well I am leaving at 4 today.....and heading to FedEx, I hope they will tell me my box can get to PC by Friday.

 

[lillygator]

I am not sure about chat....it gets me sucked into sitting at the PC for a few hours. I need to be doing laundry and finializing the packing and spend some time with the dear family of course.

That is my Mom's dog, Betsy! She is the sweetest thing and she loves to catch the Frisbee.

You might want to put Family before Friends on your shirt or they might get jealous of us!!!

I should be doing other stuff right now but I do have my last load of laundry in the dryer. Tonight I should have all the clothes available to pack!

DH had skin cancer removed from his forehead about a year ago. I don't recall him looking like frankenstein for too long so I'm sure you'll look fine by the time we sail.

Were they able to get it all out? No radiation needed?

Nope! I have had it before, so we just watch carefully and take them out lickity split. No long term problems. It really is cake to take care of, I just wish they would not use Black Stitches.

we also had a dog that looks very much like your moms dog, Ebony. she was 12 when we had to put her down. she had epilepsy and was in a considerable amount of pain. it was so hard but we knew it was time. I just love minature poodle and minature poodle mixes.

I wish that I would wake up in the morning and my sinus issue would be gone. I dread the next step...I dread it because I have no idea what it is!

Don't ask. Really. But I will tell you you cannot blow your nose for 2 weeks!

I told DD we would have to clean the house before we leave because I like to come home to a clean house. She said "well that shouldn't take long" I said no, this time I mean actually get out the cleaning products and CLEAN the house. Oh.

So what will you do first?

The good thing about having the house decorated for Christmas is I clean before putting everything out. Of course the clutter around here due to the cruise packing is beyond crazy!

Sinus surgery? I have heard about that! I decided that my sinuses could never bother me bad enough to go through that!

While I was fitting 2 kids in with me in a restroom stall at the gas station during the long drive, DH took the time to notice the cool sky and grabbed the camera. This was somewhere in western Maryland, near Frostburg, I think.

That is breathtaking!

 

[lbgraves]

Ummm. No actual curly hair in this house. Gotta love the power of the bendy curlers.

Along with what else on the hair to make them look like that?

And this one has an odd glare spot, but since he is saluting John1, I had to share:

Form first day, call next morning, settled that afternoon.

Ok someone said they would tell me the secrets of rebooking an already booked trip. We have already paid $1000 of the $2100 for next year's cruise. As of right now, the cruise price has dropped $80, so rebookin would work well( %10 discount and room credit), but does the orginial $1000 just get moved or does it get refunded to CC and I put a new deposit down? This will factor into my spending plans.

so we have to come up with a reunion date...I am game for 08 but that too depends on what they are doing in the summer.

I still love Amy's idea of a girl's trip to WDW.

 

[DSharpe]

We have to do one of those when we get back.

Someone save me from having to ask the wacko teacher...what is the low down on diorama rules....what exactly am I supposed to do ....something in a shoe box, right?!

my oldest has one due before we leave, but today the teacher said he could turn it in after christmas break - i told him to go ahead and finish it this weekend because 1/2 of it is done, and he will be gone for a week over break.

yes, it's a shoebox turned on it's side and inside depicts whatever the subject is - doug's is a jousting knight - kendell just did one last week of an ocean habitat
