are getting that new Halmark DIS series...bananas, armadillos, and bats (complete with squirt function)....I hear if you purchase before Dec 9, you get the Animated bonus figures...the Deck Six Streakers, Run for the Beach, the Wine and Cheese Tour and Mutiny on the Magic!

ROFLMAO!!

 

[bubbasmom99]

Joy, I haven't been online all weekend. How is your DH?

He is doing okay but I definitely think golfing is out.... He says now his wrist hurts... maybe because the swelling is going down and the pain is more prevalent?? Anyway, I'm going to call our doc this morning and get him a follow up. I really hope the ligament isn't torn.

I forgot to help pre-tie his shoes this morning before I left the house, lol... funny how you take 2 hands for granted sometimes.
