[MrsMork]

Good Angie. Way to swoop in for the kill

And I did not even know it until 8 hours later! My mom arrived just as I was posting that. Had to run, then made dinner and a few pies.

2 weeks from tomorrow we'll be flying out to Florida!!!!!!

Two weeks from right now we will be sleeping in a hotel somewhere near the GA border on our way to WDW!!!

 

[lbgraves]

Hello there Dody & Angie!

 

[MrsMork]

Just checking in. I cannot keep up with all of these pages!!! I just check up on ya'll every now and then. Am I the only one who is beginning to FREAK OUT a little bit? This trip is 'neaking up on me! I need to get my formal dress hemmed, find dress shoes for DS, etc. and do Thanksgiving, and host a Christmas party all in the next couple of weeks. I take comfort in being a list-maker but holy mackrel! Oh yeah- and I wanted to catch up on sleep too!

There'll be no sleep for the next few weeks. We can sleep after we get back from vacation!

Lisa,

I used to use only the wide hangers, but everything comes back from the dry cleaners on wire hangers. And I have A LOT of dry cleaning. Do you transfer all you clothes over once you get them?

Kim

 

[MrsMork]

Thanks for the info.

That's the plan- I'd like all of this in order so that we aren't held up for a long time in security. I haven't flown since before 9/11 so I'm not too sure what to expect.

You might go check the TSA website. If you don't have any of the forbidden items and what you do have is easy for them to inspect it will go fine. You have to take off your shoes, so wear something that is easy to slip off and on.

 

[MrsMork]

The Officer who's funeral we are going to tomorrow was a great lady. She was in her 70's and never married. People remember her best for her jokes. One of the things she always said was that at her funeral she wanted only female pall bears. She said that no man would take her out when she was alive so didn't want any taking her out when she died! There are only female pall bearers tomorrow!

Sounds like she was a fun lady. Sorry for your loss.

 

[MrsMork]

Ours is more like, Lost...or even Survivor (Outwit, Outscream, Outrun)..

We see ourselves as Married With Children.

Lisa,

Kim

I do iron but I never send anything to the cleaners.

 

[MrsMork]

My loveseat is cleared off!! Previously had four households worth of unmatched socks...and no I did not match them, simply put them in a laundry basket.

I cleared my loveseat off today too! I had various items from Dennis' room that he has been working on mucking out. I simply moved them back into his room.

 

[kimerinc]

Lisa,

I just sent you a proof of the thank you card. Let me know if it is ok.

Thanks!

Kim

 

[MrsMork]

LOL! The record player that I have kept in the garage has an 8 track in it.

We have a big console radio from the early 1950's in our garage....it has a
hi-fi in the bottom of it.

 

[MrsMork]

Angie, would it work better for them if I used post it notes to mark the beginning of each story & who needed to sign it?

You are having the kids take it with them to have it signed rather than an autograph book, right? Or are you thinking Guest Services?? Our "Chipmunk" was at WDW, had us buy the book, kept it, got it signed and several months later mailed it to us. This Chipmunk was a relative though.

 

[MrsMork]

So I can carry on my makeup and stuff but it has to be in a ziploc bag?

Check with TSA on makeup. They said lotions, toothpaste, shampoos etc, but only in 3 oz or less and in a clear quart ziplock bag.

 

[MrsMork]

Todd . . .

Just give Angie some tequilla, and drop your quarters under the table.

John1

Very funny, John1!!

 

[MrsMork]

OMG!!! NO WAY do I want to get on that ship without all of you guys!!! Spending this cruise with you is going to be the best part of the experience. Of course, I would have to deal with my kids if I did NOT get on the ship because you guys didn't show up. You aren't punking me are you? Set me up for a fun filled cruise with crazy people and then we show up & noone else is there?

And in lime green shirts!

 

[lbgraves]

LOL! I am going to try to get some sleep now. This is too exciting to sleep!!!

 

[brack]

No docs!

 

[MrsMork]

Ya know . . .

I was just thinking . . .

What would Todd's wife think if after pirate night about FIFTY pairs of assorted women's panties showed up outside their stateroom???

Watch what you ask for CJS . . .

John1

I can provide the granny panties!!
