Hey and I am actually working on the updates for AWE (At Worlds End) - Wont be sporting them during the cruise - but have a shrunken head to add to the belts ...a torn scarf - mmmm Oh yeah a sharks tooth for the beads on the bandana as he uses the piece of eight when the Brethren meets (all the main Pirates) to take on the EITC (east india trading company) - Thats when you get to see Kieth Richards as CJS's Father - Teague is his name ..

Sorry I know ...way too much information huh ?????

 

[Jhalkias]

Let me clarify this....

There was a boy in John's neighborhood that was always bragging about how he knew how to put out fires. This boy would tell them to light the ground on fire and he would put it out. So.... John and his buddies would light the ground on fire and watch the kid roll around on it until it was out.
I don't think I need to mention it... but the boy was not all there. ( I know that is not politically correct, sorry).

Thank goodness John has grown out of this phase... it was over 35 years ago....

No secrets on the DIS . . .

(At least when your DW is here)

Why do I always feel like a Tsunami has rolled over me when I am gone for awhile from here? Less than 24 hours away . . . more than 50 pages.

OY!

[lillygator]

is that going to be the last one?

 

[Jhalkias]

That,s not the OBX.... (just looked on Mapquest). Though you were looking more up towards Hatteras or Ocracoke

Ummmm . . . Yes it is . . .

Remember, mapquest is brought to you by the same people that do not think the Mac is a computer!

I don't really know what that is. But last Christmas I got a lot for one of my kids at school. I noticed around November that she was wearing the same thing every time I had her for class. Once I noticed that I would intentionally look for her every day. She always wore the same ole grubby outfit. It was horrible. It broke my heart. I went to the guidance councelor and told her that I wanted to give her a nice Christmas but didn't want her or any of the other kids to know it was me. My DH and I got her a winter coat, gloves, hat, bath and body works shower stuff and lotion, hair ribbons, shampoo, gap sweatshirt, jeans, shirts from Sears and K-mart. I also got her some jogging type pants. I told the lady at Sears what I was doing and she got her manager. He gave me a 40% discount on the total because of what I was doing. Then I got her arts and craft supplies. The police officer who runs our DARE program delivered it to the door on Christmas Eve. He also delivered a food basked with Turkey and all of the trimmings that was put together by my husbands Sunday School class. That way the only people who know what was going on were my family, the guidance councelor, and the cop. She was beaming when we got back from Christmas break. Her regular classroom teacher said she over heard her saying that Jesus must have given her an angel to bring so many things. The other teachers didn't know it was me...I did it for her...KWIM? I overheard her classroom teacher saying it in the lunch room. That will always be a special christmas to me.

I always donate stuff to the Bethany Children's Home...but that is going to a faceless person (I don't know them.) Last year was just different...if that makes any sense!

Sorry for the long post...I just got on a tangent...a feel good one.

I love that story Brandi! Sub for Santa is a program where parents who cannot provide christmas for thier children sign up for a "sub". They are all thoroughly checked out by the program then people who want to help sign up to be a sub for santa. They give me a list of children, thier clothes sizes and favorite colors and there wishes. You can ask for a family that you will meet, but I always ask for one that I will never meet. I think it is probably very hard for them to ask for help, and the director told me it is harder for her to place the families who want no contact, so I always take as many as I can. I just bawl all the way through the store. I am such a baby about kids.

My bed is covered in clothes right now! Guess I really just need to put them in a suitcase and be done with it. I will write down what I am missing. And these are my clothes! I did find some of DH's shorts, but his bathingsuit is shot! Figure I can buy one at Ron Jon's right?

DrHug has 5 bathing suits! Um, do you think we need to take ALL of these? He says "no, just take a couple, if I need another I can buy one." OY. What am I going to do with that shopping man??

And I cannot get him to wear a pair of shorts. Nope, he won't. I have bought him several pair, we always take a few with us and then he will not put them on. He just wears his khaki slacks on the ship.

It's like one of those tear-out magazine subscription cards.

Darn, it's not in mine but I may have torn it out and thrown it away without looking at it... I always do that with magazines.
